object to selling Old High school.
Residents In the neighborhood Of the old
high school are opposed TO the Board of
Education selling the building. They con-
tend that the need of a graded school in
that immediate vicinity will warrant the
board devoting the old high school to such
a purpose. ,....

the last two. or three years built homes
on Park ana Glen avenues in the immedl-
ate vicinity OF the old high school prop
erty. Their children are at present re-
quired to attend the Washington avenue
school, which is considerable distance

will not be long before a school will be
needed In the neighborhood OF Park, Glen

far more economical for the board to turn
the old high school building into a graded
school than erect q new building.
