TITIZENS ADOPT SCHODL REPOR Rhode Island Avenue Group Asks Building at 24th and Bunker Hill Road. Adoption of a lengthy report of its/| school committee, containing numerous | recommendations “on city-wide &nd | Zzoighborhood school matters, constitut- | ed the outstanding business of the | monthly meeting of the Rhode Island | Avenue Citizens' Association in Sher- wood Presbyterian Sunday school hall | last night. i Foremost among the recommenda- | tions adopted was a request that the | Board of Education reconsider the de- sirability of establishing an elementary | school in the vicinity or Twenty-fourth,| street and Bunker Hill road northeast to relieve congestion at the John Bur- roughs and other schools of the com- munity. This suggestion was advanced by the association about a year ago, | but the prospect of overcrowding in some.of the classes this year again has focused attention on its necessiy, E. G. | Sievers, chairman of the school com- | mittee, said. Favor Lengthening Day. Other school maters on which the association expressed a sentiment were i the lengthening of the high school day, | which it approved, and the proposed policy of withholding high school diplo- mas because of improper personal con- | duet, which it disapproved as preju- | diclal to the best interests of the school system. Informed that the new Langdon School probably would not be finished until January 1 instead of September 15, as expected, the association voted to exert every effort to have the building | completed at the earliest possibl moment. | It was reported the new playground at the John Burroughs School nearly is | completed. | The organization instructed its public utilities committee to attempt to | have & lateral bus line inaugurated be- | tween Monroe street and Bladensburg road via South Dakota avenue. Such | a line would be especially beneficial to school children, it was declared. It was also voted to request the removal of the small sized busses now in opera- tion on the Brookland-Woodridge route. ! Fire Hazards Is Claimed. | Claiming the recent growth in that section of northeast had created a fire hazard north of Rhode Island avenue. the citizens requested a new fire engine company be located in the neighbor- | hood of Twenty-fourth street and Bunker Hill road. A committce recommendation that stop signs be placed along Monroe street led to & lengtHy discussion as to whether stop or slow signs were most, desirable | and resulted in the matter being re- | ferred ‘again to the committer. ~The special library committee reported that the work of erecting rented quarters at 2206 Rhode Island avenue northeast, to house the branch public library, would start today and be finished some time in November.
