When German air raiders rained
above, was endangered when one {
Square. The bomb, Of the delayed
brush himself and as consequence
lost the bus, not going to school
that day. Mr.. Mai said the trouble
is that the boa>< Is putting re-
sponsibiliity on the small children
who. are too young to know enough
about it. The buses are cluttering
up the road in the center of Mill
vile, he said, and constitute a traf-
fic problem.
Supervision Problem
Mr.. Peck said his daughter came
home with one tooth knocked out
and another loosened because some
boys playing football during the
noon hour crashed into her. Where
is that perfect supervision they as
sured us we would get" he asked.
Mr.. Kenishea suggested that Peck
take his daughter to Supt. Chitten-
den and ask him to pay for the
dental care.
1t was reported that one condition
concerning the buses has been cor
rected. 1t was claimed last night
that occasionally pupils on the high
school bus had to stand or get on
the running board because seats were
taken by paying adult passengers,
but a notice has been posted now
that no paying adult passengers will
be permitted in this bus when high
school pupils are being taken to
or from school, it was said.
Says Place Forbidden
Albert Mai said children of Mill
vile have been ordered not to- play
on the school green because their
noise disturbS a neighDor who sleeps
during the day. This is the only
public spot for the youngsters to
play as there is a ball-field in Mill
vile, but it Is privately owned. He
asked if the town Is going to give
Millville residents public play
ground If the children are barred
from playing on the school green.
One woman said that playing on
this green makes the children safer
than If they were roaming the
streets.
Mr.. Mai read copies Of the letters
sent the State Board Of Education
and Warden John j. Sheridan. The
letters were mailed Sept. II. The let
ter to DR.. Alonzo Grace, commits
sioner Of the State Board of Edu-
cation, reviews the action on clos
ing the school, asserts that since
the schools were closed, everything
has been confusion concerning bus
transportation, classes, etc., and now
parents Of children in the inside
district have become concerned"
It adds, "Six members of the
board have deemed it their privilege
to lay aside the opinions of some
200 citizens, the parents Of some SO
children included"
It requests Mr.. Grace or his rep
resentative to come to Naugatuck
and meet with Warden Sheridan,
the Board Of Education and the pro-
testers committee and go over the
entire situation. 1t stresses it is
serious mater, Involving as it does
