Jones County School Board Plans Elect Four Areas
The Jones county board of education outlined plans at a recent Anamosa meeting to elect six members in four geographic areas plus one at large in the March 8 1948 regular election. A new division maps areas North East North West South West and assigns districts and four year high schools to areas. Members will take office April 1948 with jurisdiction over all non four year high schools. The reorganized structure follows a law enacted last session and a Des Moines conference by district leaders including Joseph A Beave Mrs Lee Crain and Mrs Arthur Wilcox.
