Community College Fund Motion Loses; Medford Possibility
Salem !U R) A motion to
reconsider provisions of the
community college bill to take
money for it out of the basic
school support fund rather than
the general fund of the state
failed before the rHouse Educa
tion committee Tuesday.
Rep. William Grenfell Jr., a
Portland Democrat made the mo
tion after noting that the com
munity college program would
be administered by the State
Board of Education rather than
higher education.
Final Action Thurido
Vote on the measure was 6-3
in favor of taking the money
from the general fund as the
committee voted to do last week.
Final action on the bill probably
will be taken Thursday in a
special order of business before
the committee.
The committee decided to' put
a S9U.UU0 limit on trie appropri
ation for the first two years of
the community college program
with a provision for pro-rating
if the funds should prove insuf
ficient or excessive.
Grenfell said three or four
schools might be started during
the first two years of the pro
gram, but that the S90.000 prob
ably would be sufficient.
Several Sitei Listed
Committee Chairman Joe Rog
ers, Independence Democrat, no
ted that it takes a majority of
eight members to pass a bill out
of. the Ways and Means commit
tee and that eight Ways and
Means members were signers of
the community college bill.
Before acting on the bill the
committee will investigate put
ting a limitation on the bonds
community college districts
could issue.
Medford, Grants Pass, Coos
Bay, Hillsboro, Beaverton, As
toria, Oregon City, Pendleton,
Baker and Ontario have been
mentioned as possible sites for
community "colleges if House bill
594 should pass.
Won't Prohibit Sites
The bill would enable any
school district with 500 pupils
in grades 9 to 12 and a $20 mil
lion assessed valuation to start
a community college with ap
proval of the board of education
and a vote of the people.
The committee decided not to
try to prohibit community col
leges in cities where private col
leges were already located on
grounds there would probably
be no conflict between the pri
vate and public schools.
