In the decision Rcfcrcc Keogh

Recommendations

wail‘adopted by the Joint School
A similar recommendation on the
Golden Hill site was voted down by
the Common Council at a. recent
meeting. As an alternative to the
Golden Hill site recommendation,
the Joint. committee recommended
the purchase of the property on
Gregory Boulevard. south of the
Fitch school; Favorable action on
this latter recommendation, however,
will mean that an eight or ten-room
Junior High will be constructed in
the Third District and the postpone-
ment of the second District Junior
High for two or three years until
another bond issue for schools an
be secured.
Other Recommmdntions.
Other important recommendations
to the Common Council we're adopted
at. the m;eting. In the first place.
the committee voted unanimously to
recommend the present Center school
site for the Center junior high. The
junior high will be'placed alongside
of the present school.
The committee then unanimously
passed a resolution recommending
the Broad River property offered to
the city by Charles H. Harris, glass
manufacturer. as the site for the
new four-room Broad River school.
This property. ideally located and
consisting of five acres, was altered
to the city by Mr. Harrisnt the price
