However, they said no decision could be made until they had met in closed sessions with employe representatives. No salary increases were included in this year's budget, which reflected cuts, approaching $400,000 forced district's dwindling financial posture. A special meeting is being called at 2 p.m. Friday at El Camino School to consider recommendations on spending the added income. The district's integration plan also came under fire Wednesday as parents said they prefer neighborhood schools over busing.

Carmen Ln. that the neighborhood's ethnic nature was changing. "We want our children to walk to school," she said of the proposed cuts in busing. "'We don't want to bus them." But she made it clear that walking to Rice School was what they meant.

Along with other parents, she contended that the route to Bruce is unsafe for young children because of traffic volume, premarily on Donovan and on Broadway. "I feel we have a legitimate complaint," she said in asking the board to phase children in the area bounded by Broadway, Taylor, Miller and Preisker back into Rice School. She said another section of the Rice area located closer to Bruce School could be sent there. "The children in both areas could walk a safe distance then," she said. Mudge said Bruce School is close to an ethnic imbalance and that the change requested could cause problems.

said any change "would affect us every place else in the district." Reaction among parents included threats of keeping children home or sending them to private schools rather than allow them to face the hazards of walking to Bruce School. Several suggestions were made, including different bus patterns. The need for more crossing guards was also emphasized. School Board President Mrs. Mary Bellis said that crossing guards could only be provided by the city.
