Correction The Gazette-Times incorrectly reported the results of the second vote concerning the Morrow County School District budget at thé district meeting pu February 14. Six members, not five approved $992,000 in cuts to the district budget. Approving the cuts were Gary Fredenckson, Dwayne Carroll, John Rietmann, Pat McNamee, Julie Weikel and Keith Lewis. Only Barney Lindsay voted against the cuts. The G-T story stated that Lewis also voted against the cuts. In the first vote concerning the budget, Lewis and Lindsay voted in favor of an amended proposal which would have reduced the cuts to $692,000 to retain teaching staff, targeted administration and administration's use of district vehicles to cut expenses. The proposal also recommended that the budget committee meet with board members and advisory members prior to a vote on the CUtS._____________________ i' V Copies 10( Qazette-Tunes 676-9228 ) The Heppner Mustang girls lost a district playoff game against Pilot Rock by 10 points Monday, Feb. 22, in Hermiston.
