Gaung.
Imperial Valley press., 1909-07-17

With huge steam shovels, dozens of scrapers and wagons and several big gangs of men actively at work on the grading of the San Diego 6 Arizona railroad, San Diegans are now seeing their dreams of many years for direct railroad connection with the east becoming realized. Already more than five miles of the right of way have been graded, and within the next couple of months 1t is ex- pected the work will be completed from San Diego to a point on the in- ternational boundary line near Tia Juana, a distance of slightly more than fifteen miles.
 It will be by means of Carriso gorge that the road will find its en- trance iato the Imperial desert, con- tinuing through the Imperial Valley to Yuma, Arizona, a distance of 220 miles from San Diego. The final route from Carriso gorge to Yuma has not yet been selected. Two lines have already been run by the sur- veyors and the third is now nearing completion. From these three pre- liminary routes the final route will be selected.
 The most practicable and shortest possible route between San Diego and Yuma, Arizona, is to be followed. It is estimated that the total length of the route is 220 miles, though it Is possible that this distance may be shortened slightly. In any event 1t will bring San Diego people into di- rect communication with the east, and 100 miles nearer than any other Southern California ciey, and this Is what is most desired.
 For years it had been the dream of San Diego people that they might have direct railroad connection with the east. A road by way of the fam ous Imperial Valley was greatly de- sired, for this would bring to the very doors of the city one of the most fer tile regions in the entire world, not excepting even the rich Nile valley. Accordingly when MT. Spreckels an- nounced that he would build the road it is not to be wondered at that res idents of this city, who full we'll real ized what the announcement meant,

 After signing the roll, the meeting proceeded to elect officers. On mo- tion of Allen Kelly, Geo. A. Carter was elected president by unanimous vote. T. B. Blanchard was elected vice president without dissent, and three other directors were chosen by ballot The board consists of Geo. A.. Carter, T. B. Blanchard, C. E. Sprouse, Phil D. Swing and Dan V.

HIGH SCHOOLS PROGRESS
Additional Regular and Special Teach
 CTS Engaged For Coming Year.

The trustees of the Central Union High School met last Saturday, July 10th, in accordance with the law, and organized for the ensuing year. The trustees are M w. Conkling, El Gen. tro District; H. w. Moorehouse, Deal; Fred Fuller Helper; Mir. Campbell Silsbee: c. W. Nichols, Adair E. E. Forester, Eucalyptus; Harry Vanden- heuvel, Elder. The board organized by electing MT. Conkling President and MT. Moorehouse, Clerk.
 The Board decided to cooperate with the Grammar School Trustees in employing special teachers of drawing and music, also to add one more reg ular teacher to the high school fac ulty. Principal B. c. Nichols and Miss Mary A. Sands were reelected; Miss Sue M. Gregory, of Monterey, and Miss Eva Hunter, of Los Angeles, were elected as regular teachers; Miss Eth el H. Foster, of Hadley, Wash, was chosen as a special teacher of music. She will also teach one or two other classes in the high school. Miss Garnet Davis, of Fl Centro, was elected special teacher in drawing.
 The addition of these teachers makes possible more complete list of subjects, which are ordinarily offered in high schools of approved standing. Last year the school offered four years each of Latin and English; three years each of mathematics, history and science, and two years each of Spanish and music. Next year the mathematics, history and science will each be increased by one additional year; and drawing, both free hand and mechanical, will be offered. This means the addition of the specific subjects of trigonometry, English, his- tory, botany, and drawing
 Besides this regular high school work Principal Nichols is planning special classes for those students particular ly deficient in spelling, writing, read ing and composition. He alos intends to personally instruct class once a week in the subject of parliamentary law, civics, and augmentation. This class will not be open to first year students.
 The High School will open in the fall on the third Monday in Septem- Der, unless something unforeseen pre- vents.
 The incoming freshman class will probably not be as large as last fall, but most of last years students will return and there will be quite a num- Der of transfers. Forty was the total enrolment for last year; the average daily attendance for the year was thirty-two. An examination of State records show that no high school has been started in California of late years having as high an enrolment. Usually high schools have been started with less than twenty students.
 The place of holding school next year has not been definitely decided. The High School Board has made an offer to the grammar school trustees for the rental of lthe old grammar school
