Allyn sewage job gets the go-ahe A contract for the Allyn Pump Station Improvement Project was awarded by the Mason County Commission over some objections. The winning bid on the job was made by Pape &amp; Sons, Incorporat- ed of Gig Harbor in the amount of $234,198.75. This project is designed to in- crease overflow capacity and reduce the potential for a sew- age spill into marine waters at a pump station located along the shores of North Bay. A sewage spill at this thcility results in the closure of prolific commercial and recreational shellfish beds in the area. Commissioner Tim Sheldon noted that the engineer's estimate for the project was $129,851.79, which is about half what the com- pany ended up gaining in its bid. Acknowledging that the project had been delayed from its earlier schedule and as a result would need to be done in the winter, which could cost more, Sheldon still wanted to wait longer and not approve the amount at that time. "Time is of the essence here," Commissioner Ross Gallagher said. Gallagher noted that the agree- ment calls for the work to be done by November 1, which is when New crew for women's club (Continued from page 19.) which will be distributed to the Pioneer School by Neuerburg.

Students who enjoy running and want to get in shape should see Mr. White in Room 412 or meet the cross-country runners any day at Highclimber Stadium at 3 p.m. for more information about cross- country. THE FIRST SESSION of driv- er's ed at SHS started on Wednes- day, September 12, with the class running from 2:40 to 4:40 p.m. Stu- dents who want to be in the next session should register with Susan Carroll at the Activities Window. The student will need to make a down payment of $150. See Mr. Apple in the office after school if you're signed up for the first ses- sion and you need a waiver form to get your permit.
