Of additional room for the pupils of
the Matawan Township Public school
is now one of the serious questions
being considered by the Board of
Education. of which Congressman
elect Elmer II. Geran is president.
The present large building is filled
to capacity and some of the classes
are now. attending on half time.
with the prospects that others Will
soon be placed on half-time
schedule.
Not only are some of the scholars
on part time, but others are sitting
in seats without desks. and meeting
in the attic. while still others are
using rooms that were never de-
signed to be used for housing pupils.
According to superintendent Frank
Howard Lloyd, there are now 900
pupils on the roll in the district and
at the present rate of increase, this
number will reach 1000 by next
September. -Four years ago there
were but a few over 500 on roll.
While the hoard has o
adopted the plans for the new
school, the building committee is
studying details with a view to
meeting the needs of the scholars
at the least possible cost consistent
with sensible equipment. 1t Is
likely that the matter will be pre-
