The office space was recently re modeled as well as the front of the building. there are accommodations for 10 youths and living quarters for the supervisors cf the hall. There are a total of 12 rooms and a large activity room. Barr pointed out in dedicating the building that the govern ment now has the responsi bility of caring for abandoned or neglected children. The hall is needed to give decent at mosphere where the officials can work with the children. Hall supervisors Mr. and Mrs. Ray McCollom, who have previously worked in hos pitals and with children in a state hospital, will prepare food in the kitchen for the youngsters. Facilities for youngsters include two dor mitories with separate shower facilities, a nursery for the young and a large recreation room. The name Graves hall was suggested by Supervisor Don Avery in memory of Siskiyou county's first probation offi cer, Charles S. Graves. A large green plaque with brass lettering will be placed on the building as a tribute to Graves. Further Expansion Brewer talked of the con struction of the hall, and said it is constructed-so that fur ther expansion to the present facilities could be added at an economical cost. Other dormi tories could be added without havingto alter the showers or plumbing. Brewer also said he hoped to have four cells or detention units built onto the building in the future, as this building does not have facilities for youths needing detention. Efforts have beenomade for the past 10 years to have a hall constructed, but plans were rejected. The childien who have come to the pro bation office in the past have been sent to foster homes on a temporary basis. N.
