"'At least some of the budget

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.

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.

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.
