Bulk gasoline storage tanks — not additional classroom space at the high school—have top priority in capital outlay building projects, according to lists presented by the Rappahannock School Board members at last week's meeting.

Chairman Beverly Massie has previously requested the other Board members to decide on thei» personal priorities and had scheduled a discussion on capital outlay for the September meeting. At the September 12 session, she went around the Board table, asking each member individually for the building needs he felt were most critical.

Alan Stokes gave installation of bulk gasoline storage tanks and pumps as his first—^and only—priority for capital outlay. Board member Walter Masterson had no priorities. According to Masterson. no building projects should even be considered as long as more than 370 children at the elementary school are reading below grade level. Improvement in reading, he insists, should receive undivided attention first. Arthlinda Quaintance also had no priorities for capital outlay. Paul Nichols gave installation of the bulk tanks as his first priority with sewage disposal plants at both the elementary and high school
