He urged that people attend the game that was held the night after the meeting. A letter from retired board member Meckley was read. It urged financial caution, and advised the board not to adopt the provisions of Act 113. Bills pending in Harris- burg were mentioned. The superintendent’s re- port was gone over by Mr. Hallgren. He pointed out items of interest. His recommendation to hire two new teachers was approved. They are: Miss Terry Anderson, of RDI Indiana, Pa., as junior high math full time substitute; and Mrs. Carol Stemmer, of East Petersburg, as a full time sub in high school English. The 11 new teachers who are coming into the system this year attended the meeting. They were intro- duced by Mr. Hallgren: Mrs. Ruhl, Miss Hoy, Mrs. Stoner, Miss Beck, Mrs. Rossi, Miss Anderson, Mr. Zimmerman, Miss Zimmer- man, Mrs. Ceresini, Mrs. Harnish, and Miss Cox. The insurance committee was given authority to buy insurance on its own without a vote by the board. The hiring of Mr. Roy Shaeffer, Mrs. Gloria Cun- ningham, Mrs. Josephine Rose Radle, and Mrs. Jane Zimmerman as custodial and cafeteria workers was OK’ed. Mrs. Cox’s Granview 4th grade class will go to Daniel Boone's homestead on October 12th. Long Roofing Co. of York started putting a new roof on the high school on September 6th. About 32 people attend- ed the discipline group chaired by Jere Duke on August 29th. Mr. Hallgren said that Mr. Duke ‘did a very fine job’ on the discipline committee. Mount Joy borough man- ager Joe Bateman sent a letter asking again for tax exoneration for the Shatto property. It was denied. The board spent a great deal of time talking about the lights at the tennis courts at DHS. They had planned to install coin operated meters to switch the lights on, but that plan was cancelled when the cost was found to be in about $700. The lights cost, in electricity, $.60 an hour to light. Various schemes for al- lowing the public to use the lights and still have the electricity paid for were proposed. Finally, they agreed to let people sign up and pay in advance for court time at night. “If it doesn’t work, we’ll change it next spring,”’ said Mr. Arnold. A change in the district's accounting system was ap- proved. Instead on being on a cash basis, the liability incurred in one vear will stay in that year. " Mr. Hallgren, saying, “This has happened so seldom it's worth mention- ing,”’ pointed out an information item in his report about a can having been thrown through the high school office window one night. A letter from James Metzler was read. It com- plained about the with- drawl of the phrase ‘‘and guest’ from the free sports events tickets the teachers and other school workers gel. “l have been deeply insulted... to the point of debating my resignation,’’ said the letter. It pointed out that the teacher’s spouse makes sacrifices for the team, too, and asked rhetorically, ‘‘Should 1 dis- cipline and entire class because of one or two unruly students...?”’ (refer- ing to the decision based on the behavior of a few teachers—the board later agreed to the statement that only certain ‘‘rotten apples’ were abusing the free spouse privilege). Dr. Hartzler asked why the abuses, which consist of people other than school workers and their spouses attending the games free, September 27, 1973 were not stopped at the gate. Mr. Armold replied that the ticket takers don't know all the teachers and workers on sight. He said there would be ‘‘scenes’ if the ticket-takers challenged people. A number of people were approved to be prosecuted for failing to file earned income tax returns for the county. Among the names were those of a former Donegal track star, a one -time Marietta council member, and a Mount Joy hang glider test pilot. ¥ After the adoption of the superintendent’s report, a woman complained that her daughter had been strand- ed at Donegal High after a recent football game be- cause she had been unable to get to a phone. The phone in the lobby had been locked up. Mr. Armold replied that he had been there and would have let the girl in to the phone if she had asked him. (The girl had asked a janitor, who had refused). “It’s no problem,’ add- ed Mr. Drenner. Many people who have the key are at the high school after games, he said. Another woman com- mented on the pay given to Mr Halbleib for supervising bus students for 20 minutes each morning. He was given a raise by the board, from $3.75 a day to $4.00.
