No filing for NUHS board seat Contests are assured for most school board positions in the Golden Empire, but there are no candidates for one seat in the area's largest district. Thursday's filing deadline found 45 candidates for 26 local School board openings. However, there were no applicants for a 27th trusteeshipthe area three seat onthe Nevada Union High School board. That Grass Valley area post is being vacated by 83-year old Harold George Sr., who isretiring after 16 years as a trustee. County School Supt. Edward Fellersen planned to consult with Dep. Cotinty Counsel Brian Bishop today to determine whether this post will remain on the ballot, opening the possibility of a write-in candidacy. The alternate would be for the county superintendent to fill the vacancy by appointment. The election will be April 20 and those tapped will take office in July, The only measure onthe ballot is Grass Valley Elementary's request for a $1 tax rate increase. Nine people showed up to file in the closing hours, They included: Dennis L, Elliott, area four, Nevada Union; Jerry A, Oliver, Grass Valley; Richard W. Jones, Clear Creek; Richard A, Niver, Union Hill; Robert L. Darm, four-year term for area two, county school board; Ralph J. Sombs, Pleasant Ridge. Idabel M. Covert, Josephone K, Fugl and Randy Welker all filed for the new San Juan Ridge Union board which will replace North San Juan and Cherokee in 1972, That district will have nine candidates for five spots, making it the most contested election in the couhty. Welker also filed for the Cherokee board which has one year of life left. A few candidates virtually won election Thursday because no one filed to oppose them. They are: Ernst Bierwagen, incumbent in Chicago Park; KathleenGrill, incumbent in Washington; two incumbent county trustees, Charlene Welker in area three and Helen Elster in area four; and two new candidates in Ready Springs, Helen Lois Gordon and Kenneth I, Harper.

A single sewage collection system for Nevada City, Grass Valley and all their environs? A treatment system that deposits no effluent at all into Wolf or Deer Creeks? It sounds fanciful, but it is possible and it may be practical, Nevada City councilmen heard a very preliminary report on these possibilities Monday from engineer Jim Cranmer, who is studying ways to improve the city's sewage system and stop it from polluting Deer Creek. State Water Quality Board officials have said a study is needed to determine whether it is feasible to collect sewage from the two cities into a single system.

Whether this will be the least expensive and most practical method awaits more detailed study, but Cranmer held out the thought that such a system would allow residential areas adjacent to the two cities to have sewers. "It really opens up the whole area for ‘sewers,"" City Manager Beryl Robinson said. Cranmer added that a major benefit would be halting all deposits of effluent from Nevada City into Deer Creek, making that stream usable for a drinking water supply. He also hinted at the technical possibility of having the sewage effluent filter into the ground at the joint plant, thus avoiding the necessity of placing any treated emer directly into Wolf Creek 00.
