Excessive Absences Here
Proving To Be Major
Problem for School Officials
A major problem facing the
Board of Directors Administra­
tive School District No 129J is
that excessive student absences.
It is felt that the absence pro­
blem is critical enough to war­
rant definite action. Ih has been
pointed out that the excessive
absences of students from the
regular schedule program re­
presents a serious financial loss
to the district.
The District provides the op­
portunity for quality education.
This is done at considerable
cost to the tax payers of theI
area. They have a right to ex- i
pect students to be in school to I
take advantage of the opportun-:
ity thus provided.
In view of these facts the |
Board of Directors, Administra­
tive School District No. 129J
recognizing the importance of
regular attendance hereby es­
tablish the following policy re­
garding excessive absences
Excused absences shall be in­
terpreted to include only cases
caused by illness of the student I
or serious illness or death in
the student's immediate family.
It is recognized that students
may on occasions be required
to be absent from school for
seasons other than those above
outlined. Such absences are not
excused in terms of the before
mentioned policy, however, in
cases of necessity, arrange­
ments may be made with the
school principal and instructors
concerned in advance for mak­
ing up work missed. Thiss will
be taken to include students
working for short periods of
time.
Students missing more than 15
days per semester or 25 days
in a given school year will be
denied credit for courses taken
during said semester. Students
falling in this catagory will be
required to appear before the
Board of Directors with their

Wolverines Win
From Sheridan,
Score 60 to 42
The Wolverines came out from
a slow start to a smashing vic­
tory over Sheridan tn a Tues­
day night game at that school.
Final score was Wolverines 60
and Sheridan 42.
This was a non-league game,
according to Coach Burt Bor­
oughs who also said there were
a number of new rules this year
that slows down the game some.
Scoring for Santiam were Po-
drabsky 22; Cannon, 4; Mar­
shall, 14; Cline, 10; Sheythe. 10;
Ohmart. 6; Meuser, 2. A number
of team members played a good
game but failed to score.

Jaycees Have
Busy Season
Maynard Smith, president at
the Mill City Jaycees reported
this week that the organization
had been very active recently
and the last two meetings had
100% turnout.
The club has been busy work­
ing on their clubhouse as well
as their Community Recreation
Center. Bob Carson heads the
recreation area committee and
Warren Coffin and Verne Snaw

Smi‘h said that members who

chart in the meeting hall. This
award will be presented at the
Installation banquet in April.

by Gary Lieuallen, has been
doing a good job of getting the
flags out at all business houses
on designated days. They added
a black streamer to the flags

for President Kennedy as the
Jaycee flags, due to pole con­
struction cannot fly at half
