f1areni-The Projected New school
Building.
The Board of Education met last evening
in the High school building. Secretary Day
read report showing the April expenses for
the schools of the city to be SIS, 194.91,
81 500 of which was expended in the pur-
chase of the Gregory street lot. Mr.. Zunder
spoke of the need of an appropriation foR the
building to be erected on that lot and on
motion of Mr. Pond the Building committee
was requested to make plans and specifca-
| lions for the new building.
Two petitions signed by prominent alumni
were read to the effect that for the best in
| terest of the High school Mr.. Whitmore be
elected to the position of principal.
Also two petitions to the effect that Mr..
Curtiss be reelected to his present position,
signed by large number of citizens, were
read.
| The petitions were referred to the Commit
tee on Schools.
| Mr. Strong made motion that the gradu-
alton exercises next year be held in the High
school hall. Superintendent Dutton said
that it was advisable that it be
decided soon; IS the class begins
early to make preparations for
graduation. He said that the new method
of selecting those who take part in the grad
uating exercises would do away with the ex-
elusive attention paid to the few. The mat
4 ter tabled.
| Nj. Zunder then moved that the Board go
into executive session. Mr.. O'Brien opposed
| the motion, saying that the Board had or
| should have nothing to discuss which they
i they dealt with the people the more fairly
i they would be treated. The Board voted to
| hold an executive session-executive in COM
bination with Superintendent button.
Before, however, they adjourned to
the executive session gentle

| on the 18th of March kept one of the girls
out in the hall one hour and a quarter. Com

4 no effect and the children have not been al

/ that E'the whole school system was rotten and
| that TACT was emphasized Dy tne executive
session." Superintendent Dutton told him
| that he ought not to have come before the
| Board, but he was firm and adhered to his
| rights citizen.
/ The executive session lasted over an hour
| Naught could be heard by the reporters on
| account of the bowling of the wind and the
squeaking shoes of the superintendent's clerk
| in the hall. At the close of the session one
| of the members of the Board stated that the
matter in regard to the High school princi

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
The communications in your paper con-
corning school matters are timely. 1t is true
that Mr. buttons cardinal characteristic is
domineering. He will assert his way, wheth-
or right or wrong, just unjust, and the
Committee on Schools permit it.
When Mr.. Dutton assumes so much i'm
portance as to be the means of deposing
principal, he had better step out, for he has
already enyeloped himself in cloud of IN
enviable notoriety.
Very soon we shall hear that Yale college
is moi, properly managed and President Por-
ter must retire to make room for S. 7. Dut-
ton have been informed that when the
superintendent has an antipathy for anyone
employed by the Board he submits such
statements to that body of gentlemen as will
suit himself If this is true New Haven
ought to dispense with him rather than Mr..
Curtiss of the High school. G. W, 70.
