Price Edges Gerson In Foothills Trustee Race
Price, head of Standard Oil operations here, defeated incumbent Howard Gerson 185 to 154 in the Catalina Foothills School District election. The race centered on whether to enlarge the present River Road school or build a new site near Swan and Sunrise. Price called the vote a mandate and expressed thanks to supporters. Other results included Edgar Butterbaugh winning in Amphitheater by 158 votes in a three-way race, and incumbents C. J. Nichols and Walter Douglas Jr. securing new five year terms. Douglas noted plans for a bond issue in the near future. In smaller districts, Shirley Johnston won in Vail, and Sahuarita elected three new board members to expand its board from three to five.
