HIGH SCHOOL SITE NOT YET SELECTED Mayor Says That No Option
 Has Been Secured OPPOSITION MAY DEVELOP If the Bond Issue Carries at Special Elections In April Three School
 Buildings Are to Be
 Erected.
OPPOSITION MAY DEVELOP

Should a majority of the qualified voters of Birmingham favor the issuance of bonds to the amount of $2O0,OO0 by the city for school building purposes at the special election which has been ordered for April Il, such bonds will be issued and the funds secured with which to build two elementary schools and high school. One of the elementary schools will be located on the property owned by the city at Five Points. and known as Dren- nen park. and the other elementary school will be located in the vicinity of Twelfth avenue and Twenty-sixth street, north.
 Mayor Drennen. who is also the vice president Of the board of education, stated yesterday afternoon that it has not been decided where the high school would be located, if the bond issue carries at the special election. He would not state whether or not the idea to build the high school in Capitol park had been abandoned.
 No. Option on Lot.
 T will say positively that we have no option on a lot as a site for the proposed new HlBH SCuOOl Duilhlh6I dh iSpOiiS tO the contrary notwithstanding said Mayor Drennen.
 There has been no suggestion made yet as to how the s20OOOo would be ap- portioned. These are details to be looked after later.
 "A contest at the coming special elec- ton will not surprise me in the least. A large number of citizens and property owners have expressed themselves as be- ing in favor of the city issuing the bonds but opposition may develop at the special election.''
 Polling Places.
 The election will be held on the same day as the primary for the nomination of democratic candidates for county of fees. In a county election, however there are only four polling places in Birming- ham-two each in beats 21 and ST. At the special city election polling places will, under the city charter have to be es- tablished in each of the nine wards of the city. The city council will elect the clerks and managers for the election later.
 Dr. J. H. Phillips, superintendent of the Birmingham public schools, when asked concerning the matter yesterday after noon, stated that he did not know of any site now being considered by the officials as a location for the new high school building.
