School Board has busv session Morrow County School dis trict received a land offer for two school sites in the Irrigon area from Sancy Land Co. Monday, May 16. The land owners were offering proper ty for $4,000 per acre within the city limits and $2,750 outside the city limits. No action was taken by the board pending further offers of land by other developers. The district is looking for approximately 20 acres of land for future school sites to be built when growth war rants. The lone school district well will be readied for use due to the city well going dry. Until the well is set up for operation however the school will not be supplied with any lawn irri gation water. Beginning this fall Morrow County High School students will be required to take 4 years of English. Currently the requirement has been for 3 years. The decision was made because the board felt the district was graduating seniors with inadequate Eng lish backgrounds. Contracts for classified em ployees were issued as well as those for extra duty employ ees (coaches). All previous coaching positions were offer ed to the same people filling them this year. Tom Sheer, golf coach; and Charles Lutsch, assistant football coach, resigned from their coaching duties. Sheer also resigned from his Heppner High School teaching position. Other resignations were accepted from Ruby Sheer, Heppner Jr. High and Inez Irwin, Heppner Jr. High. Debbie McCoy was hired as a kindergarten teacher at A.C. Houghton Elementary School at Irrigon. Construction is nearing completion on Heppner's new dental clinic and should soon be ready for its new occupant, Dr. Lee Hazen, who now resides in Portland. The $50,000, four operatory clinic is set to open June 15 and Hazen is now in the process of moving his family to Heppner. Hazen was selected from a list of three dentists who indicated they were interested in moving to Heppner, accord ing to Bob Ewell, director of the Tri-County Health Ser vices Commission. Ewell said the search for a dentist was handled through the Oregon Dental Associa tion. A summary and outlook of the community was sent to all 1976 June graduates of the Oregon Dental School and to all dentists who passed the Oregon Dental Exam. Another of the applicants who ex- Huston visits brother here Woodrow Huston, Fair banks, Alaska, is here visiting his brother, Myron Huston. This is his first trip to Heppner in thirty years.

Ray and Norma French join beef task force Ray and Norma French, of Heppner, have been appointed Morrow County co-chairmen for the Oregon Beef Develop ment Taskforce, according to state chairman Richard Nich ols. The Oregon committee is part of a national organization established to mobilize the nation's cattle producers and feeders to vote 'yes' for the proposed Beef Marketing de velopment program. If ap proved, the program will promote the industry through increased consumer educa tion, research and foreign market development by rais ing between $30 and $40 million per year. More than 80 cattle or ganizations around the coun try have endorsed the pro gram, including the Oregon Cattlemen's Association, Beef Council and CowBelles. Also, many of Oregon's agricultural and commodity groups have expressed approval of the plan. The program will be funded by producers and feeders through investment of 30 cents per $100 of their cattle sales. Under the plan, this amount will automatically be de ducted by the buyer. The funds will be administered by a board of working cattle producers. rvnrr Wei. Pumps by Layne& Bowler Meeting Tomorrow's Agricultural Needs Today.
