1. Annual Freedom of Choice
Os Schools
The Wheeler County Board of
Education has adopted a policy of
complete freedom of choice to be
offered annually in all grades of
all schools without regard to race,
color, or national origin, accord
ing to the following schedule: .
1. 1965-1966: grades 1-8
2. 1966-1967: all grades 1-12
B. The choice is granted to par
ents, guardians and persons acting
as parents (hereafter called “par
ents”) and their children. Teach
ers, pricipals and other school per
sonnel are not permitted to advise,
recommend or otherwise influ
ence choices. They re not permit
ted to favor or penalize children
because of choices.
11. Pupils Entering First Grade
Registration for the first grade
will take place Monday through
Friday in all subsequent school
years during the last two weeks of
school from 8:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m.
When registering, the parent will
complete :. Choice of School Form
for the child. The child may be
registered a! any elementary
school in this system, and the
Choice made may be for that
school or for any other elementary
school in the system. The provis
ions of Section VI of this plan I
with respect to overcrowding shall
apply in the assignment to schools
of children entering first grade.
111. Pupils Entering Other Grades
A. Each parent will be sent a
letter annually explaining the pro
vision of the plan, together with
a Choice of School Form at least
15 days before the date when the
form must be returned. Choice
forms and copies of the letter to
parents will also be re'dily avail
able to parents or students and
the general public in the school
offices during regular business
hours. Section VI applies.
B. The Choice of School Form
must be either mailed or brought
to any school or to the superin
tendent’s office by June 1 each
year. Anyone not registering his
choice by that date must file his
Choice of School Form at the time
of registration when school opens.
No child can be officially enroll
ed in Wheeler County Public'
Schools until a choice form has
been completed and returned ac
cording to this plan.
IV. Pupils Newly Entering School
System or Changing Residence
Within It
A. Parents of children moving
into the area served by this school
system, or changing their resi
dence within it, after the registra
tion period is completed but be
fore the opening of the school
year, will have the same oppor
tunity to choose their children’s
school just before school opens
during the week of August 27 to
September 3, by completing a
Choice of School Form. The child
may be registered at any school in
the system containing the grade he .
will enter, and the choice made ,
may be for that school or for any ■
other such school in the system.
However, first preference in ,
choice of schools will be given to ।
those whose Choice of School ,
Form is returned bj’ the final date ]
for making choice in the regular (
registration period. Otherwise, ,
Section VI applies.
B. Children moving into the a- ,
rea served by this school system,
or changing their residence with- -
in it, after the late registration ।
period referred to above but be- I.
fore the next regular registration ।
period, shall be assigned to the ,
schools nearest their homes where ■
space is available without regard
to race, color, or national origin. (
V. Resident And Non Resident ]
Attendance (
This system will rot accept non- ;
resident students, nor will it make I
arrangements for resident Stu- j
dents to attend schools in other
school systems where this would
tend to preserve segregation or
minimize desegregation. Any ar
rangement made for non-resident
students to attend schools in this
system, or for resident students ;
to attend schools in another sys- ■
tern, will assure that such students ]
will be assigned without regard to ■
race, color, or national origin, and (
such rrangement will be explain- ■
ed fully in an attachment made a
part of this plan. ;
VI. Overcrowding
A. In grades 1-8. no choice will ;
be denied for any reason other ■
than overcrowding. Where a ;
school would become overcrowd
ed if all choices for that school i
were granted, pupils choosing that
school will be assigned so that
they may attend the school of their
choice nearest to their homes. No
preference will be given for prior
attendance at the school.
B. In grades 1-8, anyone whose
choice is denied because of over
crowding will be required to make
another choice from among all
other schools in the system where
space is available in his grade, in
such manner as to guarantee an
effective choice of a desegregat
। ed school.
C. In the school year 1966-1967,
:nd in subsequent years for grades
9-12, in the event of overcrowd
ing at either school in the District,
facilities at the overcrowded
school shall be enlarged immed
iately to accommodate the addi
tional children for the then cur
rent school year.
VII. Transportation
The policy for transportation
will be :s follows: Transportation
will be provided on an equal bas- :
is without segregation or other!
discrimination because of race, I
color, or national origin. The right
to attend any school in the system
will not be restricted by trans
portation policies or practices. To
the maximum extent feasible,
busses will be routed so as to
serve each pupil choosing any
school in the system. In any event,
every student eligible for buss- i
ing shall be transported to the i
school of his choice if he chooses ,
either the formerly white or the
formerly Negro school nearest his
residence.
VIII. Services, Facilities, j ■
Activities, And Programs
There shall be no discrimina-: ■
tion based on race, color, or na-1 j
tiond origin with respect to any]]
services, facilities, activities, and |,
programs sponsored by or affiliat-j
ed with the schools of this school
system. ; ।
IX. Staff Desegregation [
A. Staff desegregation shall be । ;
as follows: Assignment of person- j
nel at all levels shall be made ;
without regard to race, color, or j
national origin. Steps shall be ;
taken beginning with school year ।
1965-66 toward elimination of se- (
gregation of leaching and staff t
personnel based on race, color, or j t
national origin, including joint !
faculty meetings, in-service pro- i c
grams, workshops, other proses-1 ]
sional meetings and other steps c
as set forth in Attachment C.
B. The race, color, or national j
origin of. pupils will not be a
factor in the initial assignment to
a particular school or within a
school of teachers, administrators ■
or other employees who serve pu
| pils, beginning in 1966-67.
1 C. This school system will not I *
demote or refuse to re-employ |
principals, teachers and other staff! ■
members who serve pupils, on the ; 1
basis of race, color, or national j>
origin; this includes any demo-' ‘
tion or failure to re-employ staff 1
members by reason of race, col- 1
or, or national origin, because of
actual or expected loss of enroll-1 3
ment in a school. i *
X. Sections I, 11. 111, IV. V, VI. <
VII, and VIII of this plan will be j
■*— « ।
published annually on three sep-|
arate occasions in the three con- j
secutive weeks immediately pre-i
ceding the annual registration per- i
iod. The publication shall tike!
place in the Wheeler County Eagle I

ALTHOUGH it goes on and
on, one never ceases to be
amazed at disclosures of waste
ful and foolhardy spending of
American money abroad. One
wonders also how long it w ill be
permitted to continue before the
American peo
ple speak out
in repudiation.
It recently

that the Unit

Indonesia
$350,000 to as

struction and operation—as in
credible as it may seem—of an
atomic research reactor.
This is the nation, it will be
remembered, that already has
received about $1 billion in for
eign aid from the United States,
and which has assaulted our em
bassy, cursed the United States,
expelled the Peace Corps, with
drawn from the United Nations,
aligned itself with Communist
China, and bragged about hav
ing an atomic bomb soon.
In his most recent tirade
against America, Indonesia’s dic
tator Sukarno told the United
States to get out of Southeast
Asia, called on other nations to
oppose U. S. “aggression” in
Viet Nam and declared that an
“anti-imperialism” axis is being
formed by Indonesia, Red China,
North Korea, North Viet Nam,
and Cambodia. At the same time,
Sukarno reiterated his threat to
crush our ally, Malaysia.
As a warm-up for Sukarno’s
annual attack on the U. S., his
police staged an American book

China news agency reported was

TO ALL PERSONS WHOM IT

ACCORDING TO the Depart
ment of State, the $350,000 grant
to Indonesia for the atomic re
actor, which is now in operation, ,
came from an agreement entered
into in 1960 during the Eisen
hower administration. The re
actor began operation last Oc
tober with uranium fuel leased
from the United States.
Under the terms of the bilat
eral agreement, which provides
that the reactor be used for
“peaceful purposes” only, the
Atomic Energy Commission has
inspection rights, the first of
which was held last January.
The agreement will expire in
September, and the question
arises on whether or not it should
be renewed.
Judging from Sukarno's past
actions and blatant hostility to
ward the United States, the
question should not be too dif
ficult to resolve. At any time
Indonesia could deny inspections
and we would have little, if any,
control over how the reactor was
used. Whatever we have done in
Indonesia in the past has been
at Sukarno’s pleasure, and I see
no reason to regard the present
situation any differently.
Also, although the reactor is
said to be small and one incap
able at the present time of con
structing an atomic bomb, each i
day that it operates—with our
assistance—contributes to the
nuclear skills and knowledge of
Indonesia, which by no stretch
of the imagination can be re
garded as our friend.

How Much To Store?
How much winter feed will
Georgia livestock producers need
;to store? Animal scientists with
the University’s Cooperative Ex
tension Service say a good rule
of thumb is to have one and one
half tons of hay or four to five
tons of silage available for each
cow.
The largest apple-producing
county in Georgia? It is Gilmer,
where 30.000 new trees have been
planted since 1958.
Money may not buy happiness,
but it surely helps one look for
it in more interesting places.

Work With Nature
I In landscaping the home
I grounds, it is better to work with
| nature than try to change it radi
| cally, says Thomas G. Williams,
! Jr„ head of the Extension Service
I landscape department. He points
out that needless bulldozing and
I tree removals have seriously’ dam-
I aged the existing character of
i many residential properties.
SOIL CONDITIONING
To get a soil into good physical
i condition, spade it deeply and
! work in generous amounts of well
| rotted manure, compost, or peat
: moss, suggests Horticulturist Ger
' aid E. Smith of the Extension
; Service. The organic matter helps
I maintain good tilth, aids in hold
i ing moisture, and acts as a store
' house f°r plant nutrients.
