P. T. A. Sparks Window Plan Something should be done to beau- tify the auditorium and rid the school of those ugly, painted windows, rea- soned Mrs. Sarah Sweat. And thus, more than fifteen years ago, a movement was begun to install new windows here in the H.H.S. auditorium. Mrs. Sweat and several annual staffs raised money for this project, but one thing after another set them back. Then, after the Second World War, the community decided to install a memorial clock and chimes in memory of the Hillsborough High School graduates who had given their lives during the war. The money which had been raised for stained glass win- dows was donated to the memorial fund, halting for a time any action concerning the windows. Last year the Hillsborough Parent- Teacher Association took up where Mrs. Sweat had left off. The members ar- ranged for the designing of two win- dows with the understanding that the remaining ones would be given by school clubs or other organizations. Mr. Myers, a former Hillsborough graduate, promised to donate his labor to the movement. At present there are four figures in glass-Walt Whitman, Euclid, Henry Ford, and Albert Einstein. The P.T.A. has appropriated the monev for a third window, picturing in slightly abstract form the contributions of and develop- ments in the sea and the air. Also, sever- al clubs plan to work together to in- stall a window bearing the insignia of all the organizations here at Hillsbor- ough. While the project may take years to complete, the consensus of opinion is that eventually all the windows will be installed giving Hillsborough the most beautiful auditorium in the South. ABOVE: Mrs. Cawthon, president of the P.T. A., shows a sketch of the proposed art-glass windows to Mrs. Sweat, who was one of the first to advocate installing them. LEFT: From bits of colored glass, Mr. joseph Myers created the arresting beauty of an art- glass window.
