Clinton To Welcome Boy From Thailand hudRol for the lUfiS-df) school year railing for a tax levy of and sliowint: oxpomlituvos totaling will he presented to the electors of the DeL-ivan-Darien In- ion High School district for their approval at the annual school meeting to be held beginning at 8:30 p.m. Monday evening in the high school auditorium. The proposed tax levy is an increase of $97,151 over the levy for the school year just completed, although the expenditures for the coming year show an increase of only $68,076. A balance of $39,237 at the beginning of the 1964-RS school year allowed for a lower tax levy last year than otherwise might have been expected. The balance to be carried over into this year's budget as shown June 30.

is only $5,320. The increa.se in the budget is due primarily to an increase in enrollment of an e.stimated ,50 students for the year, according to suiierintendent of schools Richard Manske Teachers salaries for the coming year also show an increase of $45,410. The increase provides for the addition of two more teachers to the faculty, an additional six intern teachers in atl- dition to the 10 employed this past year, and the normal salary increases of the present faculty in accordance with the salary schedule adopted by the board of education earlier this year. Further increases are in debt service because of the increased payments for jjrincipal and interest due to the current $350,000 addition to the high school under way at the present time, bus contracts, general furniture and equipment, textbooks I A I PROTECTION AGAINST LOSS and supplies, and custodial costs. The impact of the proposed )0 increase in the tax levy will be softened for taxpayers, however, as the result of a nearly $10 million increase in the district's equalized valuation, Manske noted that the equalized valuation is now up to $82,321,900, The 1963 equalized valuation was $73,322,200.

Man.ske estimated that the new budget and lax levy will require an increase in taxes of approximately 29 cents per $1,000 of equalized valuation. Translated into terms of assessed valuation for city of Delavan residents, the increase would be about 35 cents per $1,000 of assessed valuation. Thus, owners of homes or other proprty assessed at $10,000 would pay an additional $3,50 on their high school tax bill next year.

The following proposals were presented to the commission for approval, which would give a better service to local subscribers: (1) to discontinue eight-party service in the rural zones; (2) to eliminate present mileage charges on one, two or four party business and residential services located beyond the base rate area boundary; (3) to establish four rate zones in the territory outside of the base rate area boundary and to establish zone rates in place of mileage 'charges; and (4) to discontinue providing four-party residential service inside of the ba.se rate area. A spokesman for the group said the company hopes to have all work done by the time of the conversion, but they will have to wait for the commission's proval on the new type of service. The new office for the dial change-over project is located at the corner of Montgomery Court and N. Madi.son Street. iThe building, a one-story 65-by- '56 foot structure of masonry and concert, houses all the necessary equipment to provide the dial service.

Besides con.struc- of the new building and in- stallalion of the dial equipment, other phases which must be include the installation and rearrangement of aerial and underground cable facilities; installation of dial telephones in the homes and places I of business; assignment of new I telephone numbers to over 2,000 customers and compilation and distribution of a new telephone directory. i About $125,000 will be spent in rural areas, which will enable customers to have private lines if they wi.sh.
