<br />and careful deliberation in the matter, it was determined by the Board that any and all excess
<br />race track money which had been, or may be, received by the Board would be needed for rights- of -
<br />way purchases relating to State Road #5 south of the City limits of Vero beach and extending toy
<br />the south County line; therefore, the Board would not be in a position, although sympathetic with
<br />the teachers program as they are, to render or grant additional financial assistance.
<br />Mrs. Elliott and Auxier, speaking in behalf of the. Committee, told the Board
<br />that after receiving information as to facts and figures relating to the County needs reguarding
<br />,road rights-of-way that they were in a better position to understand and transmit such information
