Cement Color Binds Project At Eastern to Plant at Speed Did you know that cement from different quarries tends to be in slightly different shades? Jack Dawson, director of buildings for the County schools, said yesterday he learned this rather forcibly.

The planned all-concrete addition to Eastern High School at Middletown must have cement of the fairly light shade turned out by Louisville Cement Company at Speed, he said. So, although many cement-mill strikes have just been settled the one at Speed must be settled before construction of the 10-room addition can continue. Dawson said Speed cement was used in the original building and in concrete already poured for the addition. Negotiations in the Louisville Cement strike will resume at 4 p.m. today, with a federal mediator Frank S.
