No reductions in the academic program werei made, he .stressed. Several items in the pro posed budget have been in creased, primarily because of the increased number of stu dents at all grade levels, high er costs of equipment, teach ing supplies and more recent ly added funds to purchase several capital outlay items, the use of which would be spread over future years.. Dr. West pointed out that two new 79-passenger busses, text books and furniture are included in this year's budg et as a result of the recent consolidation of Jacksonville, Griffin Creek, Lone Pine, Howard and Ruch districts with Medford. He pointed out, however, that many budget, items were reduced because of consolida tion. However,, necessary ma jor increases in other areas offset the reductions. The proposed budget is de termined on the basis of ex isting state and county finan cial support formulas. If the legislature should increase state funds to maintain 38 per cent state aid for school operation, local property will be relieved of several mills levy, Dr. West noted, : The estimated millage, bas ed on budget figures as of May 1, with an assessed valu ation of $45 million, would be 59.8 during the 1959-60 year, compared to 46.8 for the pres ent year based on the same figures, Dr. West said. The increase , is 13 mills, or 27.7 per cent, he noted. HOTEL MEDFORD II U lbs. LlfcUrUnU i CI 2' n STARTING TODAY A GREAT DOUBLE BILL! AT REGULAR PRICES Ir-v- BY DAY - a great lady of the court!

The proposed budget does not include funds for future classroom needs. Frank Bash, chairman of the school board, said the board has authorized school administrators to study class room and building needs in the district for both immed iate and long-range purposes. The school board has sched uled a series of meetings, with board members of former dis tricts at which time the pro posed 1959-60 budget will be discussed and explained.
