Officials Refute School Report TULE LAKE Two members of the Board of Trustees of (lie Tule- lake Joint Union High School and High School Superintendent J. R Daughenbaugh, on Friday .correct ed a statement issued to the Her ald and News by Mrs. Marie Boyden, clerk of t h e board, in the name of the five-man board of trustees. The statement was printed in Thursday's issue of the newspaper under a Tulclake dateline. The corrected statement by Daughenbaugh, Jack Fcnsler and Lester Turnbaugh, trustees lor two years, follows: "There was no inexplicable increase in the amount budgeted for fuel oil for the next school year." Daughenbaugh stated that the Increase of $1,200 mentioned in the article was for the purpose of- meeting added expenses of op eration incurred by the commu nity services program including a proposed adult evening school, town team basketball and other similar community activities held in the school buildings. It was felt by the superintend ent and members of the former board under whose supervision the initial budget was prepared, that these expenses should not be taken from the general fund of the district but rather from the community services fund which is special fund raised by an override tax in the district. The present board disagreed, with the result that the pro posed community services budget was cut from $6,000 to $3,000 Daughenbaugh said. This was the only major change made in the budget. Other changes merely involved the transfer of funds from the various classifications in the budg et to the undistributed reserve to provide the financial resources for the purchase of the contract of the District Superintendent, J. R Daughenbaugh, should this be nec essary or desirable. The total amount of the budget approved by the board was identi cal with that submitted for its consideration by District Superin tendent Daughenbaugh. The total budget amount af ter changes made necessary by the change in the community serv ices allotment is $224,205, includ ing an undistributed reserve of $21,239, a revolving fund of $3O0! and a general reserve fund of $10,000. The 1962-63 total budget was $223,723.56, including all in come and beginning balance. The statement in tile article printed Thursday in the newspa per, that desired explanations were not made due to the lack of records which were not brought to the meeting by the school official is quite true, Daughenbaugh said. However, it should be made clear that no request was made of the school official by the board, that any records be brought to the Tuesday, July 16, meeting, and no advance notice regarding specific items about which Infor mation was to be desired was furnished prior to the meeting. complete mlormation on any aspect of school affairs is, on file at the school office and is avail able to anyone requesting it, pro viding sufficient notice is given to provide the time to check neces sary records for clear and com plete answers to questions asked.

It is not the function, the school official said, of the county office to prepare the annual budget fori any school district. The services of the Siskiyou County School office are, how ever, available on a consultant basis in any problem in the solu tion of which any school district seeks advice. The above information came from a member of the Siskiyou County Board of Education, Daughenbaugh reported. Investigation of the exact situ ation regarding the driver train ing car provided for district use by Dugan and Most of Klamath Falls, indicated that the commu nication in regard to the driver training car read at the July 16 meeting was based on erroneous information furnished the firm in regard to use of the school car by the district. The misinformation has been corrected, Daughenbaugh said, and use of the training car .in the future is not in jeopardy. A definite future arrangement will eliminate misunderstanding in re gard to use of the car. Members of the present board of trustees of the Tulelake Joint Union High School District include Dave Carman, president; Marie Boyden, clerk: Jack Fensler, Lester Turnbaugh and Robert L. Baker. Former members whose terms expired in 1963 were Eugene Smith. Paul Christy and Don Por terfield.

Burglars Hit Klamath Store The most recent in the rash of burglaries and safe cracking at tempts occurred at the Buy Low Food Store, 1338 Oregon Avenue between 2:10 a.m. "and 2:47 a.m Friday morning, city police re ported.

A squad car patrolling the area arrived on the scene a short time after the culprits made their empty handed eet-a-way. This is the second time this week that burglars tried the floor safe at the market without suc cess. Police feel that tlie same persons are involved in several of the recent break-ins around Klamath Falls. There are no suspects in this case, however. Visit Set BELGRADE (UPD Soviet Premier Nikila S.

The impact of the collision knocked the truck about 30 feet along the highway and hurtled the cycle and its operator 40 feet in another direction. The cyclist, Johnny Allen Cole Box 52, died in the Chiloquin am bulance while being transferred to the Klamath Valley Hospital. police said. The accident developed when the lighting system failed on a pickup truck being driven west bound on Highway 422 by Amory Joseph Bcttles, Box 104, Star Route, Chiloquin. Bettles told police he drove the truck onto the shoulder of the road and then stepped from the vehicle to seek the cause of the electrical failure. Earlier today, Chiloquin Police Chief Max Smith, who assisted state police in their investigation of the accident, said at that point on the road there is a nar row shoulder. As a result, Bet tles' pickup was protruding about a foot and a half onto the high way, Smith said. As Bettles was tinkering with the wiring on his truck he heard a motorcycle approaching and ran out onto the road to wave the cyclist away from the stalled vehicle. When it became appar ent that he had not been ob served by the cyclist. Bettles darted into the cab of the pickup and moments later the collision occurred, police said. Cole was the son of Mr. and Mrs. Edward Cole of Chiloquin.

Kusler, district freight agent of the railroad. Tlie possibility that a man be came buried under the wreckage of 21 freight cars which ganged up and were whiplashed into a field when a faulty wheel bear ing on a boxcar caused the de railment was suggested by Wil bur Richardson. 44, of Alturas. Richardson was one of three men who had been riding in a freight car of the train at the time of the accident. Injured during the derailment, Richard son was taken to the Klamath Valley Hospital where he was examined for possible back in juries and later released. But before being transferred to the hospital, he told trainmen at the scene of the accident that one of his companions did not leave the wreckage. Richardson, who said he was a jockey en route to Washington, stated he observed his other companion walking along the tracks away from the demolished cars. An immediate search for the missing rider by trainmen and the California Highway Patrol was unsuccessful, as have been subsequent searches, Kusler lid. Southern Pacific employes de tailed to the derailed train were riding at either the rear of the train or in the locomotive at the time of the accident and were not injured. Kusler remarked that in view Migrant Labor Camps Improve SALEM (UPD Sanitation at farm migrant labor camps has "improved tremendously" this year, a State' Bureau of Labor spokesman said today. A. W. Gardner, whose division inspects the farm labor camps praised farmers for their coopcra lion in the sanitation efforts. He reported that many of the older camps have been brought up to state standards and that a num ber of new camps have been built which exceed state law require merits. Virtually all of the camps in spected so far have been up to state requirements, he reported. The biggest problem remaining is use of a common drinking cup. Gardner said. He said migrant workers must be taught not to use the same cup in drinking water.

Budget erm ECCLES 606 S. School Board Stands By Transfer Act The Klamath County School Dis trict Board of Directors Thursday decided not to reconsider its de cision to transfer Art Mallard, Peterson Elementary School prin cipal, to Chiloquin Elementary School. The directors made their deci sion to transfer Mallard at their regular meeting in June. Since that decision was made many Peterson area residents and teachers petitioned the board to retain the principal in his present post. About 60 of those residents at tended Thursday's meeting and asked the board to reconsider its decision. Among the speakers sup porting Mallard were Peterson area residents, the Rev. Laing Sibbet; Lyle Smith, county sur veyor; George Wardell, KFPA, and Winstun Kurth, Peterson PTA vice president. The speakers, in general, indicated they were well satisfied with Mallard's work at the school. Parents of Peterson children asked the board to make public grievances against the principal, but the board in dicated it would hold to the prece dent that personnel problems wouldn't be discussed in public. The board instead retired tn executive session and discussed the problem with a committee of Peterson PTA members. It was at this session that the board re confirmed its decision. - In other board business the di rectors elected Paul Fairclo chair man for the new school year and B. M. Antle was chosen as vice chairman. The directors authorized archi tects Morrison, Howard and Star buck to proceed with plans for a new county high school to be constructed at the Henley site. It was agreed that the building would be constructed in units to ultimately house 1.200 students. The first unit will be built to handle 300 students. Plans are to start construction on the primary unit early next spring.
