VanLeuween said there were 112 signatures on the petition. ; ... .,. One of the reasons given for not wanting the children to attend Tiller was that they would miss out on their 4-H work and Bible study after school hours. Another reason was the long ride on the bus. The strongest argument for the change was that since both schools are now one district, all pupils should have-equal advantages. And this change is-the most economical way to accomplish the purpose. Charles Porter stated that although the change wasn't vital at present, it is a move to have a more efficient school program in the future. A vote of those present was taken. There were 34 against the change, 19 for it, and 3 undecided. .
