The annual meeting, originally scheduled for April 6, elec- tinn 'niohr was nntrnnnpH a ajuppIt in nrHpr tn oivp rnwn Board must feel the pulse of the people in the community." Although the Board is a policy-making body, "its members must be aware that policies need amendment from time to time," she added. It must make policy changes necessary for the District's success; the final responsibility for a "smoothly operating School District lies directly upon the shoulders of the School Board, she concluded. Pohlers-Unified "Have we forgotten what education is all about?" asked James Pohlers, School Board candidate, as he spoke at his home at 1019 Ostergaard Ave. Thursday evening. Questioning whether the needs of students have been forgotten because of "community group pressures," Pohlers asked, "Are we forgetting to consider the Racine Milholland-Unified "A real communication of was urged by Mrs.

Ruth Milholland, School Board candidate, as she spoke to a group of senior citizens at St. Edward's Church, 1401 Grove Ave. She said a Board that functions does so through communication "sp that the foresight of individuals can cooperatively solve problems of the District." "Persons elected to the School Board must be responsible and ethical individuals are vitally interested in the well-being of the School District and who listen well to the people in the community and to other Board members." Mrs. Milholland also urged that a Board must be "aware of legislation affecting its operation and be willing to work for changes in statutes where necessary, in cooperation with the community. The employer as he seeks the 'right' high school graduate for position in his business?" He said students are asking for relevant, effective, practical and pertinent education, and that an employer wants a person who will improve and increase his business.

"Both want- education which will meet today's needs and serve tomorrow's growth. It must assure a lifetime of productivity." Urging that a curriculum be designed to fit elements of an adult world, Pohlers said employe skills should be learned in school: "Racine employers should not have to bear the expense of training a Unified high school graduate in office skills, as an exmaple. "Learning must have a goal and it must be pertinent to the adult world and I wish that could be the motto for the School Board," he added. Hunt-Unified "We must be careful not to turn people off," the Rev. Lawrence E.

Hunt, candidate for the Unified School Board, said Friday. "Too often we respond to people who are critical in such a way that they are not able to react positively to the school situation'. Speaking at the home of Mrs. Philip Crowell, 2315 Car-mel Rev. Hunt emphasized a need to be open to all people critical of the school system.

"All of us have a tendency to dismiss our critics with scorn rather than with concrete answers," he said. "We must understand and appreciate their situation and give our responses in the context of their situations and understanding rather than our own. Some of the people who have been strong vocally against the schools have become that way only after they have felt that their questions and concerns have been ignored or passed over lightly as not being important." Rev. Hunt also said the School Board must never become so involved and therefore so committed to what has been done in the past, that it cannot be open to critics and involve them in a positive way in developing education for the future, Iverson Caledonia Communication and cooperation are the key words in solving problems and aiding the growth of the community, according to George H. Iverson candidate for the second supervisor seat in the Town of Caledonia.

Speaking at a meeting at his home, Iverson said "with the Town Board and its citizens working together with for each other and the community at large, we can-effectively solve our problems." Iverson said he would like to see Caledonia develop into a well-planned prosperous community, based on the needs and wishes of the citizens. "Nothing can be accomplished without meaningful communication between the citizens of the community and their elected officials," he said. Rowley--15th A City Council candidate said that if elected she'll set aside a day a month to be at City Hall to confer with resident from her ward. "I find many people today who feel no direct relationship between themselves and government," said Mrs. Betty Rowley, aldermanic candidate in the 15th Ward.

"They feel alienated and frustrated." If elected, she said, she'll "set aside at least one day a month when I will be at City Hall to confer, discuss "or listen to suggestions from anyone from the 15th Ward." She spoke at a coffee at the home of Mrs. Leon Ap-plebaum, at 619 Carlton Drive. Mrs. Rowley, one of four candidates on the 15th Ward ballot next Tuesday, said the City Hall sessions would not replace normal communication on problems which arise but provide a more relaxed atmosphere to talk in greater detail.
