Mr. “Cutten mentioned that more courses were being contem- splated and the possibility that a Blarger building may therefore ¥ Dr. Linford Werkheiser, Bdistrict muffgsietendent com- Ewere of applesauce and stomatoes. Dr. Werkheiser tadded that the increase in the cafeteria’s position even more difficult in the future. He stressed the fact that meat costs are especially going rapidly up, while the cafeteria is not getting “surpluses in meat as before. Dr. Werkheiser made no mention of : the price now being charged for - school lunches, nor whether the present; and expected future, cafeteria losses will affect that . price. Dr. Werkheiser reported that ' the federally-funded, flood- related construction of the relo- - catable school, for which Panel- ‘ fab International Inc. are - general contractors, was being - delayed because of weather - conditions. The first hold up was due to the frozen ground and now the ground has been too wet. : The superiatgndent went on to say that if fhe weather im- “proved some, the contractor would be able to pour concrete to stabilize the mud. From there “they could pour the all-import- ant concrete slab, the lack of which has held up construction of the federally-funded, flood- related building. Chairman Novick added that all necessary material is at the site or enroute, so that the building should go up quickly following the pouring of the slab. The contract on this facility for which the board earlier resolved to authorize payment of $84,728 to Panelfab, calls for a $100 per day penalty for non- completion after Feb. 1. When asked whether - this penalty clause would be invoked, Dr. Werkheiser rade it known that the ell 1 be the federal government’s, as the penalty money would go to the government Phe board had also earlier r€solved to approve $3,937 additional on the school’s building contract. The relocatable school is a 500-student facility. The government will pay for that proportion of the building and equipment according to the number of flood-related students in the area. If the Dallas School District can show that it has taken in 400 flood- related students, for example, then the federal government will take care of four-fifths of the cost of the relocatable school. The Dajlas District must take up the rit. The schooi~district is in the process of determining just what that proportion is. Dr. Werkheiser pointed out that the big problem comes in the defi- nition of a ‘‘flood-related student’’. A student is flood- related if his home was made uninhabitable by the flood, but he may also be considered flood-related if his father came to the Dallas area because his business or job was flooded, or simply if his parents changed their minds and decided to move to Dallas, rather than into the Valley because of fear of another flood. Obviously the board hopes to find every flood-related student in order to minimize their share of the expense. So far 350 definite flood-related students have been recognized. There are an additional 100 from which they are having difficulty getting respongs, due, in part, to the problems definition. Dr. Werkheiser predicted that they expect to reach that 400 figure after the tally, so that there should be a four-fifths, one-fifth split on expenses. After recommendations from the Dallas School District Authority and the architects, the board resolved to accept as completed the Dallas Junior High School building. At the previous meeting the board would not authorize final school authority. The final cost data report will now be filed with the Bureau of ‘School Construction, Department of Education, Harrisburg. yy = RE Cub Scout Pack 241 recently held its annual Blue and Gold dinner at the Castle Inn, Dallas.

The first question is the full name and address including zip code of every customer of PG&W ‘with whom arrange- ments pertaining to bottled pro- pane gas have at any time been made by you.” The second inquiry is for the gas company to indicate “which entities identified in answer to Interrogatory 1, arrangements were in existence at the time of the service of process in the instant case.” The case referred to is the one entered in the county court simultaneously with the class action complaint which was filed with the Pennsylvania Public Utility Commission Feb. 8.

PG&W is represented by O'Malley, Morgan, Bour & Gallagher in the county court case, in which so far only a summons and the interrog- atories have been entered. The law firm of Metzger, Hafer, Keefer, Thomas and Wood have been counseling PG&W in the PUC complaint, and have won an extension of time in which to answer the complaint. The firm was first ordered to Feb. 26, then requested an extension to March 19, whereupon Mattes and O'Hara asked for a temporary stay of the April 1 rate hike. They have now agreed to the PUC granting a 45-day extension for PG&W’s PG&W not cut off service to its liquid propane customers.
