Butt, TWtdav, Jury 8, 1980 2 The Montana Standard Libra ryboard "upset wifh federQ'Jion-agairH minutes of the meeting. She questioned 'i) 5- ---i' By JERI PULL CM Staadard Staff Writer The-Butte Silver Bow Library Board's frustration with the Broad Valley's Federation increased Monday night when Marilyn O'Hair reported she had not received an answer to the board's protest of federation actions. Also at the regular meeting in the library. Chairman Henry McClernan excluded the public so the board could discuss how two employees should be classified in the upcoming union contract. The board had voted in June to protest the federation coordinator's decision to ask member libraries including all in Southwest Montana to submit ballots about how to spend $26,000 in coal severance tar money.

Usually the federation uses some money for special projects, then divides the rest among the libaries according to population. The Butte board wanted it to use all the money for other projects. BUT, WHEN THE federation met to decide, there was no quorum present and Coordinator Peg Hileman decided to mail ballots. The local board in June protested the mail ballots since they do not allow representatives to speak for or against the various proposals. O'Hair said the ballots were mailed out the accuracy of the minutes and said the ballots would be "completely and utterly slanted by a set of unapproved minutes." The federation apparently never approves the minutes because it meets only twice a year.

The local board then decided to draw up -a position paper outlining the problems in the federation and possible solutions. CONCERNING THE closed portion of the meeting Monday night, McClernan said two library employees do not fit into any of the proposed classifications in the contract. Board members said that since the classifications would affect salaries, the discussion would affect the library's bargaining position and thus could be closed. O'Hair also gave the final report on the library inventory, which was conducted under her direction beginning in February. Staff members counted 68,045 books.

She said some problems unearthed included the need for extensive weeding of seldom-used volumes such as in the adult non-fiction section where she said 94 percent of the books are not checked out. She also said the card catalog was inaccurate, many books need better labels and certain sections of books, are scattered around rather than being theDewey Decimal System. along with an unapproved Stuart welcomes i 5 i BLUE SKIES AND tures in the mid-80s Monday in the Smelter City were perfect for Kathy Wilson, 9, and her cat, Jiggs. They decided to do a little swinging in the breeze just east of the Anaconda police station.

The principal transfers, as they stand now, follow: Don Harrington, formerly Emerson School principal, will move to the Hillcrest School, where Neal Sullivan has retired.

Joan Strouprrormerl of the now closed Madison School, will move to the Blaine. The Monroe School principalship, previously held by John McMeekin, who retired, is being advertised.

By CARMEN WINSLOW -Standard Staff Writer Elementary school Principal Howard Stuart told Butte school trustees Monday night he was "looking forward" to transferring to the Emerson School, which he called a "traditional type school" because of its self-contained classrooms. Stuart was referring to his request to transfer from the Margaret Leary School, which operates under an "open classroom" concept (rooms are separated by bookcases," for example, jrather4han walls Stuart said there are pros and cons for both open and self-contained classrooms. He said he was ready to return to the latter. Trustees last week voted 4-3 to approve Stuart's request, but called him to the Monday meeting because he was absent last week.

Tourism booklet due soon Montana's -Gold West Territory expects to inform 250,000 potential visitors about the seven-county area's tourist attractions by midsummer. Gold West is a non-profit tourism coordinating group for Butte-Silver Bow, Anaconda-Deer Lodge, Granite, Powell, Beaverhead, Jefferson and Madison counties. The group hopes to distribute a full-color tabloid this month, said President Darryl Lee. The booklet will feature tourist attractions from Madison County north of Yellowstone Park to Granite and Powell counties on the west and north, he said. Lee said the publication will be distributed in population centers within a day's drive of Southwest Montana, or within a 400-mile radius, including Salt Lake City, Spokane, Bismarck and Calgary.

Gold West organizers are hoping that vacationers who are undecided about where to go will be attracted to Southwest Montana. Also, Lee said, hunters and anglers could boost this year's tourist trade by seeking out Gold West fields in the fall. Lee said Gold West hopes to cooperate and exchange information with other travel agencies in the state and region. Butte fire calls Monday 3:15 p.m. Gasoline spill, Broadway and Dakota.

Highway bids were in error HELENA (AP) Peter Kiewit and Sons has not been awarded a more than $12.4 million contract, as earlier reported by the Montana Department of Highways, a spokeswoman said.

in iaci, luewu is omy me apparent low bidder for the 4-mile Interstate 15 con- In fact, Kiewit is only the struction project southwest of Boulder, said spokeswoman Rae Quids. The Associated Press also erroneously reported that the project had been awarded to Goodfellow Brothers of Weiiatchee, Wash. In fact, the Department of Highways had only reported that Goodfellow was the apparent low bidder for the project. Later, the Department of Highways determined that Peter Kiewit was the apparent low bidder as a result of an error in addition by Goodfellow. However, because the Kiewit bid is far over the department's estimate for the project, the commission has still not awarded the contract.

The project includes construction of three bridges over the Boulder River and one over Burlington Northern railroad tracks, construction of the interstate and a ramp' revision at the Boulder interchange. brown car" left without paying for $4 worth of gas- oline Friday.
