Cuts in Budget
Peril Schools

/ A 'educed budget and rising
costs are threatening to curtai
the building program Of thu
Montgomery County Board o.
Education.
Some new schools planned fol
the current fiscal year may b:
built in abbreviated form. Others
may be postponed.
The situation was etched in
sharp outline early today when
the board. at the end of a FIVE
hour meeting, made two signif-
icant decisions.
First, it voted to seek county
council permission to shift
$50. 900 from the Sherwood High
School building appropriation
so that .602,456 addition can be
built at the Kensington Junior
High School. Only $546,80O was
allocated for the Kensingtor
project in the 1861 budget.
Despite the transfer, another
$45. 600 will be needed to furnish
the Kensington school. The
furniture question was left I'M
resolved when the board decided
to conserve the balance of the
$76,913 surplus in the Sherwood
account.
Board Member Harrison King
said that this sum, plus another
100000 expected to be made
available by delaying construc-
ton of the Germantown Elemen-
tary School addition, comprised
1.-The only surplus money We
have"
He and other board members
warned that new school projects
scheduled to start in the next
few months likely will cost more
than existing appropriations.
Last June the County Council
cut the board proposed school
budget from $11 million to SO
million. Since then, building
costs have risen Is per cent,
James C. Sheldon, supervisor of
construction, told the board.
Discarding the fund transfer
method in second money
squeeze problem, the board re-
ijected all bids on the new Ash
burton Elementary School in
Bethesda.
Mr.. Sheldon called the bids
too high. The entire project was
estimated to cost $1,000 more
than the appropriation of $751;
108 earmarked for the school.
| In the new bidding contractors
will be asked to submit bids on
a variety of alternatives so that
the project can be tailored to
available funds.
| In prior years cushion funds
were accumulated from surpluses
on school projects carried over
indefinitely on the school books.
Such accumulations were banned
this year tightening the money
framework in which the board
can operate.

vich, they were favorably re-
ceived and enjoyed by all.
So much so, that one time
Johnny Stimac was so over
whelmed he had to do some
thing about it. Tried a solo
singing act on the dance floor
and went over with a bang.
His vocalizing was so original,
the people stopped dancing
to pay him homage-if this
is the proper word to use. 1t
seems that they were trying
TO make q decision-whether
to let him murder the song
or should they murder the
singer. 1t is odd but we did
have a similar incident at the
first tournament, also in
Gary, when Bob Knezevich of
Cleveland found himself in
the same predicament.
To represent the Croatian
Fraternal Union, from Pitts
burgh came Supreme Secre-
tary Joseph Bella. His well
delivered speech, wherein he
congratulated the golfers and
the guests for making this
event a huge success received
a deserving ovation. His fond
wish was to see golf blossom
out further and make it ano'
ther CFU sports spectacle.
Also joining in the festivi.

officers, among them Sylvia

Pitt Tenpin Loop

Pittsburgh, Pa. - Situated
as Pittsburgh is in the midst
of bowlers oriented to the
game of duckpins, it is also
the home Of a number Of
members who would rather
bowl tenpins. How many? We
aim to find out to the point
of accommodating those who
bowl the big pins.
With this announcement
and whatever else is neces-
sary thereafter, we offer the
services of the Sports-Educa-
tional Department as the me-
dunn and focal point toward
organizing a Pittsburgh area
C.F.U. Tenpin League. We
would like to have q registry
of lodge teams and individ-
uals, men or women, with an
intent to bowl in such a
league.
The purpose of which will
be enhanced if you do not
stop with your own bowling
be it good, mediocre or just
a beginner but rather pass on
some of that enthusiasm to a
fellow member. Our leagues
have always been a composite
of members desirous of as
sociating with their fellow or
sister members.
You will enrich your own
membership by moving more

fore, are receptive to names
