Appeals for rellef of senior high #chool congestion marked the joint conference between the Board of Edu- cation and delegates of citizens and arent-teacher associations on the 1835 gudget last night at the Franklin School Administration Building. In all, the citizens asked for 12 sep- arate new school building projects and urged the acceleration of & thirteenth already authorized. These new projects included two additions to existing senior high schools, one new senior high school, three new elementary schools, two additions to elementary schools, one new vocational school and three additions to existing junior high schools. Outstanding in the list of requested tmprovements to present conditions was an appeal for an addition to the| Eastern High School, which would in- | crease the school's capacity by 1,500. This petition was presented by A. H Gregory, spokesman for the Stanton Park Citizens' Association, who pointed out that Eastern, opened in 1923 with accommodations for 1,100 students, now is carrving on its rolls 2800, forcing | the institution on a “double shift” or| «“staggered plan” of operation. Mr.| Gregory told the board further that| with the opening of school next Sep- | school which other delegates sought to have up. the proposed Fort Money was appropriated the ‘Krep.nuon of the plans, yet the drawings have not been turned out. In urging acceleration of construc- tion several delegates, including Walter Rastall, president of the Western High School Home and School Association, explained that Western is faced with & double-shift program .of its student body in the near future, and that un- less the Wilson High School is made available in short order the efficiency of Western, the school it will relieve most, will be seriously endangered. A petition was presented also for the construction of seven new class rooms and a connecting corridor at the new Rooeevelt High School. This building, opened for the first time this year, Edward R. Williams, its chief peti- | over- | & tioner _explained, aiready is crowded.
