Carl ha just finished the Bush school addition project. iCarl was .successful bidder Tuesday night for construction of both the Capitola school and similar grade school at Four Cor ners, both to be added to Salem school district 24 under a $1,500,- 000 school expansion program. Although Carl's basic bids were $264,397 for the Capitola school arid $266,397 for the Four Corners school, alternatives as called for inf the bidding were accepted by the school board in order to bring he construction costs down to $206,082 for Capitola and $209,249 for Four Corners. .The alternates call fdr eight In stead of 10 classrooms in each building and elimination of separate, gymnasium in each, as well as deducting .4 of 1 per cent for granting Carl both projects. The schools will be built to a common plan, so designed that additional units like the gymnas iuin or two, four or six class rooms cart be added conveniently ifj needed later. A multi-purpose room will provide space for cafe teria, covered play area and audi torium. . The school bids include tialso about $3,000 each for septic tank installation, as tour Corners is out of the city and the Capitola site, although just within city limits, is still beyond the city sewage system.

All of which brings us up, or down as desire may dictate; to Kalph Watson senate joint, resolution No. 28. You see it is Tom's resolution, born of the innate kindness of his Irish heart and made predict able by his Job as chairman of the senate committee on resolutions.
