Special Session Planned For East End School Project Delays
City council may convene a special session this week to authorize vacating blocks 15 and 16 in the Byers Grove addition for the new East End School House. The school board failed to follow legal procedures, requiring a petition signed by a majority of affected residents before council action. Petition circulation and street committee review are expected before a special meeting to act on the report and petition. The Pantheon theater, managed by Milo H. McMinn, showed no profit. a $25 quarterly license was refunded partially to cover one month. Deputy Marshal Scheer’s eight day vacation saw D Turner cover duties, and a $20 municipal warrant was approved for Turner’s services.
