When detectives began snpins

from the systems"
The climax came this morning

.LANCDON- SCHOOL
IS DECLARED SAFE
Commissioners Decide to
Continue Use When Seib
Reports on Fire Hazard.

The District Commissioners decided
in board session today that there is.
not sufficient fire risk to warrant the
closing of the TWO story frame public
school at Langdon.' In making public
this conclusion. however. Engineer
Commissioner Bell said he would
suggest TO the Board of Education
that those parents who are uneasy
over sending their children TO the
I.ancdon School he permitted to send
them To some other nearby school.
Col. Bell said the conclusion Of the
careful investigation by Fire Marshal
Seib, in which he said;
This building can be considered as
safe for school purposes since the
above improvements have been made
as any other two-story frame build
ing"
Seib added that a building Of FIRE
proof construction would be much
safer and expressed the hope that as
soon as appropriations permit all
school buildings in the District will be
of 1reproof construction.
Parents Raised Issue.
The advisa tblitN OF continuing 10
use the Langdon School because 1t
is a two story frame structure first
arose when parents and residents of
that section laid their views before
the Board Of Education. The School
Board in turn asked the Commission
ers whether the use Of the building
should be discontinued.
In his report to the Commissioners
the Are marshal explained the Inn
provements which he said would pre-
vent Are which might start in the
furnace or fuel rooms from spreading
to the upper floors. Self-closing
doors separating the furnace and fuel
rooms from the rest OF the building
have been installed and the openings
around the heating pipes have been
closed The Are marshal reported the
building has FIVE exits on the first
floor. Two additional exits from the
second floor are located at the rear
of the building.
Col Bell expressed the hope that a
new building may be erected at
Langdon soon.

an appeal to Gov. Richardson to in.
