The proposal is that q haliblt

COUNTY SCHOOL
PLAN REVISED

A temporary waving Of the
Montgomery county teachers sal
ary schedule for the coming year,
rather than any plan of salary re-
duction, is recommended to the
Montgomery County Civic Fed
Grafton by its school committee,
whose report will be submitted at
tonight's meeting by it's chair
man, Robert E. Bondy.
Other recommendations favored
by this committee include the
holding up for a year or two
further course of study revision
to permit changes to be properly
absorbed into the school system;
the assignment of teachers in the
two and three teacher schools on
the basis Of average attendance
rather than the individual enroll
ment: the postponement of minor
repairs not absolutely necessary,
and the consolidation of three
small schools and the elimination
of one smaller high school.
The last item will make all
county high schools standard.

trict Governor Paul E. Ellsworth,
of Chestertown, Nd, told dele
gates to the thirty-fourth District
Rotary conference at the Willard
Hotel today.
One of the 'SureSt guarantees of

cally, he said.

Thompson, president, is host to
the gathering.
Speaking on the individual
loyalties of a Rotarian, Canon

that ultimate recovery from the
present situation depends upon
recognition of spiritual truths.

Is Lanny Ross a tenor or is he

the discrepancy was pointed out,
representatives of the agency and
of the network met over the
pipe of peace traditional to such

question to Lanny himself. So
Lanny is put in the unique posi-.

without singing a single note,
whether he will be a Morton
