CLEARING WORK ON PLAZA AREA TO BEGIN OCT. 1 Contract for Razing of Blind School to Be Let Soon. Clearing of the two-block section from St. Clair to North streets will be begun by Indiana World war memorial trustees about Oct. 1, according to present indications. The Indiana blind school expects to be in its new quarters at Seventyflist and College this fall and will endeavor to vacate the downtown property by Oct. 1, William L. Elder, Seventh district trustee; Frank H. Henley, memorial board secretary, and George S. Wilson, blind school superintendent, conferred this week on plans for the memorial board to take over the property. The memorial board expects to let a contract for razing the blind institute and clearing the property as quickly as the institution gives possession It is estimated that the clearing of the tract will be cc pleted within thirty days. Gras* Mall Flamed Development of a grass mall in the blind school property, with a sunken garden and cenotaph in the center, is provided in the plans fer the plaza. The sunken gardens will be approached from St. Clair street, with a gradual rise in the grade toward the main piaza building. The cenotaph will be the monument to the World war dead, comprising the memorial spot where wreaths are placed, according to Henley. When North street was resurfaced, the grade was and ppea to provide a clear view of the gardens and cenotaph f'nm the main building steps. Ultimately, there will be a companion building to the American Legion building in the northeast corner, but definite plans for the structuie's use are not decided. Finish Exterior First Development of the exterior will be completed before work is started on finishing the interior of the structures on the theory that thousands will view the outside to the hundreds who will inspect the interior. Henley believes that the entire project will be completed in 1934. Already $2,225,000 of the $4,000,000 appropriation has been spent on the development. Some of the tax money has been coming in slowly, making it necessary - to cut the original budget in places where it can be done without harm. Comfort stations and tool sheds,
