The class was pleased to learn that the popular music teacher also completed his high school years in 1968.

These in cluded addresses and infor mation from all who replied to reunion letters. The booklets are titled "What Ever Hap pened to the Class of '68?"

SAMPLE SPECIAL ELECTION BALLOT FOR MORROW COUNTY, STATE OF OREGON PRECINCT NO. TO BE HELD Tuesday, August 8, 1978 FROM , 8:00A.M. to 8:00P.M. Mark A Cross (X) Or A Check Mark (s) In The Voting Square After The Word "YES" Or After The Word "NO" For The Answer Voted For. REFERRED TO THE PEOPLE BY THE COUNTY COURT OF MORROW COUNTY, OREGON PROPOSAL : The General Fund budget being voted on in this ballot is $1,867,318 which includes all county budgeted items except the hospital. The resources to balance this budget come from many sources, including federal and state payments and the local property tax levy. $327,509 can be levied this year since it is the 1978-79 tax base, anything additional must be approved by the voters. In this case an additional levy of $246,655 is necessary to balance the budget and provide the level of county services which the Budget Committee has approved. The total property tax levy including the road levy would require $2.20 per thousand of assessed valuation. If this measure is approved, the operating budget to be financed by local taxes will be $315,193 greater than last year.

SAMPLE SPECIAL ELECTION BALLOT FOR PIONEER MEMORIAL HOSPITAL LEVY PRECINCT NO : TO BE HELD Tuesday, August 8, 1978 FROM 8:00A.M. to 3:00P.M.' Mark A Goss (X) Or Check Mark ( ) In The Voting Square After The Word "YES" Or After The Word "NO' For The Answer Voted For. REFERRED TO THE PEOPLE BY THE COUNTY COURT OF MORROW COUNTY, OREGON PROPOSAL: Shall Morrow County be authorized to levy and collect taxes in the sum of $146,598 outside the limitation imposed by Article XI, Section 11, Oregon Constitution, for the fiscal year commenc ing July 1, 1978 and ending June 30, 1979, these said funds to be used to balance the 1978-79 budget for the county-owned Pioneer Memorial Hospital? EXPLANATION OF BALLOT: The budget of the county-owned hospital has, historically, been balanced by a combination of patient revenues and tax levies. In fiscal year 1977-78 only, the hospital operated without any taxes, relying instead on reserve funds which are now depleted. Tax support is necessitated by the fact that patient-generated revenues will not be sufficient to pay escalating costs for supplies, materials, equipment, personnel, improvements dictated by regulatory agencies and cost of physician recruitment and services for Morrow County. The $146,598 tax will require a levy of approximately 42c per thousand assessed valuation and is projected as the minimum necessary to maintain satisfactory inpatient, emergency and nursing-home care services. If this measure is approved the $146,598 will be added to the county's budget, raising it to a total of $2,013,916 and the total county budget to be financed by local taxes would be $461,791 greater than last year.
