Logan Board Approves Purchase Of New 66 Passenger Bus
The Logan board of education approved a 66 passenger bus purchase with a $6580.29 base bid from W H Chevrolet of Logan plus Superior body and a trade in. Other bids were $6916 from Northeast Garage for an International bus and $7119.25 from Tansky Motors for a Dodge bus. The state covers 70 percent of new bus costs on approved bids. The board also appropriated $40 113 46 certified under an amended 1961 budget with about $28 000 added to the general fund. A November deficit of about $8 000 was offset by $89 000 in state foundation funds after settlement. December bills totaling $56 728 will leave roughly $24 000, with $7 000 obligated for carryover. George Blosser said borrowing or an advance draw on the Oct 1961 personal tax settlement may be needed to operate until funds arrive. The state has not reimbursed cafeteria expenses for the first three months, costing $12 842. Superintendent Harold Drake noted a surplus truck was purchased Dec 11 at Lockbourne Air Force Base for a 1951 stake body truck at $75 to the district.
