SACHAMENTO UP I The Assembly and Governor Reagan face stiff doubt about passing a new school finance bill this session. Chair Leroy Girvene warned adjournment nears he had little hope for rapid legislation to replace the current property tax based funding. The Supreme Court ruling demanding change looms over policymakers as they weigh delaying action until 1972 while exploring funding options with Reagan's staff and legislative leaders.
