One of the most interesting and lengthy. meetings to be held by the Plymouth school committee in sev- eral years took place at the monthly meeting of the board, Monday even- ing in the office of the superinten- dent of schools, Harry.S. Fisher, in the town hall.
 Following much discussion, it was voted by the board to secure two sad- : ditional teachers to teach in the high school, this being made necessary by the increase enrolment which will be in the high school next fall. Pres- ent indications are that the enroll ment in the high school next fall will be 250 pupils. 50 pupils more than there are at the present time :. The freshman class will have 70 pupils or more. It is not known just what studies will. be taught by the two additional teachers to the staff. t.See.
 In addition to the two additional teachers in the high school, it will be necessary to make arrangements | whereby the pupils will be in school ljust for their recitations. due to the | crowded conditions which will exist. This will mean thats the pupils will be obliged to do their studying at home which will greatly hinder the pupil.
 A discussion also took place at the meeting in regard to the need of a new high school building in the town of Plymouth. The need of new building has been felt for a considerable time, and with the | crowded conditions of the school as they are at the present time and which will be felt next fall, the town is sadly in need of new building which in addition to having class rooms should contain an auditorium and gymnasium.
 Following much discussion, a committee was appointed by the school committee to confer with Selectman William Eustice in regard to calling a special town meeting in the near future at which time zee
 need of a new high school building
 will be explained to the tax payers and at the same time an appropria- tion asked from the town for the
 purpose of securing site for the
 proposed building and for the erec- ton of a new building.
 Several sites have been viewed by Ithe school committee during the past
 few weeks which will be explained i to the towns people at the special town meeting. Among the sites
 which have been examined is the l Bobinski meadow on High street, a
 piece of land containing about four acres of land which woulud also be suitable for an athletic field. The Approaches to this piece of land is not of the lest however as' steep

 which has been given some consid- eration is the Steinberg lot on Pros pect street, which would be large
