REGRET HALF-FILLED SCHOOL

Thomas w. Smith, president Of the
East Washington Citizens Association,
made a brief reference to the Eastern
High School tangle in his annual report
to the association last night. but con-
trary TO expectations. no action was
taken or plan outlined for a campaign
against the reinstatement of Principal
M. f. F. SwartzelI
After President Smith completed his
report. officers were elected, as follows:
Thomas w Smith, president; NJ l.
Weller, vice president; A. F. Sperry.
secretary; B. w. Clark, treasurer;
members Of executive committee, w.
Mosby Williams. j. w whepley. and
John w. Babson
With the exception OF J. w. Whep-
ley. who was substituted for E. l. Not
tingham. the roster was a repetition Of
last years.
IN his report, Mr.. Smith said:
Woe is the lot of the youth OF our
section seeking knowledge. unless the
SsSuth elects to take the academic
course. Then he will find ample room
at our new Eastern High School, where
there is more than plenty.
This association has acted through
Its executive committee, during the
usual summer recess of the association.
on the question of the retention of the
principal of the new Eastern High
School. The action of the Board Of
Education has been made public. and
the status is as il was when the as5o-
citation adjourned at its last meeting.
The new committee on schools and
libraries will take up any question this
association refers TO IT,
This association wanted to know why
our well-located roomy and weIl-ap-
pointed high school had in l9O4-5 one
half the scholars IL had enrolled the
first year 1t was opened The building
is there and will accommodate 500 or
more students. 1t has capable teach
ers. The building is comfortable and
sanitary Other high schools are full
TO overfiowing. Why not fill this mag
nificent building?
The boys and girls TO I'LL ii are with
in easy reach of it's doors. The Board
Of Education has the power to fill its
halls. Why pay corps of teachers full
salaries for doing half work. The faculty
OF the new Eastern High would wei
come the day when every seat in that
school Is filed and other students
knocking at the doors for entrance"
Mr.. Smith spoke of the improvements
which are being torn down and sup
planted by new structures such as the
new office buildings for the Senate and
House of Representatives.
Speaking further Mr.. Smith said: This
association has sustained me- in a de-
nand for the removal of the Jail and
workhouse. the smallpox hospital and
Washington Asylum Hospital to more
remote locations. This city is growing
fast and wants TO grow East. but cannon
because or the blighting influence OF
these penal institutions and contagious
disease hospitals. No other section OF
the city wants them or would tolerate
them"
