 port Project

The Juneau City Council voted last night to accept the bid oi Triplette and Dalziel, of Juneau, to construct a new administration building at the Juneau airport. The original bid. of Sl44, ,5530o- was pared by s10.300 with the use of alternate specifications in some cases.
 By changing the type of heating system, s3S8500 was cut from the total amount and another $l,20o was saved by using wooden doors instead of aluminium as originally specified.
 The cuts bring the total cost oi the building down to within S53 oi the amount specified for the pro- ject. The total figure includes 8 fee of s5 800 to architects Foss anc Malcolm.
 Money for the project will come from the sale of s500o0 in revenue tonos by the City and an appropria- ton of s90OOO from the Territorial Board of Road Commissioners.

hobbies which they might possess,
Several students have an interest
in art, One is Willie Mae Thomas,
a 18th grade student who has done
some very outstanding artistic |
work in the school In l945 she I,
sent some of her work to New
York This brought return letter
inviting her to study in that field |

drawing fashions, making posters |
and sketching various people
Willie Mae Thomas has won sew
eral prizes for her various contri-
buttons. She is one of the many |
talented students of Dunbar.
Dunbar Football
The Football season at Dunbar
has been tremendous success.
The Bearcats lost several games
but have won many: Last Friday
night was an example of success.
The mighty Bearcats smothered
Corbin High $40 The game was
good, but actions of spectators
could have been improved in that
respect for human personality and
life should be present whether
the school team is the victim of
injured PLAYERS or the other team
is the victim.
The Pep Squad is an important
part of the Football team This
year under the direction of Miss
A. v. Johnson and Miss Estelle
the cheer leaders are making a
tremendous contribution. The
cheer leaders are Bernard Martin,
Hazel Boyd, Helen Carrigan, Jean
