College Reinsiates
High School

ALCORN, Miss, July IA. CAN
p = After receiving promises
from Claiborne and Jefferson
counties that they would provide
financial aid, the board of trus-
tees of Alcon college voted to re-
instate the high school here, Pres.
w. H. Pipes announced this week.
The college had been forced to
drop the high school operation be-
cause of financial difficulties. 1t
needed help from Claiborne and
Jefferson counties. Neither of
these counties provides high
schools for Negroes; thus the AL
corn high school served the col
ored students.
The trustees reinstated the high
school con the basis of proposal
submitted by Mr.. Segrest, county
superintendent of Claiborne coun-
ty that he and Supt. Winters of
Jefferson county would reimburse
Alcorn college for elementary pu-
nils S22 IN annually and hioh
school pupils sos annually"
Speaking of the cooperation
from the counties, Pes. Pipes said
"Now that we have this coopera-
ton, the high school department
at Alcorn college should be bet
ter than ever before"
