Budget puzzle looms as school board tackles 1974 75 figures
The board approved a 1974-75 budget of 37 445 295 with officials unsure where an extra 20 000 would be spent if it exists. A 959 650 discrepancy is spread across six categories from 46 000 to 521 000. Harry Harvey says recalcining finances in these categories will reveal actual need for fiscal 1974 75. Supt. William Bell hopes the 220 000 will wash out in the review. The key question remains how much money will be needed.
