Seeking to Divide
Cannon Ball
School District

Three petitions are being or will
be circulated in the Cannon Ball
School District
Two Of these are for the division
Of the present Cannon Ball School
District into three districts, Can
non Ball, Porcupine and solen.
The third petition is a counter pet
itionEto prevent a division of this
kind. T
The controversy arose when the
school district voted to build new
school building at solen large en-
ough to contain a high school. The
people Of Cannon Ball and Porcu-
pine object to bearing their share of
the bonded indebtedness which
such Z building would entail.
