Omen Sept. 80

Evening schools are 10 open Monday, Sept. 30, the board decid- ed. Because of crowding for regis tration on opening night in the past, 1t has been decided to have registration take place in the week before opening night, that is, on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, Sept. 23, "A and 25. All who plan to enroll in night school work will be required to enroll on one of these three nights. Further notice will be given through the press and posters will be printed.
 It is believed that this will per- init much more to be done on open ing night.
 Italian Teaching A letter from Peter Morello, chairman of the group interested in having Italian taught in local schools, was read to the board. It expressed the hope Italian would be taught here and submitted names of 29 students who said they would like to take a course in it were 1t taught here. The matter had been brought to the board last spring and the committee sponsor ing it was told more definite action would probably be taken this fall.
 Supt. Chittenden said two pos- sible courses are being considered. One of these would be to have it taught in evening schools, the other would be to have it taught under the government relief program, that Is under Works Progress ad- ministration.
 Because affairs of this sort are at a standstill due to the change now going on, from EZRA to WPA, nothing can be done as to this right now but the superintendent had hopes of action soon. He said 1t probably would be necessary to go to an adjoining town to secure q teacher as there is no unemployed teacher of Italian here, as far as he knows.
 File Deeds Soon
 As yet the deeds transferring the Futile property on Church street to the town have not been filed and until they are, no official cogniz- ance of the transfer can be made by the school board, in the opinion of the members. However, it Is ex- pected the deeds will be filed with in two or three weeks. The land and buildings thereon are for use by the school department. Supt. Chlttendcn said he had one or two suggestions as to the use but would Tnot make them until the town had control of the land.
 70 UtV,S, atat due to paralysis, four school days have been lost from the calendar, and 1t will be necessary to make them up. It was decided to start by eliminating a teachers visiting day scheduled on the school calen- dar for Oct. 4. There was a leeway of three days in the calendar from the number required by law but this was for rainy or bad weather when school is impossible and must be maintained, it is felt.
 Fifteen persons, of whom 10 are Naugatuckians and five Waterbur- ians, have applied for substitute work in local schools and the board expressed it's approval of them.
