On October 22, 1942 a large group of Horace Mann students posed in front of a new billboard advertising the November school levy election. An earlier ballot in the spring was lost because not enough people had voted. The Tacoma school district was seeking an increase in funding because increasing costs and a shrinking budget had necessitated cuts in some school programs. (T. Times 10/23/1942 p.10)
