Characterizing the signing of school system supply requisitions by the presi- dent of the Board of Education as “‘an idle and misleading gesture,” Dr. Charles F. Carusi, president. of the board, successfully appealed to his col- leagues at their meeting yesterday to relieve him of that duty. Actuated by the belief that the school board pres dent’s signature upon requisitions was a habit that “had just grown up” without legal requirements, the board decided of its secretary would sufficient. At the same meeting, held in the Franklin Administration Building, the board agreed to accept no radio recefv- ing sets from parent-teacher organiza- tions or other agencies which may offer them to public schools, until & definite program of the educational use to which such receivers can be put in the school, and machinery for the control of the programs to be received over the sets can be set up. ‘The board also indicated that it might reconsider its action of two weeks ago in retiring Dr. E. J. Kimball, supervis- ing principal of the third division. Since the board decided at its last meeting | that Dr. Kimball, who has reached the retirement age .during the current schdol year, must retire in June in ac- cordance with the rules governing re- tirements, nearly 30 protests from civic | bodies and prominent residents of the | community which the third division em- | braces, have been received. Expenditures Approved. In the same session, the board ap- proved the recommended _personnel changes of Dr. Frank W. Ballou, su- | perintendent, and approved the expendi- ture of $21,853.19 for school repairs from April 29, through May 11. In asking that he be relieved of the necessity of signing the scores of requi- sitiohs which are sent to the District Building almost daily, Dr. Carusi point- ed out that the need for equipment is decided upon by the school officers and that that need can b> legitimately and efficiently checked only by those officers. He contended further that the type and general quality of equipment, whether it be a desk and chair, china or even a piano, already has been decided upon by the school "system’s specification committee and that the requisitions are made in accordance with the Federal Specification Board's findings which are printed in book form and made avail- able to all Government departments. With economies thus checked auto- matieally, Dr. Carusi declared the sign- | ing of the reguisitions by the president | of the board or by board members “is | an idle and misleading gesture.” The | board agreed and Harry O. Hine, secre- tary, was instructed to sign the requisi- tions in the future. The payrolls, how- | ever, will continue to carry with them | to the District Building, the signature | of the presidcnt of the board or a| member. | Radio Question Discussed. The question of radio was brought before the board when a parent-teacher association asked whether it could donate a radio set to its school. Dr. Ballou asksd who, in the event receiv- ing sets were installed in the schoco’s, would undertake to control the pro- grams which would be heard over them; when they could be used, and, briefly “to what use can radio be put in the schools?” He declared that radio education is already a pressing matter before educa- tors throughout the ccuntry and that already steps are being taken to unite school people and radio broadcasters upon a common ground, where radio can be used to advantage in teaching. Dr. Carusi agreed that radio might be an excellent thing, but asked—seri- ously, for all his smile: “What's the good of having a radio until we have somz use for it?” Dr. Ballou asked the board to withhold its acceptance of any proffered sets until adequate machinery for their control in the schools can be set up. The board agreed with the superintendent’s petition. A petition from the Columbia Heights Business Men's Association for the re- tention of Dr. Kimball for another yea provoked the suggestion that the boa might reconsider its former action con- cerning the supervising principal’s re- tirement. Henry L. Gilligan, member, queried whether the board’s last action was permanently binding and Dr. Carusi advised that the board may take any other action on Dr, Kimball's status provided it acts before Junc 30. Want Dr. Kimball Retained. Any ' member, the president said, may institute proceedings culminating in ‘a motion that the board rescind its former action and authorize the retention of Dr. Kimball for another year. Several board members declared they had been besieged by both indivi- duals and organizations on behalf of Kimball's retention. No new proposal RESORTS. TODAY'S AMUSEMENTS.

The Federation of Citizens' Associations hdd requested the board to® approve the distribution. While he declared he has “no per- sonal objection to. this type of excel- lent literature being distributed in the schools,” Dr. Carusi said he believes it “safer not to take any official action in_the matter.” “In two words, my attitude is ‘hands off, " Carusi said. The other board members agreed that in view of its recent decisino to forbid the- distribu- tion of atheistic, communistic and other literature which may be con- troversial, they had better not take official action in the matter, of the bibical literature.
