Moving Day At Perry School: Seven new classrooms at Perry School were used for the first time today. The classrooms are part of a $300,000 addition to the front of the former Harriet School. Besides the classrooms, the addition has a gymnasium-auditorium, kitchen and office. The top view [this photo] shows Perry School's "new face." One of the seven new classrooms is shown in the lower picture. Among members of Ruth P. Samson's first grade class are fifth graders who helped in this morning's moving operation. The addition will be formally dedicated Nov. 28.
