OF GROUNDS School Board Would Have Relief Workers Used in Spreading Sand Over Cinders At the suggestion of Trustee J. J. Gillls, the board of school trustees decided last night to request the city to use some of the labor now being employed on relief work In making improvements to the surface ot some of the school grounds. The grounds were now surfaced with cinders and were full of humps and hollows, being dangerous for the children and hard on their clothes. Trustee Gillls stated.
