An appeal for a law to prevent the erection of homes or buildings of any type on vacant property adjoining public schools. which may be used as a playground. is contained in a reso- lution adopted by the Principals® Union at a meeting yesterday after- noon in the Thomson School. Coples of the resolutioh will be sent to mem- bers of Congress, school officials and the Commissioners. The union took this action to pre- clude a repetition of conditions at the Adams School, which is confronted with the loss of its playground be- cause the owner of a vacant lot ad- jacent to the school has made plans for erecting a row of houses on it. The school has no play space for the pupils enrolled there, and the Mothers' Ciub and teachers of the in- itution have repeatedly requested school authorities to acquire the ad- joining property for u permanent playground. Their efforts have been fruitiess. The Mothers' Club and the teach- ers, however, have again petitioned I'the board of education to ask the owner of the property to abandon his ! nd give school officials an op- D to purchase the property | ana it into a playground. 1 This matter is being given serious consideration by Supt. of School Ballou, who has been instructed ithe school board to take it up with the Commissioners. The petition stated that if it asocrtained that the school board is unable to preserve the vacant lot ad- joining the Adams School for a play- zround. steps should be taken to acquire a plot of ground on the op- pesite side of the street from the school which can be converted into a playground. A resolution also was adopted by the union asking that the two-hun- dred-and-forty-dollar bonus be in- corporated in the basic salaries of school employes when the bonus is repealed by Congress. —_—_——— AWARD T0 D.
