DUNSMUIR M. Donal Bris-

to a charge of writing a check with
insufficient funds.
William Ealy, owner of the Cor

break in the hose, the break had
been patched with friction tape,
r.nd the tape had worn out, caus
ing the leak to reappear.

A YvcATHER BALLOON was found by Louis Mandros, 443 Vi
Trinity, while hunting last weekend. Mandros said that he was
reluctant to touch the balloon, feeling that it might contain a
bomb of some kind, but when he examined it, he found that
it was a weather bureau observation balloon. The box-like ob
ject he holds in his right hand is a radio-sonde, which contains
a small radio transmitter to send weather data to the ground
station. In his left hand, he holds the paper parachute which
lowers the radio-sonde to the ground after the balloon loses its
gas. Finders are asked to take the radio-sonde units to the near
est post office, so that they can be re-used. -I

School Chiefs
The members of the three school
boards ot Klamath County and the
superintendents of the city and
county schools met last night for
a study of school financing on the
state level. The meeting convened
in County School Superintendent
Carrol Howe's office in the Vet

school superintendents of each
county to call a meeting with
school boards within each county

the school systems because the
