SCHOOL
BOARD MEETS
Creation of New Physical Ed
ucation Department is Voted
DoWn-PIan Conference

TRENTON, Jan. 8.-The recon-
mendation of Mrs. Edward l.. Katz-
enbach, member of the State Board
of Education from this city, and
chairman of the boards committee
on hygiene and health, to create a
new department of physical educa-
ton in the states school supervisory
system, with three new positions at
$4,000, $1,000 and $4,000 a year re-
~spectively, raised a storm of protest
at Saturdays meeting of the board
here, and provoked heated discus
sion which did not subside for about
one and one-half hours.
There is already a department of
physical training with DIR. G. r.
Seickel, of New York City, at the
head of it. The new department
was to be called the department of
physical education and would con-
sist of a medical doctor as director
of health administration at $4,000 a
year, a supervisor of physical educa-
ton at $4,000 a year and a super
visor of health instruction at $4,000
annually. The proposed department
was to act in conjunction with the
state health board to secure a high
err standard of health among New
Jerseys school children.
John P. Murray of Jersey City
led the opposition to Mrs. Katzen-
bach's suggestion.
II want to know whether this is
the creation of another swivel-chair
job" said Murray.
There ought to be a re-orgdniZl-
ton of the school SYSTEM" said Mr..
Murray, ito drive out all the fads
and fancies and to restore to the
schools the fundamentals for which
they were established"
The recommendation of Mrs.
Katzenbach, that a bill be drafted
providing the new jobs, was voted
down.
Commissioner of Education John
Enright was authorized to call a
meeting of all the city and county
superintendents of the state, either
at Trenton or Newark, to discuss
nealth education and to plan some
remedy for the overcrowded con-
dition of the curricEla of the schools
of the state.
There will be three bills submitted
to the incoming legislature with the
approval of the state board accord
ing to the favorable action taken at
the meeting to the report of Oscar
W. JSuSTy Ol LlIS tG WpCu, ClldlTludli
Of the law and legislative committee
OF the board. Two If the bills, those
providing respectively for county at
tendance officers il certain counties
and ior a school census. are substan-
TALLY the same as were introduced
in the legislature last year, but
which were defeated.
The third bill 20 b Introduced into
the legislature will provide for the
appointment of the commissioner of
education by the state board, in
stead of by the governor, for a term
of five years. The bill will take eff
feet at the expiration CT the term of
the present incumbent, Commits
sioner Enright, who was appointed
last year for the present term of
four years. This bill would allow
the board to go outside the state
to secure the commissioner. The
salary proposed is the same as at
present, $4,000 a year.

Of EAGLE BOAT
Local Naval Militia 0rganiza-
ton Orders Received
Election of Officers

Orders have been received from
the adjutant generals Office author
izing the organization Of the Third
Battalion Naval Militia. Officers will
be elected this week.
The Perth Amboy unit was organ
lied in October of 1921 with several
officers and men, and since that time
the organization has grown to be the
largest naval militia battalion in the
state and n of the largest in the
third naval district which comprises
New Jersey, New York and Connect
cut.
The floating equipment attached to
the battalion is the largest of its kind
in the state and when the repairs
and alterations are made, there will
be no organization as fully equipped
as the local outfit.
The success of this battalion is
due mainly to the untiring efforts
of it's officers during the trying times

essary to secure material and equip
ment. The assistance rendered by
w. Parker Runyon, who has featured
the organization, as well as Senator
Walter E. Edge, State Senators
Thomas Brown and Morgan Larson,
Governor Edwards, Mayor William
G. Wilson and others have made the
organization what it is today.
While the navy department gave
the equipment and material fer this
outfit including shipkeepers to main
tain it, still all the work of alter
ing the Newton is being done by the
officers and enlisted men of the unit.
The construction of a dock from the
foot of Fayette street to the boat
is being done by Lieutenant Walter
B. Griswold, commanding the Sec
ond division and also staff lieuten-
ant. He also planned the carrying
out of the anchors of the big ship
and burying them so that in case OF
a storm the Newton would not
break from it's moorings.
Lieutenant Lewis Compton, exec
utive officer. has also been active
in the administrative duties aboard
the vessel and the planning of. in
struct;on and lectures for the per-
sonnet. Lieutenant Howard Hardi-
man is also occupied extensively an
seeing that material for the work
is ordered and received.
TIE officers of the local unit are:
Lieutenants Walter w. Wigman,

Nat. W. Pierce. Jr.. Howard Har-
diman, Joseph T. Deegan, Nelson
