May Build New Catholic School
Plans for financing a new parochial school for Sacred Heart parish are under review by Rev. D. Lenihan, pastor. Property was bought earlier but construction was delayed due to finances. Archbishop Keane of Dubuque visits Waterloo to discuss the project with Father Lenihan as church members submit views. If support grows, construction may start soon. Sacred Heart School is the city’s youngest parochial school, with temporary quarters now inadequate.
