Weston—The district school board
has given notice of a special meeting
May 31 to vote on the proposition of
establishing a high school. This ac
tion is taken in view of the state nor
mal board’s refusal to permit the use
of the state’s property at Weston for a
normal school supported with private
funds.
The Eastern Oregon state normal
school will therefore cease to be, with
the commencement exercises May 23-
25, after being conducted more than 20
years as a state institution. The state
board will be petitioned for the use of
the state’s plant for public and high
school purposes, the district agreeing
to take care of the property for which
no provision was made by the legisl
ature.
In view of the fact that the com-
munity gave all the ground and one of
the buildings to the state, it is thought
that the request will be granted.
