New m-The construction
work on the new gymnasium has
begun under the supervision OF
U. G. Orr, a we'll known contrac-.
tor. Native rock from the quarry
at Laurel Park, which is now be-
ing cut, will be used. This gym
will be much larger than our pres
ent one; the dimensions being
116k by 1451a feet. The en-
trance will face Ninth Avenue
and as for the inside of the build
ing there is to be three playing
courts, four dressing-rooms and
stage.
Although this gym will not
benefit the present senior class,
they join the remainder of the
student body in welcoming this
new addition to the high school.
Industrial Arts Department
We appreciate the work which
Mr.. L. X. Singley with a few of
the boys from the industrial arts
are doing. They have
taken as a voluntary project the
cleaning up of the chair arms. In
this they sand the arms to re-
move all marks, then stain and
varnish them. When they arc
finished they resemble new chairs
and add to the looks Of the rooms.
We hope that these chairs will
attract those students who mark
them and discourage this practice.
This is only a part, but very i'm
portant part, of the beautifica-
ton program which the students
intend to carry out.
Rotary Club-At the regular
weekly meeting of the Rotary club
Jack Johnson, the representative
of, the school made: short speech.
He thanked the club for the in
terest they have taken in the
school and for. the wonderful CO.
operation they have shown in all
of our undertakings. ,..
