Purdy land dispute ends with city owning land where schools stand Surveyor Sam Goodman, standing at center, shows Purdy School Board members where the real boundaries lie for school property. Contrary to landstanding belief, half of the school buildings in Purdy are on city property. A deed giving possession of the city park and the high school to the school district was predated by an earlier deed, giving the property to the city. Looking on are School Superintendent Jerry Lingo, at center, and Randy Henderson, school board president, at right. [Times Photo by Murray Bishoff]
