Commissioners last week re quested Traffic Engineer Fran- cis Burton to submit a tinai re-port on negotiations Tuesday in order that action might be taken to acquire the needed right-of-way from the railway. The city plans to slice through the YMCA and Alvarado cor-ners to channelize right turning movements.

Both corner properties are owned by Santa Fe. Offer to Sell The railway has offered to sell the property to the city at a cost of $4100 but only with the assurance that an on-street loading zone in front of the hotel be retained, which the city will not guarantee. If a friendly settlement had not been reached between the Santa Fe and the city by Tuesday, commissioners last week indicated they would authorize condemnation proceedings to acquire the right-of-way. Appraisal Presented An appraisal figure arrived at by a three-man board on value of the needed property wasjire-sented to the commission by Burton but was not made pub-He. The figure is believed to be about four times the price asked by the railway.

Santa Fe officials conferred briefly with the commission before the start of Tuesday's meeting, assuring commissioners they thought a satisfactory agreement on the right-of-way and loading zone problem could be reached within the next 30 days.

Policies Questioned Dr. Bashein announced his plans at a meeting of the school's board of rt-rears' the pedestrian signals. To complete the switch-over from the three-cycle "scramble system" to the new "share-the-green" system on the three key streets, an additional 75 neon signals are needed, Burton informed commissioners.

He also told commissioners the city traffic board has not yet made a recommendation as to whether the scramble system should be eliminated on Central but "will do so by the next meeting or two." Test signals using the new system are now in operation at the Third and Fourth street intersections with Copper. Various types of pedestrian signals also are being tested at the Third and Copper intersection. Based on the findings of the test intersection, Burton recommended accepting the bid of Technical Service Co. to supply the red (wait) and green (walkV indicators at a unit cost of $106.35, He said the supplier had agreed to provide the ad ditional 75 signals at the same price and make delivery by mid-July. Suppliers of several other types of incandescent signals bid unit prices ranging from $57 to $fi9 but Burtnn termed these signals "unsatisfactory because of lens reflection." He: also pointed out yearly power cost for the neon signals is almost $17 per unit less than1 incandescent signals.

Commissioners also awarded another contract to Technical Service for 23 mast-arm aluminum poles at a unit cost of $365. Westinghouse Electric Supply was awarded a contract! for one 12-foot aluminum pole at a cost of $232, After studying other bid tabulations, commissioners also awarded contracts to: Myers Co. of El Paso, $1002 for golf course equipment; Clowe and Cowan. of Roswell. $1268, clay pipe and branches for the sewer department, and Denver Brick and Pipe $6751, sewer pipe and other material.

Immediate Needs Supt. Charles Spain said that the system will make another application for federal funds this fall, for approximately $700,000. If the application is approved, a new junior high school in the northeast and an addition to Lavaland School will be proposed, he said. In proposing the allocation of funds, Spain said he feels the most immediate needs of the system are in the junior high and high school areas "although 10 elementary schools that we should build are having to be bypassed" at this time. Approval of the construction leaves approximately $200,000 of the bond funds unallocated, but Spain said that some school sites will have to be purchased! next year.

Approximately 000 had been budgeted for purchase of sites in the 1959-60 year, but the board voted Tuesday to spend $91,833.33 to pay off the balance the system owes the state on the new high school site, so that building can begin. Handling Addition Preliminary plans for the new school were approved Tuesday. It will be constructed along the same lines as the Rio Grande High School, according to the architects, Ferguson, Stevens, Mallory, Pearl and Associates. It will be a one-story building, covering about 104,000 square feet, and containing about 52 classrooms, library, cafeteria and gymnasium. Ex-ESC Director Gets U.S.

Jury Deliberates 20 Minutei, Clean Man Roy L. Woodard, 40, was cleared of a charge of contributing to the delinquency of a minor and statutory rape when a District Court jury brought in a verdict of innocent. The jury deliberated only 20 minutes. Woodard was represented by Atty. William Mar-chiondo, who said in his final argument that it is "extremely difficult" to make a successful defense in a case of this type due to the sentiment prevailing for the young persons involved.

The charges had been brought by a 15-year-old girl. Dist. Judge Paul Tackett presided. Misting Boy's Body Found at Clovis CLOVIS (1?) The body of 8-year-old Gregory Brock was found about 9:30 Tuesday night in a cesspool of the Snell Packing Co. The son of Mr.
