Many complaints were heard by peo- ple on Berlin street this morning when the new sehool bus which takes the children to the,various schools came from East Berlin to Berlin and stopped at the top of Galpin’s hill to allow more children to get on. Almost all seating space was taken when the bus arrived in Berlin, but mdny more boys and girls piled in intil the aisle was filled with standing cholars, which makes it dangerous, it ‘s ¢l@imed. From. what could be learned this morning, the driver was to ‘have returned to Berlin again for his regular Berlin load. Tjis he did not_do, as it is presumed” that his orevious load was so large due to the act that the bus was several minutes ‘ate and the children wanted to get *o school as soon as possible. Many of the children themselves are dissatisfied with the new system of transportation 1nd those in the Berlin street section »f the town rather go on the trolley han to be late waiting for the bus.
