School Report
(Continued from Page 1)
FOR WHITE SCHOOLS
1. A study of existing facilities
and projected enrollment indicates
I to the committee the 6-3-3 or 7-2-3
plan of school organization will
best meet the needs of the Hous- '
ton County White schools.
2. It is recommended that the
following white school plant fa
cilities be constructed.
Perry Attendance Area
a. A gymnatorium at Perry High
School.
b. A 360 capacity elementary
school on the south side of Perry.
Warner Robins Attendance Area
a. 10 additional classroom units
and additional dressing rooms to
the gymnasium at Warner Robins.
b. 12 additional elementary
classrooms at the new school in
the Miller Hills sub-division.
c. A 750 capacity auditorium at
Warner Robins High School.
d. A gymnasium at the present
Warner Robins Junior High School
e. A junior high school of 300 to
600 capacity with gymnasium in
Warner Robins.
3. The committee studied the
census reports of children in the
j Bonaire area, visited the area, and
j measured the distance involved of
children attending the school now ■
( in operation.
The committee is of the opinion
that there are now not enough
children of elementary school age
in the area which should constitute ]
a Bonaire school district to justify
the establishment of an elementary
school in that area.
However, the committee realized
the rapidity with which that situ
ation could change, and recom
| mends to the County Board, that
when the County Board determ-
I ines there is a minimum of 225
elementary school children, of
whom 75 per cent live within dis
tance (IV£ miles by State regula
tion) of a site in that area, that an
elementary school be constructed
! in the Bonaire district.
FINANCING NEEDED
BUILDINGS
To meet the building needs
[ pointed out in the report will, of
, course cost money.
At present the County Board of
. Education has two definite sources
of funds for school building con
. struetion, namely Federal funds
• I under P. L. 815 and school con-
I struetion bonds which may be
voted by the citizens of the county.
Another possibility is the exten
sion of the State School Building
Authority, which will require fur
ther legislation by the State Gen
eral Assembly.
In terms of dollars, Federal
funds under P. L. 815, in the sum
of approximately $200,000 is ex
pected to be alloted to Houston
County. On the basis of 1956 tax
evaluations, the County Board of

$1,000,000 potential revenue for

NEW BYRON BASE
FORMALLY OPENS
“A part of the Navy” was for
mally delivered to Byron, Ga.,
Monday, when the new Navy
Forms and Publications Supply
Office was dedicated.
“To the people of Georgia, to
the members of this community—
and to the men and women of this
new control center, I give you this
day a part of the Navy,” Rear Ad- ,
miral Thomas L. Becknell said in
his dedicatory address.
Mayor Henry Williams of Byron ,
welcomed the Navy to Byron and ,
said he hopes that the Navy would (
always consider its decision to put ;
the supply center in Byron as a
wise one. (
It was a $445,000 building which ,
was dedicated Monday. Although j
the Navy first announced a $9,- ■
000,000 supply depot, officials ,
said this week that no more con- j
struction is planned “in the fore- ■
seeable future.”
About 200 civic leaders in Mid
idle Georgia participated in the
dedication ceremonies Monday.
It is situated on a 1,600 acre
site of land procured by the Navy
Department for possible future use
as a major supply depot. The of
fice building is on a sacre site;
the balance of the land is sub
leased.
The building, costing approxi
mately $445,000, is the only con
struction currently contemplated.
It was designed by the James C.
Wise Associates of Augusta, Geor
gia and constructed by the Clar
ence Mobley Contracting Company
of Atlanta.
The Forms and Publications
Supply Office, activated as such on
January 1, is one of the 15 Navy
supply demand control points. It is
responsible for the inventory con
trol of approximately 21,000 dif
ferent printed forms and publi
cations used throughout the Navy.
The office previously functioned
as a Division of the Bureau of
Supplies and Accounts, Navy De
partment, in Washington, D. C.
The commanding officer, Com
mander Henry P. Adams, SC, U. S.
Navy, with four other supply corps
officers and approximately 36 ci
vilian employees moved to their
new location on March 18. Prior
to the move, however, the recruit
ment of approximately 75 addition
al employees was undertaken by
an advance group from the office,
utilizing the facilities of the Na
val Ordinance Plant, Macon.
The total complement of the of
fice will be seven officers, one
enlisted man and 109 civilian em
ployees. This new Department of
Defense installation in the South
land will annually add over a half
million dollars to the local econo
my, represented by salaries and
local procurements of supplies and
services.

Goal of 50 Pieces
J. T. Moss is serving as presi
dent of the Band Boosters Club
this year and is continuing the
fine work started by Mrs. Galle
more. It was his influence that
got free transportation for the
band this year. He says they have
set a goal of 50 band members by
the opening of the football season
next fall. Os course that will re
quire additional uniforms and in
struments. He announces that the
club will sponsor a circus in Per
ry on April 5.
I asked Mr. Moss for a comment
on the contribution our gracious,
smiling Mrs. Gallemore has made
to the Perry band. His reply was,
“The club should be called ‘The
Gallemore Band Boosters Club’ or
the band itself should be named
‘the Perry High Gallemore
Band’
Bottler Building
Sun-y South Bottling Company,
Inc., broke ground April 3 for its

| Ninth Grade Wins
Invitation Tourney
Playing before what Wa A
bly the largest crowd ever to° SSl '
junior high basketball, th e p iee
ninth grade brought the aecond
nual Perry Invitational Basketb "’
Tournament to a close with a
prising 66 to 21 win over the niS
grade from Roberta. th
In the efatured final game of the
eighth grade bracket, Abbevin
pulled a mild upset as they ousted
a big Roberta Junior High ton!
33 to 25. ' m >
In the Perry-Roberta affair
every man on the Perry bench saw
action and each of them scored at
least two field goals. Pierce sta
pies led the scoring spree as he
threw in a total of 20 points. Ji m .
my Smallwood, playing perhaps
his finest game, added twelve more
to the scoring.
I The Perry freshmen, coached by
student Bobby Brock, gave the
large group of assembled basket
ball fans a look at the power which
will be forthcoming in the future
high school teams. Their attack
was so overpowering that f our
members of the team were selected
to the All-Tournament team.
Pierce Staples, Wilson Martin, Ji m !
my Smallwood and Jerry Willson
were awarded All-Tournament
awards following the final game.
Lee Martin, a seventh grader
, from the Perry Junior High, was
the only Perry boy selected f or
All-Tournament honors in the
eighth grade brackets.
The “Junior Panthers” from Per
ry, who have not won a tourna
ment since winning the West
Crisp Invitational three years ago,
will try to end their losing skein
as they travel to Unadilla tonight
to play in the Jaycee sponsored
junior high tournament.
Perry will play the winner of
Wednesday night’s Byron-Haw
kinsville game. Game time is
scheduled for 6;30. If this game is
won, they will enter the finals
Friday night at 8:30.

ly recognized as a legitimate in
