Keith Ilockcr - -.-.!, r d.-u x?a , Bran;nrjeld said thoy recoc- nized that the proposed sal ary increase, which was orig inally approved by the school board over objections by the superintendent, was causing ! snmp ennfrrn. and resulted in undue criticism against the superintendent Instead of the board, wTiere the responsibil ity rested. Taking this into considera tion, they believed that some reduction in salary should be considered, since the super intendent said he believed it desirable and insisted. Of the total buGgel reduc tion, the superintendent's sal ary was lowered from S18.000 a year to $16,800, which is less than the board had offer ed to pay during the present year. He insisted. However, that his salary not be in creased this year as the board had proposed. Another focal point about which some voters apparently objected was the travel ex pense for the administration. This item also was reduced from $720 to S600 for the superintendent and from $480 to $360 for one of the assist ant superintendents. PILLS Km.

Of the total reduction. , $2,039 was trimmed from t three areas of the program, These are S624 from the Sat- ' nrHnv reereatinn nriisram for students; $315 from the sum mer recreational program in Jacksonville and Lone Pine; and SI. 1000 from the physical education program. The summer recreational ( polling places within Rled program within Medford had ford, since members had re been assumed by the city, but I ccived many complaints about at one time was conducted by the school district. Since there was no program for the Lone Pine and Jacksonville areas, the district planned the program eliminated in the budget reductions. Costs of operating district school buses to carry students to swimming pools and bowl ing alleys were eliminated. Since the district docs not have facilities for swimming and bowling, which had been it part of the physical educa tion program, the board felt this item could be eliminated without jeopardizing the over all academic program. $19,240 Reduced MFW Ccair-r. o. s. savm&s oonos issued on or after 0UN6 1, 1959 EARN WHEN HELD TO MATURITY, The katuritv period is SHORTENED TO 7 VEAR5 AND 9 MONTHS - SO NOW SOU i3T BACK 4FOR EVERY 3 INVESTED 14 MONTHS SOONER !, THAU evtR BFOKl l, f i m m m I i t I t I I I 1 0 A.M. to 9:30 P.A, Ovr Tqwtf 3 A total of $19,240 was re - duti-d fujm oliier areas in tne nmn,eH hllHonl V,I,t thav- were not eliminated s i n c e ; many of the items will appear , on .exi years ouogei or inai 1 nf ho voar after TK riarliip. . -.. .. tion in the items resulted from ! postponing purchases, repairs. f renovation and improvements, : The items are S5. 200. which was planned for playground i CIIU gllJUIIUS UL Vf IOJlliei 1 1 dl i all 17 schools; $4,000 from al maintenance ana custoaiai man; S900, refinishing desks ! nh.. .hi t,,..i.u.

The action reducing the budget and setting another election date were followed by other action stemming from last election day reports. More Polling Places The board authorized more the length of time it took to obtain a ballot, mark it, and return it to the ballot box. In some instances, residents had to wait more than 30 to 40 minutes during the rush hour.1 Some residents suggested that polling places be open longer hours, but state iaw regulates the time during which polls can be open for school elections to between 2 and 8 p.m. Polling places will be added ; at West Side school and Wil son school in the May 26 elec-; tion, and an additional board J will be added at both Hedrick ' and McLoughlin Junior High schools, bringing the number of boards at each school to three. The board also asked that additional ballot marking booths or locations be estab lished at each of the junior high school locations. Thorough Study The school board was unani mous in asking that a thor ough study be made of a new tax base fro the district to help clarify misconceptions about the 6 per cent limitation which were apparent in last Monday's election.

Each year since 1946 Medford district patrons navel been asked to approve an I amount over the 6 per cent limitation. Legislation approved in 1916 established that budgets for political subdivisions -and! the school district is a politi cal subdivision of the stale -can be approved wthout going t othe voters if it does not ex ceed the previous year's budg et by more than 6 per cent. If it exceeds more than that, approval of the voters is necessary. The tax base in the Med ford district for next year is estimated at $541,125, and any amount over that (because that is the limit the district has with a 6 per cent increase over this year's base) has to be approved by the voters. ft is that base about which the board asked that a thor ough study be made with the HEAR in Now, hear twice as well-WITH BOTH EARS!
