BEGIN ADVERTISING
FOR BIDS TO ERECT
new JUNIOR HIGH

Advertising for bids for the con-
tract and sale of bonds for the East
Side Junior high school building, to
be located between South Twenty
second and Twenty-third streets and
South B, was started Saturday Bids
on both the contract and sale of the
$240,000 bond issue for the building
will be opened the same day, July 3.
Approval of the state tax board is
not needed for this bond issue, ac
cording to the statement of member
of the school board Saturday He said
the fact that this was an issue bear
ing only Az per cent interest would
exempt it from the necessity of going
through the hands of that body.
There need be no increase in the
tax rate to care for building the EasI
Side junior high school buildings, as
the present rate will care for the re
tirement of the bonds, he said
Second Step Planned.
Building of the east side school Is
the second step in a plan of the schoo
board to divert travel of pupils from
the center of the city, and save steps
for the younger pupils. The plan is
to have four Junior high school build
ings, one in each part of the city, tc
which the pupils of that section will
go.
By following out this plan, the pu
pills will not need to go through the
congested section of town and only the
older pupils, who attend the senior
high school, will be seen in the down
town section.
