Nuclear expert to speak Carl J. Hocevar, former safety expert for the Atomic Energy Commission, will speak on "Nuclear Power: Is It Safe?" at The z~vergreen State College in Lecture Hall One February 5 beginning at 7:30 p.m. Sponsored by the Evergreen Speakers' Bureau, the Presentation is free and open to the public. Hocevar, now employed by the Union of Concerned Scientists, resigned from the Atomic Energy ~r°:m~snon in 1974, saying he felt the commission was ignoring advice experts on reactor safety problems.

The board of trustees of the Timberland Regional Library accepted two-bids for 16 mm film projectors at its monthly meeting at the library system's service center in Lacey January 16. The board then decided to sell the remaining six used projectors to those willing to pay $200 each. The film projectors are Bell and Howell and Singer-Graflex models and still have many years use left. They, however, are not in the prime condition necessary for the constant daily use required by the library system. The board was visited by Judy Louderback who represented McCleary Real Estate and provided the board a list of available properties in West Olympia and the dma-McCleary area. The board took the list under consideration as possibile sites for a new service center in the future. The board also reviewed a letter by a Chehalis banker which said the old Sears building in downtown Chehalis was available for $1,500 a month rental fee. Any area seriously considered for a new service center must meet several requirements including local post office able to handle large volumes of mail, availability of employable clerks, location near highways for courier service to all corners of the library district, sufficient parking space and availability of meal facilities. Mrs. Louise Morrison, director, reported to the board that during the last year there was a dramatic increase in film bookings. In 1973 Timberland-loaned films had an audience of 205,502 and in 1974 the audience total increased' to 399,317~ There was also a high increase in the use of magazines. Mrs. Raeburn M. Hagen, Timberland board member from Aberdeen and member of the Washington Library Association Executive Board, outlined Guy. Dan Evans' budget for the Washington State Library and remarked that it was a "bare bones budget." The board agreed to support all the expenditures for the state library proposed in the governor's budget for the next biennium. On recommendation of the director and based on an employe survey, the board announced its intent to amend the personnel policy so that the official work week begins midnight Sunday and ends midnight Sunday. Previously, the official work week began and ended on midnight Friday. This was scheduled because it allows many ¢mployes who work every other Saturday to have three day weekends. However, the main reason the majority of employes disapproved of this arrangement is that it forced them to work six days without a day off. If this policy is changed no employe will work a calendar week without two days off. The board voted to ratify the 1975 working agreement with the AFSCME, AFL-CIO, Local 2053. The working agreement is basically the same working agreement from 1974. The meeting was adjourned after the board agreed to a tentative meeting with the Friends of the North Mason Library January 25 where they will discuss plans for a new library building in Belfair.
