Printer David and April Hilton-Sykes, Publishers Letter to the Editor - Taxpayers can't afford construction To the Editor The voters of Morrow Coun ty wisely rejected the $15.5 million school bond measure; the same one they defeated last year. After that election some of the school board members wanted to down size the measure before resubmitting it to the voters for reconsidera tion, but one of the board members was reported in the newspaper to have said something similar to “ no way, let's shove it to them again” which they did. Well, the voters shoved it back to the board, hopefully for a more realistic proposal. We taxpayers can't afford, nor do we want to pay for any more gymnasiums, conference rooms or media centers, what ever they are? The school superintendent said the enrollment this year is about the same as last year, so why is he asking for so many new classrooms? (s) Ronald W.
