Cross said today negotiations on teacher salaries will begin soon and that he expects the school board to offer a "substantial" raise. At the same time, he said the school board tonight is expected to approve a new negotiation policy on teacher pay raises and related issues.

Cross said the new negotiation format is designed to give teachers "better" representa- tion before the board and that official approval is "highly likely" because the plan was drawn up jointly by the board and a teachers' committee. On pay raises, he dispelled any possibility that the board will consider granting anything close to the being sought by teachers in District 1. "I don't feel it ($1,000 raise) is at all feasible under the new slate school aid law and with respect to other financial conditions," said Cross. "I feel the board will make AT DRAFT PROTEST Witness Says He Saw No Serious Trouble A defense witness testified today that he did not see any serious disturbance Dec. 4 at an a i-draft demonstration in front of Selective Service headquarters, 110 S.

A medical examiner said it was suicide. Bradby, 38, was slumped over the steering wheel of the car. A hose was rigged through a taped-shut window vent from the exhaust pipe. He had started a political career last fall by ousting Charles City Sheriff M. D.

Lampkin, a Democrat, -who had held the post for 43 years. Bradby became a symbol to members of his race of their increasing political strength in the South. "There was no indication of foul play," said Commonwealth Atty. J. Madison Macon who investigated the death.
