Strong Opposition
Most critics have been writing as if
Cornell had a sure thing in the four
mile race. The lthacans are certainly
very strong. but in Chicago, Syracuse
and Princeton they are sure to meet
teams that will beat eighteen minutes
There is such keen interest in the big
international two mila race that most
people have lost sight of the remark =
able entries for the other relay cham =
pionships. Eighteen minutes has been
beaten at the relays only once, namely,
by Cornell in 1916, but the above
five teams should all beat this time.
Syracuse. with Simmons and Watson,
both of whom can do 4 minutes u sec.
onds, expects to make a new record
in the four mile event. Princeton and
Chicago also have very fine milers, so it
is sure to be very closely run relay.
If State elects to stay out of the two
mile race, it will also have a very
fast four mile quartet, with Larry
Shields running the last mile. II
Lafayette can stay up the irst three re-
lays and likewise with Georgetown,
then Crawford. of Lafayette, and Con-
molly. of Georgetown. will take some
beating. In that final mile, the above
two men. Shields, McDermott, of Cor
nell. and Otis, of Chicago, can all beat
4 minutes 20 seconds. 80 there should
be some action in the four-mile relay

ENLARGED JUNIOR
HIGH SCHOOL PLAN
S. E. Kramer Says System
Is SuccessfuIHLooks to
Broader Studies.

Upon the completion of accumulated
| routine matters. public school Of
| ficials will turn their attention to
drafting plans to enlarge the tenta-
| tive junior high school system, es-
time last September This has been
indicated by Assist. supt. Stephen e.
Kramer. who expressed the opinion
that the success Of these institutions
OF learning has been assured, and that
actual plans to enlarge the schools
and the scope OF the studies soon will
be undertaken.
Enrollments Increase.
With enrollments of less than a
hundred when first started. the white
junior high school, which is being
operated in the old Central High
School building at 7th and o streets.
and the colored Junior institution. in
the Dunbar High School. have grad
ually increased their enrollments un
til now 36s students are studying in
the white school and 243 in the COL
ored.
The present accommodations in
these schools have virtually reached
their maximum, and the assistant su-
perintendent Is of the opinion that
when the schools open after the sum-
mer vacation, on September 20. hum
dreds of grade school pupils will make
application to enter them.
To cope with the situation, Mr.. Kra-
mer firmly believes that the accom-
modations In these institutions will
have to be extended. There is more
room for extension Of the classes in
the colored junior high school, and at
! the white institution at least twenty
vacant rooms are available.
Twenty-Five Rooms Available.
Twenty-Five rooms in the white ju-
nior high school are now available,
but a few Of these. designed for labo-
ratory work, cannot be adeQua tely
equipped for classrooms without great
expense.
AS the Junior high schools were only
instituted for experimental purposes
to relieve overcrowding in the grade
and high schools, no comprehensive
program of extension was mapped out
by school officials. With their sue
cess assured their enlargement, school
officials point out, is imperative, and
in future years they predict a large
system Of these schools in Wash
ington.
To accomplish the desire to en-
large the junior high schools and the
scope of their studies. officials have
only one perplexing problem to over
consolidating additional teachers.
However, with about five months to
work on this problem they are conf
dent that 1t will be solved, and the
junior high school system will secure
a stronghold in Washington as in
other large cities Of the north and
middle west. from which it was
copied.

NEARLY 1000 EVICTED TENANTS
AIDED BY NEW YORK COURTS

NEW YORK, April NEARLY 1000
evicted tenants were assisted by
courts in this city yesterday under
new laws against rent .profteering. In
most cases either the landlords agreed
to delay evictions until the tenants
whose rent had been raised could find
other apartments, or the magistrates
summarily granted stays of eviction
varying from one to six months.
Many courts could handle nothing
but rent cases. Streets in front of
some courts were blocked and police
reserves were called to handle the
crowds, for whole families went to
court. baby carriages and all. The
number of tenants alone in some cases
was beyond the capacity of the court
room.
Justice Morris Of the westchester
court told a landlord that $40 a month
was too much to pay per room for
basement quarters and informed the
tenant he could remain until the
lease expired in October and pay
only $6.
