 President Roosevelt said today that the government did not want to take over the Federal Shipbuild- ing and Drydock Company's strike bound Kearny, N. J., plant if it could possibly be avoided. With conferences still continuing, union officials expressed hope of getting back to work by Monday night. Conferences in both the Kearny and Detroit traction strike con- tinued without the slightest indi- cation of an agreement between the strikers and managements, however.
 Labor unrest continued in other sections of the country.

 The Army has used huskies be- fore-on Alaskan patrols-but never to the extent they will be necessary n Iceland and Greenland.
 Two phases of the husky train ing are innovations. There being TO snow in New Hampshire now. the trainers devised sled" on wheels. with constant pressure brakes that simulate the pull of a sled through snow. The reason for the other innovation is a little more obscure. They are training the lead dogs to obey the commands gee" and "haw." Perhaps they are plan ming to recruit the dog sled hand lers from the ranks of the mule skinners.

Commercial Salmon Take There to Wind-Up
 Monday Night

Salmon fishing in sunni TT Straits, which was to have closed at pm. today, has been extend- ed until pm. Monday, August 25, it was announced today by the Fisheries Division of the Fish and Wildlife Service here.
 The three-day extension of the season will actually mean only 36 hours more of fishing, J. Steele Culbertson, Assis ant Fisheries Management Supervisor, explained, due to the 36-hour closing period during the weekend.
 The extension of the season came from Washington, D. C., as a re- suit of a recommendation by the local office, it was understood. It is prompted by the heavy late run of pink salmon in the district.

History of
Oakland High School

Garrett county was formed from
the western part of Allegany county
by an act of the General Assembly of
Maryland passed April /, 1872, and
ratified by vote of the people at tba
election held on November 5, 1872.
This division was necessary because
Allegany county officials found it was
too expensive and too difficult to col
lect taxes, summon witnesses, and
regulate other matters in the remote
and undeveloped parts of the county.
Three places-Oakland, McHenry
and Grantsville-bid for the county
seat The people selected Oakland as
the county seat, and from that time
on Oakland has become the CONNER
cial center of the county.
In 1873, the Board of Education
was organized for the purpose of con-
trolling the schools of Garrett county.
In 1900, Edward A. Browning was
appointed superintendent of Garrett
county schools, and served until 1912.
On August /, 1912, Franklin E. Rath-
bun was appointed superintendent of
schools to fill the vacancy of Edward
A. Browning. Much credit is due Mr.
Rathbun for the present high stand
ing of the county. Mr.. Rathbun has
held the office as county superinten-
dent for the past % years, and dur
ing this long period of service, he has
been of inestimable value to Garrett
county. The present Board of Educa-
tion, with Walter w. Dawson, presi-
dent; Walter w. Savage, vice-presi
dent, and Stuart F. Hamill, associate
member, has given Mr.. Rathbun its
strong support along with Mr. Foster
D. Bittle, present principal of Oakland
high school, who has served since
1880, thus helping to further, with
great rapidity, Garrett county's ad-
vance into educational fields.
In 1877, Burton and Bush was
awarded contract for the erection
of court house by the County Com
missioners. This building was built on
a hill overlooking the business section
of the town.
A Jail of red brick was erected at
the rear of the court house at the
same time. This building was after
wards bought, remodeled and succeed
by Mrs Nellie Maffett.
In 1904, the Oakland high school
was organized and held its classes in
a building where the Oakland elemen-
tary school is located with Maurice
X. Turner as principal, and Mr. Rath-
bun assistant principal.
The first graduates of Oakland
high school were Mrs. Nell Stemple,
who is at present an active member
of the Parent Teachers Association;
Mrs. Mabel Sollars, who is now teach
ing in the Crellin school, and Miss
Ethel May Wilt, who met with an un-
fortunate accident about 10 years ago.
The Republican., 1941-04-17

This bill provides for $250,000.00 to
be borrowed by the County Commits
sioners, and to issue bonds, therefore
for the construction of a new high
school at Oakland. The bill will be
presented to the people for their ap-
proval either at special congression-
al election or at the general election
1t is planned in such a manner that
the bonds will be paid back at the rate
of $15,000.00 per year, which means
no additional increases in taxes, be-
cause $15,000.00 per year can be paid
out of the present fund.
There is just one thing l want you
to note, bill was passed for Acct
dent, with referendum, providing
for $40,00O.OO, which means an in
crease in county taxes in order that
it may be paid back in one year.
In Maryland there are two county
seats with high schools having in
adequate facilities and overcrowded
conditions. They are Chestertown and
Oakland. (There is movement on in
Chestertown to get a new high
school)
Should not the civic pride of all the
citizens of Garrett county demand a
modern high school instead of using
building portion of which was con-
demned years ago. This building is
far from adequate as a high school
building.
The following high school centers
in Garrett county have had high
schools built within the past twenty
or so years: Grantsville had a new
addition built three or four years
ago. Kitzmiller had a new high school
building constructed a few years ago
Accident, which is a comparatively
new building, has had $4,000 ap-
propriated to build an addition The
bill providing for the $4,000 for Ac-
cident, incidentally, did not have a
referendum on it.
In view of the facts relative to the
other high schools of the county sure
ly the voters of those communities
will not deprive the Oakland High
school community which consists of
nearly one-half the people of Garrett
county her just dues so far as new
high school is concerned.
A question which might justly be
asked is what to do with the old
building if new high school is built.
There are several possible answers to
that question. The newer portions of
the building might be used for hos
pital for Garrett county. DR.. H. R.
DuPuy, county health officer, in a
letter to the editor in The Republican,
issue of April 10, states such need.
another answer is, use the building
for the much needed office space for
various governmental agencies in the
county. For example, the Board of
Education offices are crowded The
trcasurer's office is also very
crowded. The Welfare Board is rent
ing offices in the First National Bank
building. The Oakland Library uses
space in the Garrett National Bank
The Republican., 1941-04-17

The above three mentioned graduated
in 1908.
In 1910, Oakland high school was
transferred to the old court house
and in 1917 the school was damaged
by a storm. The Oakland high pupils
then had classes in the present
Knights of Pythias building.
Due to the fact that the building
was not large enough to accommodate
the enrolment, a front wing was add
ed to the school in the year of 1918
AS the school would accommodate ap-
proximately 200 pupils, no further
| improvements were necessary until
1929. Due to the fact that the enroll
ment grew to approximately 300, a
rear wing was added, and the Maffett
property bought for the purpose of
accommodating more pupils. With
this big improvement the people of
Oakland felt that they had space
enough for all the years to come, but
in 1886 the John Shartzer property
was bought, and a home economics
building erected. The year 1889 rolled
around and still they didn't have
enough room, so they established the
industrial arts in the upstairs of the
NYA building.
Up to the present time, outlaying
expenditures have amounted to the
sum of $1O5,651.39. This makes an
average cost per year of $3,018.62,
which is very small sum.
conditions of Oakland high
school, put into common words, are
terrible. By this we mean that six
hundred pupils have to pass six times
a day in corridors ranging from four
to six feet wide. During assembly, six
hundred pupils would have to seat
themselves in an auditorium 60 by 81
feet but, due to the fact that they
cannot, assemblies are divided. Also
the school library is only 10 by Is
feet, which makes it possible for only
study hall students to use the library
during the current day.
When a physical education class is
practicing basketball in the auditor
ium, the study hall pupils downstairs
watch the lights dance backward anc
forward, expecting any minute for the
light shades to fall off. A few have

the NYA boys climb on the roof tC
