City school budgets found higher DAYTON. Ohio (AP) Families who moved from the cities to the suburbs in the 1960s hoping to find better funded education for their children might consider moving back, says a team of Wright State University researchers. John Treacy, associate "professor of economics, and Russell Harris, have released findings showing school districts within Ohio cities outspent their suburban counterparts by about 15 per cent during the school year 1970-71. Since the education boom of the 1960s, said the researchers, educators have assumed that money spent per pupil was higher in the suburban schools than in city schools. While that may have been true then, it is not true in the 1970s, they said.

They blamed a steady increase in the number of school age children in the suburbs, coupled with relatively fixed tax bases, as a big part of the cause. During the school year, city school districts averaged expenditures of $819 per pupil, compared with $711 per pupil in suburban districts, the report Monoxide kills three mutes CANTON, Ohio (AP) Three deaf persons died in Canton Sunday when they apparently weren't aware the engine of the car was running in the garage and were overcome by carbon monoxide, authorities said.
