Carson st. Autnorized work In­ cludes the patching and repair­ ing of existing pavement prior to the resurfacing of the road­ way.

The work has been planned and scheduled to minimize traf­ fic interference during peak hours. However, Chace suggest­ ed that motorists should try to avoid this section of Bataan dur­ ing the construction period.

Also authorized for improve­ ment in the Carson area was the resurfacing of Mr-Helen ave. from 210th st. to Carson st.

Chace disclosed that Sepulveda blvd. has just been resurfaced from Avalon blvd. to Main st. This work also included patch­ ing and repairing existing pave­ ment prior to the application of the new surface.

"Recent traffic counts indicate that approximately 15,300 ve­ hicles utilize this particular por­ tion of Sepulveda blvd. daily," Chace said.

The County Road Department has been authorized to recon­ struct the pavement on 242nd st. between Narbonne and Eshel- man aves.

The completion of this work will decrease road maintenance cost and M»ill provide increased road surface drainage.

In addition, the department was authorized to start exten­ sion of the pavement on Cypress st. between 250th snd 255th sts. to join curbs and gutters con­ structed by adjoining property owners.

Cafeteria Economy Move On

The costs of providing i iklk and a graham cracker to all kindergarten children in the n 'or- ranee Unified School District vill. go from four to five cents >.hte year.

In an effort to battle inflation, the school board Tuesday ap­ proved the hike. Previously, no rharge has been made for th» graham crackers, which cost the district about $2500 last year. The action was taken to le<spn the cafeteria deficit at. most ele» mentary schools.

In another step to econon li» on cafetofia operations, *! mentary teachers now will no longer receive double helping:' of lunches.

If a teacher is still hunjrry af­ ter eating a regular childr n'« lunch, he will be required to pay for a second meal.

Last year the cafeteria opera­ tion went. $10,000 in the red en the lunch program.
