To Rush Work On
New Gymnasium;
Second to None

Plans and specifications for the
new gymnasium, prepared by Don
Wells, architect, have been accepted
by the board of trustees of Central
Union high school, and bids for con-
struction will be advertised at once
so that the building may be started
early in the new year.
The structure will be of rein
forced concrete, the total dimensions
being 81 by 164 feet. The floors
will be of maple and there will be a
trussed roof, the inside to be open to
the roof.
The structure will conform in
style to the manual training build
ing, and will be placed west of that
building and south of the high
school.
There will be two entrances, the
building to consist of two depart
ments separated by sliding doors, one
to be used by the girls and the other
by the boys. Each main room will
be 80 by 20 feet in dimension, and
when the two are thrown together,
the total floor space will be 20 by
100 feet.
Every Feature Complete
Each department will include a
room for the director, a special ex-
ercise room, and a shower with dress
ing rooms at either side of it.
The gymnasium will be heated
throughout bv steam piped from the
central plant and the showers will
be connected for hot water.
A balcony will cross each end of
the building which will serve as con
nection with other buildings if they
are ever needed.
The cost of the building will be
100000, it is estimated.
The gymnasium when finished will
be equipped with up-to-date appara.
tus, and will be complete in every
detail.
