FIRE HAZARD PROBE OF LANCDON
SCHOOL is ORDERED BY BOARD
Frame Building Is Branded as Worst Trap in Entire
District System by yice President Ernest Green
,uOod-Spirited Debate among Educators.

Investigation of conditions at the
Langdon School. branded by Ernest
Greenwood. vice-president of the
Board of Education, as the worst fire
trap in the school system, was
ordered by the board at an adjourned
meeting yesterday afternoon in the
Franklin School.
Mr.. Greenwoods charges were con
tanned in a report submitted as chair
man of the committee on buildings
grounds and equipment which recon-
mended that the proposed replace
ment of the Langdon School be given
priority over all other items in the
five-year building program. two
story frame structure, the Langdon
Mr.. Greenwood pointed out, is highly
inflammable 1t is heated by a hot
air furnace and its floors are oil
saturated.
A spirited debate came as a sequel
to Mr. Greenwood's recommendation
which was participated in by Supt
Frank w. Ballou, Mrs. William ii.
Heron, Edwin c. Graham and Capt.
Julius l. Peyser. Mr.. Graham de-
clared that if the building is as
dangerous as pictured by Mr.. Green
wood it SHOULD be abandoned or made
safe Immediately. He objected to
keeping the pupils in it for two
years more while new building is
constructed Il think, however" he
said, that some of the statements
are exaggerated"
Calls Condition Serious.
Mrs Heron insisted that the con-
ditions are serious. 'If our children
were attending that school, we would
feel very serious about this situ-
- I,a n
community tell me that the faintest
sound of fire engines fill them with
fear for the safety of the children.
1t is a terrible responsibility for the
board" Capt. Peyser interpolated
that the replacement of the build
ing is "a stern necessity"
The board agreed that the situation
demanded a thorough survey, and in
structed Mr.. Greenwood to make it
and report at a later meeting.
Another report of Mr.. Greenwood.
recommending the erection of third
story addition to the Park View
School, precipitated a protracted de-
bate. 1t finally was laid on the table
on motion of Capt. Peyser, who urged
the board to respect the wishes of the
Park View citizens, who objected to
the proposed addition as third story.
Substitute Teachers Provided
The long and determined campaign
of school authorities for paid corps
OF annual substitute teachers came to
a successful fruition when the board
authorized the appointment Of "a such
teachers, 16 for the white schools and
S for the colored. Their salaries are
provided in the appropriation bill for
the next fiscal year beginning July /.
A definite procedure for qualifying
these teachers also was adopted.
A readjustment of the clerical force
was approved when Supt. Ballou
pointed out that reallocations author
ized by the personnel classification
board would absorb a large portion
of the appropriation provided for ad-
ditional clerks on July l. AS a result
the appointment of the new clerical
employees will be made on a deferred
plan; a few will be appointed each
month over a period of about six
months.
The board agreed to a definite pol
icv regarding the accommodation of
