Dose Journal Times Staff Eight men whose property assessing jobs in municipalities east of Interstate 94 were eliminated when the Kenosha County Board created a county assessing system have taken new jobs doing roughly the same duties. They are all still assessing and in their new jobs they are being paid by the body that abolished their old jobs, the County Board. Two of the men were town assessors, one was a city assessor and the others worked in the City of Kenosha assessor's office. John Higgins, former Town of Pleasant Prairie assessor, is the new county assessor. He was appointed by the County Board in November and took over Dec.

1, a month before the change became effective. Arthur M. Johnson, City of Kenosha assessor, and his staff of five appraisers and an MADISON, Wis. (AP) -Snowmobilers were urged by the Department of Natural Resources today to steer clear of deer, or to stop and turn around when deer are in their paths. 1 "In no instance should deer be driven in front of snowmobiles.

Tenure municipalities to keep their own board of reviews. At least three rural municipal boards Bristol and Wheatland Town Boards and Paddock Lake Village Board have moved to keep their own boards of review. Higgins believes all the non-city municipalities will keep their own boards pf review. "I have no objection as long as they run a good board of review," he said.

"If they don't play politics, fine." In municipalities which don't retain boards of review, a county board of appointed by the County Board i decided in August to set up the county assessor system, permitted by the 1969 Legislature. The move, effective Jan. 1, abolished the 12 village, town and city assessor offices in the county. Non-city areas opposed the change and when the County Board voted 18-8 to create the county the "Ayes" were cast by the 18 City of Kenosha supervisors and the "Nays" by the non-city board members.

The committee formed after the merger of the UW and state university systems late in 1971 is concluding preparation of legislation to govern the merged system.

The panel's proposals are expected to be sent to the legislature late this month for final approval. In other action, the committee suggested that the administrations of the UW and the state Vocational, Technical and Adult Education systems should begin to designate technical courses transferrable between the two systems. It contended a money charge on such courses, would be inappropriate. Nusbaum, who had earlier proposed that a tuition cost pegged at 25 per cent of operating cost be placed on all college transferable courses, said the university system was being forced to compete for students. "If the abilities of students to take low cost courses continued, we will be creating a no-charge competitive system," he said.

Eugene Lehrmann, director of the Board of Vocational, Technical and Adult Education, said any tuition charge would inhibit the vocational school's original objective. "Traditionally, vocational schools have been used by people wishing to find immediate employment," he said. "If we begin to certify courses for college credit we will not be following our mission." MADISON, Wis. (AP) Periodic review of the tenure status of University of Wisconsin professors was removed Thursday from legislation being prepared by the Merger Implementation Committee. The panel of lawmakers, regents and "bthers voted 6-5 to include instead a "review of faculty performance" unrelated to tenure decisions in its proposed bill.

rr Tenure is the job security given a faculty' member upon attainment of the rank of professor or associate professor. If a faculty member does not attain tenure in seven years, he usually loses his job. The decision on whether to grant tenure rests with a faculty member's tenured colleagues. A A proposal by Secretary of Administration Joe E. Nusbaum tenure be periodically reviewed was interpreted by spokesmen for the UW faculty as a threat to academic freedom.

"The faculties of all the campuses already have periodic, review of faculty performance and any additional tenure review would only cause confusion," said committee member Clare Penniman of the UW-Madison campus faculty. Nusbaum said substituting review of performance for review of tenure in the proposed bill would remove any implication that the regular protection surrounding tenure would be eliminated. The committee, after approving the review change, rejected a motion by Regent John La vine of Chippewa Falls to delete th 3 entire section. I A f.
