School Boundary Fight Targets McBee Plant Annexation

Federal Hocking Local District officials warn that annexing the $3 million McBee plant could shift taxes and wealth from Athens city schools. Athens anticipates a 1967 tax yield of $53.87 million with $42,548 at stake from McBee, while Federal Hocking already carries $11.5 million district valuation and $1 million in bonds for a new high school. The dispute may take up to a year for a state school board ruling as both districts contest boundary lines along Route 50 and beyond.

Detroit Asks For Troops Amid City Unrest

Detroit officials request federal and local troops to quell rioting as Wayne State and the University of Detroit suspend classes. Mayor Cavanagh and Governor Romney say at least 8 000 guardsmen are expected to join about 1 000 police in the city by mid afternoon, with regular army units alerted after debates over federal involvement amid nationwide racial unrest. The riot area is predominantly Negro, with the city’s 17 million population about 30 percent Black.
