B—18 = e SCHOOL TRAFFIC MENACE STUDIED Board Authorizes Probe. Group Promotion Plans Revived. The Board of Education, through BSupt. Frank W. Ballou, will investi- gate traffic hazards in the vicinity of schools as well as the necessity for posting playgrounds with “no trespass- Ing” signs in view of the numerous complaints against after-school loi- terers raised by persons living adjacent to school properties. Authorization for the traffic investi- gation followed a request by Mrs. Philip Sidney Smith at a board meet- ing yesterday that something be done to correct the situation at the Murch Bchool, Thirty-sixth and Ellicott streets, where classes are often de- layed because children are unable to cross Reno road. The superintendent pointed out that there were other places just as bad and the members immediately approved a probe of all danger spots affecting the children. Action on the playgrounds resulted trom a report prepared by Asst. Supt. Robert L. Haycock declaring it evi- dent that they are not properly used after school hours. The report added that police protection is impossible unless the trespassers can be charged by witnesses with disorderly conduct, and recommended that the corpora- tion counsel be asked just how far a posting procedure could be carried | out. Dr. Ballou felt it was not a school problem. Bill Now Pending. “There is a bill now before Congress against loitering on the school prop- ertles,” he added. “Board action might easily expedite such legislation.” On recommendation of the Com- mittee on Group Promotion, Dr. Ballou was authorized to plan promotional examinations under the same regula- tions and requirements that governed the last such examinations, with modi- fications in view of the fact that ex= aminations for promotion to groups B and D were not held over the past two years. The two-year discontinu- ance was due to lack of funds, it was pointed out, but money to permit such tests is carried in the present appropriation bill. The members received a petition from the Teachers’ Union requesting that a detailed statement on the pres- ent status of the proposed new rating sheet for teachers and a statement of the method by which teachers were selected for the experimental use of the rating sheet be given all teachers. i The union declared that uniform in- formation on the matter should be | given to the entire school system m\ that interpretation of the new sheet I WISH | KNEW WHATS WRONG WITH YOUR APPETITES ! 1 SPENT A WHOLE HOUR COOKING THAT BREAKFAST.

Mem- bers at the board meeting yester- day could not help but notice “Willie” wriggling around in his chair when he was calm enough to remain seated. At last he returned from an excursion looking happy and a few moments later Dr. J. Hayden Johnson interrupted the proceed- ings to explain to the other mem- bers of the board. Cawthorne’s wife, it seems, had just presented “Willie” an 8-pound daughter. Beaming, “Willie” received the hearty congratulations of the board from Mrs. Henry Grattan Doyle, the board president, and from individual members. Then business was resumed. would not be left to the discretion of the individual rating officials. Gift Proposal Accepted. The board also accepted the offer of the local Kiwanis Club of a set of books to the physically handicapped child who has made the greatest prog- ress in physical rehabilitation through | co-operation with nurses, physicians and others helping. Dr. Ballou announced examinations to be held to establish rated lists for teaching positions in District evening schools.
