CROWDED SCHOOLS
FOR SOME SECTIONS
General Conditions Over Dis
trict Will Be Known by
End of Week.
47,361 CHILDREN ENTER
ON FIRST DAY OF YEAR
Central Shows Greatest Increase
Among High Schools-Non-
Residents Get Free Tuition.

Just how badly Washington's public
schools will be overcrowded this year
probably will not be known exactly
until the end of the week. The enroll
ment is expected to increase by a large
number each day until that time.
Official figures of the opening yester-
day show that 41.361 were enrolled, as
against 44.436 last year. Central High
School had the largest increase of any
individual school. enrolling 1923 pupils,
as against 76l last year. Mckinley
Manual Training School and Eastern
High School showed slight increases.
while Western and Business High
showed slight decreases.
White schools enrolled 34.010 chill
dren, while 1851 were taken into the
colored schools. These figures both
showed increases over those of last
year-31,220 and 1926. respectively.
Precaution Is Taken.
The Chevy Chase and Takoma Park
schools were in the line for the great
est overcrowding, the law compelling
non residents of Washington to pay
tuition fees having been abolished.
This is bringing in large numbers of
suburban children. Supt Ernest L..
Thurston guarded against this much
as possible. however, by giving direc-
tons whereby the interests of the
pupils coming from the District were
given first consideration. Upon all
tickets issued to non resident pupils
was written the statement: ''Subje It
to transfer to another building if seat
is needed to accommodate applicant
from the District of Columbia" In
the case of overcrowding in the sub
urban schools these nonresident DuDils
will be sent to schools farther in
where the crowding is not SO great.
Two of the points where overcrowd-
ing is expected to develop greatest
during the course of the week are in
the ninth division, covering the South
east and Anacostia. and in Columbia
Heights.
Enrolment Figures.
Following are the figures of enroll
ment for this year and the total for
