PUBLIC NOTICE ACADIA PARISH SCHOOL DOARD Th Acadia Parish School Board, Dtparhnont of Special Education, will hold a public moating to discuss tht program plan tor special education services for 1981-82. DATE: WEDNESDAY, JUNE 24, 1981 TIME: 7:30 P.M. PLACE: ACADIA PARISH SCHOOL DOARD OFFICE 3 Designates More Trust Fund BATON KOUUE. La. lUPI) Tiny North Louisiana towns overburdened by population increases from lignite mining endeavors mby get some help from a 9240 million state trust fund that is rapidly being eaten up by the Senate.

Members of the Senate Natural Resources Committee boosted the allotted portions of the Enhanced Mineral Income Trust Fund to 40 percent Thursday by unanimously approving a request by Sen. Don Kelly to designate 20 percent of die fund to help offset the impact of lignite mining. Earlier in the week, the Senate voted to allot another one-fifth of the fund to help the state's coastal parishes cope with the impact of the oil industry and to help find ways to rebuild the deteriorating Louisiana coastline. A proposal to use another 20 percent of the fund to help municipalities build new schools failed in a Senate committee earlier this week. The trust fund wu established two years ago to uve some of Louisiana's oil and gas riches for the day the mineral resources are depleted.

Under the 1979 law that set up the fund, $240 million is scheduled for deposit this year. But Gov. Dave Treen wants the Legislature to wait until a special session later this year to decide whether to save the money or spend it. Kelly's proposal would set up a board, made up largely of appointees by the governor, to award and loan out the money to help towns improve roads, schools, sewer or water systems anything burdened by large increases in population. "We're cast in the same situation as the energy impacted areas of South Louisiana," Kelly uid.

CROWLEY, LA SUPPORT THE ARTS Members of the Crowley Art Association invite you to become a "Friend of The Gallery" for 1981. This group, all volunteers, is dedicated to promoting art in Acadia Parish and surrounding areas, and is sponsored by the Crowley Art Association, a non-profit organization I Since the acquisition of The Gallery at 414 East Northern in March, 1980, we are happy to report to you some of our progress. We are supporting both Crowley I High Schools' art departments with needed supplies. We are subsidizing the existing visual arts scholarship to a student from the Crowley area attending LSUE. Art education has been furthered through our workshops here at The Gallery.

Among the workshops that we have held are classes in pottery, oil and watercolor, portrait painting and drawing. Area schools have taken advantage of our facility as a spot for field trips. Many civic clubs have used our facility for their monthly meetings and taken advantage at that time to learn more of our cultural achievements. Monthly one-person exhibits, opening with a reception open to the public have been well attended. Seventy-two volunteers have served to staff and maintain The Gallery.

These were recently honored with a luncheon. Seventy-five regional and local artists have shown and are currently showing through The Gallery. The guest register shows over 700 names of visitors from outside the Crowley area. The Crowley City Council and the Acadia Arts Council have cooperated with us to make the public aware of our location. Projected plans are to enlarge and enhance the existing facility to accomodate our growing needs.

Donations have made all of this possible. Without continued support, the Crowley area would not have the benefit of a cultural center such as The Gallery and the opportunites which it affords. Annual membership in Friends of The Gallery is as follows: Partron $200 or more Sponsor M00-M99 Organization $25-'99 Family-Individual Public acknowledgment in The Gallery, as well as in the news media, will be made of all who participate.
