HAVRILLA WILL
HAVE SPLENDID
SHOP BUILDING

AS n more cog in the ever grow
ing and industrial Rawlins, James
Havrilla, who now own and runs
the Rawlins Tin Shop. will within a
short time have a new shop building
in which he plans to have one of the
most modern and up-to-date tin shops
and auto radiator repair stations in
the state.
Harry eastman is the contractor
for the new one-story brick building
which will be erected on Fifth street
between Front and Lincoln Way
streets. The property, owned by
Homer France, on the west side of
the street formerly occupied by
Bill Kirk has been sold to Jim
Havrilla and 1t is expected that with
in a weeks time the old building
will be torn down and the new %
by AZ brick building started. 1t is
estimated thai it will be completed
in about 80 days.
Havrilla plans to put in consider
able up-to-date machinery and in
addition to the tin work. in which
he has built up a reputation as being
one of the best in the southern part
OF Wyoming. will be equipped to
handle any kind OF automobile radi-
ator repair job. This latter named
feature will be an added advantage
to Rawlins residents for in past years
considerable expense was incurred by
car owners when 1t became necessary
to send the radiators to Denver to
have them repaired. The new shop
will be complete and modern in every
respect.
Bill Kirk, who for many years has
had a gun repair and small lathe
work shop in the building which will
be torn down next week. recently
sold his machinery and left Rawlins
for Old Mexico where he intends to
locate.

Grant seemed on the verge of COL
lapse as he testified.
Il found a lot of pinholes in the
drum" he said. "They looked like a
trifiing job to me, so I teIephoned the
Wholey boiler works. / told their man
to look at the boiler and see If the Job
could be done.
He told me he thought the Job
could be done, but later he came back
and said he did not believe he could do
it because of the moisture

told him the leak was so small we
would make the trip by dropping the

to make the trip. The explosion was

SCHOOLS WILL ASK
B|GGERALLOWANCE
More Money Needed to Buy
Up Available Property,
Commissioners Say.

A considerable increase in the
amount of appropriate tions asked for
purchase OF school and playground
sites will be incorporated in the sup
Elemental estimates now being pre-
pared by the District Commissioners
and Auditor Daniel j. Donovan for
submission to the Budget Bureau, to-
gether with the regular final budget
for the 1927 fiscal year due September
Is, it was indicated at the District
Building today.
While budget estimates cannot be
made public. both Commissioners Ru-
dolph and Bell declared today that it
was essential that larger appropria-
tions for the purchase OF available
sites for schools and Fairgrounds than
have been possible to make under the
regular budget of s36,000,000 set by
Budget Director Lord should be pro-
vided for the next fiscal year.
The city virtually has lost great
sums of money, the Commissioners
said, by not being able to purchase
sites for schools and Fairgrounds un-
til money was available for construc-
ton OF buildings or establishment of
the Fairgrounds.
1T is a costly procedure" Com
missioner Bell declared, ito have to
condemn improved property"
Commissioner Bell declared it would
even be a moneysaving practice for
the city to delay construction of
needed school buildings and ask for
appropriations for land for many
more schools and Fairgrounds, which
must be obtained in the near future,
at reasonable prices.
For the present fiscal year Con.
gress made appropriations amounting
to approximately 100000. A great
er increase for 1927 is essential, city
heads believe.
Commissioner Bell declared unless
great number of sites were obtained
now, the city would have to pay high
ly-inf1ated prices for the same needed
space within few years.
Commissioner Bell yesterday after.
noon inspected available sites for
Fairgrounds and schools. The de-
velopment in the last few weeks on
what had been vacant land availa BILE
for municipal purposes was convinc-
ing argument for the obtaining of
land now, he said.
