Walk Constructed Between Buildings RICHMOND North Cache classes have started to construct a sidewalk between the main building and the shop building. New rock has been acquired, and it is being tested, because the last rock was unstable and broke up. It is being raised up thirteen inches. The walk is six inches high, six feet wide, and seventy feet long, with about two hundred twenty-fiv- e cubic feet of cement. This will enable students going from one building to another to keep out of mud and gravel. F. D. Thatcher, head supervisor, states it wiil be completed by October 9, 1931. shop B |
