Observatory plan on Mt Agassiz meets forest rules
The University proposed an infra red observatory on Mt Agassiz with a $20,000 building and use of the Show Bowl chairlift, but the Coconino National Forest denied the initial request and reconsideration. The council endorsed preservation of the Peaks crest while allowing restricted observatory work under Forest Service supervision if local decisions are overridden. Lectures discussed cross country use, fire and brush thinning, and a cinder rally, amid differing opinions on development and protection.

County Salary Hike Bill Returns to Committee
The Arizona Senate sidetracked a county official pay hike bill by sending it back to the Appropriations Committee after two committees had approved it. The plan would raise county official salaries about 40 percent and let boards boost pay by 30 percent without legislative approval, a provision later stricken. The measure also included raises for county attorneys and sheriffs as part of a broader law enforcement upgrade. In other action, the Judiciary Committee advanced a proposal to appoint judges through eight member commissions modeled on Missouri law, with voter approval required for retention. A compromise placed three lawyers and five laymen on the commissions, with gubernatorial and Senate consent, and all appointive judges facing voter retention.

Ft Grant Probe Delay Likely Until Legislature Adjourns
Allen Cook, director of the Arizona Department of Corrections, says the investigation of the Industrial School for Boys at Ft. Grant may be delayed until after the current legislative session ends. The delay could stem from the lack of an out-of-state expert to conduct the inquiry, following Gov. Jack Williams order after many runaways were reported at the facility.
