SCHOOL CROWDING
CAUSES HARDSHIPS
Business High Pupils on Double
Shift and Others Turn
ed Away. -.

The unusually crowded conditions
at Business High School have caused
hardship to the pupils enrolled, and
forced the school to adopt a policy
of refusing to register pupils who
wish to take but part course.
For those who are enrolled the
crowded conditions mean the double
shift. This double shift means that
the pupil has no opportunity for con-
ferences with his teachers except as
he may happen to secure such con-
ferences in the halls or in the office.
To the entering student it means that
he will have no opportunity to par
take of the schools activities, and
that special attention and those spe-
cial activities which he particularly
needs on entering high school must
necessarily be denied him.
Students Turned Away.
Allan Davis. principal of the Bust
ness High School. said to the re-
porter: Il deeply regret that the
turn away many worthy students
Much though L should like to extend
the privilege to every ambitious
young man or woman to secure an
education. or such part of it as he is
able to secure, the crowded conditions
force me to accept only students who
wish to take a full course and to re-
fuse entrance to all students who do
not wish to take the complete course.
1t can readily be seen that such a
course as this, which we are neces-
sarily forced to adopt, is unjust and
truly unsocial in principle. We hope
the time Will soon come when we will
be able to accommodate in a larger
building all students who wish to
study in the Business High School,"
