I'ttuc 4 ORANGE BLACK Highlights In New School Everyone seems accustomed to the noise once more—Why does one see so many upturned noses in the vicin- ity of the tar pot? The football team will have a room to itself when the new building is completed. Back of the team room is a room where the boys can store their football and basketball uniforms when not in use.—Coach Gobel will have a private room and shower. The workshop will probably be completed by the time this is pub- lished. Workmen put in the sky- lights last week. How many sports loving students are asking when the gym will be ready? Well, acording to Mr. Sverre, that will be the last part to be com- pleted. The walls in the corridors are cov- ered with glazed tile.—All along the one running north and south are open spaces where lockers will be placed.
