ICE GORGES TO
PREVENT BIG DAMAGE

International News Service:
COLUMBUS, O., Feb. 12-After
battling all night, using dynamite
TO blow up great ice gorges in the
Scioto river here in an effort to keep
the foes from menacing several
bridges in the heart of the city,
workers had not deemed danger
past today and were still blowing
up the ice. When the danger Of
ice crushing the town, Broad and
Sandusky st. bridges would pass,
guards could not tell today, because
of the rapid rise in the waters.
Fears of the bridges falling be-
cause of the pounding of the sup
ports by the ice, caused traffic TO
be diverted, and pedestrians were
kept away from the bridges and
dynamite squads.

School Committee Hold Meet
ing Saturday Afternoon

At the meeting of the town school
committee held Saturday afternoon,
Supervisor H. E. Chittenden reported
that out of a total school registra-
ton of 402, there were 500 en-
rolled in the Thrift Stamp cam
paign; the sales for the last week
were $60.91, with a total to date
of $1,388.89. Three schools have
a hundred per cent. enrolment, be-
ing those taught by Miss S. j. Rora-
back, Miss c. Finnegan and Miss
G. Jennings.
In the Junior Red Cross work,
every pupil in the town was enroll
ed, but the delay in securing ma
terials from headquarters prevented
carrying out plans which were made
for work by the pupils.
Mr.. Chittenden said that the atten-
dance for the year had been better
than the average, no serious cpl,
demic of any disease having inter
fered with the more regular attend
ance during the year.
Most of the teachers are to re-
turn for another year, there being
still a few vacancies to be filled Mr..
Chittenden was authorized to hire
the janitors of the various schools
for the next year, there work to
be under his supervision. The COM
mittee voted to approve the plan for
a summer session of the schools as
a war measure, the pupils to meet
a half day each week for Red Cross
work, to report on Thrift Stamp
sales and their own war gardens.
Further details of the plans are to
be announced later.
1t was unanimously voted that
the study of German be discontinued
and that all text books in that lam
guage be destroyed.
