Considerable discussion ensued re- lative to alterations at the High school which would permit greater physical training for the boys and girls. Detailed estimates showed that such alterations would cost about $10,000 and would necessitate much extra work in the way of installing new lockers, new showers, etc. All of the members favor giving all the physical training possible. The work for making alterations which would enable the school authorities to give better physical training to the boy students would only cost about $1,500 but when the matter had been considered from all angles the committee decided to table it.
