Battle With Brush Fire. : Al special meeting of the voters .oi the twelfth school district on ] Fall Mountain held last evening, 1t was voted 10 purchase the Beals property as the site for a new school building. A check of the votes showed 22 in favor and 2l against. The action met with con. IaIderahle opposition and tho oppos- Ing forces suggested that the An drews site be purchased. A vote taken on the motion presented 10 the meeting showed 2i against this location with IT in favor.
 It was also decided to have the new school building of brick con- Istruction instead of wood, as was originally planned. Figures pre- scented by Superintendent of Schools Karl Rciche were responsible for this decision being made.
 The rural school committee of the board of education consisting of Ar thur s. Barnes, Karl Reiche and Miss Alice Brown was in attendance. MayT John F. Wade was also pres .ent. MT. Barnes was selected as chairman of the meeting.
 In spite Of the fact that the mat ter of a school site was apparently .concluslvely settled, there is a ru- lnor about the city this morning that a petition will be presented to the chairman of the school district within the next day or two asking that another meeting be called. Those who were not in favor of the Beals site are still unsatished and, according to information available, intend to fight the matter to the last ditch. Whether or not call for another session will be made, how ever, is problematical, as it Is be- lieved that immediate steps will be taken toward acquiring the Beas property and asking for bids on the proposed new building.
