He briefly stated the facts and figures compiled by the committee. Since 1950 there has been an 82"5 increase in the number of school children in the Roy portion of the district, Coleman said. That does not include those Roy students who form the majority in the Riverdale School. Further extensive housing subdivision plans which are in the final stages of preparation will boost the number of school children here tremendously Vrrn Thompson, local subdivision builder, stated that most of the incoming citizens are young couples with their young families. The law is that the commissioners arc required to consider only once every five years Before another five year period passes, the balance of representation would be greatly out of proportion, Mr Thompson said. In answer to Commissioner Carver's query. Mr. Coleman staled that his committee, after meeting with the leaders, makes the recommendation that those two schools join with the northwest district. Nine schools arc at present in that district. The expressed opinion of the investigating committee was that Hooper and Kanesville would stand a much better chance of equal representation if they were to be removed from what promises to become an oversized group. Bryce Jensen, the local school board member, brought up the fact that this is an election year in the northwest district. A decision in the near future would be advisable in order that those residents would know where they stand. This was only the first step in achieving his ambitions, however. After graduating from the public schools in White Deer, Texas, he enrolled in the Waylen Baptist Academy and Junior College at Plain View, Texas. His education was interrupted by the war almost before he had had a good start at it, but after serving his country as an anti aircraft fighter and engineer for the U. S. Army In North Africa, Europe and in the Pacific, he resumed his studies at Waylan. He spent his last year in college at the Grand Canyon - University in Prescott, Ariz.
