Robert Fuson, an assistant munic-
ipal counselor, said off-hand it ap-
pears the Tulsa restriction would
not apply in the capital city because
the Oklahoma City Public Proper-
ties Authority was created under a
different law than was the Tulsa
County Fairground Trust Authority.
In Oklahoma City, the public
questions about Oklahoma City's
situation. Another city spokesman,
who asked not to be named, said it
appeared to him the city's fair-
grounds arrangements might be
affected. But he said a study of Cart-
wright's opinion is needed before
that question could adequately be
answered.
Rep. John McCorkell, D-Tulsa,
asked for the opinion from Cart-
wright. He said today he is not fa-
miliar with the Oklahoma City fair
contract. "But it does raise a se-
rious question as to whether a city
trust can lease out its fairgrounds
and delegate managerial control,"
he said.
The Tulsa matter arose after a
court ruling that lease of the fair-
school facility
SHATTUCK — Completion of the
new high school auditorium here
was assured following approval of a
$200,000 bond issue Tuesday, school
officials said.
Voters approved the auditorium
improvements set to include instal-
lation of new seats, draperies, ceil- •
ing and interior walls by a 287 to 73
vote.
Construction of the outer auditori-
um shell was approved in an earlier
bond issue. The remaining funds to
complete the $325,000 project will

knowledged today they will have to ’ at the opinion before answering
take a look at an attorney general's
opinion which could affect the State
Fair of Oklahoma and the State Fair
board's contract with Oklahoma
City.
Attorney General Jan Cartwright
ruled late Wednesday that Tulsa has
no power under the law to enter a
contract with the Tulsa Exposition
and Fair Corporation to give the lat-
ter exclusive responsibility for pro-
ducing the annual Tulsa State Fair.
All persons questioned today were
reluctant to state whether the opin-
ion would apply to the Oklahoma
City fair, a similar public trust and
the local fairgrounds until they
know more about the ruling.
