A bill to remove salary limitations for school superintendents, officers, and employees was introduced Wednesday in the Senate with Administration backing. Senate Bill 225, sponsored by Senator James Ware, would repeal the salary-limit statute for school officials and employees as 60on as it is passed in the General Assembly and signed by the Governor. The salary limit has been $12,000. But a court ruling last year was interpreted by attorneys for the Louisville and Jefferson County boards of education as removing the limit. Louisville Superinten dent Samuel V.

Noe shortly afterward had his salary raised to $19,875, and Jefferson County Superintendent Richard Van Hoose was given a $20,000 salary. Got Supplemental Pay Before that they and some Louisville officials had received supplemental pay from the University of Louisville to augment thier $12,000 salaries. But the U. of L. discontinued the practice on the advice of its attorneys and an attorney general's opinion.

They are the only two local school officials paid more than $12,000, according to State Department of Education records. A more recent Court of Appeals ruling created doubt about the legality of paying more than $12,000 to school officials, however, and Noe, Van Hoose, and board attorneys sought help from Governor Combs in removing the statutory limitation. Another bill to remove the limit on salaries paid municipal employees was given its first reading Wednesday in the House. The bill, which has already been approved by the Senate, will be ready for final passage Friday. Bub FORD DEALER'S USED CAR wm min iimiiimi eni-a ii rurnniiriiiiiiri mmiimiririianiM i iai ia.
