COUNCIL NOTES

Due to the illness of the Mayor, Councilman Wallace McIver pre- sided at the Council meeting on Monday evening.
 It was reported that the city had made the necessary repairs to the heating system, as required after the inspection had been made by a state boiler official.
 A letter was received from Eli Mulch, stating he was willing to sell his property next to the school playground, for assessed valuation.
 An agreement is being studied by the City, with the administra- tor of the court system, concern ing the setting up of services for the office of the magistrate.

Safety Program Presented
 At P-TA Meeting Tuesday

At P-IA MeeJlng IucSQay
 Safety was the theme of the P.-TA last evening with State Police Sgt. Bob Morris, Evert Hough of the BPR, and Police Chief John Marvik answering questions to many traffic and driving questions.
 The program was planned by John Woodiel, who showed film on Safety" which has also been shown to the school children.
 MT. Hough explained tn t whenever community gets a paved street, new hazards nat urally develop. The tricycle. driv- CTS must be trained to stay off the pavement, and this must be done by the parents for the safe ty of their children. Although the city traffic speed is only 20 miles an hour, and IS in school zones, these little folk popping out from between parked cars, and not watching where they are going are a great hazard. He cautioned that pedestrians have the right of way, but the time has come to separate pedestrian and drivers with crosswalks and traffic rules. He suggested that the city pro- vide a sidewalk on the east side of Boring Street so that school children need not use the street coming and going from school.
 Parents asked John Marvik for areas where children can play safely with sleds and skis in the winter months, and were in formed that these areas would be announced as well as crosSwalks for streets, especially in the area around the school.
 P-TA went all out on feeding the children in school, and author ized purchase of a heavy duty mixer and other necessary equip ment for the teachers to use in the mixing of powdered milk each day, $175 was allocated for this purpose. They also voted $10O toward tickets for hot lunches for needy children.
 Parents enjoyed half hour of band music preceding the meeting, under the direction of Lee Barber. The band was colorful in it's at tractive uniforms.
 President w. Bohrer announced that there would not be another P-TA meeting until January.

discovered-to his complete
astonishment--that the tumor
was not malignant.

age of school counseling per-

the shift. Chairman Thomas

At the outset of last nights
meeting, attended by nearly 100
persons, number of citizens
and representatives of the four

shift. Their opposition was
based on alleged lack of proper

quate academic groupings in
the elementary grades.
Cost Seen Less
On several occasions board
member Lytton H. Gibson, who

that he believed the seventh

Mrs, Dexter termed the shift
"an irresponsible way to run a

the lower schools.
