It also will give the voters a chance to make their views felt on the pay hike for the supervising principal, although the voters have no authority to change the increase. It is conceded that the main reason behind the two previous rejections was the inclusion of the pay boost for Bain. The budget lost by 24 votes on June 19 and by nine votes on July 31, with 200 more persons voting the second time. During the origii.al meeting, an attempt was made to vote on the salary item separately, but the board rejected the move at that time.

The Board of Education, during a lengthy meeting Tuesday night, decided on tre three section method in the hope of gaining approval for the full $974,715 budget. Voting is scheduled for 7.30 m. That is the night before classes begin for the school jear. Three Items Offered First item to be offered I voters will be the budget as a whole, but stripped of sec- Uons covering administrators' salaries, including the con-f troversial $500 pay raise for Supervising Principal How- ard E. Bain, and of an outlay for the Oakfield Free Li-' brary.

Second will be the salary question by itself, and third, the $500 library item. Decision to submit the budget in that manner is seen by the board as a possi- Paula Heins Fete Slated 'i1 For Le Roy LE ROY Le Roy will honor its own Miss New York State with a Miss Paula Heins Day program Wednesday, Aug. 29, with a parade at 7:15 p.m. The day was proclaimed by Mayor John F.

The Jaycees have asked the South Byron Girl Drum Corps to host the parade.

"The board is going to stick by its original agreement," Horace J.

Blood, a board member, told a visiting delegation. President Duane Grehlinger said later that a majority of the board is in agreement on this point. Although the citizens of the district may be empowered, at the board's discretion, to vote on salaries, the result is not legally binding on the board, which has the final say in this phase of the budget.

"The park belonged to the kids and they all had a great time," said Sheriff James L.

y. Refreshments and rides were free and volunteer workers dispensed 17,000 cups of soft drinks, 15,000 hot dogs and more than 3,000 suckers. Volunteers from the Caledonia Fire Department and its auxiliary and Lakeville and Mt. Morris firemen and Lions Club of Lakeville, plus 30 sheriff's deputies and members of the sheriff's association were on hand to supervise. For the first time, the county was divided, with a portion of the young populace coming in the morning and the rest in the afternoon.

School buses transported most of the children, although a few hundred came in private cars. Co-chairmen of the event were Undersheriff Martin Gil- bride and Deputy Arthur Far-rell.

Batavia Rules Out Classes to Aid Mentally Retarded BATAVIA There will be no classes for severely mentally retarded children in the city school district this year, but board of education members will keep abreast of the situation in the event conditions warrant establishing such a class. Meeting Tuesday night, the board heard reports from School Supt. Edward L.

Osborn and Dr. Bashcer Anjam, school psychologist, on the classes for these students, mandated by the State Legislature if a certain number are found in a school district. Severely mentally retarded children are referred to as "trainables" and are those with intelligence quotients below 50. Cites Requirements Supt. Osborn pointed out the requirements have been interpreted to mean that there must be eight such children within a four-year span in order to require that districts establish such a class.

"We have not yet found ourselves under mandate to formulate such a class," the superintendent said, but added that the board should "give some thought to establishing a class, not immediately, but in the near future." Dr. Anjam told board members that the best that can be hoped for is that these chi-dren will get a certain amount of socialization out of such a class "that they mix with the outside world." The board postponed until next month action on a recommendation of Dr. George E. Ruby, principal of the Batavia Junior High School, that the passing marks for 7th and 8th Grade pupils be reduced from 75 to 70. It also was suggested that the grading system be amended to advance by single points from 85 to 100.

Under the existing system, students are marked by fives until 90 and then by one point from 90 to 100. The board decided it wants to look into the entire marking situation and will ask Ruby to appear at the September meeting, Four Teachers Signed Supt. Osborn reported he has filled all teaching positions except one for remedial reading and that everything is proceeding smoothly for the opening of school in two weeks. The board hired four instructors. Mrs.

Hollis R. Upson of Batavia was engaged to teach Latin and German at Batavia High School, Harry L. Hyatt of Rimers-burg, Pa. and Richard L. Williams of Milmont Park, Pa.

were hired to teach junior high English and Mrs. N. Jean Kenyon of Niagara Falls to teach social studies in the junior high. The also engaged seven part-time teachers, most of whom were in the rtrrf Am I i rf Iran PAn(nl system last year. Contracts for supplying coal to three buildings and for milk products, ice cream and bread were awarded to the same contractors as last year.
