The seedlings for District 3, one of five in Illinois, come The Harmony-Emge-Ellis Board of Education Monday will consider additional cutbacks In the district's activities. The board voted last month to eliminate kindergarten and all programs not required for state aid or recognition by the North Central Association. The action came after voters defeated for the second time a request for a 21-cent increase in die educational fund. Superintendent Leonard Parr-ish, said the board was considering inclusion of processing costs In book rentals, charging a fee for art and sicence supplies, and increasing the fee charged for transporting pupils who live less than one and a half miles from school to $12 for the first child and $6 for each additional child. The present fee, $8 for the first child and $4 for each additional child.

Other proposals include fees for use of school facilities by organizations and summer programs not operated by the district. Presently, parents groups and supervised groups of pupils from the district, such as the Boy Scouts, are not charged for using school facilities. Other groups are charged $5 an hour. Parrish said that extending the charges for facilities would not benefit the educational fund as the fees would go into the building fund. The charge was proposed by the Ellis School Parent Teachers Association which has since changed its mind about the proposal, Parrish said.

The tax increase would have brought about $65,000 additional revenue needed to operate new facilities under construction at the Ellis and Emge Schools. The cutbacks would save between $35,000 and $40,000, he said. RESEARCHER GETS GRANT TO RECHECK JUVENILE GANG A crime researcher at Southern Illinois University has received a $3865 federal grant to conduct a follow up study of a juvenile gang in Chicago. Leon Jansyn of SIU's Center for the Study of Crime, Delinquency and Corrections will attempt to find out what happened to the gang 10 years after he originally studied it as a counselor for the Illinois Institute of Juvenile Research. The grant was made by the National Institutes of Health.

SIU CONDUCTS EXPERIMENTAL COOKING CLASS The East St. Louis chapter of the Congress on Racial Equality is considering demonstrations in Granite City to obtain housing for Negroes in the city, Homer Randolph, chairman, reported. "Granite City is lily white because Negroes have been excluded for many years. The time for action already is late," he said. Randolph said that open occupancy in the city "would be Just good human relations and good race relations." The group plans to negotiate with city officials before any demonstrations, he said.

CORE already has met with Granite City Mayor Donald Partney. The Southwestern Illinois Metropolitan Area Planning Commission, In a survey of the East Side, estimated that 39,983 white persons and 90 nonwhites lived In Granite City in 1960. Partney estimated that the non-white population was unchanged and that the white population had grown to about 45,000. The Mayor said that Granite City had no racial problems. He noted some Negroes lived in the city and Negro children were enrolled in the Granite City school system.

Partney denied Randolph's charge that the city had a "sundown" ordinance which forbade Negroes on the street after dark. "Since I was child, understood that the city had a law of that sort," Partney said. "But when I became Mayor I went through our laws and found we do not have such an ordinance." The city does not have a human relations agency or ordinances relating to open occupancy. "I don't see any need for them," he said. Demonstrators would be treated like any other citizens, Partney said.

"We would treat outside persons like our own citizens. If one of our citizens would misbehave by rioting, naturally the police would arrest them. We would also do this to outside persons," he said. from the state nurseries at Jonesboro and at Havana that annually grow more than ALDERMEN'S PAY IS INCREASED IN BELLEVILLE The Belleville City Council Monday increased aldermen's 10,000,000 seedlings and shrubs Chemical and physical changes in foods caused by the addition of various ingredients About 85 per cent of the see pay from $25 to $50 a meeting or by using different methods dlings for District 3, Lewis under a new state taw permit- of cooking are being studied in notes, are red, white and scotch TWO-BUTTON CONTINENTAL SUIT pine.
