HEDRICK CALLS
ATTENTION TO
SCHOOL VOTE
Thursday Set for Resubmis
sion of Building Bonds to
Citizens Adoption Held
Vital.
K. 1L Hedrick, city school su
per! ntendeni released a statement
today calling the attention of
voters to the bond election which
is set for Thursday, January 1 ,
at tlie Junior high school from
2:o to ?:Oo p.m.
Mr. Hedrick said. "This $26!..
noii bond issue to take care of the
.school program was passed by "
blf majority on December 1 6.
but due to an error in the notice
of pu bleat ion our attorneys ad
vised that the issue be resubmit
ted to the voters so there couUt
be no possible clouding of the
bond issue which might injure
the sale of bonds. This is being
done next Thursday. .
"The question involved In this
election 1 both an educational
and a business one. In the first j
place, Medford has reached I
point where it must take care or
tlie school program and 1 do not
think anyone acquainted with the
present situation doubts that. Our
population has more th-in dou
bled during the past ten years. It
has increased more than one-third
since 1 1125.
Spare Lacking.
"The old junior high school
will onlv hold 4MI nupils. There
are 770 pupils today who should
be boused I here, but who for lack
of space are fanned out Into the
high school, the armory, and an
old church building which the
district is compelled to rent. We
have two rooms lull of children
in a basement where artificial
light must be iiwd all day.
"This month in our mid-year
promotion we have passing from
the Junior Into the senior high
school about 80 pupils the largest
mid-year class we have ever had.
and practically none will drop
out of the high school at this time.
The clasH which enters in Septem
ber each year is generally about
double that which comes in Janu
ary, so one can imagine the sitnn
lion next year unless we do some
thing before that lime.
Now 111 y Itent.
"There are also some conside
rations on the financial sido which
a i-.. tie fur the wale of these old
buildings and the construction of
n e w o n es. W e are no w p a y I n g
out more than $1000 per year rent
for outside space besides Its up
keep and operation. If tlie old
junior high school and the Wash
inglc.u school are not disposed of
very oon we shall be forced
to expend around $10,000 on each
one for major repairs such as new
roofs some new floors, repainting
and the like. We be 1 ie ve t ha t
because of the prevailing low
building costs it is better to take
care of our building this winter
and spring. We can save on thin
program from 10 per cent to Ki
per cent or nearly $30,000 by
doing It now rather than waiting
until times get back to normal.
Hcsidcs it will givo employment
to a bit of labor when it is needed.
In so far as possible only local
labor and local materials will be
used.
No Deluy Caused.
"We have not allowed the fact
that we nuitft revote the issue to
delay construction a single day.
We shall advertise for construc
tion bids, on both buildings just
as soon as we can get the plans
completed by the architects and
we are hurrying them as much as
possible.
'Although the people have al
ready expressed themselves in this
matter and we know what 'they
want. It nevertheless has to be
voted asaln. And this election,
as it turns out, is the all-important
one. It is quite necessary
that we have out a big vole and.
I trust that no voter will forget
or neglect to come to t he polls
Thursday afternoon, January '
from 2;00 to 7:00 p.m., at I be
Junior high school."
