On November 3, 1917, a group of people gathered on top of a wooded hill on the west side of Evansville for the laying of the corner stone for the West Side Junior High School. Attendees would have probably taken the Barker St. trolley and gotten off at the Austin Ave. stop. From there, they would have walked what is now several blocks up the hill to the construction site. Today, that site is home to F.J. Reitz High School.
