Illinois grade and high schools' transportation systems have developed into big businesses in 1950, if a survey of Community Unit School district 1 bus route here is a criterion.

Eight buses of the Gibson City unit will travel 69,888 miles this year, carrying 110,544 passengers at a cost of $15,195 to district taxpayers. This cost is lower than the state averaze. says SudL Warren M. McCartan, the man who compiled the basic figures for the survey. Costs Cent Per A breakdown of the above totals shows the "average pupil is carried 26 miles daily to and from school at a cost of 27 cents, or slightly more than one cent a mile.

This average student who probably would be hard to point cut rides an average or nour and 40 minutes a day. If commercial car-ier rates were applied to this bus system, a gross profit of $43,112.06 would be entered on the ledger this year. This profit would be figured on a rate of three cents a mile for carrying pupils 1,437, 072 Dassenzer miles. But. of course, students don't pay fares before they select a bus seat for the daily nde to school Travels Nearly 50 Miles.

The longest standard route in this system is 25 miles, but an estimate of the Foosland route places it close to 50 miles. This circuit carries students to Doin the Foosland grades and Gibson Citv Hieh school doubling back over the same roads to serve all the students in the south district area. The shortest route, including into wn driving, is 18 miles. Each bus carries, on an aver age, 41 pupils over routes that average 26 miles each. On a daily basis, the eight orange vans clock 208 miles on their collective sDeedometers in covering the 87 sauare mile dis trict.

They transport 329 students to and from schools each aay. Yearly Cost Figured. Per nunil cost is figured at $46.18 for a 168 day school year. Gibson City's bus trasnportation system started in 1942, with two buses. They were used mauwy ior high school student transport, although at that time a few graders were carried to rural attendance centers.

Since that time a consolidated grade school district has been formed around the Gibson City rrrad school and transportation facilities exDanded. Today the buses carry 239 grade pupils and 93 high school students. JOHII J. ZYEKG, Inc. 305 Peoples Bank Bloomington, 111.
