County board weighs budget cuts and new vocational school
Stankard argues a smaller nine member board could reach agreement faster while discussing budget and tax collection. Milton A.

Brockway notes Mohawk Area would owe about 52000 dollars if a million dollar facility is built to train 1000 students, with state aid of about 41000 dollars annually likely covering the assessment if approved for 1964.
