schools might be cut down without seri-
ously affecting the curriculum, and It's uni
form application to all the schools.
The starting hour for most OF the schools

amendment to the constitution. adopted at

dent TO appoint an executive committee Of
fifteen one from each of the schools repre-
sented on the board, to deal with this and
other problems during the ensuing year.
