INCREASE H SHOniDCE COST LOOMS Board Considers $50,000 Covering for Court of Mew School. me* DRAWINGS APPROVED Many Proposals for Alterations Made. Possibility of Indianapolis taxpayers saving a large amount of money on the new 2,500-capacity Shortridge High School building, as compared to the structure by the formy school board, began to fhde at the board meeting Tuesday night. It was agreed about a month ago that the new building at Thir-ty-Fourth and Meridian Sts. was to cost $1,000,000, but the board already has begun to consider an additional $50,000 expenditure to protect athletes and those who take military training from the weather. It is proposed to cover over part of the new school’s court area to be used for athletic and drilling purposes. Considering the $42,000 in architect's fees thrown away on the old plans, the possible $50,000 covering and the expense of putting in a di-rect-indirect heating and ventilating system, it was revealed that the building cost will run close to the* $1,200,000 proposed by the former board. Alterations Asked The preliminary plans were approved Tuesday night, but many proposals for alterations were made by Superintendent E. U. Graff. The question of covering the court was left undecided until the advisory committee, composed of Walter G. Ginery of Shortridge, Charles W. Kern, buildings and grounds* committee chairman, and Jacob Hilkene, buildings and grounds superintendent, confers further. The plans were approved almost solely on recommendations of Gingery. Minority Member Fred Bates Johnson openly announced he was “against D-I heating and ventilating in the new Shortridge High School.” Graff objected to the 1,500 seating capacity’ of the proposed Caleb Mills Hall. He said it was not large enough for teachers’ meetings. Kern said meetings might be held in the gymnasium, which has a capacity of 2,500 to 3,000. The hall (Turn to Page 11)
