Joseph Fairbanks. chairman
Of the Board of Elections, esti-
mated yesterday that it may
be some time next week before
the board will complete the
official count of votes cast at
the May 8 election.
He explained that one of the
first tasks facing the board is
rulings on whether approxi-
mately 1000 challenged ballots
should be counted.
Then. he said. the board
must make an official count of
all the votes. The results re-
ported so far have been un-
official.
1t is possible that decisions
on challenged ballots and diff
ferences between the unofficial
and official counts could change
the outcome Of some close races
such as the one between Frank
D. Reeves and j. c. Turner for
District Democratic national
committeeman.
Mr.. Reeves, who was sup
ported by the D. c. Committee
for Humphrey, defeated Mr..
Turner by a margin of 365
votes. according to the unoffi-
cial tabulation compiled by
board employees and a press
counting pool.

Mr.. Turner was supported by

S15-MILLION WINDFALL
Poinless Way Found !
ToCut Foirfox Budoet

The Fairfax Board of County
Supervisors yesterday cut SIS
million out of a proposed $3.50
million budget without adverse
ly affecting the budget or cur
failing any services.
Admittedly, it is a one-time
saving.
The SIS million is a part OF
.s2,763,256 the supervisors have
tentatively trimmed from the
1960-6l budget so far. The
other major cut involves sl.l
million removed from the
School Boards capital budget
This sum now is included in a
$26 million bond referendum
set for May 81.
Tax Rise Cut
As a result. the present S3.75
real estate tax rate would be
increased only 20 cents per
500 assessed valuation, instead
of rs cents as originally pro-
posed.
During a discussion of the
School Boards $27.5 million
budget request. the SIS million
cut was described this way:
The county's fiscal budget
runs from July / to June 80
each year. But teachers are
paid from September l to Aug
ust 81 in IL monthly INSTALL
ments.
Heretofore, the funds for
paying teachers salaries during
July and August have been
budgeted a year in advance.
Thus, at the end of the fiscal
year that amount shows as a
surplus.
Under the new system, the
funds for teachers salaries will
be allocated on the same fiscal
basis as the county budget,
eliminating the continuing sur
plus. which amounted to SIS
million this year.

Goins-To-The Sun Highway
Contracted By Swiss Engineer

EAST GLACIER PARK, NON
TANA. - One of the most re-
markable engineering feats in the
world was accomplished by a
Swiss engineer and his crew In
1888.
A 50-mile stretch of mountain
road was completed through the
Rocky Mountains of Glacier Ma
tional Park in that year. Com
pletjon of the Going TO The sun
road, as it is called, for the first
time made it possible to drive
through the park by car.
This year marks the 9th year
of the road. For Glacier Park IL
self 1860 is the 50th Anniversary
since it became a national park
in 1910.
Going To The Sun road crosses
the Continental Divide at Logan
Pass at an elevation OF 6,oo4
feet. On one side towers the
colorful, formidable Garden
Wall; on the other side all the
precipitous mountain peaks OF
the Rocky Mountain chain.
A cost of S4.5 million has made
this Swiss-like terrain accessible
to the automobile traveller and
put rugged hiking country with
in easier reach of the climber.
The memorable day when Co
ing To The Sun road was opened
put an end to many of the pack
trips through this area by l,2oo
saddle horses earlier in the 10Th
century.
Even including the Going To

The hunter safety program

that time some 10000 students

All those under Is must have a

big game license. The training
program is also open to other
interested youngsters if they in
