Mekvold today ex plained the procedures which have led up to the public hearing on the proposed join ing of the Medford and Phoe nix school districts. The plan for transfer of property in the Barnett rd. area was denied following the hearing on Sept. 13, he said. Following this the board pub licized and called a prelimin ary hearing on Oct. 29 on the proposal to join the two dis tricts, the earliest date such a hearing could be held. This date would enable the rural boards to get the plan to the state board of education for its Nov. 1 and 2 meeting. It was during the planning that Dennis Patch, director of school district reorganization, requested a copy of the plan so he might have the neces sary information to prepare the agenda for the state board. Postponed Hearing When it was learned the Medford board could not be present on Oct. 29, arrange ments were made to postpone the hearing until Nov. 8 upon agreement from the Thoenix board. The preliminary hearing Is not required under the re vised procedures, but the rural board acting on recom mendations of the stale de partment of education con sulted with the attorney gen eral's office and decided to put in the extra step of the preliminary hearing to give the people two opportunities to have "their day in court." The plan will be presented in detail so they will have full opportunity to prepare for the 3 Hafs in One I Just smock on reverse side - anyone can make these glamour hats of velveteen.

Legally All Right The state board did consid er the plan on Nov. 2 and found It met all legal require ments. It will send the plan back to the rural board for further action under the re organization law.
