OLEAN TIMES-HERALD, WEDNESDAY. MARCH Full State Aid Means Saving, Keagle Says PAGE Hi-Y Club Holds Banquet Taxpayers in the Olean School District will save $4,500 during" the next fiscal year if the state budget, passed Tuesday by both houses of the legislature, is approved by Governor Lehman, School Superintendent Donald M. Keagle told the Board of Education at its regular meeting Tuesday evening. That is the amount of additional state aid that would come to the district under the budget, which restores full state aid to education, Mr. Keagle said.

The Board deferred until a special meeting 24 a discussion of alterations and repairs to school buildings, proposed projects to be submitted to the Public Work Reserve and salary adjustments for teachers. LKAVES CUKTAILED In new of the anticipated shortage of competent teachers, the Board passed a resolution that no leaves of absence are to be granted or extended except for i study in a field direct- I ly related to the teacher's subjects, or in case of illness. The resignation of -Mrs. M. Julia Cain, teacher in School No.

3. because of iinfealthT'was accepted, and the Board directed that letter be sent thanking Mrs. Cain for her twenty-one years of service. In her place Miss Elizabeth Hill, at present a teacher in Belfast Central School, was appointed on the usual probationary basis. Mr.

Keagle told the Board that registration in the high school at the end of February was 1.278. the lowest figure since 1932. The reason, he said, is that a. number of pupils have left school to accept employment, while others have joined the armed forces. BOOKS PURCHASED On the motion of Dr.

L. F. Dietter. the Board voted to spend $32 per 100 pupils for books in the elementary school libraries, which Mr. Keagle said were badly rr need of new books.

-Mr. Keagle mentioned a the elementary schools ore to be used from four until seven o'clock on four evenings, probably late this for ration registration. -TcHCiiers! ne shid. expected by the Suite Rationing f. S.

Key Field. i i a i i Olean for use of Bradner Stadium was authorized by the Common Council, meeting in regular session Tuesday night, at the same terms during the 1942 season as were offered for last year. This contract proposal, contained in a resolution offered by Alderman Eyler. continues the fifteen per' cent fee in effect in 1941. as well as the S35 minimum for each game.

It was approved by a vote of seven to four after- extended debate that included defeat, by a six to five vote, of a move to have Mayor Dugan negotiate with the Brooklyn organization to see if the not be increased to twenty per cent for the coming season. Alderman Gustafson advanced this resolution following'a report by Alder-man O'Toole, who asserted the city had lost a total of S9.466.91. in the operation of the Stadium in the period from June 1. 1939. to January 1.

1942. The figures he cited as the losses included $1.370.06 for 1939: 5 4 347.69 for 1940. and S3.269.16 to date this year. i OTHER EXPENSES Explaining that these losses did i not include other city expenses, i such as materials and labor contributed by the Street Department, Mr. O'Toole said, following the meeting, that the city's loss for the in op- eraling the Stadium "woulifprob- ably be about S12.000." Not all of the expenses of the operation were charged to the city, he said, adding he was opposed to continuing the rate in effect last year.

"Leaving the rental rate at i teen per- cent is not fair to the taxpayers." Mr. O'Toole said. "I the-Oiiar-; -shouM- paya' fair Parking Meter Holidays' Are" Extended Here Operation of the city's parking meters, with respect to legal holidays, was clarified in an amendment to the par-king meter- ordinance adopted by the Common Council Tuesday night. Action in the matter came on a resolution sponsored by Alderman Brown, which seti up ten legal holidays during the year on which the melors will not be in operation. Previously, the meters were in operation except on a few I such holidays.

I As provided irr the motion, the I meters here will not be in opera- tion on the following holidays: New Year's Day. Lincoln's Birth- day. Washington's Birthday. Mem- I orial Day. Independence Day.

La- bor Day. Columbus Day. Armis-1 tice Day. Thanksgiving and Christinas. When such holidays fall on Sunday, the meters will not be in operation on lire next day.

i Monday. Considerable difficulty had arisen as 3 result of the fact a the original parking meter- ordi- nance set up only certain re- stricted holidays. The present plan extends tire number of legal holidays on which the meters i not be in operation to tie in i the legal holidays as listed by the consolidated laws of York State.

"Thev have income--such as from the sale of players--that we know I about." i Aldermen Wedlock and Eyler i spoke in support of the present rental fee.

explaining the Stadium I was not built to be operated as a profit-making enterprise. The for- i mer said it would be easy for the baseball club to leave Olean if the rate were advanced, while Mr. Eyler pointed out the maintenance costs of the Stadium would continue even if the Brooklyn organization withdrew its local franchise. He added the city "is doing the same thing for the high and St. College as for the ball club." DEBT IS C-tT-- City A i a said the indebtedness to the Bradner Estate had reduced to about and that this amount should be paid up during the after which the city will n1 c.cive 100 per cent of the gate re! i at the Stadium, i i During the discussion.

Aider- i man Sturm, as president of the I I Council, presided. Mayor Dugan withdrew, explaining that in hi? I honorary position as a director of Olean Baseball Club, he felt technicalities that might arise i later could be avoided. Alderman Gustafson's resolu- tion. which he said was being of; fered "in view of the losses" sus- tamed by the city in the Stadium operation." would have empow- ered Mayor Dugan to negotiate I witn Brooklyn officials in an a'- tempt to obtain a twenty cent rental fee from them mi-'nc, I the 1942 season.

Loren Johnson representing the Olean i of the County Taxpayers Association, spoke in support of the plan to obtain greater- revenue for' the Stadium operation, pointing- out that the taxpayers cannot afford to lose money on such an operation, particularly during- times like the present. CLOSING. DISCUSSED "If we can't show a profit on the Stadium," he said, "it would be better to close it up for the duration." In this regard. Alderman Wedlock said he felt it. would be wiser- policy to toko a small operating- loss than to tiro Stadium and see it "fall to pieces" in the four or five years the war may last.
