The hiring of the firm came after a recommendation from Supt. Louis Grinnell. The school board and the ad- ministration had interviewed several architects during the past month in preparation for making the selection. Two new members, John Sells and Ernest Hamlin, took their seats on the board at the meet- ing Tuesday night. The board elected Dr. Herbert Hergert as chairman, to succeed Lester Spilseth. Spilseth did not seek re-election to the board. Richard Brewer was named vice- chairman and Mrs. Doris Hill- man was re-appointed as clerk. The board received a "letter from the Citizen's Advisory Com- mittee on a site for new athletic facilities and a proposed new secondary school. The committee r c, omende, as its first choice, a 40-acre sit • in the 1Wt. View area owned by Simpson Timber Co. The second  choice was a 40-acre site in  Beverly Heights area.
