Further interviews will then be held for final selections. Dr. Abel Ross, committee member, said future school planning and curriculum should be discussed with School Supt. William R. Barry so the school constructed will include facilities for any new courses or classrooms in the years ahead.
Dr. Ross also stressed economy and vas backed up on this by Eugene McCarthy, a member of the building committee and also a School Board member. McCarthy noted that "the sav. ing of the taxpayer's dollar was most important," and added that he was against "a country club school" which would include frills or construction ideas that may look beautiful but would add greatly to heating or maintenance.

should be a compact, two story building rather than a rambling, one story school which is becoming the trend.
