Fuel tests and school finance plans approved by board
The Board of Education approved tests to find coal substitutes for city schools and instructed Architect F A Cooper to prepare Sheridan school additions. They also reviewed a one year oil burner test and a floor contract not exceeding 2000 dollars. The board heard thrifty school banking proposals from three groups and considered universal, open, or district systems amid concerns over lost instructional time.
