SCHOOL ERECTION
DELAY SUGGESTED
Municipal Architect Would Wait
for Full Fund on Stuart
Junior High.

A proposal that the beginning of
work on the Stuart Junior High school
in the northeast section be deferred
until additional funds can be obtain
ed TO construct the entire building at
one time has been advanced by Munic-
ipal Architect Albert l.. Harris.
The available appropriation for
this building is $475.O00 and the orig
inal plan was TO erect the main part
of the structure now and add wings
on both sides when the balance of
the money is obtained in a future
appropriation act, as is being done at
the Macfariand Junior High.
Mr.. Harris said the topography of
the site for the Stuart Junior High.
between Fourth and Fifth, Z and T
streets northeast. is such that the
erection of the building in piece-meal
fashion would not be advantageous.
There is a considerable slope to the
land between E and F streets. he
explained.
The ultimate cost of the structure
will be about sl.o00,000. so that ap-
proximately 100000 more is needed
to erect the entire building at one
time.
