To Conduct Survey

FALLS CHURCH, Va. April IL
Preliminary steps toward solving
the school problems of the Falls
Church area were taken last night
at a meeting of town and Fairfax
County authorities.
Chairman C. l.. Shotwell of the
Falls Church School Board. who
presided, said two basic facts were
recognized by the conferees:
l. Fairfax County needs additional
ing due to heavy population in
creaSes.
2. Falls Church needs more pupils,
especially in jefferson High School,
to provide the school population re-
Quired to institute more compre-
hensive curriculum.
Committee Named.
To coordinate school planning OF
the two Jurisdictions. four member
committee was named to conduct a
survey of the towns urban area.
Those named are: Mr.. Shotwell and
Mayor B. N. Gibson, representing
Falls Church, and Chairman Fred
Robinson of the Fairfax County
School Board and Chairman Wallace
Carper of the county Board of
Supervisors, representing the county.
The committee is to consult John
A. K. Donovan, town attorney; Paul
Brown. commemorative attorney,
and w. T. Woodson, county super
intendent of schools, in its delibera-
tions.
In determining basis on which
the town and county may get to-
gether, the committee will seek to
determine how many pupils in the
area Immediately surrounding Falls
Church might be enrolled more ad-
vantageously in the town schools
Due to the fact that Falls Church
has a separate school district, the
county now transports these pupils
away from adjacent town schools to
crowded county schools
Meeting Harmonious.
Mr.. Shotwell stressed that last
nights meeting was harmonious and
both sides indicated willingness
to make concessions in the interests
of better school facilities for resi-
dents both in and near Falls Church.
Attending the meeting were men,
bers of both town and county school
boards, Chairman Ada Fowler and
other members of the Town Councils S
special School Committee, Mr. Wood
son and the clerks of both the Town
Council and the county Board of
Supervisors.
