13, 1968 for protection of the board after a recent change in administration of the finance department. -Approved a proposal to change curriculum at Pensacola Technical High school to a special program for educationally disadvantaged students. By the reorganization the School Board is making way for possible conversion of the junior high school system to the state middle school system, Darden said. middle school, the involves term the used by educators, middle or transition grades and designed primarily to fit their peculiar needs instead of copying the senior high school system as the junior high system has been accused of doing. Board chairman Peter Gindl voted against the change.
Gindl said he wanted to wait until the board decides on a new desegregation plan for the county schools to comply with recent court orders. The board agreed to delay action on the EEA payroll deduction plan because Gindl said he thought there are too many unnecessary deductions already on teachers' paychecks. He said there are 17 or 18 deductions at present. The board asked Supt. J.
E. Hall to come up with a recommendation for a new payroll deduction policy. Mrs. Wesley had said at the last School Board meeting she would vote for the deduction of EEA dues if a majority of the teachers wanted it. Hall told the board Wednesday 1,241 teachers had returned forms saying they "approve of" the deductions and 287 actually said they wanted the EEA dues taken out of their pay this year.
The other 168 teachers opposed the deduction, Hall said. Mrs. Wesley accused Haushalter of "pressuring" principals to get their teachers to sign and return the forms. "I resent that," Haushalter replied angrily. The EEA director told Mrs.
Wesley that as far as he knew payroll deduction forms sent to teachers recently were the first of that kind. "You didn't demand that of these other companies receiving payroll deductions," Haushalter said. The board demanded Hall certify all agenda items concerning finances before approving them Wednesday because FWB Will Hire Personnel Head News-Journal Bureau FORT WALTON BEACH The Fort Walton Beach City Council has approved a measure to hire a personnel director, establish a merit system for raises and promotions, and named the municipal planning board as a grievance committee to hear personnel Recommendations from the planning board set forth the merit system plan rather than civil service for the city's employes.

The council also authorized the planning board to work with city manager Winston Walker to hire the personnel director and to set his salary.

"Are we amending the budget after we make the purchases?" Leeper asked. He quoted the Florida school law which prohibits such procedure and said the superintendent who signs the warrant is personally liable for infringement of the law.
The board asked purchasing agent William Faris to make sure that if a purchase requires a budget amendment, the amendment is first approved in Tallahassee. Leeper also asked Faris to insist that teachers and other personnel requisitioning equipment name at least three brand names of items they would accept. Leeper warned against writing specifications on a piece of equipment that would compel school officials to accept higher bids to meet the specifications. Leeper said in many cases bids would be lower if specifications were not written around certain pieces of equipment. The board named R.
C. Lipscomb deputy superintendent because his former position as associate superintendent is not exemted by title from Escambia Civil Service classification. Mrs. Wesley objected, saying the move is unfair to the o'her associate superintendents such as A. Z.
Shows, whose position now could go under civil service authority. Obituaries BARGE'S FUNERAL HOME George W. Tate George W. Tate of 1003 N. Alcaniz died Sunday in a local hospital after a long illness.

A committee composed of Lewis and board members Dave Bowers and Gene Clarkson inspected Burroughs equipment in Detroit and IBM equipment in Chicago before recommending that the low bid be accepted. The board's decision to lease the equipment was made with two members absent Peter Gindl and W. A. Davis. Gindl is chairman of the Escambia County School Board and had a meeting earlier in the day.
Davis is chairman of the Escambia County Commission. Bowen, Clarkson and City Councilman John Schill are the other members. "I had hoped everyone would be here today," Schill told the board after (he decision on leasing the equipment was made. "But they (Gindl and Davis) will have to live with our judgment." In other business the board agreed that any system or program developed by its personnel would be a available to other governmental agencies a cost. Clarkson said Duval Countv which recently consolidated its city and county governments and is now consolidating three computer centers has already expressed an interest in securing some of the programs developed here.
"Duval is one of many," said Clarkson. "There is some feeling that these programs are being developed with sta'e funds and that isn't true." The Escambia Data Processing Board is a consolidation of data processing operation of the city, county and School Board. The board also reviewed a report to the Escambia legislative delegation and asked that a meeting with the lawmakers be arranged. The board was created by the Florida Legislature and went into full operation last March. This will be its first report back to the Legislature.

THIS POSITION OFFERS UNLIMITED OPPORTUNITY TO QUALIFIED PERSON Call Mr. Howard Burwell (owner) for personal in- Orlando Trial Boy, 13, Faces Death in Chair ORLANDO (AP) A but. ton nosed 13 year -old with bangs went on trial for his life here Wednesday charged with the first degree murder of a playmate after what the prosecutor called an argument over a cigarette.
Robert Everett Curtis listened wide-eyed as the prosecutor told the jury that Curtis threatened to kill his friend, 15-year-old James Thompson, then got a .22 caliber rifle and shot Thompson fatally in an eye last Sept. 9. The death had once been listed as accidental and, until Wednesday, police had not revealed their theory. The schoolboy on trial, looking uncomfortable in his suit. white shirt and tie, was so small courtroom spectators could not see his head above the back of his chair.
If convicted without a jury recommendation of mercy, Curtis would face an automatic sentence of death in the electric chair. Prison officials said Wednesday if convicted he would be the youngest person ever committed to a Florida penitentiary. The Circuit Court jury of seven women and five men was selected Tuesday. In his opening argument, State Atty. Robert Eagan told the jury Curtis and the victim had been playing in the Curtis family apartment with two other youngsters, one of them Curtis' brother, Allan.
Eagan said Curtis and Thompson got into an argument over a cigarette. "I'll kill you," Curtis said to Thompson, according to Eagan. Then Curtis left the room. When Thompson and the other playmate began to leave they met young Curtis in the hallway. He held a .22 rifle, Eagan said.
"Don't point that gun at us," Thompson said, according to Eagan. Curtis pulled the trigger, sending a bullet crashing into Thompson's eye, Eagan said. Thompson crumbled into a heap, his pack of cigarettes hidden under the body. Prison records showed the youngest person ever sentenced to Florida prison for an adult offense was committed just last month for 20 years on a second degree murder charge. He is Floyd Gilley, now 14, sentenced for the shotgun murder committed when he was 13.
