On Jan. 19, spokesman Lennie Hayes told the Warsaw Redevelopment Commission that Marsh held the option to buy four properties near the Freshman High site.

He said Marsh would follow the school's bid specifications. 50 Years Ago The Warsaw High School choir, directed by Miss Margaret Ann Voirol, will present a program of sacred and secular numbers at the Warsaw Rotary Club luncheon meeting this Friday noon at the Civic Center.
