NO BIG INCREASE |lN NUMBER OF NEW
 PUPILS IN SCHOOL
Some Will Have Only Half Time Sessions Until Ad-
 justment Is Made

Although it was expected that an unusually large number of pupils would apply for admission to the pub lie schools when they opened today, the returns as reported to Supt. Sam uel J.. .Slawson up to press hour today, do not bear out this, theory. Although there is considerable congestion and some schools must go on half sessions for a time, it does not appear that the 66 new roons which Supt. Slawson asked for. will be needed right away and in the schools in the vicinity of the Remington Arms-U. M. c. Go. plant, the increase in the number of pupils just now is no greater than last fall.
 Up to, press hour to-day reports of registration of pupils had been receiv- ed as follows: The first figures in- 'dicating the registration this year on the first day, the second figures the registration last year on the first day: Prospect street, 7s2-8sos Myrtle ave- nue, 534-422; Maplewood school.
