WARM WEATHER IS
AVERTING WORST
COAL CRISIS HERE
Fuel Shortage is Most Serious
of Winter, Say Dealers,
Wednesday.
Two Cars of Mine Run, Undeter
mined Quality is Town’s
Only Supply.
Current spell of springlike weath
er is all that has prevented the most
serious fuel crisis of the winter,
local coal dealers said Wednesday
morning.
The coal situation, it was declared
has deteriorated from bad to worse.
A canvass of retail dealers disclosed
that two cars of mine run coal of
undetermined quality constitute the
only supply Bluffton has on hand.
From this supply coal to house
holders whose bins are empty is be
ing rationed.
Promised Coal Not Here
Scheduled shipments of coal of
regular quality for domestic con
sumption have ailed to arrive and
dealers said they could not tell when
these shipments will come.
A continuance of the present
•warm weather with temperatures
ranging between 40 and 50 degrees
together with careful husbanding of
such coal supplies as householders
have on hand appears to be the best
solution to the problem.
The existing shortage of coal has
been confined largely to domestic
consumers. Industrial concerns, in
cluding Bluffton’s municipal electric
light and power plant and education
al institutions have sufficient stocks
•on hand for their immediate needs,
it is indicated.

Auto Runs Into
Floor less Bridge
An automobile which Hancock
county deputy sheriffs said was driv
en by Herbert Garmatter 16, of
near Bluffton, crashed thru a barri
cade and onto a floorless bridge on
county road 38 in Union township
last Thursday night. The bridge
was out for a new floor when the
accident occurred.
The damage was estimated at $50
by County Engineer John M. Stough.
Sheriff’s deputies who investigated
the accident said that Garmatter
came from Rawson on county road
57 and instead of going to the inter
section of this road and highway 38,
took a short cut south of the rail
road tracks to road 38, thereby
missing the “bridge out” sign at
the intersection.
Garmatter and three passengers,
Clarence Smith 15, Norman Smith
13 and Leonard Amstutz all of Mt.
Cory were uninjured. Headlights
and front fenders of the car ■were
damaged.
County Engineer Stough said the
floor beam and a few stringers were
bent as well as the sway bracing.
Principal damage will be the labor
cost in replacing parts of the bridge.
Egg And Butterfat
Market Stabilized
Market for eggs and butterfat ap
peared to be stabilized at least tem

THE BLUFFTON NEWS
A NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF BLUFFTON AND VICINITY
BLUFFTON, OHIO THURSDAY, FEB. 7, 1946
TEACHERS PROTEST
SALARY CONTRACT
ABOVE SCHEDULE
Board’s Action in Hiring Manual
Training Instructor Draws
Teachers’ Fire
Higher Salary Must be Paid if
Closed Department is to Re
open, Board Says
Objection of Bluffton teachers to
action of the board of education in
hiring a manual training instructor
at a figure in excess of the high
school salary schedule came to a
head at a joint meeting of represent
tatives of the Bluffton Teachers as
sociation and the •chool board, last
Wednesday night.
Spokesmen for teachers in attend
ance at the session said they were
seeking “an equal distribution of
money available for the public school
faculty on the basis of the present
salary schedule.”
Re-opening of Bluffton’s manual
training department after it had
been closed nearly two years was as
sured last December, when the board
of education employed A. Dwight
Spayth for the last half of the
school year on the basis of an an
nual salary of $2,2Q0, with provision
for a salary of $2,300 beginning next
fall.
Teachers attending the meeting
said their objection was not a reflec
tion on Spayth’s qualifications, but
they were protesting that his salary
is several hundred dollars greater
than the maximum permitted under
the school’s salary schedule.
Average Salary $1,997
Under the schedule, adopted last
June, annual salaries for full-time
high school instructors teaching nine
months of the year range from $1,
668 to $2,052, with an average of
$1,997.
Discussion still was at a deadlock
when the meeting ended, with the
teachers maintaining their objections,
while the school board countered
with a statement that the only hope
to operate the department, which
has an enrollment of 83 pupils is to
pay a salary in excess of that
provided by the school’s schedule.
Board members pointed out that
the salary schedule when adopted
last June contained a clause in which
the school board reserves the right
to pay above or below the schedule,
if in their opinion the welfare of the
school demands it.
Two other members of the high
school faculty also are being paid
in excess of the salary schedule, the
school board said. The instructor in
home economics, employed on 10
months basis, receives a salary
above the schedule, and the coaching
position is being filled on a half
time basis in excess of the salary
schedule. In neither case, however,
is the salary as large as that provid
ed for the manual training depart
ment, and teachers made no issue of
the matter.
What Spayth’s salary would be if
hired under the schedule also was a
matter of dispute at last Wednes
day’s meeting. This discussion
centered around the technicality as
to whether time he spent in the
United States Navy during the war
should be credited to his teaching
experience.
Dispute Over Credit
Board members held that he was
entitled to credit for the time spent
in service, but teachers said that in
asmuch as he was employed in priv
ate industry when he enlisted, the
naval service could not proper!., be
credited to teaching experience.
Spayth had been an instructor at
West Liberty from 1938 to i 42,
then worked in private industry as
a tool designer until he enlisted in
the Navy in February, 1943.
After an evening of discussion,
however, the matter still resolved
itself to the conclusion that if Bluff
ton hopes to again operate the man
ual training department closed since
June, 1944, an instructor for it must
be hired above schedule, according
to spokesmen for the board of
education.
In the intervening period of almost
two years, it has been impossible to
employ a manual training teacher at
a figure that the local salary sched
ule would permit, and the only
chance to resume operations w*as in
action such as taken by the board
in hiring Spayth last December.
New Board Approves
Spayth was hired by the outgoing
board of education which relinquish
ed office on December 31. Of this
group, however, two members, Waldo
Hofstetter and Levi Althaus held
over and are serving on the present
(Continued on page 8)
For one day at least, the
Groundhog’s prediction of six more
weeks of winter weather was vindi
cated last Sunday and within 14
hours after he had seen his shadow
on the preceding day, the tempera
ture early Sunday morning sank to
a mark of two degrees abov* zero.
Then, just as it appeared that the
Groundhog deserved his traditional
role as a weather prophet, it turned
warmer and remained that way
thruout Monday, Tuesday and Wed
nesday.
In contrast to the reading of two
above on Sunday morning, the mer
cury reached a high mark of 50 on
Tuesday night, and so far there are
no indications of an early return to
colder weather.
Sleet on Monday morning changed
to rain later in the day, as temper
atures kept climbing, and there was
some rainfall on Tuesday.
H. S. Reserves Top
Columbus Grove, 49-25
Scoring 33 points in an inspired
last-half performance, Bluffton High
reserves romped to an easy 49 to 25
win over Columbus Grove seconds
Tuesday night on the Bluffton floor.
The Pirate understudies led at
the first quarter, 6 to 5, and at half
time, 16 to 12. They then pro
ceeded to run wild in the third
period and were out in front when
the whistle sounded, 34 to 19.
Fifteen more points w’ere added to
the team’s total in the fourth
stanza.
Moore, after going scoreless in
the opening quarter, found the mark
from that point and dropped 11
fielders thru the nets for a 22 point
total. Lewis w*as next high for the
Pirates with 12, Wilch got seven,
and Pogue six.
Junior High Defeats
Pandora, 33-32 Count
In their first game of the season
a Bluffton Junior High school team
edged Pandora seventh and eighth
graders by a score of 33 to 32 Tues
day evening in the Bluffton gym
nasium.
It took a last-half rally to turn
the trick for the Pirate beginners,
however, for Pandora held a 20 to
10 lead at halftime.
Donald Burkholder and Donald
Schmidt w-ere high point men for
Bluffton, the former garnering 10
points and the latter getting nine.

Four Miles of New Hard Sur
faced Highways Planned for
This Summer
Tom Fett and Swaney Roads
Slated for $10,400 Improve
ment Program
Four miles of new hard-surfaced
roads and one bridge will be built
in Richland township next spring aa

between the Dixie and Lincoln high
W’ays.
Estimated cost of the road con
struction is $2,600 per mile, or a
total of $10,400.
New Bridge
The new bridge will be built on
the Tom Fett road south of the
Ernest Gratz farm buildings. It will
