 BE DISCUSSED
Special Meeting on TO- night; EIks Bazaar
 <. Opens Friday

n tANGG ubvSkidHthSC ln SARCSbGU Ab the special city meeting to be held at the Torrington High school audi toriufn this evening at 7:30 o'clock to act on authorizing the construc- ton of a new school building on the city-owned Fowler lot on Oak ave. nue. The call was Issued by Mayor Ernest E. Novey.
 It has been reported that the building of the proposed school Is unnecessary in view of the fact that e large number of rooms in the present buildings are vacant, The facts are that there are ii2 rooms in the eight centrally located school buildings used for grades below the high school, and of this ii2 rooms only i3 rooms are vacant little over ten per cent.
 Although the city has vacant roomb ample to take care of twice the total enrolment of children in the southereastern section, 1t would be impossible to spread all these chil- dren into the vacant rooms through out the city
 If 1t is decided tonight to build c new school for the southeast secs ton it will not have more than eight school rooms. That would leave one room for future increase In enroll- ment. Unofficial figures of the cost Of building on the city-owned prop erty come to approximately Si60,000.
