New Vaughan Building Aids LTHS Growth Plans
District 204 boards push for the Leonard H. Vaughan facility across Cossili from the present school to relieve overcrowding at LTHS. The plan includes a 100x136 foot gym with seating for 2,000, band and orchestra rooms, and space for cafeterias and community gatherings. If approved, construction could begin soon for the 1950-51 basketball season and release space for girls’ PE facilities and expanded dining.
