The formula was tabled In October to give superintendents an opportunity to discuss the plan with the board. Atty. Gen. Robert ,Y. Thorn ton has ruled public school dis tricts, in making basic claims, may include the average daily membership of nonpublic pupils attending public schools on a part time basis. Thornton also recommended that the board adopt rules and regulations governing computa tion of shared time in distribu ting the basic money. Also on the agenda is a par tial plan for school district re organization in Douglas County. The proposal uould establish administrative school district 19, made up of school district 8 Canyonviile, and school district 19-Myrtle Creek. The controversial Polk-Yamhill reorganization plan also is before the board again. Yamhill County officials have rejected the proposed reorganization, and suggested an arbitration board be established. Other items up for action in clude: Requests from local school districts for supplemental funds to pay for hiring substitutes for teachers attending work shops. Schools requesting sup plemental funds are Lane Coun ty district 52-Bethel. Jackson County district SWC-XIedford. and Clackamas County district 1'Ho-Milv.aukie.

SKI SEASON OPENS Ted Swan, left, ski instructor, and Dave Peterson, head of the Mt. Shasta Ski Bowl ski school, assess the early snow pack which opened the bowl to winter sports enthusiasts in mid-November. This marks the earliest skiing season since the bowl was es tablished. New Head Of Ski School Likes Mt. Shasta Slopes for top skiing because of the physical structure of the bowl." He said last year's policies will continue in that all ski in structors, lift and tow operators will be qualified to administer first aid. The ski patrol pro gram will continue to insure bowl safety and as far as pos sible ski instruction will be on a personalized basis. Peterson said he started ski ing 10 years ago after complet ing naval service. Two weeks after his first chairlift ride, he started giving ski lessons at Mammoth Mountain under the direction of Hans Jeorg. veter an ski instructor and interna nationally known ski figure. He has alternated college and ski instruction ever since, teaching at Mammoth Mountain, Reno Ski Bowl, Snow Valley and Chi na Peak. MT. SHASTA SKI BOWL "I like this mountain" is the com ment of David Peterson, who is getting acquainted with the ski slopes of Mt. Shasta after arriving a week ago to head the bowl's ski school. Peterson, who holds a mas ter's degree in psychology and has been doing graduate work at the University of California for the past two years, said he feels "at home" in accepting this new assignment. He expressed enthusiasm for developing the new ski school area at the bowl which will have its own rope tow. This new area is a gently sloping ex panse to the north of the lodge and chairlift, away from the heavy skiing traffic of the bowl proper. Thanksgiving Day was Peter son's first big day and the pace picked up for the remainder of the weekend when hordes of winter sports enthusiasts poured into the bowl to enjoy the four foot snow depths, the earliest skiing since the bowl opened. Peterson said he is still com pleting his full-time staff of in structors but hopes to have the roster complete by Dec. 14, when the bowl shifts from week end to full week operation. He expects to have a full-time staff of five plus a weekend pool of five more instructors. Professional ski instruction is a real enthusiasm of Peterson. "The average skier can at best spend only weekends skiing. Why not save time, money and energy in perfecting the basic techniques and move on to real enjoyment of the sport?" Safety on the slopes and ski ing etiquette is also taught in ski school, Peterson pointed out. Peterson plans to work with the bowl management in prep aration of ski reports. He said he will stress snow coverage, tem peratures, weather predictions, and snow conditions rather than snow depths alone. "Mt. Shasta usually has spec tacular snow depths by mid winter," Peterson commented, "hut more snow is needed here CHINESE PLAN tTRIP TOKYO d'PIl The Commu nist New China News Agency said Saturday that Red Chinese Premier Chou En-Lai and For eign Minister Chen Yi both w ill visit Algeria and Morocco dur ing the course of their African tour.

DEAR POLLY With Christ mas shopping with us. my hint is for male shoppers. I keep an up-to-date card in my billfold with my wife's measurements, shoe size, favorite brands in clothing, perfume and cosmet ics, her favorite colors and oth er likes and dislikes. When she drops a hint as to needs or preferences, I jot it down on the card. This saves returning a lot of merchandise as well as giving me the opportunity to shop at sales or at my leisure. I always have something on hand for that unexpected sur prise. N.C. DEAR POLLY It was al ways hard for me to take as pirin tablets. They would dis solve before I could swallow them. Now I put them in the re frigerator. When I need one, I get out a glass of cold water and an aspirin at the same time. They go down easily. MARY DEAR POLLY The read er's suggestion of making a Thread Tree reminded me of a sewing plaque my mother-in-law gave me as a bride 22 years ago. Use a piece of l-inch-by-12-inch board, about 15 inches long. Sand the ends and rough spots. Drive in two rows of fin ishing nails, properly spaced to accommodate spools of thread. In the remaining space arrange the following: a cup hook at each end for scissors and a tape measure, a small cork to slip a thimble on, and a small pincushion. Do not add the pin cushion until you have painted the board. Tack a strip of hea vy ribbon on the top edges, of the board so it can hang on the wall. I put a coat hook in the back of my closet and on St I hang all the empty coat hangers. They do not clutter up the rod and a hanger is always ready without having to rummage around for one. MRS. H. L. McA. GIRLS The sewing plaque would be a nice Christmas gift idea different and not expen sive. Sorry, girls, It is Impos sible to return hints to you that we cannot publish. POLLY DEAR POLLY - When light switches are taken off the wall to be painted, insert the screws (which fasten them to the wall) into holes punched in the end of a paper cup or a small box. Painting the heads of the screws is then a cinch. MRS. B.B. Share your favorite home making ideas . . . send them to Polly in care of this newspaper. Youll receive a bright, new sil ver dollar if Polly uses your ideas in Polly's Pointers. PTA At Keno Plans Potluck A full evening of activity has been planned by tlie Keno PTA on Tuesday.

In 19S7, Johnson guided the first civil rights bill in 80 years into law. In 1960, he made a deter mined bid for the nomination, but the well planned campaign waged by Massachusetts Sen. John F. Kennedy was irresistible. Then, to the surprise of everyone, Johnson accepted Kennedy's offer of the vice presidential spot. wry After the election, Johnson toured extensively as roving personal rep resentative of President Kennedy. Circling the world, he gained first hand knowledge of many coun tries and leaders, both allies and otherwise. Suddenly, with the brutal finality of an assassin's bullet, he found himself President of the United States. by Don Oakley and John Lane T am o free man, an American, a United States Senator and a Dem ocrat, in that order," said Lyndon B.

UPI -A local attorney for Teamsters President James R. Hoffa was indicted Friday on three counts of tampering with juries in volved in federal court cases against Hoffa. U.S. Attorney Kenneth Harwell who conducted the grand jury probe, said "other matters" were uncovered which reqiire further investigation by his of fice and the FBI. The federal indictments charge Z.T. Osborn Jr. with three attempts to bribe or influ ence jurors in Hoffa's 1902 con spiracy trial here and the union leader's forthcoming trial on jury-tampering charges. Tlie indictments bring to $95. 000 the amount allegedly of fered as bribes in the two cases. Osborn, a former assistant U.S. attorney who earned na tional fame as the winning law er in tlie historic Tennessee re apportionment case, could be sentenced to IS years in prison if convicted. When reached at his home Friday night, he said: "I'm in nocent, and I have the best lawyer in the country Mr. Jack Norman Sr. tof Nash ville). I am entirely innocent, Mr. Norman thinks I am inno cent." The 44-year-old lawyer has represented Hoffa since the Teamsters' president went en trial in 1962 on charges of con spiring to receive an illegal kickback from a trucking firm. That trial was declared a mistrial when the jury was un able to reach a verdict. A fed eral judge then ordered the grand jury probe which led to the indictments of Hoffa and 10 others on jury tampering charges.
