"In a growth district like this it really hurts," he said. Under the present program the district is getting only about $80 annual state aid for each pupil instead of the- $125 it should be. getting, he asserted. Cusanovich't Bill State Sen. Lou Cusano--vich JRrNorthridge) is the author of SB 638.

Salinger is optimistic about approval although a similar bill was left stranded at the last session. The number of districts statewide that would benefit by such a bill has increased over last year, he said. Las Virgenes, however, would receive 15 of the additional $890,000 it would increase the state school aid budget if the bill' is approved, Salinger said. Pre-Season AGOURA Approval of a bill now before the Legislature could boost state aid by $120,000 next year to the fast-growing Las Virgenes Unified School District, Supt. Dr.

Herbert Salinger predicted. The bill (SB 63p) would put state aid on a current enrollment basis, said Sa linger. Las Virgenes schools are receiving $125 from the state for each pupil based on last year's enrollment of present enrollment is 3,000, Salinger explained. "Next year we expect to grow by another 1,000 pupils but unless this bill is passed we will be receiving state aid only for an enrollment of the present 3,000," he said. The lag in aid means that the school tax rate in Las Virgenes is 20 cents higher than it would be if the state aid were based SHELTERS STOCKED Kittens or Urged for Valley residents are being urged by the Department of Animal Regulation to give kittens and puppies as Easter gifts instead of rabbits, baby chicks and ducklings.

Noting that Easter Sunday with its traditional animals gifts falls on April 14, the department warned potential sellers of small animals of city regulations against cruelty. A department spokesman said a permit must be obtained from the department before engaging in the business of selling animals. He cited a city ordinance which makes it unlawful to display, sell, for sale, barter or give away rabbits, chicks, ducks or other fowl and regulations vr: forbidding the sale or dis-play of creatures that have been dyed or colored.

Request for Traffic Signals Turned Down ENCINO A request for traffic signals at Ventura Blvd. and Densmore Ave. has been rejected by City Council's Traffic Committee. The Encino Improvement Assn. is seeking the signals to reduce hazard and provide a more orderly control of traffic.

"The crossing at the intersection has become very heavily traveled, both from the vehicular and pedestrian standpoint, due to the concentration of large group operations in the area such as a synagogue (Valley Beth Shalom) and other business activities," wrote R. J. Tiorito, association official. Rejection Recommended However, the.committee decided to recommend council rejection of the request, pointing out that city Traffic Engineer Sam Taylor reports there is no need for signals at the intersection. Taylor said Ventura Blvd.

is a major highway and Densmore St, is a local street in a residential area. "field study, traffic count and, analysis of ac- cidents indicate Installa- tion of traffic signals is not warranted," he said. i VAN NUYS PALMS Let Us Help You Beat the Heat BONANZA AIR CONDITIONING CORP. will add a Payne 3 ton refrigerated AC system to your existing AC forced air fur- nace including normal electrical for only $975.00 complete.
