TOLLESON Special to the HTJ Westfield Schools placed third place in the regional one-act play competition with their performance of "David and Lisa" by James Reach. "David and Lisa" follows two mentally disturbed adolescents during the course of one term at Berkeley School where they come under the sympathetic and understanding guidance of psychiatrist Alice Swinford and her staff. The characters of "David and Lisa" all have some type of Update on MGTI given at legislative appreciation brunch By BRIGETTE LOUDERMILK News Editor Although it may not be as flashy as the first draft, construction at the new Highway 96 site for the technical school should begin soon according to MGTI President Billy G. Edenfield. At a Legislative Appreciation Brunch held Wednesday, Dec. 7, Edenfield stated that two companies were being considered for construction of the facility. The first set of bids received for the project, for which the school has a $12.5 million budget, were all too high, according to Edenfield, who continued by saying, "The lowest bid was 19 percent over our budget." After removing some of the "frills" from the original design, bids were let once again, with Williams and Associaties of Macon submitting the low bid, $11,849,000. If the company accepts the project, the facility will have a May 1996 completion date. "That will give us time to move in over the summer and open Fall 1996 classes at the new school," Edenfield said. An Augusta firm will be the second choice. Their bid was for $12,450,000 and set a completion date for October 1996.
