JONES' OFFICE SUPPLY 6J M.m TU 2-4401 State Board Irritated By Review SALEM AP -rubers of the state Board of Control W ednesday showed irritation at the state Emergency Board's review of plans and involved in build ing new state buildings. Gov. Mark Hatfield said it seem ed that this action, which the Emergency Board is taking with statutory authority, may be un constitutional. Board members at first consid ered mafjjig a test case out ol approval of working drawings for a girls' dormitory at the School for the Deaf. The Emergency Board, however. made no final decision on t h e plans which were adrd late to its agenda at the last meeting. So Board of Control members backed off. The Board of Control did ap prove the drawings within the scope of authority. - In the meantime, Hatfield said, the board might do some legal re search. Hatfield and Secretary of State Howell Appling Jr. suggested the Emergency Board might be mov ing into areas which the Constitu tion provides for the executive Hatfield told the board that its responsibility for setting up com munity mental health clinics was being delayed because Atty. Gen. Robert Y. Thornton office had not provided a needed legal opin ion. The state Civil Service Commis sion had asked Thornton to say whether an adnQistrgjor for the mental health program Oould be a classified or unclassified posi tion, o The.board instructed J. N. geet, its secretary, to urge Thornton to speed workon this opinion. The board authorized Peel to go ahead and get appraisals to buy $100,000 in property in the Capitol Mall area north of Ur,n Street in Salem. This would leave $115. 000 in the appropriation provided by the legislature to buy Mall property. ifH. e a ' the Bon Bazaaf jf'k.Ci "!.Jr choose cozy, charming little this f J ' to 8ive ,hem tender loving wear Jwn Of soft combeftoanesknit cotton. c LJjL-n CnV-n r asy t0 was'1' shr'nk-res'slant, no ironing needed. lO,t Kimonos.
