Young & Morgan Officers for Lions Club and Auxiliary Installed Monday High Bidders At Timber Sale Track Meet Ranger Station Issues Report on Former Doctor Here Passes Away May 10 Detroit Graduation Set for Friday Detroit Graders Pioneer Picnic To Be Held In June Slated for Mon. May 27 The legai voteri of Adminis- trative District No. 129-J at Linn-Marion counties are re minded that a school meeting of the recently formed new dis trict will be held at santi am Union High school on thè 23rd day of May for the purpose of discussing the budget. Time of the meeting will be 8 p m. An election will be held Mon day, May 27 from 2 until 8 p. m. at the Gates elementary school and the Mill City Ele mentary school when the pro posed budget will be submitted for vote. The budget committee is composed of the new adminis trative school board members plus five freeholders. Board members are Don Walker, chairman; Bill Pennick, vice chairman; Homer William ston, Martin Hansen and Don ald Westrick. Freeholders are Bob Oliver, chairman; Verne Shaw, secre tary; Arthur Hem peck, Jose phine Reid and Charlene Coop er Tentative budgets were sub mitted by the present adminis trators, George Stovall, Larry Brent and Bill Gleason. These budgets were reviewed and co ordinated to fit the needs of the new district. Present for the budget session was William Lewellen, recently appointed administrator for the new dis trict. While budget figures are somewhat higher than last year the tax levy is actually expect ed to be lower. One reason for this is the fact that more money is expected this year from the Rural School fund than in any previous year. The budget for the reorganiz ed district is considerably less than it would have been under the three separate districts. The budget committee figured that there would be $35,000 cash on hand at the close of this fiscal year which will also be of considerable benefit taxwise. Baccalaureate Service Held Sun Baccalaureate services were held Sunday at the Mill City grade school for the seniors of the class of 1963 of Santiam Union High school. Processional and recessional marches were played by John Kelly. The Christian church choir, under the direction of Mrs. Doris Davenport sang several hymns.
