I ft If I BRADENTON A resurvey of drainage needs around the extensive campus of Manatee Area Vocational-Technical Center has been authorized by the school board here. The project, to cost a maximum of $3,000, was recommended for the growing facility by both the administration and by project architect Douglas Croll. According to Dr. Oscar E. Hamilton, assistant superintendent for noninstructional purposes, the development of a master drainage plan for the whole area is a "must" before further building and parking lot development can go forward.

Hamilton said that the land surrounding the multi-acre campus south of Bayshore has changed drastically in character of drainage since MAVTC was first conceived in the mid-1900's and that the drainage of the site itself must, of necessity, change so that the whole area can be coordinated into a proper drain pattern. The center is growing at a rapid rate. Phase III of the project, a new agriculture education center and nursing facility, are ahead of schedule on construction but the parking, for these new areas should wait until proper drainage for the whole complex can be devised.

Kinney has been named to design the new elementary school for Manatee County to be east of the Braden River. Kinney, a veteran in his profession, got the nod on a 3-2 vote-when School Board Chairman Dr. Robert White sided with board" members Mary Yelvington and Alan Murray against William Lacy and Ted Griffin. Lacy had opposed the appointment because Kinney, when interviewed, hadn't come up with drawings or costs for the new facility. He was opposed in his reluctance by School Supt.

Dr. William H. Bashaw who noted an architect can't be reasonably expected to design and cost out a facility without either being hired or furnished exact specifications. According to Lacy, he wanted to wait until' Kinney had done the design and costing before giving him the nod to design the new school which has been dictated for the area. Lacy's contention also included a jab against the board's policy of hiring local architects when possible.

He cited cases where other local architects had made mistakes on other projects. YAM Leader Says Manatee I In Brief LiJ State Funds Unequal minantly white Florida State University.

Tribune Bureau TALLAHASSEE Florida municipalities, operating jails ranging from one cell units to giant stockades, are bracing for a full-scale inspection by the Florida Division of Corrections starting July 1. Division Director Louie L. Wainwright said his department is geared up to start taking a critical look at city jails to ascertain if they comply with rigid standards adopted by the state last year, generally dealing with the health and welfare of inmates as well as security. Seven more prison inspectors have been added to the division's staff to handle the inspections, the first involving city jails in the state. Although inspections were authorized last year the program was not funded until this year, Wainwright said.

Presently only county jails and state prisons are inspected by the department. By MARJORIE GREEN Tribute Staff Writer LAKELAND The second district court of appeals yesterday ruled that an Orange County grand jury could legally investigate the Lake County sheriff's department.

Liles, acting as chief judge in the case with concurrence from Judges Joseph P. McNulty and Robert T. Mann denied the writ as being without merit. Judge Liles cited a state law which specifically allows a circuit court judge to transfer an inquiry to another county within the circuit or outside of the circuit. McCall, a fiery veteran sheriff who has been emboiled in controversy for more than two also failed earlier to have Orange County Circuit court Judge Parker Lee McDonald intervene in the probe.

The grand jury will convene in Orlando at 9:30 a.m. Monday to begin the investigation into the death of Lake County prisoner Tommy V. Vickers, 38, of Miami. VICKERS, WHO was being held on a $26 traffic warrant in the jail, died two days after being admitted to a Eustis hospital.
