tG-l6AL DuiiuinEt anu we lGlL We Qlu | not want to put poor teachers in it, Fer we could take the best building with poor instructors and haveN a worthless school On the contrary. it We had barn and good teachers for it, we would have a good schooi We felt good building without real teachers was poor policy.
 At first. architecturally it seemed as though between the two Wood lawn churches on First avenue, our building would not look well. But since it is up the whole thing looks fine just like little civic center"
 The seating capacity of the ne High" is very large. The building is equipped with laboratories anu shops, the library being possibly the handsomest public room in Brming- ham. It is William B. Ittner- made structure. He is a nationally known architect. and was assisted by Harry B. Wheelock company here.
