Board President Robert Weiss noted that the board had made no decision on the proposed plan and refused to allow a poll of the board members. A two year phase-out of Parkway Oaks would save $150,000 the first year and $220,000 the second year, plus the $245,000 the board says it would cost to keep the building in repair, including a new roof. The board claims that Park- way Oaks was singled out as the first of three schools proposed for closing by 1960 is because that school would cost three times as much to keep in repair than any other district school. Mrs. Richman claims that \taxpayers are willing to pay for quality education.\ While the board cites the number of budget defeats suffered in the past and says it is dedicated to trying to achieve a zero tax increase this year u possible. guests were then entertained with a Fencing Exhibition by Warren Hammerschlag and Larry Levy, both members of the Jericho High School Fencing Team, along with their Coach John Calcagni.

Jackie Humpf, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Jack Humpf of 4 Regina Road, Farmingdale, dragged the injured man from his burning car only seconds before the gas tank exploded. The heroic deed came to the attention of the Post this past week as Jackie told her story in an ^article in her high school newspaper, the \Trinity Triangle.\ According to Jackie's story, While driving home last Dec. 28 she saw a jeep lose control on a curve and turn over trapping the driver inside. She stopped and Heart Ball l Continued from page l ]' their families were down with the flu.\ Because the dinner dance has always been such an enjoyable evening, Mrs. Pfoh said she has received numerous requests to postpone the event so that people would be able to attend again this year. \Fortunately the Holiday Manor in Bethpage was most cooperative,\ Mrs. Pfoh said, \and they have managed to provide us with another date.\ She noted that an additional benefit to the new date is that instead of being on a Friday night, the Heart Fund Ball will now be on a Saturday night. To obtain tickets for the dinner- dance, call Mrs. Pfoh at CH 9- 3244. „ Those who founded the United States would prob- ably be amazed at it to- day. ran to the jeep where she saw that the driver was trapped, but still conscious. \I didn't want to move him for fear that I would aggravate his injuries, so I told him, I'd be right back, I'm going to get some help.\ As Jackie was returning to her car the jeep's engine caught fire and she ran back. \His legs were tangled,\ Jackie said, \so I entered the passenger side of the vehicle and untangled them. I then pulled him to a safe area and covered him with a blanket I had in my car. Immediately af- terwards the gas tank exploded.\ Jackie went to the side of Route 109 and started waving for help, but no one stopped. She then remembered passing a policeman further back on the highway and went looking for him. She found the police car and led the officer back to the scene of the accident to find several more police cars already at the cite and an ambulance on its way. The victim\ Domion Nikadapis, suffered a broken leg, slight concussion and four broken ribs, but he would be alright, his wife reported in a phone call to Jackie the next day. Nikadapis also wrote Jackie a letter from the hospital saying \You risked your life to save mine, for this I thank you.\ Four days later, Mrs. Nikadapis called to tell Jackie that she just found out that she was pregnant with their first child. \She told me,\ Jackie said, \If it hadn't been for you, my baby would have no father.\ \I'm elated that I did something right,\ Jackie said, \something that really counted and it's an irreplaceable feeling.\.
