The "Easterby Gospel Singers" Singin ]'he "Easterby Gospel Singers" will present a gospel concert at Kamilche Valley Assembly September 30 at 7 roup p.m. This group has traveled extensively throughout the U.S.A. "'At least some of the budget cuts we had planned to make this year will not have to be made," Louise E. Morrison, director of Timberland Regional Library. informed the b~mrd of trustees at the regular monthly meeting Sept. 18 at the library system's service center. Timberland in the past month received two unexpected sums of money which will help make up some of the $54,000 revenue loss for 1975. Timberland staff had recommended cuts in various expenditures, and at the August meeting trustees learned that the staff suggested as a last resort that libraries be closed for three and one-half days to help make up the losses. Legion to host conference Watch I0:00 a.nl. ?, 10:00 p.lll Sunday ('ommander Claude Rick- ards of the Fred B. Wivell American Legion Post an- nounced this week that the local post will host the District Four Fall Conference Friday. Department Commander Richard Calahan and other department officers will be in attendance. District Commander Paul Gotham will preside at the meeting with James Grimes as master of ceremonies. There will be a social hour from 6 to 7 p.m. with dinner at 7 p.m. and the meeting at 8 p.m. The Journal last week listed Grimes as Post Commander. Rickards is Post Commander. Trustees, who are the group faced with actual decisions about budget cuts, will not be considering library closures for 1975. The board also advised the director that the materials budget could be unfrozen and ex- penditures for books and other materials could be made. The $54,000 revenue loss resulted from the inaction of the state legislature to release the Timber Excise Tax Reserve Fund as well as from other lower tax income. Additional funds came from unanticipated revenue from timber that was cut in Grays Harbor County. Gary Hulbert, a consultant with the firm of Donworth and Taylor, Inc., retained by the Timberland board to develop an employee classification plan, said he has narrowed the study to 30 job position descriptions. rel~rt on the use of Timberland's Wide Area Tele- phone Service (WATS) line was given by Alma Greenwood, reference librarian at the Olympia Public Library. The line is a toll-free number for patrons throughout Timberland to use to request information or materials. Requests for information are increasing, Mrs. Greenwood said. Mrs. Morrison reported that a video computer terminal will be installed at the Timberland service center sometime in October. The terminal will be connected with the computerized Washington Library Network, a system which makes it possible for libraries throughout the state to have access to information and materials. The system will speed and increase the borrowing of information and materials for all library users in Washington State. • Seven days a week.

At last week's regular Pioneer school board meeting the five-member board set Sep- tember 25 (tonight 8 p.m.) for the preliminary budget hear- ing. Following the budget hearing the board members will discuss three other topics: (1) take action on overcrowded classrooms; (2) present bus specifications; and (3) form a committee to plan for the future growth of the Pioneer School. The dates of the Washing- ton State School Directors Association meeting were announced as December 5, 6 and 7. At last week's board meeting John Trauba, chair- man, stated he planned to attend the meeting. Other dates of concern to the board are October 10 and 11, at which time the WSSDA will hold a legislative assembly meeting at Sea-Tac Inn in preparation for the 1976 session. The Shelton School District sent a request to Pioneer and Mary M. Knight Schools asking that the two third class districts apply separately from She]ton for the funding of the handicap program. Shelton feels that due to methods of state funding all concerned may benefit from this minor change. Pioneer and Mary M. Knight will apply together. The board received a request from Robert Fox that his youngest child be allowed to attend Shelton schools. After a brief discussion it was moved and seconded to deny the request. Mr. and Mrs. Carter sent a request that their child be allowed to attend kinder- garten in Shelton due to a time factor. The board voted to grant the request for one year only. The board stated that they had received three appraisals for the two pieces of property on Harstine Island. It was moved and seconded to call for sealed bids on the two pieces of property.
