Editor's note: In "Time Out," we reported that a jury acquitted Sherron Lewis, Jr., of charges of assaulting his brother Blaine with a flashlight on the night of October 15, 1991. In fact, there were two separate incidents that night. Sherron was found not guilty of allegedly assaulting Blaine earlier in the evening but pleaded guilty to hitting his brother with a flashlight several hours later. Our apologies for the confusion.

Building for the Future
T.R. Witcher's article on the Evans School ("Edifice Wreck," March 21) was very interesting. I remember the building as a school in which Lois Field, the principal, ran one of the best educational programs for the near-deaf in the United States.

I would like to suggest that the building be made into an historical museum for education. There is no such institution in the West with which I am familiar. There must be a wealth of artifacts available to make it a real showcase. In addition to artifacts, historical educational documents could be stored there, and that portion could become a combination archive and research library. This could be a great project for Westword to undertake.
