"Do we know if these are included in the plane?" asked Lavin. "No we don't?" retorted Elliott. "And you are out of order for asking." An audible chuckle passed among the board members, "I take it then we will have to wait until the sketch plans are presented to the board," continued Levis. "The board could then ask to have new sketch plans drawn without the home economics and shop facilities. Is that correct?" "That's the way it appears," answered Elliott. "I've tried everything else," Figures presented at the board meeting showed that the estimated cost of the addition to Seaforth School now is $357,430. Roy B.
