RUSHING WORK
ON NEW SCHOOLS
BOARD ARCHITECTS HAVE
BEEN STIRRED TO ACTION
Bids on Four Structures viii BE
Opened This Afternoon-con
Called for on Nineteen
Edifices

Architects employed by the city board
OF education to prepare plans for new
school buildings evidently have been
stirred to action, judging by the way
the drawings arc now coming In.
There was q good deal of delay In
this work at the start, but the indica-
tions are that 1t will be all cleared up
within the next week or two.
The board now is ready to enter into
contracts for seven more new buildings
and additions to old ones, bids having
been called for that number to he
opened June 20.
The bids asked for are on the fol-
lowing work.
Bids Are Asked
One two-room building on the Mitch
eltoreno street site, on Mitcheltoreno
street near Sunset boulevard.
Four-room annex to the Utah street
building. at Utah and Kearney streets.
iFour-room annex to the Second street
building, on Second near State.
Five-room addition to the Cornwell
street building, at the corner of Corn
well and Sheridan streets
Eight-room addition to the washing
ton street building, on Washington
street and Budlong avenue.
Five-room addition to the Boyd street
building, on Boyd near San Pedro.
Four-room addition to the Fifty
fourth avenue building. on Fifty-fourth
avenue and Monte Vista street.
Open This Afternoon
This makes a total of nineteen new
buildings and additions for which con-
tracts have been called. Bids on four
of these buildings will be opened at
3 o'clock this afternoon, as follows:
Eleven-room building on the Logan
street site, corner of Logan and Mon

ward between Tenth and San Marino
streets.
On Seven More Buildings
Bids on seven more buildings will be
opened June 22 and at that time bids
for painting several of the lschoo
buildings also will be considered.
1t is expected that the board will take
action ON the bids to be opened today
at the meeting called for June q.
AT any rate, it will be unable TO
award any contracts before that date,
owing to the fact that two Of it's mem
berS are out of the city at present, and
it takes six members to vote on ex-
penditures of money. 1t was for this
reason that the salaries were not fixed
at the last regular meeting of the
board Monday night.
The two members who are out of the
city are Messrs. Scott and Frank Mr..
Scott is expected to arrive home June
q, but Mr.. Frank probably will not
return until day or two later. With
Mr. Scott hand bnwaUar fhn
sary six members to vote on expendit-
ure of money will be in Los Angeles
and action on the salary and new build
ing questions Will be possible.

MORE WATER FOR
EUCLID HEIGHTS
LARGER MAINS ARE BEING
LAID BY THE CITY
Growth of Population Has Been Such
That Old Pipes Could Not Fill
the Demand in
District

superintendent Mulholland of the
water department has taken steps to
relieve the conditions on Euclid
Heights which for some time have
caused water famine in that district
during certain hours of the day.
Two large gangs of workmen have
been sent into that section of The city
for the purpose of laying mains which
the superintendent says will increase
the capacity at least tenfold.
With the beginning of the recent hot
spell conditions became rather serious
for the residents of Euclid Heights.
From o'clock in the evening until
10 o'clock they frequently have been
entirely without water supply So
complete has been this "shut-off" at
times that not drop of water could
be drawn from the faucets even on the
lower floors of the dwellin. :.
Last year trouble of a similar ma
ture was experienced, but It was not
until the latter part of August that it
became serious, and then was quickly
remedied. There was good deal of
nervousness, therefore, when it was
found that this year there was a fam
Inc early in June, and that conditions
were greatly aggravated as compared
with last summer.
Buckets and Tubs
The people living in that district did
not relish the idea of being compelled
to guard against lack of water for
four hours every night by filling all
their available tubs and buckets during
the afternoon, to say nothing of the
conditions which would prevail were a
fire to break out.
superintendent MulhollanC says that
in a short time the residents of Euclid
Heights will have no further cause for
complaint, as he now has men at work
laying new mains.
These mains. he says, will De so much
larger than the I'D ones that the sup
ply of water in that district will be
greatly Increased.
According to Mr. MulhOlland the
trouble has all been due to the small
mains that were laid throughout that
section some years ago. These served
their purpose fairly we'll for a time,
but the growth of population has been
so rapid that they now are entirely in
adequate.
The work now in progress will be
pushed to completion as rapidly as pos
sible, as the water board recognizes
the necessity for improved facilities in
that section, and the promise is made
that in a comparatively -ort time
Euclid Heights will be as we'll supplied
with water as is any other part of Los
Angeles.
