therefore appoint a committee to
study the possibilities of alterna-

ioned in the Casper proposal ,but
might also extend new education-
al benefits to communities which
could not qualify under the leg-
islation proposed by the Casper
co~amtttee.
"4. That this committee of the
Board be instructed to confer fur-
ther with the Casper committe~
