Raleigh, Oct. 13.-The Vance county
school bus rumpus has now been set
tied as far as the State School Com
mission is concerned, with the allot-
ment of an additional school bus to
the Townsville school, in the northern
part of the county some 10 miles from
Henderson and with the allotment of
additional funds to make any needed
repairs to other school buses, it was
learned from the State School Com
mission today. 1t was also pointed
out that the additional bus could have
been allotted sooner and would have
been, had the Vance County
superintendent presented the facts to
the commission and made any effort
to get the extra bus also that it was
the duty of the county superintendent
to see that all school buses are in
proper condition and that if he need
ed an extra allotment for repairs he
could also have had it without wait
ing for the grand jury to act.
There is no doubt that the Towns
Vile school bus was overcrowded, due
to an unexpectedly large enrolment,
and that it needed an additional bus,
school commission officials here
agree. The school has an average
daily attendance Of about $50 and two
buses were not sufficient, even MAX
ing two trips each. Now two of the
buses are supposed to make two trips
each and the third bus one trip, so
that the average load per trip is now
about 80 children, it was pointed out.
But if the commission had been adj
vised of the large enrolment and the
need for an additional bus, it would
have allotted it at once, commission
officials said today. Nothing was
known of this crowded condition I'M
til an article appeared in the morn
ing newspaper here in Raleigh tell
ing of alleged conditions in the Towns
vile school and insisting that more
than 70 children were being hauled
at one time in a single bus
Those here familiar with the school
situation in Vance county maintain
there has been a lot of politics in this
school bus squabble and that the
county superintendent in Vance de-
liberately sought the adverse pub
licity concerning overcrowded schoo
buses in an effort to get another bus
for the county and to make it appear
that the State School Commission
rather than himself was to blame fol
conditions. The understanding here
is that the superintendent is yer.
much opposed to the school commits
sion.
