Members of the school board stated!

that no building will be erected n the site to be vacated. At least no plans have been made at this time pointing toward another building. The dd building has not been used since the new high school structure was put in use, the grammar grades having been nmved te the building at the corner of William st. and Colfax av. The high school building is on the site ef the old seminary, which in 1 S 5 was purchased by the town beard of trusters from the county otricials. .incc that time it has been used for various purposes and is the nucleus from which jrrew South Hend's present modern school system. Many of South Bend's citizens remember having spent their school days In the building which will now be utilized in providing work for those suffering from poverty in the city. Xo otticial action in the trouble which is alleged to have occurred between Prof. F. L. Sims and a high school student was taken by the school board at the meeting last night. Although the subject was informally discus.-ed. the board did not take any oflicial course because of the fact that none of the principals of the affair were present.
