Cerebral Palsy Drive Continues; Need Is Great Mrs. Charles Rose, general chairman of Moore County United Cerebral Palsy Fund Drive announced yesterday , that this year’s drive has pas- 1 sed last year’s fund collection of $1,157. Funds are steadily I continuing to be received to ll wai’d the goal of $3,000. i She said she has $242.75 I from Mrs. A, B. Hardee, Whis pering Pines chairman, whose j| “53-Minuite Marchers"’” consis- ' ted of Mesdames Raymond Chuzes, Howard King, Don Russell, Carlton Biggs, Cliff Dawson, Tuby Goughnow, Tom Ardes, Joe Iseman and Joe Callicott. Mrs. Rose reported that treatment of cerebral palsy is complex because the condition, caused by brain damage oc curring usually at birth pro duces a multiplicity of handi caps. These range from an in ability to use the muscles to handicaps in speech, vision, hearing and intelligence. Much money is needed to continue a 12-year, $10,000,000 research and training program, she noted. With the fund drive in the I last two weeks, marchers who have not completed their as signed territories still have plenty of time before the re port day which will be Sunday, June 8. Volunteers who have completed their work should send all folders to Mrs. Char les Rose, 435 Orchard Rd., Southern Pines, or call 692- 2853 to have them picked up. Other contributions can be sent to Mrs. Vivian McKenzie, Treasurer of UCP, Pinehurst, N. C. Lynn Daeke To Finish At Air Force Academy Lynn E.

Supplement Tax Held At 25 Cents (Continued from Page 1) sion of intent, not final until the commissioners adopt their full budget by resolution in June. However, they made it plain that this was their unal terable decision. Appearing for the board, Mrs. John L. Frye, chairman, W. H. Matthews, Jack Reid. Dr. David H. Bruton and Jere McKeithen, with Supt. Robert E. Lee and Associate Supt. C. E. Powers, did not carry the fight to any great lengths, since they had already had word from the individual com missioners that a majority couldn’t be mustered. But the patrons—Mrs. Ed ward Taws, Mrs. E. Nolley Jackson, Mrs. William R. Bon sai III, Mrs. C. R. VanderVoort and Mrs. James Baynard— were something else again. Mrs. Taws told the commis sioners she considered it “very undemocratic” that Southern Pines people, wanting to pay more toward their children’s education, and in a public rather than a private school, should not be allowed to do so. She said, “We are looking for someone who will stand up for us and say that educa tion is the -most .important thing and so for we have not heard that. It has really made me sick the number of people I have heard who are talking of moving away if you don’t give the schools more consider ation. These things are not to e ignored and our children are not to be ignored.” To Chairman John M. Cur rie’s insistence that, if they felt that way about it, they should get the board of educa tion to call for a vote, Mrs. Jackson spoke up—“If Presi dent Johnson had asked every body here to vote on the sur tax, nobody would have been for it, but' we are paying it, because the nation’s leaders thought it was important. Our children are the most import ant product we have in the WHEN YOU BUY A NEW INTERNATIONAL® CUB CADET Now is your chance to buy that Cub Cadet Lawn and Garden Tractor you’ve wanted . . . and get an International Rotary Mower absolutely FREE!

North Carolina National (Tas Corporation will pay its first cash dividend this fall. Frank Barragan, Jr., presi dent of the utility firm, said directors of the company have voted to declare a five cents ner share dividend payable on September 15, 1969, to stock holders of record as of Septem ber 1, 1969. Headquarters of the $41 mil lion utility firm serving 37 ur ban communities, including Southern Pines, and two mili tary installations, is located in Fayetteville. JONES HONORED Fayettevillians turned out enmasse, faculty - staff, and friends and relatives came from all over the state to hon or Dr. Rudolph Jones at a “Recognition Night”. Dr. Jones is stepping down on July 31, after thirteen years as chief executive officer of Fayette ville State College. The occas ion was to pay tribute to Dr. Jones for his long tenure in education. county. We have to look to you—we have nowhere else to go.” The ladies agreed with the stand the board of education had taken, that the climate now is bad for a vote and that there is too much at stake to risk a failure. However, a 1967 law authorizes the county commissioners to adopt such a tax;, at whatever level they wish, without a vote. Their re fusal to set an adequate rate, the ladies said, was leading to talk of two new directions— one, a private school, the oth er the possibility of a separate administrative unit for Area III. Mrs. Jackson, admitting she was “just plain mad” at the situation, told the commission ers, “We’re worse off than we were last year—our school is suffering for it.” Matthews, vice-chairman of the board, also said he had heard a good deal of talk about a possible reversion to a separate unit—a move which would have to have the ap- proal of the board, however, unless a legislator could be found who would bypass the board with a special act, an unlikely prospect at best. McKeithen, urging consider ation of at least an extra nick el, said the 30-cent rate would amount to less than $16 on the average for each of the coun ty’s tax accounts. However, replied Currie, the commissioners had felt that “properly distributed,” the 25 cents would do the job. Mrs. Frye had presented three proposed budgets—one at 25 cents, one at 30 cents and the third at 35 cents. The 25-cent budget, totalling $289,550, served as a base on which the other two were built, with added services and enrichment features. This budget, the one which will be used, is nearly all tak en up with a graduated scale of salary supplements, the prime reason which induced the commissioners to adopt a supplement at all. For teach ing personnel and principals, the supplements are $320 per year for 100 with graduate certificates, $300 for 343 with ‘A” certificates and $200 for 20 with “B” certificates or non-standard qualifications, a total of $138,000. Four supervisors will receive $450 each, totalling $1,800. Principals and assistant principals, in addition, will receive supplements varying with the size of the school, and providing, for the. high school principals, extended- term employment for a full 12-month year. (The State pays them only for 10 and a quarter to 11 and a quarter months) The total: $9,500. Salary and travel supple ments for high school coaches, to be worked out between the principals and the coaches de pending on the number of stu dents served and the time and travel required, total $5,500 each for Union Pines and North Moore, $9,500 for Pine- crest. A full-time secretary will be provided for every principal, paid with $30,000 set aside for clerical assistance, divided among the schools at the rate of $3 per child and added to $1.75 per child paid by the, State. Transferred from the cur rent-expense budget are the salaries of three band direc tors (for nine and a quarter months) and two public school music teachers, for a total of $49,977. These will work with music teachers being paid next year under Title. I, with Mrs. Billiegene Garner of the Southern Pines faculty put ting half her time on supervi sion and coordination to pro vide. a full music program for fevery school. Among items to he cut out because the money won’t stretch are instructional sup plies, for which more than $12,000 was provided by sup plemental funds in Area III jthis year. The school children will be charged a fee for such supplies. Also lost will be a dozen ex tra teachers now being paid by the supplements, but Supt. Robert E. Lee said the or ganization of the schools, he believes changes will be made so this will be no great detri ment. He says it is unlikely any teacher will have to be discharged, as normal resigna tions and retirements should take care of it. Lost to Southern Pines will be an art teacher, in elemen tary librarian, library books and supplies, activity bus oper ation and other services. The current-expense, alloca tion of $715,962 represents the same tax levy as is in effect this year—48 and a half cents. To this, in compiling the bud get, is added the estimated sum of $261,038, the State-federal refund on vocational salaries, for a total of $976,000 Capital outlay, also levied at the same rate as this year, 23 and a half cents, will total $305,000, with delot service, at 18 cents, or $249,360. The total levy is 80 cents; the total bud get, including county and State-federal vocational funds is $1,820,178. So.
