Teachers’ Federation and the current controversy over school board budgets was in- itially thought detrimental to the review process. How ever, the response from local associations and individual teachers has been gratify. ing.” “We are pleased with the large number of individuals and organizations who took the time and made the effort to complete all of the res- ponse document,” he said. “By far the majority of opin- ions epressed are well thought-out and expressed with care.

Gray whales friendly TACOMA (AP) — When a 12-metre gray whale with an itch decides to rub against your boat, Jim Darling of the West Coast Whale Research Foundation says let him do it. Gray whales are becoming friendlier these days, appar ently because research ves sels and other ships have rubbed them the right way, Darling told a forum spon sored by the Tacoma Zoo Society this wek Ship-rubbing once was thought to be confined to a few gray whales off the coast of Mexico but seems to be becoming more popular among the giant ocean mam mals, he said Gray whales range from Baja California through the North Pacific, often appear ing off the Washington and British Columbia coasts in April Darling said the behavior has made it more difficult for researchers to study the whales in their natural envir. onment.
