PUPILS TRANSFER Objgct fo Change From Stanley and Smalley School The aftermath of an order issued Thursday that 20 children living on the north side of Allen street be transferred from the Stanley to the Smalley school was heard at the school boar® meéting yesterday aft- ernoon when aq petition asking that the children be allowed to remain in the Stanley school was submitted by their parents. Two of the group, William P. Walsh and Prospero Francolino, ap- peared at the meeting spoke briefly. Mr. Walsh presented ‘Lhe arguments lof the parents. His son, six years old, is one of the group that has to travel to the Smalley school Monday if the board dces not hold up the transfer. He claims the traffic dangers are great- er and that the schildren have to travel one-tenth of a mile farther. He assured the board that his ob- jection was not based on the belief that the childrén in one school were any better type than those in an- other. “They are all,equal and T am cehfident my boy will come through with the aid of education regardless o7 the children who are about him,” Mr. Walsh said. The children were sent to school last Monday but the order for the transfer was given Thursday. Supt. Holmes said the children are in the Smalley school district and they belong there. They have been allowed to go to the Stanley school under special permission, he declared. According to the superin- tendent the Stanley schoel is crowd- ed and the 20 children were taking the seats of children who live in the district. He said conditions in the Belvidere section are acute and the chldren should go where they be- long. \ “There s room in the Smalley school and no room in the Stanley school,” Me. Holmes concluded. Joseph M. Halloran asked if the ir eonsideration were given to the comparative distances. According to the map tho distance to the Smalley school is less than the distance to the Stanley school, Mr. Holmes said. The superinten- dent suggested the Oak street route of going to school, but Mr. Walsh declared the dangers were greater with three Buses traveling there at all times. Mr. Walsh described the taken by children going to Stanley schodl. He said it" was through back roads where there is little traffic. President P. F. King schools could provide accommoda- tions for children in -whatever building their parents wanted them tion was impossible. A map was studied to determin the distance.

The parents’ petition follows. “To the School Board of the City of New Britain: “We, the undersigned, residénts of the city of New Britain, residing on the north side of Allen street, in said *city, between Btanley street and Carlton street, respectfully pe- tition your honorable board, t¢ per- mit the childrén residing on said north side of Allen street to attend the Stanley school. “The Smalley school, to which the childréen are now assigned, is a considerable distanct further than the Smalley school, from the homes | of the children, and the traffic con- | ditions to the Smailey school are | muth more dangérous, than those |to the Stanley school. | “(signed) Prospeto Francolino. | william P.

He told of high school pupils who | nave lost all their savings with ore poor investment. He felt that lec- | tures should be given by bankers, |loan company officials and others whose advice would be invaluable to the pupils. 3 Committeeman George LeWitt felt the lectures should be given by bank- ers and stop there. “The best in- vestment is the savings bank,” Mr. LeWitt said. Some of the membets said specu- {lators would want to talk and there | I | would be no way of refusing them, | |but Mr. Ward argued. that the com; | mittee could be depended upon to | decide whether they wished to allow | lectures by persons who may or may jnot be giving the right type of in- | formation te the pupils.

NORTHEND SEHO0L HAZARD UP AGAIN tate Grants'Time Exténsion On Improvement Program Attention of the New Britain chool committee was called at its | meeting yesterday afternoon to the | fact that since 1018 the matter of | constructing a fire escape on the Northend school building has been | pending and that numerous exten- |tions of time had been given by the building department of the state | board of education. After the state fficlals were informed that a new Slaughter $59.59 Committeeman Joseph M. Ward | building will probably be construc- ted an extention of one year war given the New Britain authorities. Statehboard officials in their lat- est communication said the North- end school was poorly lighted in all rooms except those in the por- table building. Lighting conditions, at the Israel Putnam school were also unsatisfactory. When George R. Sturges of the | state building .department was dn- formed of proposed improvéements he gave an extension of one year. Correspondence’ on the subject was as follows: July 28, 1930, “To the Members of the New Brit- tain Board of Education, “Dear Sir or Madame: _ “The Northend school in your |city is very poorly lighted. Four rooms in the building have 8 per cent of glass arca in proportion' to the floor area. These rooms are 3 and 4 on the first floor and 7 and 8 on the second floor. Reoms 2 and 6 have 9 per cent, the kindergarten and room 5 have 13 per cent. The only rooms with sufficient light are in the portable building. . “This building needs an additional fire escape. The matter of the con- struction of this fire escape has been pending sifce July 5, 1918. The building has wooden floors and stairs and two awkward exits. In 1918 you were told that a resonable interpretation of the law would de- mand an additional fire escape. A firc escape was promised April 24, 1928. ) “There have been numerous ex- tensions of time in connection with this mafter. This fire escape should be provided before school opens. “Israel Putnam schoel—The door at the top of the basegent stairs should be replaced with a fireproof dogr. “In this latitude there should be sprovided 20 per cent of light or glass area in proportion to the floor area. At this school six rooms have only 17 pe rcent, one Kas 18 and one has 20. | | “Yours very truly, “Bureau of Building Construction and Maintenance, te Board of Education, by “George R.
