cruce Approves School Measures.
Contrary to expectation, the fifteen
school measures, carrying appropria-
tions of approximately 100000, were
approved by Governor Cruce. 1t is
understood, however, that although
the governor is opposed to the mum
Der of schools in the state, he felt that
no harm would be done by approving
the bills as he had been assured a
referendum to abolish certain OF the
scholastic institutions would be re-
ferred to the people in August.
The total appropriation amounts to
$679 900, with the university and the
A. & M. college not yet completed.
! With all of the schools included, it is
said that the state will have to pay
upwards of million and half for
the maintenance of these institutions.
The appropriation measures ap-
proved include the following institu-
tions: Ada normal, Goodwill school,
Tahlequah normal, Tonkawa school,
school at Broken Arrow, Edmond nor
NAL, Tishomingo school, Warner
school, Lawton school, Alva school,
Chickasha school for girls, Weather
ford normal Helena school, Durant
normal, and the school at Claremore.
