AT Page County Schools
speeioI pispoteh TO The ssor

LURAY. Va, July 19.-Numer-
Gus repairs are being made this
summer at Page County schools,
according to School Supt. Cecil
Graves.
The repairs were made possible
by some $19.500 received from the
State because of a 30-cent in
crease in the local levy last year,
Mr.. Graves said.
At Luray, repairs will be made
to the roof and a complete paint
ing job on the outside will be pro-
vided. Toilets, floors and closets
also will be painted.
Roof repairs will be made at
Stanley and Shenandoah as well
as miscellaneous painting work.
At Springfield, the roof is being
fixed and an inside painting job
is in progress. In this case the
school board is furnishing the
paint and the Springfield Parent
Teacher Association the labor.
Mr.. Graves said the extra money
was not anticipated. He added
that the school board would have
been in a tight financial position
lit the assistance had not been
