gal counsel for the water board.

Teachers Elected . . .
Trustees Discuss
Building Program
A proposed building program
to alleviate crowded conditions in
all Bonham schools wis discussed
at length Monday night by trus-
tees of the Bonham school
district.
Meeting with the school board
were Charles Harper and Clar-
ence Martin, architects; Ray Tay-
lor, junior high school principal;
Thad Finley, Bailey Inglish prin-
cipal, and Mrs. J. 0. Tate, di-
rector of curriculum.
Expansion of the facilities at
the junior high school was given
first priority to provide room for
growing enrollment in the fourth,
fifth and sixth grades.
A new building would be pro-
vided for the seventh and eighth
grades and a new high school
would be built on a tract of land
purchased by the school district
west of the golf club. A new
athletic plant also would be lo-
cated at that site.
It was pointed out that Bailey
Inglish cannot be enlarged and
has sufficient classrooms only
for three grades if enrollment
continues to grow.
Supt. M. B. Nelson, Mrs. Tate,
Taylor and Finley will confer
on space needs for the future,
then meet with the architects
to prepare a written report
which will be handed the board

FHA-financed soil and water
loans to associations, probably
made the most impressive
show of the better living being
made possible by FHA-guaran-
teed loans over long periods to
bring payments in reach for av-
erage income families.
The home ownership showing
ranged from the site on which
the Freddy W. Hayes -family is
preparing to build to the How-
ard L. Wright six-room home
into which the family has just
moved just west of the Kueckel-
han corner eight miles north of
Bonham. Also seen was
the remodeled home of the
Charley Hill family in the Mul-
berry community, turning this
progressive Negro farm fam-
ily’s one-time shell of a home in-
to an attractive, comfort-
able place to live.
Arthur Maxwell, Fannin coun-
ty FHA administrator, talked
briefly at each of the 13 stops
made during the two-hour tour,
explaining the program being
carried out by each of the loan
recipients in home ownership,
land ownership, operating
capital and other phases
of farm management.
The tour ended with a look
at pumping facilities of the
