Frecport School District must vote on whcHier/If will
speiul an additional |875,000 toward both tlie proposed
st'iiioi* high school and the swimming pool — without eBini-niiling
the pool proposition before bitllots are cast i i x a spe-i-

Spokesmen for civic groups had urgctl that the Board post­pone
its refereiickmi until it could costs more than $325,000
by (hopping the pool from tiie architect's plans, Douglass
Lawrence, dislrJcl counsel, got a negative answer last %vc'ek
when he asked slate officials whether such a step would be
legal. Plans for an election have progressed so much that
the baUoting must take place before any change in the
proposition can be m a d e .
