The group is expected to organize in order to give mutual support in fighting the issues which they feel deprive nonIndians of rights.

Month climaxes in 'the tickets for which are (Tribune Photo) Because last year's State Fair was the best yet financially with nearly 25 per cent increase in attendance and $600,000 generated, this year's format will be about the same, but shortened one day with a beef show featuring different breeds on different days. In a talk to the Great Falls Kiwanis Club, Jay Nettleton, assistant manager in charge of non-fair activities, said that non-fair activities such as the Spring Horse Races, sport show, building and picnic rentals and cattle sales, generated $55,000 last year, compared to $6,000 in 1970. The cattle show was dropping off because livestock men couldn't be away from home for a full week, Nettleton explained, so this week year a breeder can stay two days and fairgoers can see different breeds on different days. The night show had been dropping off the past few years so last year the price paid for talent was lowered. The result: attendance lower yet.

At the Fair managers' meeting Bill Chiesa was told by experts that was the wrong way to people will pay high prices for topnotch talent, so big-name entertainment and high prices will be the ticket this year, according to Nettleton. "We committed $75,000 to the night show last year and this year with one less night, we'll spend only a little he said. There was a good advance ticket sale from out of town. Four thousand came from Butte and 2,500 from Helena last year with advance tickets. Nettleton said there will be an effort to clean up and and change the atmosphere of the carnival.

It has been tried before, he said, but is difficult because it has the "poorest kind of employment setup." The carnival cames here from Canada and has three days to hire about 300 people, all of whom are supposed to be on the welfare rolls. The horse racing program will be 10 days this year, the same as before. Last year afternoon racing attendance was up nearly 50 per cent and about was spent through pari- mut Audit critical of Falls school Tribune Capitol Bureau HELENA A legislative audit of the Great Falls State School for the Deaf and Blind is critical of that institution's foundation which has assets of $97,168. The foundation consists of bequests from persons and estates and is controlled by the school personnel. The audit notes that the foundation is not actually a legal entity, does not have trustees serving in a fiduciary capacity and is not part of the state treasury system.

The audit was done on a contract by Peterson and More, certified public accountants of Great Falls. It says that state law provides that the state treasurer is designated the treasurer of every state agency and institution. The law also requires that each state agency deposit daily with the state treasurer or a bank designated by the state treasurer. "Receiving grants without depositing them in the state treasury is contrary to law," the report said. The audit, accepted by the Legislative Post Audit Com- mittee recommends that the school deposit all assets from the foundation with the state treasurer and record all transactions involving these funds as part of the statewide budgeting and accounting system.

Legislative auditor Morris Brusett said he will report to the committee at its next meeting how the money is being spent. School Supt. Floyd McDowell said that the press of business has prevented him from getting around to making the foundation a legal entity. But he did say that any ex- Man booked in burglary and drugs possession Robert R. Gladue, 19, 1217 4th Ave.

Eighty per cent went to the bettors and 20 per cent was retained for expenses. Only $3000 was realized from pari-mutuels, Nettleton said, but concessions connected with the races were profitable. For instance, the $2 racing admissions brought in about $30,000, beer sales netted $20,000 and the food concessions $10,000.

Total gate admissions in 1975 brought in carnival parking lot rental, food sales, commercial space rental, $25,000. No more money will be put into fair buildings until it is known what will happen on the multi-purpose building proposal, the speaker concluded. penditures made by the foundation are approved by the State Board of Public Education. "'There is no unilateral decision on how the funds are spent on my part," he said. McDowell said the matter will be referred to the board for some action.
