July 31, 1964 PRESS, Binghamton, N. Y. 3 Oneonta Still Seeks Candidate For Adult Education Director Press Bureau Oneonta The post of Adult Education Director, empty since George Waddington's resignation June 30 after 14 years with the Oneonta Consolidated School District, is still an open question. The Board of Education had planned to appoint a successor to direct the widely-used and popular program at its regular meeting. Harold V.

Hager, superintendent of schools, today said, however, no appointment was made simply because there was no one recommended Wednesday. He added, though, that he thinks a suitable candidate can be found by the time of the board's next meeting. "We're hoping to fill the post with someone from within our own organization, someone who's a year-round staff member," he said. THE MAIN reason for this approach, being due to of familiarity with the school system and proximity to the details involved. Mr.

Hager said the adult program director would probably be spending a third of his time in that position and fill the duties of a two-thirds teacher as well. of course he'd be needed to be there (at the school) during the evenings."
