In Water Festival
Little Interest Shown
Only a half-dozen people
showed up for a Water FestivaU
Committee meeting Tuesday
evening at City Hall. According
to those present the Committe
has eight thousand dollars from
last year and another eight
thousand dollars in state funds
for the current year.
Many area businessmen fear
that if the Water Festival is
allowed to lie dormant this year
Summers County will lose the
event for keeps.
The Three Rivers Canoe
Association kept a vestage of
the event alive last year by
sponsoring a two-day schedule
of canoe races.

ment that some school board
members may be hiding behind
letters and opinions from Assis-
tant State Superintendent of
Schools Clarence Burdette. The
latest letter, dated May 16, was
referred to at the last school
board meeting and was the
basis for the board decision to
hire a second appraiser and
assume Federal funds were
used to purchase the land oc-
cupied in part by the Summers
County Career Center.
In the first paragraph of
Burdette's letter he accepts the
board's answers to questions
raised in a previous letter. The
answers, in essence, stated that
it was none of Burdette's con-
cern. Burdette chose to ignore
questions put to him by County
Superintendent D. E. Tasses at
the board's direction.
In Burdette's second para-
graph he neatly ducks the
question of whether there were
Federal funds used to purchase
the land. He simply states that
he is satisfied that the funds
were restricted.
Paragraph three does pin the
monies down as being Federal.
County School Treasurer Joe
Kessler said, however, that in a
telephone conversation• the day
before the receipt of the letter,
Burdette claimed there was no
Vocational Education Act of
1905-State. Kessler produced
several Notices, Affidavits, and
copies of Warrants that were
coded as Vocational Education
Act of 196&State. The warrants
amounted to several hundred
thousand dollars. Kessler said
that during the phone conversa-
tion, Burdotte also said he had
no idea why the warrant in
question was ceded as repre-
senting state funds.
It should also be noted that
neither Burdette nor any of his
present staff were employed by
the State Board of Education at
the time the questioned trans-
action took place. Current
Summers County Board Pres-
ident W. J. B. Simmons and
BOard Member J. D. Woodrum
were on the County Board at the
time and recall specifying' that
tion was apparently to avoid the
present problem.
At the request of County
Board Member Donald Hannah,
the entire body of Mr. Burdett's
most recent letter follows:
"I have received your letter
of May 4, 1979, in which you
have answered my questions
relating to utilization of a part
of the Career Center land for a
football field. My questions I
were intended to cause you and'
the Summers County Board to
give consideration to what app-
ear to me to be potential pro-
blem areas for the career cen-
ter in this project. While the
answers to all of my questions
do not necessarily indicate full
consideration and thought to
these potential problems, I shall
accept your answers.
"While there may he some
questions in your mind as to the
source of funds used in this
project and whether or not therb
are restrictions upon those
funds, there is none in mine. In
each case, the superintendent of
schools in Summers County
specifically requested funds for
the specific purpose of purchas-
ing land and constructing an
area vocational school. The use
of those funds is specifically
restricted to those purposes."
"In each case, in requesting
funds, an affidavit was signed
by the Summers County Sup-
erintendent of Schools, and pro-
perly notarized, indicating that
the Board had obligated them-
selves for allowable expendit-
ures under the Vocational Ed-
ucation Act of 1968- a Federal
Act- and that all funds being
requested would be Spt in
accordance with the require-
ments of that Act. The funds
transmitted to Summers County
were Federal and State funds in
the amount indicated to you in
my letter of April 25."
"I am sending you with this
letter a copy of the form to
which I am referring and also
another copy of the section of
the Federal rules and regulat-
ions which apply."
