laLer surveyed. ACCORDING 10 POSI-
master Frederick c. Flynn there
has been no further information
received here as to the plans of the
government. He expresses himself
as optimistic, feeling that within a
few weeks definite information will
be received.
Members Of the building commit
tee Of the anticipated new high
school building met last night and
studied plans and specifications
which were presented by an out Of
town firm. There Is a hope, 1T is
understood, that should the gov
eminent grant which has been ap-
piled for be refused, that the town
will provide the entire amount
which would be necessary for a new
building. Should the finance board
and town approve Of such action 1t
is further understood that a less
expensive building than was PLAN
ned with government aid, would be
considered. The need of a new
building so that the present un-
suitable Center school buildings
might be abandoned, was emphas-
lied when the town at a meeting
several months ago voted to accept
an appropriation from the govern
ment, should 1t be granted, for a
new high school. The plan at that
time was to transfer the Center
school pupils to the present high
school building.
According to school board mem
bers and many of the townspeople
there Is a feeling that since school
is SO badly needed 1t would prove
less expensive to build one at the
present time than to delay until
prices on material which are
claimed to be already advancing,
reach their peak.
