In addition to making known our choice for representation in the Congress of the United States, we are being asked to decide a matter which will greatly influence the future of public education in the state. Constitutional Amendment 1, on your ballot next November 7, if passed will provide that' the State Superintendent of Public Instruction shall be the administrative officer of the State Board of Education, and that he shall be appointed by the Board. The second constitutional amendment would act to delete the name of the Superintendent of Public Instruction from the list of the states elective officers, and thus make appointment of the chief state school officer legally possible. The State Superintendent is the educational leader of the state, presiding over our school systems from kindergarten through junior colleges and adult education programs. He should be the finest educational statesman obtainable. The present political method does not guarantee professional qualification and fitness for the position. Often top professional people will not run the political gamut to get the position of chief ' state school officer. Students of the problem, including education committee members of the U. S. Chamber of Commerce and the Council of State . Governments, believe that an elected, nonpartisan board can best choose a school administrator by considering all candidates calmly and on the basis of their professional Where the board of educaqualifications. tion is elected by the people, this method protects the public interest without sacrificing public control. The special National Education Association committee, which recently studied the organization and administration of Uths state education agency, reported that sound administration in the states department of education can be effectively accomplished only where the State Board of Education, without restrictions, selects the chief state schQol officer who serves at the pleasure of the Board. Under this method the board is free to choose the most competent person it can , find without regard to party affiliation, thus making possible the removal of the office from partisan politics. These factors tend to attract candidates of high calibre and make possible continuity and long-terplanning for a more efficient educational program, they reported. Passage of Amendments 1 and 2 will comin our plete a strong school organization state and clarify the relationship of the Superintendent and the Board by placing the g on the responsibility for elected Board. As its administrator, the Superintendent would be responsible for carrying out the Boards policies. This w ould provide for the same organization setup on a state level that functions so successfully in each of the 40 school districts of our state.

Eleven others, Arkansas, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, Missouri, New Hampshire, New York and Texas, now provide for appointment of their superintendent by an elected board. Reports from industrial, civic, and educational leaders of these states show the system is working successfully in these states. m a With Bushnell, policy-makin- non-politic- al The Mighty Deer Hunter Editor Bo Elder News and Journal Dear Sirs: I am in possession of a letter from Frederick P.

The buck suddenly jumped straight in the air and I knew Id have to shoot him when he hit the ground or he would tear into the brush and Id never see him again. I raised my gun and squeezed the trigger and squeezed the trigger and squeezed it harder. The deer took off for the brush without me ever getting a shot of I didnt have the weapon loaded. Why I pressed so hard on that trigger I had bent it clear back to the finger guard. And so go the dozens of hunting stories, now that deer season is underway and so will they go after the season until next year when a new set of stories will replace this years. It would be a man of letters who could put into words the reason or reasons the greater portion of the male population give civilization back to the women every fall, hoist their guns to their back, and take off for the tall cedar. They come back after a few days or a week of tusseling with the elements in search of a deer smelling like a 10 year-ol- d wood ticks sage hen, with a coupla-thre- e usually attached, and with their hands and faces tanned a deep brown, except for dozens of white scratches from coming to blows with needle sharp underbrush. For one or two 15 or 20 second shots at an elusive deer, modern man, at least a great many of them from this area, will take on the life of Jim Bridger and love every minute of it. Facts BaOK'aGHE'?
