SLATER KEITH LESLIE • Coquille schools and community are fortunate in having a school board whose members are willing to give much time and thought to school affairs. They work harmoniously in maintaining a school system of high standards and best advantages and at the same time guard the interests of taxpayers against excessive and unnecessary expenditures. High school pupils particularly appreciate the assistance of the board this year in the purchase of a sound motion picture projector. Much educational value has been derived from films shown with this new and modern equipment. Dr. J. R. Bunch, chairman of the board, is MAY, 1938 finishing his sixth year in office. Leona J. Bryant has served as a board member for five years and R. T. Slater is serving his first term as a member of the board. Coquille having grown in size to that of a first class district will now necessitate the election of a five-member board. Next spring two additional members will be elected to serve with the present board of three members. Keith Leslie, clerk of the board, is serving his seventh year in that position, having been elected each year by voters of the district. Henceforth the clerk will be appointed by the board as provided by law in districts of the first class. 5
