Ruling Will Be

Noble county commission

This can be done after deter

involved would benefit the
county, O'Neill said, adding that
machinery and supplies pur-
chased with gasoline tax re-
venues could not be made avail
able to such conservation organ
izations. The money should be
paid only from the county's
general fund, O'Neill said, in an
opinion requested by Prosecutor

Fox made the request for an
opinion on the following:
Would you please give me an

Revised Code of Ohio? This
section in part says that the
board of county commissioners
may make contribution of
money, supplies, equipment,
office facilities and other prop

then permissible under this
section to put at the disposal of
such soil conservation districts,
county road machinery for use
of the districts and for the
county to pay for the mainten-

the money to pay for operating
such equipment is taken from

Eiqht-Point Buck
And Car Collide
Near Park Motel

The deer hunting season came
in little too early for Dorsey
Thurman Vest, 25, of Bruins
wick, route |, but the circum-
stances were not exactly to his
liking.
Vest was travelling south on
USR 21, near the Park motel,
when an eight point buck deer
ran across the highway, directly
in the path of the Vest vehicle.
The accident occurred at 8:45
p. m., Wednesday, Nov. 23
The front end of the vehicle,
the right fender and the radiator
were damaged by the impact.
Shirley Vest, 81, wife of the
driver, was the only other
occupant in the car. Neither one
was injured.
Sheriff Donald Conaway, who
investigated, said the deer was
not killed outright but was later
found in a field south of Cald-
well, where it had collapsed and
died from the injuries it had
received.
