He said purchasing irregularities in volving bribery of school officials had been uncovered. “There very well could be other criminal activity that you may uncov er in your investigation,” he said. Quinlan said two school em ployees and the former board chair man have been indicted on bribery and perjury charges. United Press International PAMPA — With a miniscule budget of $350 and good political organization, two teen-agers cham pioned the cause of some old, shady elm trees in the arid Texas panhan dle town and beat city hall. Steve Mills, 17, and Thad Ward, 19, Sunday were celebrating the de feat, 1,754 to 877, of a $4.8 million street improvement bond issue that would have meant destruction of scores of Chinese elm trees lining Somerville Street, one of the prettier streets in this town of 20,000. “I expected it to be closer than it was,” said Mills. “It dispelled a lot of what Ld always heard people say ab out how you can’t fight city hall.” The boys’ campaign began IMj months ago when they learned about the bond issue in the local newspap er, and began collecting $150 in donations from concerned citizens. The rest, they made up out of their own pocket. “We didn’t do any paid advertising until last Wednesday, he said. “We had two 60-second spots on radio ev ery hour and a newspaper ad every day. We also printed up 2,000 flyers and passed them out.” Mills and Ward got about 900 peo ple to sign petitions to save the trees, and the boys spent a lot of time on the streets, talking directly to the electorate. When city commissioners were presented with the petition, Mills said, they just said, “thank you for your concern.” The boys went home and began calling everyone who had signed, urging them to vote Satur day. They also took advantage of loc al uneasiness about a possible tax in crease. Neither of the boys had any in terest in politics before. Mills said, and they have no such plans for the future. “We had to do our duty,” Mills said. “No one else was standing up for the trees so I thought we ought to. In this country (the Texas panhandle) if you got a tree for God’s sake preserve it.” The stately elm trees have been an issue in Pampa since 1957 because the trees’ root system grows toward the drainage channels of Somerville Street, tearing up the pavement along the way. Voters previously beat back two attempts to widen the street. PBWRITEAS I blocs of arr-BVW6M——■ 3609 PLACE Don't let Mother's Day slip up on you!
