Rules Against
Cooper School
Eighth Judicial DistrictJudge
J. Kearney Brim hearing the
civil case of Cooper Independ-
ent School District and Delta
National Bank here last Thurs-
day, denied the school district’s
motion for summary judgment.

court would appreciate them
settling the matter privately,
thereby saving Delta County
some $500 in court costs should
it come to a jury trial.”
Judge Brim stated that he
gave both sides ways and means
of settling their dispute, and
urged all to combine their ef-
forts for the betterment of the
county and school.

Quite Week For law Officers
After a rash of accidents the
first week of the month, law
officials in Delta County have
experienced a relatively quiet
ten days with only one case of
theft, one accident and the usual
drunkeness and littering.
The theft occured to the of-
ficial patrol car of Deputy Sher-
iff Joe Maynard white he was in
a Paris hospital following an
emergency appendectomy on
Wednesday of last week. Deputy
Maynard told the Review that
while his car was parked at his
home in Cooper, someone dis-
mounted the radio aerials from
the vehicle. The theft of the
aerials left the Delta law of-
ficers without means of radio
contact as at the same time the
radio in Sheriff Benny Fisher’s
automobile was not working.
Highway Patrolman James
Barnard investigated one ac-
cident Saturday night six miles
southwest of Cooper on Highway
24.
The accident, which occured
about eight o’clock involved
Mrs. J. E. Ray of Route 1,
Klondike andStephen Vandygriff
of Commerce.
According to Patrolman Bar -
nard, Mrs. Hay, driving a i970
Ford northeast on SH24 at-
tempted a left turn at the West
Delta Community Center when
her vehicle was hit by Vandy-
griff, driving a 1966 Chevrolet.
Attempting to pass Mrs. Ray
as she was turning, Vandygriff
hit the left rear of the Ray ve-
hicle. Both cars sustained ex-
tensive damage.
Mrs. Ray, her daughter-in-
law, Mrs. John Ray, and child
were shaken-up in the mishap
as were Vandygriff, his wife,
and another couple in their car.

vent brucellosis” regulations.
Comments and feedback are
being invited from producers

Fannindel School Board Adopts
New Property Tax Rate, Base
The Fannindel School Board,
at their regular meeting Thurs-
day night, August 2, changed
the present tax base and rate
for the 1973-74 school year.
Since 1970, the school has
been assessing real and per-
sonal property at the rate of
$1.35 per one hundred dollar
valuation, based on 40% of true
value. Due to the rise in cost
of operating the school plants,
and the minimum wage in-
crease, it was necessary to
make the change. The new rate
will be $1.25 per one hundred
dollar valuation based on 50%
of true value.

Beginning with the 1973-74
school year, the Fannindel
school will be operating under
the Special Education Plan A
with the other schools of Fan-
nin County. Under this plan,
the school system will have
two Special Education teachers
along with one aide rather than
the one teacher. The teachers
will be Mrs. Linnie Wright and
Mrs. Thyra Brown and the aide
will be Mrs. ltebaCaskey.Since
1968, Mrs. Wright and Mrs.
Caskey have been paid with
Title I money received from
the Federal Government. Due
to the drastic cut of Federal
Funds these people might have
been lost to the system if it
had not been for Plan A, states
Alfred Conley, School Super-
intendent. The funds to pay
their salaries will come di-
rectly from the State.
Teachers working at the high
school this year will be H. L.
Milton, Principal;. Effie Hem-
bree, Billie Joyner, English;
Idonia Askew, science; Jewel
Parsons, business; Peggy Dur-
nam, libiaiiin, lonttny Lads,
mathematics; Donald Wright,
Tommy Longf-Tony R?*Uard.w;f>-
cial studies and coach; Ruth
Verner, remedial work.
Teachers working at the Ele-
mentary school at Pecan Gap
are Odus Walser, Principal;
Sherry Workman, kindergarten;
Coye Reid, first grade; Rosa
Melton, second grade; Odell
Tarpley, third grade; Kathleen
Walser, fourth grade; Brenda
W ittkohl, fifth grade, and Mur-
iel Burleson, sixth grade.
Vocational teachers are Mary
Hall, homemaking, and Rayford
Gibson, agriculture.
Lunchroom workers will be
Lena Shaw and Lucille Camp-
bell at the high school and Mar-
garet Montgomery, Juanita
Brooks and Irnogene Roderick
at the elementary school. Mary
Clements will serve as secre-
tary; Joy Conley, librarian aide;
Gwen Beeler, Title I aide;Nan-
cy Owens, Tax assessor-coll-
ector; H. L. Milton, Tommy
Long, Leeman Clark, Gwen
Beeler and Larry Ashley, bus
drivers.
The Fannindel Schools have
been receiving in excess of
$43,000.00 in Title I Funds.
With this money the school has
been able for several years to
employ three remedial teach-
ers, a full time librarian, a
librarian aide and two teacher
aides. This year the school
board has been notified that the
school will receive only $15,680.
This cut in funds will cause an
increase in the amount called
for locally.
