LOS PADRES
INTRANQUILOS

Como es natural, los padres de ia
milia que tienen chiquillos en- dicha es-
cuela. estan sumamente intranquilos, Y
Sc les hace un verdadero sacrificio man
dar a sus muchachos a clase, temiendo,
no sin raz0n, que de un momento
otro, haya que lamentar una catastro-
fe, dadas las pGsimas condiciones en-
que esta ell edificio en- question.
A nosotros nos consta que las auto
ridades municipales escolares estan ha-
ciendo cuanto materialmente esta su
aleance por habilitar ell mayor n1mero
possible de salones de clase, remediando
en- algo. el conflicto escolar con que
nos confrontamos. Y estamos seguros
de que respondiendo los deseos de
esos padres de familia, Sc ordenara una
Investigation, para que dicha escuela
sea examinada. Los padres de familia
con qllienes hemos estado hablando, nos
han dicho, que ellos estan seguros, de
que ell edificio sera clausurado, inme-
diatamente que las autoridades escOla-
res Sc den cuenta del pesimo estado en-
que esta
Nosotros a nuestra yez, y cOrrespoIi-
diendo a los Geberes que con ell pdbli-
co tenemos contrafdos, trasladamos la
queja al Director Escolar, seior Con
|zdlez Ginorio, quien esta lleno de los
mejores deseos. Y quien 81 Sc convence
de que en- realiGad ell edificio amenaza
ruina, ordenara su clausura, hasta que
sea debidamente reparado. Hay que te-
ner en- cuenta, que las yidas de muchos
niiIos estdn amenaZadas, pues en- cual-
quier momento el edificio puede desplo-
Imarse por complete. Estam0s seguros
de que el se1or Gonzalez GinoriO ac-
tuari de acuerdo con las circunstan-
