SOUTHEAST IS TOLD OF SCHOOL PLANS Supt. Ballou Defends Ap- portionment in Building " Program. Endeavoring to smooth out any dissatisfaction resulting from the ap- portionment of the proposed school expansion as provided in the five- year bullding program, Supt. Frank W. Ballou addressed the Lincoln Park Citizens' Association in the Bryant School last night, explain- ing how the southeast section is pro- vided for. Defending the school board's build- ng plan sgainst the claim of some citizens that it is rigid and inelastic, Supt. Ballou explained that it was not the intention to place school ex- pansions in a ‘“straitjacket” for the next five yvears, but in order to avoid having Congress cut out desired ftems the bill had to be drawn in a specific manner, with sites for new buildings and additions to old ones deflnitely stated. The bill as drawn, he declared, is sufficiently flexible to permit of the necessary expansion in the growth of the schools. Kramer and Haycock Speak. Stephen E. Kramer and Robert L. Biaycock, assistant superintendemts of schools, also addressed the meet- fng. Mr. Kramer, who was one of the first teachers in the first Eastern High School in the present Peabody Bullding, stated that Wasaington is on a fair road to realizing an ambi- tlon cherished for years and ome to which it is justly entitled—the city with the best school system in the United States. The association unani- mously indorsed the five-year build- ing program. Resolutions were adopted opposing the expenditure of $358,000 for equip- ment and labor for the removal of anow, as proposed by Commissioner Bell. It was characterized as a ‘wasteful expenditure of public funds in face of the infrequency of severe snowstorms in_this cf Indefinite assignment of Maj. J. G.
