Kids Make Good
Record In W aier
Safely Classes

Although the water safety pro-
gram of the Kennewick Red
Cross branch, which ended Satur-
day, resulted In the awarding of
few certificates, it was described
today as 'ehighly successful" by
Mrs. Elliott Duffy, Water Safety
Chairman.
When it is considered that
many of the youngsters had had
no previous experience in the
water, the progress they made Is
outstanding, Mrs. Duffy declared.
At least SO mothers attended
the final day of the program, she
added.
Attendance during the two-week
period varied from $50 to $50, a
decrease from the opening en-
rollment figure Of 272. Some
children, Mrs. Duffy commented,
were withdrawn by parents,
when they were found to be too
small or when they disliked the
water. Others were absent on
vacations. ..s. &c.,
It is hoped that the training can
be offered again next year, Mrs.
Duffy said. @..>s4 ~

1857, he said, "help US carry the
bond election"
Referring to- the proposed IL
suance of $500, 900 in school bonds
Black explained that no specific
levy was mentioned in the notice
OF election because definite COM
mitment as to the levy would make
the bonds unstable.
"The county assessor must have
the right" he continued ITO set
the levy at a figure that will pro-
duce enough revenue to meet pay
ments On principal and interest.
The actual levy will fluctuate in re-
lation to the tax value Of the pro-
perties within the district. II the
tax value becomes greater, the in
diyidual taxes become less. Thus
the assessor must be given the
right to set the levy at the rate
needed to meet any given pay
ment."
Black stressed that officials Of
the school district have nothing to
do with setting the levy.
The notion that only property
owners can vote in the bond cleo
ton is erroneous, said Black. Any
legal voter can vote In the cleo
ton. Forty per. cent Of the num-
Der voting In the last general cleo
ton must participate in the bond
election In order to 1egalize it. Six
ty per cent of those voting must
favor it in order to pass the pro-
posal. 49,. ~. - -.
Unless the district has funds on
hand, no part Of the states match
ing fund can be secured in the next
biennium, deferring school expan-
sion until 1851. I've canot wait
that long to make our schools ade-
uuate for the students we have en-
rolled" Black emphasized.

That we as owners and opera

proved fabrication features. The f.
speed SyncrO-Mesh transmission,
wholly new, provides better lubri-
cation than previous spur gear
transmissions, more effective seal
ing, greater durability and easier
shifting through synchronizing ac-
ton.
Shifting into reverse is simpler
due to the replacement of the for
mer mechanism with a coil spring
operated by the shifter interlock
plate. Shifter yOkes are also more
substantial, especially for reverse,
with redesign eliminating the pre-
Vious tendency to bend under a
cantilever load, thereby reducing
servicing and maintenance costs.
Other new features Of the 4-speed
SyncrQ-Mesh transmission include
provision Of a sediment chamber at
the bottom Of the transmission
case to prevent chips being washed
by the oil into the bearings and
other highly finished parts, and the
mounting Of the counter-shaft on
ball and roller bearings-a design
advancement which greatly in
creases gear and bearing life.
