The School Board was to open bids at noon on construction of the new James E Roberts School for Crippled Children, estimated cast of which is $218,000.

The two-story structure is to be 224 feet long and 64 feet wide and built in a 1,-shape to form a unit to which additional units may be added. It will have a large basement playroom and a sundeck above the second floor.

Thf views of Mis* Rav. seekinr life, rontrast so harplv with those of Miss Becker, asking death, that the Inited Pres* obtained the following interview with her.F BY JOSEPH F. HEARST 'Copyright. 1935. bv United Pressl TARENNER HEIGHTS, Kan., Nov. 19.—Miss Pauline Ray celebrated her twenty-third birthday today, as happy as any young lady with numerous presents, scores of visitors and hundreds of letters and cards. In fact, she couldn't have been much happier if able to walk, which she isn’t. Miss Ray hasn’t walked since Sept. 23, 1932, when sha was in an automobile accident. She can’t move her body or touch her black bobbed hair with her hands. She can move her head from side to side, though. And she can smile. Miss Ray was sorry that Miss Becker of Buffalo, N. Y„ wanted to be killed because the doctors said she would never be well again. ana 1 COULDN'T ever ask any one to take my life, no matter w'hat the future was,” Miss Ray said. ‘ I don't feel we have the right to decide those matters. It is for God, I think. To our minds it may seem better to die, but we can’t know about those things. “Os course, I don't want to criticise Miss Becker. Perhaps she doesn't have a family to care for her as I do. or friends to visit her. Those things mean so much when you are dependent upon others. “Then, too, I firmly believe some day I’ll walk again, or at least use my hands and be useful,” Miss Ray continued. ‘‘The doctors told me at first I couldn't live. They say now I will never be any better, but maybe they will be wrong again. Maybe they will discover anew cure. God could cure me, you know', or He could permit the doctors to discover something that w'ould cure me.” a a a MISS RAY said she didn’t suffer much pain. “I have some aches and pains," she laughed, “but so does every one. and I’m not really sick. The days pass, rapidly, too. for I read most of the time that I don’t have visitors. I like to read, so I'm fortunate that w'ay.” That Miss Ray may read, magazines are placed on a stand that fits to her reclining wheel chaii. She can't move her fingers to turn the pages, but is able, after long practice, to work her hand under the page and turn it by flipping it quickly. “It takes time but I have plenty of that,” she smiled. “And it is pleasant to be able to do even that little for myself.” SHOOT AT FUGITIVE Police Confiscate Car After Firing Four Shots in Chase. Police fired four shots at a fugitive who “looked suspicious” last night at 1415 N. Meridian-st, but he stopped his automobile and escaped from them. They confiscated the car, but found nothing in it to justify their suspicion.
