Still to be determined is the
exact method to be utilized in
conducting the poll. Some teach
ers are known to favor secret
ballot to assure protection Of
their identities as opponents OF
a program already established
as a fixture by school authori-
ties.
While a total OF 1923 teachers
have gained salary advance
ment through the recognition
program. some sources have
contended the program has not
functioned as planned, pointing
to the rejection of 100 veteran
applicants for career advance
ment. They have charged that
personalities, rather than teach
ing competency, have been at
issue in some cases, and have
questioned the abilities Of some
teachers and principals to eval-
uate adequately the effective

of the engineering division of

Williams also revealed that a
recommendation OF his division
was a factor in the SRCs deci-

requested to make a radar
speed check on the road for the
State Roads Commission.
Williams said he understood
the speed check was asked be-
cause a number of civic groups
and residents of the area had
requested the State Commission
to the lower the limit. The sur

S5 per cent of vehicles travel
ing along the road were operat-

The 55-mile speed limit has
been the target of numerous
complaints, not only from near
by residents who felt it was too
high, but from motorists who
objected to an abrupt change in
authorized speeds OF 90 miles
an hour at each end of the
stretch, where the limit is 35.
