YMCA BOARD SEEKS FIRST LOOK AT SENIOR HIGH PROPERTY

The Corry YMCA urged the School District to grant it first consideration in planning for leasing or sale of the Benley High School property including the Hollyhe building and playground site. Executives Burgess and Ewing asked for priority if the property becomes available after the new Corry Area High School opens nearby. No definite decision was made, but the request for future consideration was noted amid rumors of other bidders. Wayne Township discussed leasing or buying the Senior High building instead of pursuing a joint elementary project, while Elgin and Concord withdrew from the joint plan due to costs. Wayne plans to pursue a separate six room elementary project with state aid, contingent on state approval next week. Further action hinges on a Department of Public Instruction reply.
