Mckinley and Business High
Both to Get New Buildings
Under Swear Plan


Two new structures are included
A the five-year building program
for the senior and junior high
schools made public today by
Superintendent Ballou.
The program calls for providing
accommodations each year for $50
additional pupils, besides accumu-
lated shortages. To meet both
increases and existing shortages,
. plan is mapped out to provide
classroom space for 1864 pupils
each Of the first four years, and
1855 pupils in 1880, assuming
that the program becomes opera
tive in 1926. It is stated that
there are now 1921 pupils in the
high schools in excess of present
accommodations.
High Points I'm Plan
The high school program calls
for:
Construction OF new building for
Mckinley Manual Training School
on site now owned by the District
adjoining the Langley Junior High
School.
Construction of a new building
for Business High School on a
site now owned by the District adj
joining the Mcfarland Junior High
School.
Transfer of the Shaw Junior
High School to the building now
occupied by Mckinley.
Transfer Of the business depart
ment of Dunbar High School and
the organization of a business high
school for colored pupils in the
building now occupied by Shaw
Junior High School.
Purchase of land in the vicinity
Of Armstrong Technical Hi Z h

FORM SCHOOL
CLUB
Business High Girls Adopt
Novel Method to Bring
CIiques Together

1.-THE Bobs and tho Ants is the
name given to a new girls social
club formed at Business High
School to bring together the girl
students of each type.
The club was formed under the
direction Of Mrs. Alice Canning,
who thinks bobbed hair is pretty,
but admits she Is not keen" about
1t. She declares, however, it is not
true that bobbed-haired girls do not
receive as good marks as their long
haired sisters.
The club grew out of playful
teasing, of Mrs. Canning over the
difference of opinion when groups
of girls 'loafed" in her room out
OF class time. Mrs. Canning fixed
the inflexible rule that for every
bobbed-hair girl admitted, one girl
with long hair must become a mem
Der, too. The newly-elected presi-
dent has bobbed hair.
She Is Dorothy Harvey. Other
candidates were Marguerite Lime
rick and Mary Johansen, the latter
having long hair.
