NO REPORT YET ON
MORE MEN TEACHERS

II is not likely that there will he
any report from the teachers com
mittee of the Board of Education at
the regular meeting Of that body to-
night on the matter of employing
more men teachers at the Wilmington
High School. there being seven male
instructors now at the school as COM
pared with twenty-five women teach
ers. The subject was brought up at
the last meeting Of the board by Dr.
H. G.. Buckmaster, and was referred
TO the teachers committee.
AS the classification of teachers will
not be made for a month yet and the
appointments Of teachers for the next
school year will not be made until
June. it is hardly likely that the COM
mittee will take up the matter for dis
cussion for at least a month.
