Collie was able to get the license number of the men’s car. 1 he two men entered the store about 2 p.m., said Collie. One at tempted to distract Collie while the other moved to the rear of the store where the suits are racked. “I’d say they were in their late twenties or early thirties,” he said. He said they Were “very well dressed.” After several minutes, Collie said he became suspicious, and walked to the rear of the store and “notic ed they had several suits in the back of a car.” \I told them to get the suits out,” he said. One of the men apologized and agreed to remove the suits, but when Coilie asked a customer in the store to call police, a scuffle en sued. Collie said he was struck once with a fist on the back of the head. He said he struck three blows him self. The struggle started in the store and continued outside as the thiev es attempted to flee.

The caller is using the lives of our children at his ploy. Even though we are reasonably certain t h a t each threat is a hoax, we can not in all conscience ignor it. In an effort to catch the caller, we are working closely with all investigatory agencies and are receiving excellent co operation. If any person in the community has any leads as to the identity of the caller, it would be appreciated if the infor mation would be relayed to the Sheriff's Department located in Lyons. in the future, a bomb threat is received, every reason able effort, short of maximum security will be made to insure the safety of the students and of the buildings. Under these conditions, a decision may be made to have school. Even after taking every reasonable precaution, absolute security, never theless, can not be guaranteed. You may, therefore, wish to have your child excused from attending school during the per iod of the threat. If you do, please visit an y schbol in person to sign a release form for your child. The form will be kept on file for this school year. §ince irrational elements can not be permitted to deny our children in education, the Board of Education adopted a policy to the effect that all instructional time lost dueTo bomb threats wifi be made up during this school year. Under this policy, vacation periods, as originally announced in ihe school calendar, are subject to revision. If you have any questions, please feel free to call me at 597-4892 or 986-7986.

Pal-Mac School Board Seeks Salary Solution The executive committee of the faculty association appeared by in vitation at the Sept. 14 meeting of me Pal-Mac School Board to dis cuss resolving the salary impasse between the faculty association and t. e school district. The board heard several recom mendations from the faculty as sociation anti took them under ad visement for future study. Appointments for classified staff were custodians, monitors, and bus drivers. A recent interpretation of the President's Wage-Price Freeze by the school attorney reversed an original position relative to pay ing the classified staff. Their salary schedules will be the same as the 1970-1971 school year. Teachers, however, will be eligi ble to receive additional renumer ation for graduate courses taken last year. This is construed to be a promotion not a raise. The board received resignations from Mrs. Henry Bennett, typist in the Guidance Department and from Mrs. Lynda Rogers, high school math teacher. The business administrator au- t! orized disposal of a’ 1960 Ford sedan and a 1961 Ford station wag on after advertising in the Palmyra Courier-Journal and accepting the highest bid.
