ORANGE DELEGATION
THE LARGEST.
Again it was up to Orange to ex-
c*l, this time In sending the largest
delegation of musicians, etc., to Min-
eral Wells today to attend the Texas
State Music Educators association
annual clinic. This group traveling
In a chartered bus wilt be given rare
opportunities that will result In a
substantial addition to their store
of knowledge and needed experience.
Without a doubt, a part or all mem-
bers of the Bengal Guards and but-
cher Stark boys band members will
make special showings on this oc-
casion.
THE DI8COVERY OIL, WELL.
This week's activities In oil land
)| leasing near the scene of Orange
county's main oil field nerves as a
gentle reminder of pioneer days In
wril development. in. the .county,. On
the- last tract or land just leased,
the discovery well of the Orange ter-
ritory was brought In by accident,
apparently, on August IS, 1913. The
circumstance also reminds thoee In-
terested that time has developed
ways and means of getting oil that
were not as much as thought of when
this type of development was started
In Orange county more than 40'yenrs
ago.
BUILDING FOR NEW TORK.
The task of constructing modern
type all-steel ferryboats for use In
the metropolis of New York with
It's multiplied millions and thousands
of Industries, has devolved upon an
Orange ship yard that has for the
past several weeks been busy con-
• structlng. launching and finishing
vessels for New York concerns as
Well ss South American countries.
The new steel plant of the Consoli-
dated Steel corporation of Texas,
. will no doubt be building for the
” various oil refineries nnd other large
Industries at Orange In the Imme-
diate future.

Urgent need for relieving the
greatly overcrowded conditions In
Orange High School were stressed In
a report of j. Fred Horn, school plant
engineer of the State Department ot-
Bducatbui, received today by local
school officials.
Horn visited Orange In December
to make a complete survey of build-
ing facilities in the schools here.
His report is a follow-up of his visit.
Characterizing the present facili-
ties at thn high school os “ranging
from Inadequate to extremely poor,”
Horn recommended Immediate action
by the local boayd to correct the sit-
uation before the education and
health of the boys and girls of Or-
ange could become seriously jeopar-
dised.
“I know of nothing any where In
the State more Inadequate than the
so-called facilities In the annex,”
Horn wrote The annex Is the frame
building, remodeled from the former
teoehernge, which houses the com-
mercial department, the shops, and
the vocational agriculture depart-
ment
Specifically, Horn recommended ad-
ditional classrooms, additional lock-
er space, reorganisation of the li-
brary, study hall, homemaking snlte,
science laboratories. commercial
suite, and shops, addition of a gym-
nasium to take care of a badly need-
ed health education program, and a
complete remodeling of the auditor-
E
for a junior high school and recom-
mended that steps be taken to In-
crease the present chmpus to at
least twice the space It now has.
Horn pointed ont that all of hts
recommendations were being made
from the standpoint of giving the Or-
ange school children standard school
plant facilities. This report he said
would be followed later by a more
detailed one based on the engineer-
ing, data which he accumulated while
here.
Local school officials indicated that
the report would be given serious
consideration at the regular meeting
of the school board In February.

FARM LEADERS
UNTO SENATE
FOR MORE CASH
WASHINGTON, Jan. 31. (AP)—-
Dismayed by demands for heavy cuts
In agricultural expenditures, con-
gresslonsl farm leaders today has-
tily switched their principal fight
for more money from the house to
the senate.
Because of strong economy senti-
ment they decided to let the,nnnuul
fatm appropriation bill go through
the house without a wholehearted
attempt to add 3225,008,#00 for par-
ity payments, but to seek Its inclu-
sion when the measure reaches the
other chamber.
Nevertheless, thsy will try to re-
store during the house debate oth-
er slashes the appropriations com-
mittee recommended yesterday. TO
thst end, they talked of swapping
support of relief and urban housing
appropriations for votes from city
members who ordinarily do not favor
large form expenditures.
The appropriations committee nak-
ed the house to vote $034,374,256 for
all agriculture department activities
next year*-— 20 per cent under the
president’s budget estimates and 59
per cent below tho funds .for tha
current year.
