WOMEN WIN SCHOOL FIGHT
Get Large Majority for Site to In
clnde Fairgrounds.

PENNSGROvE. n. j., July IS
The vote for a larger site for the
proposed high school building was
won by the women, 60 of whom turn
ed out last night and voted for the
purchase of four acres of land. The
School Board had recommended the
use of a half-acre site which the bor-
ough owns near the old school, but
objection was raised because par
ents declared that this would not
give room for any Fairgrounds for
the GOO children who would attend
the school.
The proposition for the new school
was turned down a few months ago
because of the insistence of the
School Board in using the small site.
Last night voters had the opportun-
ity to make a choice of three sites.
The old one favored by the Board,
the Homan property, on East Main
street, and a section Of William A.
Sacks farm of four acres, on the ex-
tension OF State street. Mothers raj
lied in favor of the Sack site, and it
won by a majority of SO. 4 total
of Ill votes we're cast in favor of
the larger site; 80 for the Homan
property and II for the small half
acre lot. An appropriation OF sS9500
for the purchase Of the land and the
construction Of the school was ap-
proved by the voters.
