School Heads Meet For Reorganization  

A group of school officials from Union, Aubbeenaubbee and North townships attended a meeting in Indianapolis last Thursday with the state school commission representatives.

Frank McLane, superintendent of county School, said the purpose of the meeting was to arrange a hearing with the commission and get its opinion of the Culver Community School corporation unit that is being organized under the 1947 law as amended by section 10 of the 1959 law.

Bendict, Union township trustee; Deane Walker of Plymouth representing W. O. Osborn, Culver; Vernie Bowen Aubbeenaubbee township trustee; Donald Taylor, Nnorth Bend Trustee; Cedric White, a member of the North Bend township advisory board and Judd Stinchcomb, Culver.

The commission told the group a meeting would be scheduled within the next couple of weeks to review the Culver School corporation unit.

The coporation is to include the Fulton and Starke county townships and the Richland township from Fulton county along with Union township in Marshall county.

On Dec. 12 last year the Marshall County committee divided Marshall county into five school districts in which they included the two additional school systems with the Culver unit.
