NORTH ST. SITE
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
GAINS IN FAVOR
Pledge of Directors to People
Is Recalled; Natural Adj
vantages Noted

Indications are that opinion In
the School Board Is slowly concen-
trating on the North street civic CEN
ter site for the girls high school,
There are several reasons for this,
lE the first place a number OF the
directors recall that the promise was
made by the board and those asso-
ciated with 1t In campaigning for the
million and quarter high school
loan last fall that the school would
bo centrally located, Between the
river and the railroad and below
Briggs street" was the exact wording
Of the expert report upon which
the school loan was based, The
North street site Is the only avail
able property covered by these speci.
fications,
Artistic and Practical
Beyond the advisability of locating
the new high school on the civic
center created by the extension OF
Capitol Park, which from an artistic
standpoint has the recommendation
of expert engineers In charge of de-
velopments In the extension zone,
there is the very practical question
of car fare,
The Front street site or one on the
Hill, 1t Is pointed out, will necessitate
car fare for hundreds of pupils daily,
with an hour or moro required to get
to and from school. Even the pro-
posed forty-acre university" site on
the Hill at Herr street would not be
within reach of people residing at
the lower end of the Hill except by
roundabout street car trip through
the city, There is no direct line now
running to that section.
On the other hand. the North
street location is so central that
pupils from all parts of the city
could reach 1t with little or no delay
and at minimum of expense with
regard to car fare.
The additional outlay involved
would be met by taxation If the
North street plot Is purchased, 1t is
pointed out, but by a direct assess
ment on the part OF the taxpayer in
the way of car fare If the Front
street location is chosen.
The University Club Plan
Directors who have favored the
Herr street forty-acre plot because
a university plan might be worked
out there in connection with the high
school buildign are convinced that
it would be impossible TO take up
that system here except at too great
cost, for the reason that only the
girls high school could be located
there unless the proposed junior high
school building are convinced that
were thrown over and the expensive
Technical high school plant aban-
doned. The city is too far along in
its high school development plans to
attempt the university idea now, 1t is
pointed out. JohnStown is Spending
$500, 900 to house 500 pupils on the
university plan and the program is
not completed.

the nation by the road of victory

organization of its own political life.
But shall never betray Russia into
the hands of its traditional foe-the
German race, or make the Russian

Claims Support
In the second proclamation Gen.
eral Korniloff declares he Is sup
ported by all of the higher COM
manders on the front. denounces the
government for incapable govern
ment, weakness and indecision and
declares that in order to veil it's
unfitness the government is creating
the chimera of nonexistent counter
revolution.
The provisional government has
under the martial law regulations
prohibited the circulation of Gen.
eral Korniloff's manifestos or the
publication of unofficial news con-
cerning military measures taken
against the revolt.

SAN SALVADOR WIPED OFF
MAP BY EARTHQUAKE E
City of $4,000 Population, Destroyed
by Earthquake or Volcano

City of $4,000 Population Destroyed
by Earthquake or Volcano
San Juan Del Sur, Nicaragua, Dis
patch, June 8.
San Salvador, the capital of the
republic of Salvador, with a popula-
ton of more than 10000, has been
totally destroyed, according to dis
patch from San Miguel, Salvador.
No details as to the manner in which
the city was destroyed have been re-
ceived but it undoubtedly was the re-
suit of an earthquake or volcanic
eruption.
San Salvaor is about three. miles
southeast of the volcano of San Sal
vador, and is the seat of government
of the smallest but most densely pop
ulated of the republics of Central
America.
First record Of an earthquake there
was in 1875, when the entire CITY
was nearly leveled and so persons
perished.
The city, which was founded about
1875, is located about 120 miles south
east OF the town Of Guatemala, and
rs on a small stream which flows in
to the Pacific ocean.
Ane CITY is connected by rail with
Acatjutla and La Libertad and con-
tains large university, the national
palace, the national library and as
Economical observatory and a botan.
acal garden. 1t has large agricul.
tural trade.
The country of San Salvador itself
consists mainly of a plateau about
S2,ooo feet above the sea, broken by Z
Sarge number Of volcanic cones. It:
population is 1,133,00O, and the mos
recent census places the number O.
inhabitants in the capital at $4,000.
