NEED OF CORONER CITED
IN DEATH OF ROOSEVELT
Magistrate Criticizes Wall
stein in Defcrring Zalkin Case

Magistrate Nolan in the West Side
Court yesterday adjourned until to-
morrow the hearing of David Zalkin
e. bus driver. of 266 Kcap street. Brook
lyn. who had been held II 5000 bail
on a charge of homicide in connection
with the killing of Robert b. Roose-
Welt. Jr. Roosevelt died early Sunday
In the Knickerbocker Hospital of In
juries after he was run over the pre-
vious night at Columbus avenue and
Eighteth street.
In granting the adjournment which
was at the request OF the Assistant
District Attorney, Mr.. Goodman, Mag
istrate Nolan criticized the abolition
of the Coroners office. He blamed
Leonard NJ. Wallstein.
'''rhe abolition said Magistrate
Nolan. was brought about by the mis-
guided efforts of a gentleman named
Wallsten. The Coroner had afforded
u scientific investigation in such cases
as this. giving the relatives of tho per-
son killed their day in court. I think
that condition should be in effect to-
day. Either Willingly or unwittingly
Wallsten played into the hands of the
casualty and insurance companies"
Joseph Murray. physical director or
the Yale Club. who was I'm court. was
a witness of the accident and has ex-
onerated Zalkin. He said Roosevelt
fell Sunder the wheels of Zalkn's bus
after he had been struck by a taxicab.

SCHOOL PROMOTION
FOR MISS O'CONNELL
Junior High Principal Sue
ceeds Mrs. Forsythe as
Superintendent.

Miss Margaret r. O'ConneI1. principal
of the Junior High School OF Public
School ITO, was elected yesterday dis
trict superintendent. to fill the vacancy
caused by the election Of Mrs. Grace
Strachan Forsythe TO the position of
associate superintendent.
The election was unanimous. the
Board OF Education acting on the recon-
mendation OF the board Of superintend-
ents. Miss OConnell's nomination was
made by NJ. Samuel Stern and seconded
by Mrs. Emma l.. Murray. both of whom
praised Miss O'Connell's abilities as a
teacher. She is a graduate of Hunter
College and entered the public school
system in 1855 as teacher, being ap-
pointed principal OF Public School 81
In 1901.
Superintendent Ettinger submitted a
report stating that, owing to lack of
funds. evening schools conducted by the
board would be closed earlier than usual
unless the Board of Estimate made ad-
ditional appropriations. The mainten-
ance or these evening classes cost the
city during 1921 s1.555.259, while In
the 1922 budget the city authorities cut
this amount down by S95,57S.
To keep all schools open on the basis
OF 1921, DIR. Ettinger declared. the school
system would require an additional
$121.S12. and the continuance of the ele-
mentary schools alone would cost $94.-
4s7. 1t is planned to keep as many
schools as possible open until the middle
of October and then request the Board
Of Estimate to transfer available school
funds
The recommendation of the Local
