INSPECTORS 0. K. NEWINGTON SCHGaL : Engineers to Recommend Ac- ceptance at Meeting Tonight The junior high school in Newing- ton over which a controversy has raged for a long time has been ap- proved by the two engineers selected to inspect it, and the office of Pervy | & Bishop has been wotified that a report favorable on the acceptance of the building will be made at a town meeting this evening. The proposal to hold up payments until the building was inspected ly two disinterested cngineers was adopted by resolution February 27 at a town meeting. At that time considerable opposition develope: much of it based on minor critici of the building which were later ex plained by D. K. Perry, Yeeling at the meeting tense and 1. L. Harding, chairma of the building committee, and Harry H. Howard chairman of tlie board of education, submitted their 1esignation. Former Highway Co missioner Charles J. Bennett and Philip A. Mason,” building inspector of the city of Hartford. were leeted to inspect the building, The inspection, according to report was very thorough. 1he engineers did not cut out por- tions of the floors or walls to test them, they did get all the bills and purchasing orders for materials and aft>r a thorough inspection of every was in- the portion of the building and a cheek | up on supplies have reached the de- cision that the bLuilding is ever thing the people of Newington have a reasonable right to expect. The report frankly states eertain advantages not the specifications should have becn added. but goes on to explain thut hecause of the lack of sufficient funds these were loft out. Cons erable space in the report over to the recommendation that an additional septic tank and increascd sanitary facilities be added at once. stracts from the report take up certain things which were under fire, as follows: “An ingpeetion of the dicates from outward that with some t sustruction is well done. i We are of the any attempt to br gymnasium floor or ex- find out if it is properly with the would he unwise cntal to the building, 1o particular value to the t vestigation of the that the general pur- chased more than suficiont cinders to lay the required depth nnder the floor, indicating that this particnlar part of the work was not skimped The general appearance of the floor is good and we suggest that the general Contractor he requested 1o furnish a five-year bhond giving surety that if defocts in the floor which cin be traced divectly 1o nstruction, the floor shall be repaired or repluced by the tractor without expense to the town. “Auditorium fioor: We are of the opinion that the floor as construct- e is gafe for the load specificd, with a reasonable mirgin of safcty, We recommend that if the town is not satisficd with the opinion thus ex- pressed, the avthorities arrange for a suitable test of a tion of this floor under a load tuice that specified to be applied before the scats placed, to thoroughly everyone of the ultiniate ‘y of the structure.
