In the summer of 1976 a Needs Assessment Program was completed within the Council School District. The study, a year-long pro- ject, sought to identify the most critical areas in learn- ing that needed to be im- proved. Changes have been made 'and are being made Jeff Muller and Kip Pearson, both of Council, were the tlrst place winners in the 1977 International Porcupine race which was held at Council July 2.

Jeanne Hug, Council's gallant young lady in a wheel chair has a problem. The problem is there be- cause Jeanne wants to be self sufficient despite the handicap that keeps her in that chair. She doesn't want to be a burden on any- one, wants to take care of herself and does. Jeanne does her own cooking and therein lies the problem. Stoves of the con- ventional type have ovens that just are not suited to use by people in wheel chairs. Jeanne has tried but in trying has incurred numerous burns on her arms and legs. l retty hard to get things Out of that conventional oven when you are a little, sbakey and are trying to take the food while sitting in the chair. short what Jeanne needs is a Micro-wave oven. And it really makes sense, A Micro-wave oven can be placed at a level where she can handle it. Also with this type of oven only the food gets hot, not the door. Council bought Jeanne a motorized chair a year or so ago and it has been a real boon to her, she even goes to the store for her gro- A bill aimed at alleviating OSHA problems faced by small business has attract- ed more than 100 congress- men as cosponsors in the House of Representatives. The bill, H. R. 5364, originally introduced by Rep. Joe Skubitz (R.Kan), would exempt from OSHA r u l e s and r gulations all businesses and farms which have 10 or fewer employes. It would also provide that an individual would have to work for a period of 30 consecutive days before he or she could be counted as an employe under the OSHA Act. Additionally, the bill would provide that so long as an employer is not guilty of a willful or serious viola. tion, and has no less than 11 nor more than 25 employes, the employer would receive only a warn. ing for any first-instance • ,violation. The bill would also pro- vide that no civil penalty could be assessed after an investigation or inspection so long as no more than 10 first-instance, nonserious violations are found. The bill has been referred to the House Education and Labor Committee. cedes.

We are informed that the fund is still a substantial amount short of what is needed. A new translator for this station would insure to the residents of Council and adjacent area, TV reception within the school system in an effort to achieve the goals outlined in the study. A brief review of the most critical needs reveals some of the progress that has been made. One of the most criti- cal needs identified in the study called for strength- ening the areas of reading, spelling, grammer, speech and phonics. Often called "Back to Basics'., this need has been met by providing remedial work in language and math skills for 7th & 8th grade students; a special-education teacher and a remedial-reading teacher are working with students at the elementary level, and a special-educa- tion teacher has been hired for the Junior-High and High-school for the coming school year and a speech therapist h&s been added to the staff. In a beginning effort to provide a broader Vo-ed program, shop has been ex- tended down to 'the 8th grade and the total pro- gram is being evaluated in accordance with the state plan for Vocational educa- tion, and an effort is bein made to further enrich the program. We now have vo- C L "Butch".Otl dD • _ I i Says II ] I C.L. (Butch) Otter made his Independence day speech at exactly 1:15 P.M. as planned he did it well. He led it off by asking the crowd of people, assem- bled in the park, to make the Pledge of Allegiance with him. He then went on to speak of the marvelous success of our 'American system under the free enter- prise idea. He emphasized that freedom of the indi- vidual was the most impor- tant and precious posses- sion we have. Mr. Otter drew a distinc- tion between the forms of government as represented by a republic, which we have, and a democracy, which we are not. He warned of the disastrous effect of a too strong cen- tralized government. He also cautioned that any system will fail if too many people live off of the labors of a few. Mr. Otter sta ed that at least 65% of Idaho land is either owned or controlled from Washington and was concerned about the re- strictive laws and regula- tions pertaining to that land as a result of the thinking of the Washington bureaucrats. He noted that the closing of the McCall mill and the possible clos- ing of others are the result of too many restrictions. He asked people to re- flect on the effects of in- flation and ever more curtailment of our liberty. In short the speech was well delivered, well ac- cepted and as American as the Fourth of July. In contrast to some pre- vious years the talk could be heard clearly, thanks to the fine sound system that is owned by Dick Parker.

This area. along with the expressed need to provide a positive self imaga - eoncerns all classes and activities. Through group counseling more time is bein spent in discussing policy, ethics and the like. We are trying to provide opportunities for more students to participate in a variety of activities so that we can work away from the traditional situa- tion in which a handful of students participate in all activities. Council schools have been chosen to participate in a pilot program drqwn up by the State Board of Education which is designed to integrate health con- cepts in grades 1 through 12. This program stresses ways of building self-respect for others and ways of maintaining physical health and is woven into all class areas. Next week we will report further on School Needs. • • .MAGISTRATE COURT WEEKS, James L., Box 25, Grangeville, Idaho, Driving while suspended, $50.00 plus court costs. MYERS, Tinis E., 3224 S.
