Local schools reopened Monday
morning bringing a twelve-day
Christmas recess to a close for over
490 high and grade pupils. While
the return to school is marked by
a new calendar year, seven days OF
study remain before students begin
a new semester. First semester
examinations covering a three day
period will begin next Wednesday.
Returning students may or may
not be aware of numerous additions
and improvements to equipment and
buildings born of the vacation period.
Six modern fuorescent lamps have
been installed under the direction Of
Principal Gerhard Buhler in Room
308 on the top floor of the older part
of the high school building. The
room is used by Miss Keel for
English and Latin classes and has
long needed improved lighting.
Wade Bechtel, engineer, announced
acquisition Of stoker for the No. 2
boiler put into operation during the
holidays. The new stoker, an Iron
Fireman of the underfed screw type,
was installed about a month ago and
its operation will greatly improve
heating facilities. Prior to purchase
of the stoker, this particular boiler
of 70 horsepower had been virtually
idle for the past eight years used
chiefly as an emergency unit.
This demanded full capacity
operation of the smaller 60 horse
power boiler at all times. Installa-
ton of the new stoker has permitted
synchronization of the boilers where
by adequate output may be obtained
with only 2/3 capacity of either
boiler. The low heat requirements
of the vacation period permitted con-
siderable repair work on both boilers
including refining of fire boxes,
cleaning and valve-packing.
A South Bend, 8 inch, bench type,
metal lathe was delivered to the
industrial arts department last week
bringing to three the number of
metal lathes available for student
use. In addition, through the War
Assets Administration at Dayton, the
department will soon receive a mill
ing machine, squaring shears, grind
er, surface plate, planishing machine
and open end shears. The WAA at
Toledo has already delivered a.vertic-
al belt grinder to the shop. Addition
of these units will mean a complete
ly equipped machine shop and will
aid greatly the expansion of classes
in metal working anticipated by
Dwight Spayth, instructor.
Stage scenery composed of six
flats was constructed for the auditor.
ium stage by VIM. Burbick, instructor
of speech. Stage scenery had faller
into poor repair during the wa
years due to material shortages
Construction and repairs are under
way in anticipation of sprint
dramatic productions.
