Students allowed
to sell building
Among several recommenda-
tions put before Huron County
Board of Education members
and passed last Monday evening
by the advisory vocational com-
mittee was a suggestion from G.
Ring, the industrial arts teacher
at Seaforth District High School,
that his senior class be allowed to
construct a small building under
contract. The issuer of the con-
tract was to supply the materials.
'It was explained that students
felt some disappointment when
they built a structure as part of
their class work and upon com-
pletion saw it torn apart again.
Board members agreed that if
a party could be foundinterested
in taking advantage of the idea it
met with their approval and
of Bluevale and Brian of Blue- , seemed like an excellent way to
, give the students practical ex -
vale. They have 11 grandchildien. perience.
