situation will be completely changed in a few years. Of the S2 clement ary schools, g show decreases, 8 increases, and one exhibits no change when compared with October figures of 1886. Driggs shows the heaviest loss with a drop of 5A pu- pills, Sprague the largest gain with an increase of 26.
 Kindergarten Gains
 "A change in the entering age this fall brought an increase of GA pupils to the kindergarten and 57 to grade 1. Even with these figures in- cluded, the kindergartens have only 20 more pupils than in 1sS6 while the first grades actually show Q loss of 20. Remembering that the change of rule referred to above permitted the entrance of children on thir- teen month basis, we may conclude that, on reverting to @ twelve month period next year, little if any ila- crease in enrolment may be ex- pected.
 "The total enrolment Of elemen- tary and secondary schools tS l5,495 as compared with l5,745 m 1886 and 16,17l in 1885, showing e decrease of 250 over last year and Q loss of 676 during the past two years.
 MT. Gilmartin, director of eve ming schools, reports Q total of 1,545 pupils distributed as follows: High school classes 1,16S; Americaniza- ton classes Sl3; Continuation classes 64."

CHILD ACTOR TO
 GET BIG SALARY
Freddie Bartholomew Will Receive $9S,OOO Per
 Year in Envelope

Hollywood, Oct. 19--(UP)-Freddie Bartholomew's salary was doubled today, raised to $oe,O0O @ year, and he was scampering around his movie studio celebrating his new fortune.
 But fortune to him meant that his producer, Louis B. Mayer, had raised his spending money allowance from five cents q day to q weekly, and that was why he celebrated.
 The movies 14- year = old Little Lord Fauntleroy waved his first weeks banlInote, the first one he ever had to spend, and he was eS- tirnating what it would buy in the way of ice cream and trinkets.
 He had only a vague idea of the settlement arranged between metro Goldwyn Mayer studio and his guardian aunt, Miss Myllicent Bar tholomew, over his salary.
 Personal Contract
 His deal with Mayer for his spending money was a personal contract" not involved in the salary dispute.
 Judge Clement L. shinn approved the new contract paying Freddie 5000 weekly for 10 weeks a year, and 5000 weekly for six weeks while he is on 6 personal appearance tour.
 The old contract paid $1,100 for 40 weeks a year, and his aunt had threatened to end his career and return him. to school in England because he could not save anything from that sum.
 When the new contract expires in two years the studio has an option on Freddie for another two years. His pay will shrink to $l,250 a week, however. By that time Freddie will be in the awkward stage" and un- able to play his present "cute boy" roles.

 New Glasses
 New Items call for the establish ment of a class in plumbing at Leavenworth High school to be opened for the l937-38 school year, this neceSsitating $500 for equip lnent. In addition there are to be two more classes next year for the mentally deficient for which $7So is needed for equipment and $2,24O for teachers salaries.
 Due to the fact that $23, 750 has been listed to meet repairs on build- ings, this amount being several thousand dollars more than last year, 1t was stated to Burton Wal ker by John J. Walsh, chairman, that 1t would be impossible to add more so that the Hopevllle pool might be reopened.
 Appointments
 Another Leavenworth High school teacher was named by the board yesterday. Miss Mary P. Casey, graduate of Notre Dame Academy and the College of New Rochelle, was appointed to the English and Science Department. Ellery Kilbourn of the Leavenworth staff was advanced to head of the mathematics department.
 The committee on teachers re- port was as follows:
 '"The resignation of Louise V. Meo, teacher in the grades, was accepted, and Adeline Rizzolo was transferred from Grade 5, language, in Barnard school to Grade s in Webster school.
 Julia Bannon was transferred from telephone operator to stenog- rapher in the school department headquarters and Cornelia Sciullo was appointed telephone operator, to fill the vacancy caused by the reSig- nation of Lucy Diorio."
 Superintendent T. J. Condon re- ported that the final checkup on fall enrolment showed & small gain in the high schools but siSable drop in the grammar schools, with the indication that the high school population will drop as soon as the prtsent senior and junior classes arc graduated, His report Is as fol. lows:
 Crosby Loses
 "The total high school enrolment exclusive of post-graduates is 4,45s, a gain of 72 over figures of 1886. Crosby shows a loss of 77 while LeaVenworth and Wilby have gains of l38 and II respectively. Fresh man and senior classes are smaller than last year, sophomore and junior classes larger. From the above figures, a gradual reduction may be looked for during the coni- ing months. Disregarding failures, we find the freshman class of 1886 reduced by 254 in the sophomore group this fall, the sophomore class by 200 In the junior group and the junior class by 160 in the senior group. If we again disregard fail- ures, this mortality may be attribut- cd largely to the fact that many pupils prefer work to study and leave school upon reaching the age of sixteen.
