G. Vibberts moved that the board go before the board of finance and taxation, the |common councll and the city meet- ing board with a new request for a bond issue of $780,000, which is $155,~ 000 more than the amount last night. How Money Would Be Spent Mr. Vibberts incorporated in his motion, the following items, which he said were all approximate figures: An addition to the Nathan Hale school on Tremont street, $170,- 000. An additional building for the Smalley school, $185,000. A new school to relieve conges- tion in the East and Smith schools, $157,000. Land for a school in the Mon- roe school district, $40,000, An eight-room building on the above land, $75,000. An addition to the school building, $55,000.. An addition to the Osgood Hill school, $55,000. Land for a new school in the southern district of the Lincoln school, $22,000. Allowance for the cost bonds, shrinkage, etc., $10,000. Total, $780,000. There were no remarks on the mo- tion after it had been put by Chair- man B. I'. Gaftney and the board, by unanimous vote of those present, em- powered its finance and school ac- commodations committee to go before the finance and taxation board with its program. The board is without bonds to carry out its bullding program. Last year the finance board acted favorably upon a building program calling for bonds to the amount of $625,000 and the council and city meeting board concurred. Last month the city meet- ing board was in session again and rescinded the vote. Stanley of Conference Committee Appointed | Chairman Gaffney told the commit- tee that a conference committee has been selected by representatives of the city meeting board now conduct- | ing a school survey and that a request City Items.

Delay On Fraternity Report The subcommiittee on school fra- ternities asked for a menth's contin- uanee so that a report may be pre- pared. The fraternity question has been before the committee, but has been continued, tabled and referred to committees on several occasions. Because of the termination of H. H. Pease's services on the beard, Mr, King was named on the subcommit. tee. On motion of Mr, Vibberts, Mr, Holmes was also made a member of the committee, Cannot Contribute Toward Fence A communication was received from Principal Marcus White of the State Narmal school relativs to the proposs ed fence around the Camp school, in which he offered to pay $300 toward the fence if the oity would pay the other $1,200, After a discugsion it was recommended that a letter be sent Mr, White thanking him for his office, but explaining that the board has not the money with which to erect the desired fence. Letters were recelved from Princi- pal Harold Dempsey of the Elihu Burritt Junior High school and Prin- cipal W. C. French of the Central Junior High school, relative to gradu- ations. The matter was referred to Mr, Holmes with power, It is ex- pected that work in the schools will be completed June 14 and graduation exercises held on the following day. It was voted to spray 60 trees in schopl yards at a cost of $1.60 a tree, The work will be done by the Millane Co. Dental l‘{yflmls& Appointed. On recommendation of the health and sanitation committee, Miss Pearl M. Young was engaged as a dental hygienist at a cost of $25, hers being the third appointment this year. The finance committee recommend- ed payment of bills to the amount of $6,389.79 and it swas so voted. The attendance bureau report showed an increased attendance of 294 during the month just past over the same month last year. Elihu B, Tillman was engaged as an instructor in gen- eral sclence at a salary of $2,375. Retrenchment Program. On motion of Mr. Roche, a report of the teachers’ committee and its recommendations, were adopted. The report suggested ways and means of making up a part of the $44,5600 cut from the board’s estimates of last year, The report follows: (1) That all department heads in Senior High school be assigned to su- pervise these speclal subjects in grade 9 of ‘the junior high school. This work to be performed without extra compensation and without reduction in the amount of time now given by them to ¢lass teaching. This includes the following subjects, English, ma- thematics, Latin, history and French. This recommendation is made with a view of securing better articulation between the work of the senior and junior, high schools. (2) Attention is called to the fact that in the school department appro- priation for 1923-24, cuts below the estimates were made as follows (glv- ing table of reduced appropriations.) In view of these cuts as shown above the teachers’ committee suggests that the following measures be taken in an attempt to reduce expenses and keep within the reduced appropriations: (1) To omit the appointment of a principal’s assistant for the Senior High scheol (net savings estimate for seven months, September to Apidl, $1100.) (2) To omit the appointment of a librarian for the Senior High school (net saving for seven months, $1100.) (3.) To reduce expenses for High school graduations as follows: (a.) Confine the exercises to the school auditoriums; (b.) Omit the presenta- tion of flags to graduates; (e.) Have no paid speakers. Estimated saving, $300. (4.) Combine all junior high school shops, giving 30 puplls to each in- structor, and reducing the number of instructors from 17 to 10. Some ex- penditure will be necessary for mov= ing machinery and equipment involv« ed in the combining of the shops sug- gested—estimated $1,000. U work for your money; make your money work for you.

To establish definite bases as to the average number of pupils per teacher in all schools and grades, as a check on expenditures. The fol- lowing bases are recommended; (a.) In Senior High School, an average of 24 puplls per. teacher; (b.) In Jualor High schools, an average of 30 pupils per teacher; (c.) In . Elementary Schools and kindergartens, an aver- age of 356 puplls per teacher, An average of 24 pupils per teacher in Senior High school, based upon an estimated number qf 1,100 puplls for next September - would ' require 46 teachers instead of 56 teachers. It is understood that the assignment of teachers for special subjects will in- terfere to a certain extent, but the committee is of the opinion that an effort should be made to increase the number of pupils per teacher from approximately 20 pupils as at .the present to approximately 26 .pllpfll. Petition From East End. A communication from residents of the east end of the city asking for better school accommodations in that section and for playgrounds, was tabled and copies will be sent to the common council and the board’ of finance and taxation. The communi- cation follows: “To the members of the hoard of education, city of New Britain: We, the undersigned citizens, taxpayers and parents of children attending the Smith and East street schools, beg leave to petition your honorable body for more school facilities in the east- ern part of the city, with “enough room for playground as the needs for such are very urgent in this part of the city for some of our children are at the present time attending school only half days and are not derlying enough benefit from half day attend- ance; furthermore, the portable school buildings are not fit for the children to stay in, and neither one of the above mentioned schools has sufficient ground for the children’s recreation. . “A playground in this section is most urgent as most of us are not fortunate enough to be able to take our children out to the shore for the| - summer or some other place of rec- reation and they are obliged, during the summer vaaction to play on the streets which is not the safest place for children. “In justice to us taxpayers of the eastern section, we belleve that we should be considered and provided for the education of our children as well as you have provided the other sec- tlons of the city.” HAVE YOUR EYES EXAMINED AND GLASSES FITTED BY A.
