Sunday. April 20. 1951 School Bill 'Musi' Active Club Told SIXTEEN MEDFORD (OREGON) MAIL TRIBUNE Pe nne y's a Knr' can cscsnn Passage of the school reorgan lzation bill which will appear on the November ballot "is a must, Dr. William Sampson, Southern Oregon college Instructor, told members of the Medford Active club at a recent meeting. Dr. Sampson stated that no one knows fully what the re organization bill will do, but it is estimated that it would reduce Oregon's 1,000 school districts to between 250 and 300. This would leave most of the elemen tary schools in their present loca tions, but would probably result in consolidation of many of the smaller high schools of th state, he said. The actual decision as to what would be done would be left to local citizens and school offic ials, the SOC professor stated. Dr. Sampson pointed out that a tremendous growth is ahead for Oregon public schools if the state is to care for the large number of children now reach ing school age. He emphasized that more teachers must be trained and more school build Ings constructed In the immedi ate future.
