Mr. Sandâ€" wick gave an interesting discussion uf his recollections of Herbert Hoover in his college days, as they were classâ€" imates at Leland Stanford. Following this talk Mr. Schneiderâ€" of the faculty spoke concerning the growth of the school. He told of the situation when Mr. Sandwick came here in 1903. At thit time the school consisted of Shields hall, which was built to hold 250 students. Even in thuse days his untiring efforts alâ€" ways backed by a forwardâ€"looking suurd of education, caused the school to huve a higher reputation and brought in many tuition . students lvom outside the district. ‘len years later the building was uverâ€"crowded, and a $200,000 bond issue was raised with very little opâ€" paâ€"ition. The East building, the power plant, and the Industrial Arts buildâ€" ‘ng were erected, but due to a lack of funds the second and third floors of the East building were not completed unrtil sevoral years later. During 1920 und 1925 the auditorium was built. In i9603 there were 114 pupils in Deerficld. and cight in the graduatâ€" ing clu=s. Now there are ten times as many students, and twenty times a~ many graduates. The plant today â€" valued at $1,000,000.
