BLACK, Auditor Newberry County Agreement Hoped For School In Lower County At a meeting of the Newberry County Board of Education, held last Friday night, members of the Board took action toward a con- tract for the conatructlon of a new elementary school at Silver- street. Bids were opened last Wed nesday but the contract was not awarded at that time since all bids were in excjo$|fof the allot ment made by tire ^Finance Com mission for the school and only two members of the Board were present at the opening. The con tract, totaling $99,900 went to W. E. Baker and Sons of Whitmire and construction will begin im mediately. It Is hoped by school officials that the building will be ready for occupancy next Septem ber first. In last week’s issue of the Sun, the contract price shown on the Baker bid was in excess of $102,- 000. The difference between the two bids had to do with the use of certain materials in the build ing, one price being baaed on the use of concrete, the other on use of steel in the construction. The steel bid was low. Further business discussed by the Board concerned the construc tion of the much-discused high school for the Prosperity - Little Mountain-Pomaria areas. It is ex pected that a "report of agree ment" will be submitted for ap proval of the Board at its regular meeting on Tuesday, February 28. The matter has been pending for three years due to the fact that members of the Prosperity advis ory hoard would not agree to a site three miles from Prosperity, which was agreed to by advisory boards from Pomaria and Little Mountain, or on any other site except in the town of Prosperity.
