Is. Mill Levy Essential For
Operation During Next
School Term

Passage Ct the thirteen-mill levy for the maintenance and
operation of the Butte public school system for the l947-48
term is imperative. Two mills are required BY the high school
and eleven by the grade schools. This issue will be voted
upon by the taxpayers at the school election, Saturday, April S.
All citizens r acutely aware that costs have increased te-
mendously. Reliable statistics reveal that goods and services
have risen sac, in price over the pre~ar level of 1859.
Food alone has increased according to the Dunn and Bradstreet
price index, almost $50 since price control lapsed On June 80.

erely pinched by this initiation for their revenue has remained
static az prices mounted.
Therefore to put school revenues in line with increased OPP
Grating costs, the Butte school board is submitting the thirteen
mill levy to the voters at the School Election on Saturday, April
S. Favorable action at the polls will assure our community
P continued and uninterrupted school program. Similar action
il being taken by a m majority Of Montana cities. Mill levies
arc tc be voted in Billings, Bozeman, Great Falls and French
town in varying amounts. To date Butte has been fortunate
enough not to have had to augment its school monies by spe-
cial levies. However the problem Of school revenue in Butte
has become very serious. Butte teachers, once the highest
paid in the state, have watched their salaries surpassed by
those Of teachers in a greater part Of the state. Salary scales
in Helena, Great Falls, Missoula, Billings and Anaconda are
highe, than the Butte scale. Butte has never been considered
q low price town. The cost-of-iving here is as high as it is
in any part Of the state. Passage of the thirteen mill levy
is an absolute necessity to assure Butte that its public schools
will have sufficient revenue to operate next September. Vote

titled to the best in education. See that they are provided

$4,000 Expected
At Orange Bowl
Game On Friday
(SpecIal to The Citixeal

CORAL GABLES, Fla, Sept
24.-The first $4,000 of the quar-
ter million football fans who will
jam the Orange Bowl to see the
University of Miami Hurricanes
in action this fall, will be on hand
the night of Sept. 26 to see Coach
Jack Harding's eleven launch its
1947 football campaign against
the rejuvenated Baylor Bears
from Waco, Texas.
Season ticket sale assures the
Hurricanes of $4,000 fans for ev-
cry game while the student and
faculty sections boost the total
to 10000 per game. Sell-outs of
the $4,000 Orange Bowl seating
capacity seem assured for most
of the eight home games.
Miami won eight of ten last
! year and faces a somewhat
stronger overall schedule this
fall, though only Alabama is ex-
pected to approach the class OF
'ISU and North Carolina, Miami's
= 1916 conquerors.
Hal Johnston at. iullback is ex-
lpected to be one of the nations
leading ground gamers this fall
A year ago the Hurricanes gained
683 yards on his passes and since
Hal has virtually all of his favor
tie receivers back with a few
newcomers added, the outlook for
Miami success by the air route
is excellent. Hal averaged almost
exactly 20 yards gain for each
completed pass.
The 1872 pound back is no scat
back but his power running eats
up the yards. His average gain
on 81 running plays last year was
3.6 yards per try. When it is con-
sidered that this average includes
80 yards of losses, most of which
came on plays when pass receiv-
ers were too we'll covered, the
figure is very good. His actual
gain on strictly running plays
was about five yards per try. He
also took part in the longest punt
return Miami made last year. He
took a Louisiana State punt on
his 20, broke away from just
about every L.S.U. foe who hit
him on his journey and finally
after covering 70 yards, lateraled
to John Nell for a score as he
was being hauled from behind.
