John Cox. The high school building here was completed in the fall of 1954. Even next year. Cox told school directors this week, a increase of 150 students will: crowd a few classes.

The third suggestion was to enlarge facilities at the present high school plant. Cox declared that any of the suggested plans could be accom plished without a bond issue or other tax increases, "providing long range building program is adopted and financing is handled carefully," - Meanwhile, dozens of other persons in Dallas have been re sponding with their outgrown and discarded toys. Three organiza tions will bring articles to their meetings to turn over to the i cheer distribution. They are the 'Dallas Chamber of Commerce, j Business and Professional Wo i men's club and Rotary Club. Through this warm-hearted re sponse, what appeared to be the poorest collection of toys a few days ago now appears to be the best in years. With food baskets and other articles the Christmas Cheer com mittee will take the toys to homes of needy in Polk county on the day before Christmas.
