Mr. Harris told the meeting of the problems which had been faced by the board and the steps which had led to the de- cision to tear down the old school and put up a new build- ing with added facilities.Grants will total about '75 per cent, he reported, and the board is fighting to have the subsidy raised in connection with the auditorium, which is rated as a classroom for grant purposes. Board member Roy Bennett said construction costs of the new school will be high, as building costs have gone up more in the last year than in the previous five years. He said the reason was the Expo 6 world's fair at Montreal, which has large contractors waiting to grab big jobs. The sooner the school can be built he said, the better, as costs will con- tinue. to rise.
