C, April, 1925 WEL BOLD ELECTION IN MAY TO VOTE BONDS FOR NEW OIGfl SCHOOL BUILDING CITIZENS WILL VOTE ON $750,000 BOND ISSUE In May a» election wall be held fn the city of High Pcint for the purpese of voting bonds for the erection of a new high schocJ, among other, things. The outcome of this election v.all be, or should be, •f intense interest to every alumni. If the electicn k; canled, three quarters of a million dollars in bonds will be issued and immediate steps will be taken to constrccton of the finest and most up-to-date institutions in -the state. The entire $750,000 will not be required for the high school. Part of the money is to b» used for the general ex- pansin of elementary sch'^ls _ _ _ While the high sehael building is the outstanding need of the city educationally, other High Point schoels are proving inadequate for the demands made upon them A number of elementary buildings are crowded to overflowing, and it is believed that double shifts wiH be necessrry in partically all of them in another year or two, unless they are amplified. A GREAT FUTURE IS PREDICTED FDR HIGH POITA^’S ONE-YEAR OLD COLLEGE PROGRAMME Th# High Point college opened its fir.=t time last fall with the em-ollment of ?bout 125 students. This is admitted a good start. The question now is how to make the eollege grtw. Every alumni of the nigh school should be In- tei’ested in this question, because thee college is a home institution and something that the citizens have been hoping for a long time. People are dubious about sending their boys and girls to schools which have not acquired a reputation. The High Point college ha.s been tried now and not found wanting. It ranks'as an A-grsde institution. In fact, one or tw» High Point boys who .started the term in other schools, came to the local college Christmas, after they had seen that it reaHy was holding up t» a high standard.
