L. ‘m | uAVENPI]RT AGAIN ATTACKS HOIMES Tnsists School Department Head Misled Him Clifton E. Davenport between whom and Stanley H. Holmes, su- perintendent of schools, there has arisen a controversy over the trans- Stanley to the Smalley school, has written an open letter to the board of education stating that he is fully in accord with tie action taken by | the members at a recent meeting in voting unanimously to have his child sent to the &malley school. He states that he did not nbject to }‘1\. ing his son sent to the Smallcy ®ehool, but did object to the use of alleged unfounded or false reasons for transferring pupils from one school to another. But he claims he was misinformed Mr, Davenport's letter follows: “To the achool committee, City of New DBritain, Ct.: “Through the daily press T am {n- formed that your unanimously vot- ed at a recont meoting approving the | transfer of my son to the Smalley school, With that action I am in | accord as you will see by carefully reading my letter of the 4th instant. T do not question the propriety of requiring attendance within divi- sional lines. I do, however, object to unfounded or false reason for making a transfer, and that was the basis of my preceding letter, “Our superintendent {s reported as saying at the mecting that no false statements had hcen made. His statements may be termed incom- petent, improper, vaccilating, mis- clading, false, untrue, or just plain iving. The facts follow. Your chair- man stated to me that the divisional iine for this vicinity is Allen strect hat those residing on the south side reads as thereof must attend the Smalley school, and those on north side, the Stanley school. This was a confirm- ation of what the supcrintendent had stated to one member of your committee, dren on the north atreet, be cn the \ Stwart strect, who are attending the gmalley school; and to complicate the disgusting inaccuracy of our eu- perintendent there is attendance from this same north side of Allen » street at Stanley School, Therefor do vou marvel that we feel a gross mis- ment kas been added to the in- { ustice perpetrated by an incfficlent superintendent? When he was so blandly informing the committee side of Allen railroad and i ler of Mr. Davenport's son from the | again | There are thirteen chil- | used theso same thirteen children were attending the Smalley school I will not cover other streets in the city, as the one citation should suf- fice to emphasize the propriety of my recent letter, The superintendent side-stepping of responsibliity in his letter to our mayor, up to and in. cluding his vertable Charleston at your recent meeting, confirms my |¢ arller impressions that his eonduct land expressions are resultant of in- |tellectual jazz, | “So the matter goes from the | transferring of a child to the broad- er question of veracity, office records and competency. Surely there must be some point where wild guess- !work and unfounded conjecture cease, and real facts begin. ‘Cum |grano ealis’ Indeed, your commite |tee should order sodium chloride by | [the carload It forced to listen to | fairy tales. I state agam, with pos- sible reiteration, that if the annual |1eport of our supcrintendent has as much basis in fact as his entire | handling of this matter, that such report must be a literary rival of the Arablan Nights or even the Red Headed league. | "All this would be facetious in- |decd {f we could forget that your department large sums. Can it be | school committee is basing that the its ac- (tions on recommendations from an | incompetent ? | “Aguin permit me to recommend in all serfousness that a department | ot office records and practice be in- stalled with compulsory attendance | required of our superintendent. In |every statement made, every letter | written on this simple matter thers has been evidence of incompetency. His statement to you that he would | not read a copy of a letter to our | mayor, that he felt it disrespectful to send him such a copy, emphasizes most emphatically his lack of busi- ness knowledge. The practice sending copies of letters to all inter- csted or involved is one universally followed from the president of our country down to the smallest corpo- ration, It would have been discour- teons not to send a copy, especlally as it contained such useful sugges- tions, low me to suggest to the com. mittce, if by your dircetion or other- |Wise the matter of attendance with- in divisional lines is to be adjusted, | that students now in school be un- disturbed. 1 have no wish to see tthe children of my neighbors and friends transferred, to cause them loss of happine: Transferring in- volves loss to any child.

Plans are on foot to re-organize {the Blue Army basketball team in the inter-church league to make it not a Blue army team but an Every- man’s Bible class team. The team then would represent the entire or- ganization instead of just a part of it. Two reasons for the proposed changes are the serious liness of several players in the present team, which threaten the withdrawal from the league if no improvement can be jmade and the fact that the other two armies in the class did not enter teams this season.
