SEIDL caption: OFFICIALLY UNDERWAY — The lone female member of the Mid-Prairie school board shows them how it's done as she takes her turn with the shovel at the special ground-breaking ceremonies at the site of the new Mid-Prairie high school east of Wellman Wednesday morning. Shown with Mrs. E.N. Foster of Wellman in the picture are Merle McDowell of West Chester, left, who is retiring from the board this month; Charles Herbert, a Des Moines architect who designed the new building; Dr. C.W. Beckman of Kalona is partially hidden behind Mrs. Foster; and Kenneth Patterson of near Wellman. — Journal photo by Bob Elliott
