Center Casper's Flower Numbe: 237-2577 Teachers Ask Special Session of Legislature The Casper Midwest board was asked Wednesday night by the Classroom Teacher's Association to send a resolution to Governor Stan Hathaway requesting a special legislative session to raise the amount of money given by state to the schools from $8200 per classroom unit to $8500.

Ed Brennan, president of the association, said during a meeting of the board, that the state school foundation program had a $4,000,000 surplus which would easily allow the increase. The alternative to raising the amount of state aid is for local school boards to increase their mill levies. Brennan feels this is a hardship on many areas and the state should bear more of the cost of education anyway. The suggestion that this resolution be sent was given during discussion of the $8.000.000 1967- 1968 budget for the Natrona County High School District and School District No. 2.

Board member H. E. Summerford presented the budget of 217,525 for the high school district and $2,839,167 for district No. 2 a total of $8,560,692. The board discussed the rise in mill levy of 2.38 mills for both maintenance and operations and bonds and interest for the year, Summerford credited the increase to the decrease in county property assessment, the grad- De Gaulle's Image Badly Tarnished By STEWART HENSLEY WASHINGTON (UPD)Diplomatic officials here feel that French President Charles de Gaulle's behavior in Canada has irreparably tarnished his image as a statesman so far as the Western world is concerned.

They are uncertain, however, as to the ultimate effect on international affairs of the flasco that has sent De Gaulle in haughty flight back to Paris ahead of schedule after drawing an official rebuke for meddling in Canadian internal affairs. While the French leader's capacity to influence the course of events may have been diminished, his ability to disrupt cooperative efforts of the Allies remains unimpaired, He can wield vetoes in the United Nations and the European Common Market long as the French people keep him in power. In that connection, there was considerable interest here in the fact that the French press appeared dismayed over de Gaulle's blatant appeal to Quebec separatist sentiment in Canada, The Johnson administration maintained a discreet silence. It wanted to avoid giving the impression that the United States, which has been one of De Gaulle's principal whipping boys, was taking any pleasure in his situation. A State Department spokesman replied with an emphatic "No, sir," when asked whether there would be any formal comment on the affair.

However, De Gaulle's actions, his possible motivation and the eventual results made up the bulk of conversation in State Department corridors and along Embassy Row. The words most frequently used in official circles to describe his conduct were "absolutely incredible." These applied to his interference in Canadian internal affairs rather than his warning to the citizens of that country to "safeguard their substance and their against the United States. Washington has become accustomed to De Gaulle's repeated criticism of American policy and actions and his warnings to the rest of the world to beware of domination by Washington, The consensus was that De Gaulle's effort to project the idea of French grandeur had finally reached a ludicrous extreme and might mark the beginning of the end for him. There was little evidence of any official tendency here to rejoice over De Gaulle's predicament. The average American official- even those who have been most bitter in the past against De Gaulle's operationsappeared to view the spectacle more in sorrow than in anger.

London Trip BONN (UPI) West German Chancellor Kurt Georg Kiesinger will visit London October 23 for two days of talks with Prime Minister Harold Wilson and other government leaders it was announced Wednesday. ual phasing out of inventory tax and various increased expenses including salaries. "We're all agreed the budget is close to the wire," said Dr. Nate Fowler, board chairman. "It's defensible, necessary and just barely within our income." This year's budget leaves a leeway for the 1968-1969 budget of only about one mill, just enough to cover social security and retirement plan increases.

Final adoption of the budget came at a breakfast meeting Thursday in the Gladstone Hotel. The three hour meeting was by no means devoted to budget problems. Bob Clark, executive secretary of the Wyoming High School Activities Association, presented the group's new program for inter scholastic girls athletics in the state. The program suggests four seasons including various athletic pursuits archery, golf and volley ball in the fall; skiing and gymnastics in early winter; swimming, basketball ing in late winter; and tennis, track and softball spring. One of the rules of the program is that meets should be at such a distance that no overnight trips need be taken.

One of the board members, Mrs. Earl West, suggested that this would be rather limiting and the rule should be changed if possible. Another Item in the program stated that coaches and teachers should be qualified women faculty members. Objections were also raised on this point because in some schools it would be necessary to double up on teaching a sport such as golf. Among the other regulations are no championships may declared, only certificates of participation may be awarded no admission charges can be made for girls' events and no cheerleading allowed.

Maurice H. Griffith, school superintendent, thought that the program can be lived with in spite of its limitations for the present. Mrs. West suggested that Casper lead the state in getting its girls athletic program under way. It might even schedule a swimming or track meet for a start.

The board also decided to have its meetings in various locations in the districts, including Midwest, during the next school year. Russell Alexander suggested that by sending special invitations to parents and others in the areas schools, pernaps more interest in the board meetings could be created. It was also suggested that the agenda of the meetings as well as their time and place be published in the newspaper the day before as an added inducement for people to attend the sessions. Six teachers were accepted for employment for the coming year Anthony B. Hawthorne, industrial arts; Mrs.

Virgil Harrison, kindergarten; Miss Eileen Marie Kreamer, second and third grades; Miss Evelyn Mae Kreamer, fourth grade; Mrs. Bettye Jean Cunningham, kindergarten; and Mrs. Elizabeth Ann Edlin, business education. Leave was granted to Mrs. Ellen Josephson and the resignations of Mrs.

Catherine Meyer, Mrs. Sandra Nemeck Borlo, and Miss Lurleen A. Bush were accepted without prejudice. Other items of business were the selection of Raab, Roush Gaymon as auditors for the extra-curricular funds the the disenc. finansion of a report cing of schools belonging to the Associated Public School Systems, which includes CasperMidwest, and a discussion of a report compiled by Kelly Walsh on the reason teachers resign.

It was concluded that most teachers resign for family reasons or because they are dissatisfied in some way.

WASHINGTON (UPI)- The general manager of Hearst Newspapers today rejected as a "myth" suggestions that investors are clamoring for a chance to launch new big city papers.

O. Markuson gave the Senate antitrust and monopoly subcommittee a somber picture of the plight of metropolitan dailies and endorsed the "failing newspaper bill" now before it, The bill would give limited antitrust exemption to competing papers that enter "joint operating mergbeing their printing, advertising and circulation functions while maintaining separate editorial departments, Markuson, in prepared testimony, said the pressure on metropolitan newspapers arise from increasing labor, equipment and raw materials costs and the growing competition for advertising revenues from broadcasting and suburban papers. He noted that hundreds of big city papers have disappeared in the last half-century, and "there is no reason to believe that this steady attrition will stop." "It has been suggested by some witnesses at these hearings that there are many new potential entrants, anxious to establish newspapers in urban areas where existing pers are declining or falling," Markuson said. "this is a myth, New publishers have neither earnestly nor actively sought entry into a distressed newspaper market, and in the few instances where attempted, failure usually has resulted." He said hard-pressed papers usually are faced with a choice of going out of business, selling out to a competitor or entering some kind of merger or joint operating agreement, per Troopers snapped in the wind that was blowing during the service. The Troopers were dressed in copies of the uniforms worn by the 11th Ohio Cavalry in that battle long ago.

The Trooper Color Guard and the Drum and Bugle Corps both went through a drill to open the pageant. Mrs. Edna Kukura read an account of the battle in which all 27 troopers and Lt. Collins died in an effort to save Custard's wagon train. A loud speaker lent by the school system had an extension to the back of the fort so that the Troopers, who retired to the rear of the fort after their performance, were able to hear the reading of the story of the battle.

The spectators were welcomed by Mayor Robert Hildebrand, who was high his praise of the Ft. Caspar Commission, which he said had put so much effort into restoring the fort and keeping it in condition. While the Troopers played muffled drums, 27 other members of the corps represented those who had been killed in the battle, Capt. Kaye Lord of the Home Shelters To Be Resurveyed Emerick Huber, county civil defense director, said that there will be a re-run on the home shelter survey that was recently conducted, He said that response to the survey was not as good as it should have been. A follow up letter will be mailed to all those persons who did not fill out and return the survey form, Mailing day will be Friday, July 28.

Huber said that another copy of the survey questionnaire will be enclosed with the Friday follow up letter. National Guard read the order which changed the name of the fort to Ft. Caspar memory of Lt. Collins, and the roll call. The roll call' was answered by the Troopers, who are about the same age as those other troopers were at the time of the battle.

The National Guard firing squad fired a salute of three volleys before the bugler sounded retreat during the lowering of the flag. The flag that flew over the fort Wednesday was the 36-star flag that was the national emblem 102 years ago. Two. of the Troopers played Echo Taps to end the ceremony.
