Old St. Mary's School Building To Disappear The St. Mary's school build ing's 44-year service as a high school and convent is soon to end. Bulding inspector's office records show that a permit to demolish the old school has been taken by Sacred Heart church. In 1908 the academy, as it was known until recently, was moved to the then-new building at 321 West 11th street, according to the Very Rev. John M. Berger. Previously St. Mary's academy had been in Jacksonville, where it was established in 1865. It was moved when Medford became more heavily populated than Jacksonville. Original Enrollment 116 The school's original enroll ment at the 11th street site was 116, with 23 boarders and 93 day students, Father Berger said. The registration this year was over 400. The old biulding is giving way to a new, larger school being built on the same property. Fath er Berger said' he expected the new building to be completed and ready for operation by fall. The new building has been built virtually around the older building. The L-shaped building has ben constructed along Ivy and 11th streets between the old school and the sidewalks. More Floor Space Although the old school had one more floor than the new one, it had hardly half the floor space. The building under con struction will have nearly an acre of floor space 43,000 square feet. The building soon to to be demolished had only 25,000 square feet. Father Berger said demolition Obituary SUSAN CANTRALL Susan Cantrall, three-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harlan Cantrall, died at the family home near Ruch Thursday.

Tax Friday, July 4, 1952 Around Hollywood Hollywood U.R) "The Craziest House in America" is a castle made out of movie sets with under ground tun nels and a fireplace und er the bed. This home is occupied by electronics en gineer Mac Brainard. It was built in the racy 20's Aline Mosby by screenwrit er Jack McDermott. He penned Harold Lloyd and Colleen Moore movies by day and was one of the first of the high-liv ing- Hollywood characters by night. McDermott set up' a big piano box as a house in the Holly wood hills in 1921. One day he spied an old set of an oriental temple at hre studio, and reflect ed on what a fine room it would make. He hauled the set by bur ro to his hillside home. From then on his architectural prob lem was solved. McDermott borrowed another movie set that had been a Han sel and Gretel witch's hut. The dining room, of his home is the captain's cabin of a Spanish galleon on which Doug Fair banks leaped about in "The Black Pirate." Another room boasts minarets from "The Thief of Bagdad;" a gilt dome is from a movie about Kubla Kahn. Underneath "The House That Jack Built," is a labyrinth of tunnels. One tunnel staircase spirals up to a mirrored bed room.with a fireplace under the bed. Another winds up next to the living room fireplace. Leg end has it that McDermott would beat on a drum while shapely girls in harem outfits drifted out of the trapdoor at parties attended by John Barry more and other Hollywood char- M'Arfhur Threatened With Act Violation Washington U.R) Attorney Harrison Mann has threatened to charge Gen.

The writer built patios, foun tains, rooms and a huge swim ming pool of hand-painted tile without apy financial distress. He wrote French and Italian tile dealers that he was a dealer himself, and please send him free samples. He got $7,000 worth that way. The house has four antique cannon out front and an ear splitting siren in the bathroom. By the pool is a tile monument, topped by a throne. Once Mc Dermott furnished female guests with swim suits that dissolved i in water. His favorite gag was taking friends up the mountain road in his model T Ford. If a ner vous passenger complained, the writer would hand him the de tachable steering wheel and con tinue driving with unseen foot controls. -'McDermott took a fatal ov erdose of sleeping pills six years ago. A year later a crank set fire to part of the flimsy house, and Brainard bought what was left. Controls Removed on Specialty Cheeses Washington (U.R) Agricul ture Secretary Charles F. Bran nan has removed import controls on roquefort and about 100 spe cialty foreign cheeses. But he imposed new mans on imports of malted milk com pounds and substitutes for milk and cream.
