School Boards, both the local and the State, and they

select --

3
|
DR. SENSENBAUGH: Except Montgomery. That
|
4
|
is the only elected group.
|
5
|
MR. ENEY: And they select the State Super-
|
6
|
intendent or the County Superintendent, as the case may
|
7
|
be, and the statute is so arranged that I have heard
|
8
|
the expression sometimes that before he is appointed
|
9
|
the Board is the boss of the Superintendent and, after
|
10
|
he is appointed, the Superintendent is boss of the
|
11
|
Board because of the interplay between the statutes.
|
12
|
Now, I gather that you would strongly oppose
|
13
|
reversing this and having the Governor appoint and
|
14
|
remove the Superintendent and have the Board as merely
|
15
|
advisory, but I do not understand your statement to
|
16
|
give the specific reasons why you think that such a
|
17
|
change would be undesirable. You say you think it is
|
18
|
undesirable, that you have more stability and so forth,
|
19
|
but what specifically do you fear if the Governor were
|
20
|
to have the power to appoint the Superintendent? Is
|
21
|
it political interference that you would be concerned
