TEACHERS NEED
SOME LOCKERS


All available space having been
taken up In the addition of two OK
ira classrooms at the grammar
school, lockers such as will be placed
In the high school some time this
week for the clothing OF the pupils,
viii be installed In the lower corrf-
dor of the grammar school for the
benefit of the teachers there. Since
the only unused room has been made
ia classroom. the teachers have had
no place to keep their wearing APP
Iparel. Some had purchased hat
trees. which were placed IN their
eIassrooms, on which they hung
their coats and hats.
Several teachers presented their
claims for q change In the conditions
to the building committee of the
Board of Education, and after con-
sultation with Superintendent Shull
the committee has decided to allow
about a dozen lockers to be used for
the convenience OF the teaching force
of the school. >They will be taken
from the number ordered for the
high school, and Will be installed
upon their arrival.
After consideration, the faculty Of
the high school have determined not
to present any petition to the board
regarding the placing OF the new
lockers In the high school corridors.
While still wrought UP by the plans
of the building committee. believing
that the lockers will cause more een-
gestion than Yer In the halls,
through which tho classes pass from
time to time, they believe 1T to be
folly to go against the plans of the
board. The matter was brought up
informally among the teachers, and
all EXPRESSED the same opinion re-
Earding the matter. Principal e. Fl.
KleInhans said he was In favor of
petitioning the board to place the
lockers in the cioakroems, and that
he would SIGN such a petition, but as
principal he would not be the prime
mover Ia the affair. It was finally
decided to drop the matter entirely.
