BROOKINGS-HARBOF Thursday, December 8, 1955 To The Editor . . \ As I haven’t a?en any letters or heard any unfavorable com ment on the pirn of moving the Curry County Courthouse into the outgrown, comparatively new. Gold Beach grade school building, it looks like the deal is not unpopular. I believe there are in the building eleven t i l ) rooms, ap proximately 24 x 40 feet, one is about 24 x 50, and an auditorium 90 x 24, toilet area about 24 x 24 adequate halls, and a basement about 30 x 50 feet. Besides, the property fronts about 350 feet on Highway 101, is deep enough to have room for necessary vault space, all fore seeable parking, and probably a jail.

Going along with this idea, we sure wouldn’t want to be stuck with paying off the indebtedness of a big courthouse or paying too much to support it any more than the Gold Beach taxpayers would (or could) stand for supporting two sep arate grade schools plus paying their share on a new courthouse.
