School notes on orchestra growth and crowded classes
The article reports on a growing high school with an organized orchestra of seven pieces and a football team making progress. Enrollment stands at 163, construction on the McKinley Building casings proceeds, and crushed granite work on the track będzie ready soon. The new walk is delayed but likely finished within the week. The seventh grade moves to the new German school building near Lincoln, with Latin being the largest department in proportion to the school size. Classes are crowded, prompting geometry to be split into three divisions and the eighth grade to be divided, with Miss Hawkins teaching part of the former seventh grade room.
