It 1s bLelieved that the next school term will present many new problema due to the ever fnereas- ing attendance not only at the Plain- ville Grammar schools, but also at the RBristol High school and the Junior High school in New Britain, which fn- stitutions accommodate the gradu- ates of the local eighth grade rooms.

Reiche gave a report on the shortage of room in the Bristol institutions and definite- ly announced that no Plainville grad- uates could be allowed to enter the Bristol High school next fall. Superintendent Reiche's Report. The following in brief is a report submitted by Superintendent Reiche on the conditions which cause the ac- tion taken by the Bristol board of ed- ucation in barring Plainville gradu- ates t the present time there are about 80 Plainville pupils attending the New BDritain Junior and senior High schools. Also there are 68 pu- pils in Plainville cight grade classes of which about 40 will attend High school next fall. It has been report- od that the New Britain schools may not be capable of accepting any pres- ent Plainville eighth grade pupils next all. With this possibility of taking {0 ecighth grade pupils from Plain- ille this fall, must also be consider- d the possibility of taking some of he present Plainville pupils attend- ng the New Britain High school, thout 80 in number, which will make the total number of pupils to be tak- n in Bristol something like 70. Then, so, there might be more Plainville yupils who graduated from summer schools in Plainville last year who lid not go to High school as they did not care to go to New DBritain and could not come to Bristol. The problem was therefore to con- sider the possibility of planning to \eccommodate about 75 pupils irom Plainville next fall. Cannot be Done “In view of the recent growth of the Bristol 1lligh school, and in further view of the fact that this number of Plainville pupils is fast nereasing, it was therefore the unan- imous opinion of the Bristol com- miesioners that Bristol would be un- able to accept any Plainville pupils next frall. Best for Plainville SiThe commission also felt that it was best for ihe interests of Plain- ville, that considering the continued growth as it has been, it probably would come to pass that before the present eighth grade Plainville pupils would graduate from the Bristol High school, which would, be four years from the present date, the Rristol board of education would be obliged "to have the -Plainville pupils leave in order to provide room for the Bristol pupils. Therefore it would be manifestly fairer to meet thig situation now instead of permit- ting them to enter and then before the completion of their four year term, find they could not remain.” Holy me Entertainment. The Holy Name societey of the Church of Our Lady of Mercy held a successful St. Patrick’s entertain- ment and whist at the church par- lors last evening. A pleasing pro- gram was rendered.
