CHERIE WALKER LETTERS . . . ;0 THE EDITOR CORRECTION: Last week the minutes of the Millard Board of Education were published for the month of Febru ary. One paragraph was not woru-ed woru-ed correctly. The said paragraph read: "A note from Mrs. Alta Ash-by, Ash-by, former board member, was read requesting that after voting for e-lectrical e-lectrical heat for the new Delta Sr.-Jr. High School, she has request ed that it be made known that she favors coal heat rather than electrical elec-trical heat" It should have read: "Mrs. Alta Ashby changed her "yes" vote for electrical heat to "no" in a meet ing of the Millard Board of Educa tion which took place in special session at the Delta High School on January 14, 1965. The meeting was called to discuss changes which had been made in estimating the total cost of electrical htat. As a result of the information given at this meeting and information gathered gath-ered prior to this meeting, Mrs. Ashby changed her vote verbally and not by note. In the book "LAW AND PUBLIC EDUCATION" by- Hamilton and Mort, we read in the section en titled Local School Districts and Officers Powers and Duties, Chap ter 5, Despite the notice require ment, a meeting will be legal if, despite the lack of notice, all mem bers of the board attend and par ticipate in the meeting. Therefore, this meeting was not merely an informational in-formational meeting but a legal meeting of which, notes should have been taken. According to Robert's Rules ol Order, page 193: "A member has the right to change his vote up to the time the vote is finally announced. an-nounced. After that, he can make the change only by permission of assembly, which may be given by general consent; that is, by no member's objecting when the chair inquires If any one objects. If objection ob-jection is made, a motion may be made to grant this permission, which motion is undebatable." ' Since I was not informed of any objections to change of vote, I as sumed that the right to change my vote was accepted. As a matter of fact, at the close of the meeting, the voting stood tied Dr. Evans and Mrs. Alta Ashby voting "no' for electrical heat, with Mr. Jack Nelson and Mrs. Delma Jean Galli voting "yes". President Beck-strand's Beck-strand's vote was needed to break the dead-lock and he informed the board that he would like to have time to think about his decision. On the following Sunday, January 17, 1965, President Beckstrand informed in-formed Supt. Barney that he had decided to vote "yes". When Mrs. Ashby learned of this decision the following Tuesday, after calling the district office, she sent a letter of resignation to President Beck-strand Beck-strand with a carbon copy to Supt. Barney. Her resignation was a direct dir-ect result of the voting at the Jan uary 14th meeting. Furthermore, the architect had not been asked to proceed with the plans for electrical elec-trical heat at this time so no action had been taken on the plans which could not be changed. I am at a loss to know why this meeting has not been recorded as a special meeting when all pre vious meetings outside of the regular reg-ular board meeting wherein all the board members have been present, pre-sent, have been so called. It would seem that a meeting which resulted i , ''y sD. H.

CALCULUS PROBLEM Clinton MerreU, with the help of Mr. Jacobson, has been solving a problem for the District Supervisor of Transportation. The bus garage department has a cylindrical tank, buried on its side, 28 feet long and 8 feet in diameter with a capacity of 10,530 gallons. Mr. Lovell wishes to know the amount of gas contained con-tained in the tank at different levels, lev-els, to be readily evident with the use of a measuring stick. So far, 60 hours of mental computation in calculus has been needed to solve it, Clinton demonstrated this problem prob-lem for the parents on Parent j' Day. Students with such capacity are indeed an asset to D.H.S. Clinton Clin-ton appreciated the challenge and opportunity offered, since it proves that mathematics does work in a practical way. . .

Jim ' Porter, Larry Bliss, mm to State some - real top iellows, .it requires a great deal of sacrifice on the part of the fellows, to accomplish what they have accomplished this year. The- success, of these fellows has come about as a result of hard work, a good team spirit, "a good attitude toward other team members, mem-bers, coach and, life in general. They have a deep desire to achieve. They have a great deal 6 faith in the fact that if they work hard, live right, they can achieve their goals. It has been a real joy to know, these fellows. I have a great deal of faith in these fellows; : I know it will take a rriighty good team ; to toeat them. Win or lose we can be certain that they have given their all." Grant Bishop: "Well, I think the wrestlers are very good, they are well coached and in excellent condition con-dition and have lots of desire. If it's between Delta and Uintah, I think they -will take it. They are strong and in the lower weights they are in better shape. I am confident con-fident they will win because of three big things coach, condition, and desire."

I think they are great and they are just all right with me." Don Shie'ds: "I think the boys are a wonderful example of what young men ought to be. Certainly they will take State.
