New Superintendent Named for Missouri School for the Blind
Arrangements to publicize the Missouri School for the Blind are set. A gift of 25 new radio sets is offered by a sister of a former Sikeston woman, with further charitable items pledged. The Board of Managers and editors support the new superintendent in ongoing efforts. The piece recounts the school’s early history from 1851 under Ed Whelan, its move to Magnolia Avenue in 1906, and notes on blindness causes and pupil demographics in Missouri.
