Pledges Beginning to Come In Work is about completed on the grading and draining of the Dade County High School Campus, it was reported at a meeting of the Improvement Club held last week. Work on this first part of the improve¬ ments to toe made at the schools has been moving fast in spite of the bad weather. Also reported at this meeting was that a $1700.00 bond is available at the Supt. of School’s office for use on the building of a gym. This is the mony raised previously for a gym. No local money went into the present gym basemet which is reinforc¬ ed with steel. This was built with money received from the insurance company which the old gym burned in 1951. Because not enough money was raised at that time to complete a new gym, this money, which will now have several year’s interest, is still available for a gym. The committees on raising money for these school im¬ provement projects reported they had about $12,000.00 al¬ ready pledged. However they had not been able to contact all the captains for their reports. Is your name on this list?
