kensington Grammar school. It is also probable that the board will dis. cuss the action taken by the New Britain school board in possibility oi larring outsiders from the Seniol High school in that city.
 At the meeting of the extension committee held last Friday evening, B. K. Showalter outlined plans for the building of an addition in kensing- ton. He was authorized to get in touch with architects to have prelim- mary plans drawn for the construc- tion of this building.
 In the town annual Mir. Showalter submitted his report which in detail told of the dire need of new build ing in Berlin to care for the growth in the school population. In his re- port Mr. Showalter stated that d fifth of the children are housed in quar- ters opened only as temporary meas ures to meet the emergency brought about by the war. In the report Il, stated that he thought it was wise tc proceed at the present time with plans for erecting the addition at the kensington Grammar school.
 High School Pupils
 Neither Mir. Showalter or any members of the school committee Britain school board taken at it's re- cent meeting in regard to barring outsiders, but it is felt among some of the parents that action should be talk en at the meeting tonight The New Britain board is inclined to believe that there seems to be lack or suf- ticient room to take care of the chill dren by that city.
 As a result they have hit upon the plan of barring non resident pupils from both the Junior and Senior High schools of that city. Berlin would not be as hard hit with the project as would some other towns, due to the fact that this town has a Junior High school of it's own. The pupils in the Senior High school would be affected, however, and there are about 50 who attend from this town.
