Drage Career Education Center came back into the picture Thursday night. Perry Township Fire Chief James W. Sanderson spoke in strong terms to the Stark County Area Joint Vocational Board of Education concerning fire hazards and the necessity of having water available. SANDERSON WAS disturbed because the board recently rejected a proposal to have a drainage pond on the site. The vo-ed school is to be built at 6805 Richville dr SW in Perry Township, beyond city water lines and fire hydrants.

"This building is going to be more or less isolated," Sanderson said, "and nobody to see it (a fire)." "Even though you have a fireproof, or fire resistant (stressing the word building, the possibility of fire is still very great. The things you put into the building will burn," he warned. "The shop area where you have paints and acids is an especially high hazard," he said. "In our business we look on the dark side," said Sanderson. North Canton man named Drage Center guidance director The Stark County Area Joint Vocational Board of Education Thursday night offered John R.

Smith of 215 Willaman st, North Canton, a two-year contract as director of guidance and pupil personnel for the district. Smith's acceptance of the contract hinges upon whether he can be released from his present contract as guidance supervisor for the Stark County Board of Education. His present contract (at $19,485.54) will expire July 27 of this year. SMITH EXPECTS the county board to consider his release at its next meeting Feb. 17.

A graduate of New Concord High School and Muskingum College (1946), Smith received a master's degree from West Virginia University hi 1952, and did additional graduate work at Kent State University in the field of guidance in 1961, in the field of supervision in 1965 and the field of vocational guidance in 1967. He served as a U.S.- Army Air Force glider pilot in Europe from 1942-45. He began a teaching career as coach and teacher at Roseville High School in 1946. He was head football coach at Marietta College for five years, coining to Stark County as athletic director at Glen wood High School in 1957. In 1961 he became guidance director at Lake High School and assumed his present position in 1966.

He is a member of the Stark Manpower Planning Council, and the Manpower Advisory Board, the Greater Canton Area Chamber of Commerce Education Steering Committee (which conducts liaison work between education and industry), the Ohio Survey Test Advisory Board, and is chairman of the North Central Association evaluation team. Smith originated a general aptitude test battery and the Ohio Vocational Interest Survey program which has become the model for the State of Ohio. In 1971, he received a meritorious service award for guidance in Ohio from the Ohio Department of Education and the Ohio School Counselors Association. Contract documents for the vocational school were approved and Clerk Paul Gribble was authorized to advertise for bids in 11 different areas. The bids are to be advertised Feb.

11 and are to be received by March 11. Areas of bidding will be general, plumbing, heating, electrical, carpet, cabinetry, metal lockers and metal shelving, and equipment for cosmetology, library, kitchen and food service departments. The completion date of the building was moved up from Aug. 15, 1977, to July 15, 1977. Administrative offices are to be completed by July 1, 1977.

William Dykes of Lawrence, Dykes, Goodenberger Bower architects presented working drawings of the proposed vocational school and said the overall cost estimate is up $37,000 from the close of the design development stage as a result of learning the accurate length of the sewer line connection. The board agreed to Dykes' proposal to install a small compacter in the waste room of the food service area as more feasible and less expensive than the use of an incinerator. Waste from the compactor will be hauled away. Garbage disposers will be used for some waste. The board voted 4-2 to install an Ohio Bell Telephone system in the vo-ed school rather than an independent system.

The type will be decided later. Wilbur Haas and. George Kishman voted "no" and Richard Horst abstained. The board also: Voted to make the final payment of $42,150 on the purchase of the site, making the district eligible for further matching funds. Approved a sewer route survey by the Shisler, Hunsinger Hoover engineering firm at a cost of $3,152.

JOHN R. SMITH Authorized the clerk to write a letter of intent to participate in the Kent State University intern program for vocational supervisors. Heard Director Anthony Zuppe report that he has made application for a $5,000 guidance from the Ohio Board of Education, that brochures to explain vocational education to ninth graders are in the hands of the printers, that brochures for eighth graders is also being planned and that his PRIDE evaluation of the district will be completed by the next meeting. Approved bills amounting to $48,242.21, including $46,600 in architectural fees. The next meeting will be held Feb.

26 at 8 p.m. in the architect's offices in the Country Fair Shopping Center. He spoke of the La Cuisina restaurant fire, the three recent fires in Perry Township churches "one of which we lost because of no fire hydrants" and numerous "set" fires at the Indian River School, the latter brought under control because a water line was extended to the area from the City of Massillon. WITHOUT a water supply, hazard insurance (for contractors during the construction period) will be high, Sanderson said, and a pond would be taken into consideration for insurance rating purposes. He recommended that the board reconsider the construction of a pond, the building of an underground reservoir, or the installation of a sprinkler system.

William Dykes of the Lawrence, Dykes, Goodenberger Bower architectural firm said that the board at this time does not have an insurance company but that in his investigation of the matter, he was informed that there would be no change in the fire insurance rate if a pond were constructed. He also said a sprinkler system could not be installed without a water tower. In explaining the board's decision against having a pond, Man sentenced on drug charge Timothy Penrose, 27, of 441 E. Cambridge st, Alliance was sentenced Thursday in Stark County Common Pleas Court to six months in the county jail for prohibited use of a building for hallucinogens. Judge Harold E.

DeHoff imposed the sentence after a jury returned a guilty verdict on the charge. The jury was unable to reach a verdict on a companion charge of possession of hallucinogens for sale. Donald AvduJ, Louisville board member, said that he learned from his insurance company that a pond would luive to be fenced and, even so, would be a liability for the board, requiring an excessive rate of liability insurance. The board also felt that the fence would be a maintenance problem. "We are concerned for our children," said Board President Richard Horst, "and we are spending the taxpayers' money.

We weighed the liability of a pond against the difference in insurance costs and this is the way we went. SANDERSON recommended that the board contact the Insurance Services Organization for further information on insurance rates. Sanderson, Dykes, School Supt. 'John R. Izzi and vocational director Anthony Zuppe will confer on the matter and make a recommendation to the board.
