To Aid Russian
War Relief Fund

A Russian War Relief Dance
will be held Saturday night, Sep
tember 10, in the auditorium, un-
der the sponsorship of the Green
belt Citizens Association. All
profits obtained from the dance
will be turned over to the Russian
War Relief, Inc, as Greenbelt's
contribution to the quota of $780,
600 assigned the Washington area
in the current drive to swell the
Russian War Relief Fund. The
decision to dedicate the proceeds
OF the dance for this purpose was
srHa6e by the eyecs,st;ye. committee
of the association after a letter
in behalf Of the cause addressed
to the Town Council was referred
to it.
Jim Smith, chairman of the or
ganization's ways and means COM
mittee, is scouting around for a
suitable band. The one selected
will be announced in next weeks
Cooperator. Additional entertain
ment and refreshments are also
being planned.
Radio Publicity
A strong publicity campaign is
being developed in order to obtain
a fine turnout. Most of the morn
ing radio programs in the vicinity
will announce the affair during the
coming week and On the day itself.
A descriptive movie short, with
commentator by Quenton Reyn-
olds, explaining the need for citi-
zen contributions to the fund, will
probably be shown at the local the
ater. Arrangements for securing
this picture are now being COM
pleted. Posters will publicize the
dance in Berwyn and College Park,
as well as in Greenbelt.
Tickets are to cost so cents each
and will soon be on sale.
"We hope Greenbelt's contribu-
tion to this most worthy cause will
be a sizable one," said Stanley Ost-
ler, Association president. "The
Russians are fighting our war
right now, as we'll as their own,
and they desperately need all the
assistance we can give them, in
Guiding ammunition, medical at
tention and food if they are to
carry on"

Funds Are Available

1t is understood that funds are
available for the construction of
the towns second elementary
school and for enlarging Green
belt High School. Bids have been
received after long delays, and the
contracts are ready to be awarded.
WPB, charged with the duty of
conserving building materials, re-
fuses to permit fulflment of pres
ent plans until further justification
is shown.
Double the present student ca
pacity, suggested as the point at
which over-crowding would merit
further attention by WPB, would
be 900 boys and girls in the ele-
mentary grades. With the open
ing of school this week complete
figures of enrolment should be
available in a few days. The i'm
minent arrival of additional resi-
dents to occupy the remainder of
the new defense houses is expected
to increase enrolment significantly
by the end of the year.
w~psg Increase Seen
In commenting upon the diff
Guilty of determining at this time
the sizes'of school enrolment by
the endfof the year Mr.. Braden
said, "Tt Tsi expected that within
another week 244- of. these new
homes wilf'B Be ready, and that the
balance Will follow within d short
period of tihae until the entire 704
additional defense homes are oc-
cupied. The entire group may be
filled by December l." This is
expected to push the number of
students well over the 200 per cent
of capacity mark in both the grade
and the high school.
Two Shifts Probable
Although there are several al
ternatives which might be used in
the present crisis, it is believed
that two shifts of students with
the present buildings, furnishings
and teachers presents the least OBJ
jectionable arrangements. 1t is
admitted that this will place an
added burden upon parents, the
children, teachers, and janitors.
In connection with the latter there
will have to be cleaning services
hurriedly applied between shifts.
Although school authorities are
working on plans for a double
shift arrangement many problems
remain to be sol ed.
An additional complication, Mr..
proIoD frIl %bo
found in the shortage of meeting
space for civic organizations and
community activities. "In most
towns the size of Greenbelt there
are halls, churches, and other pub
lie meeting PAGES that can be util-
lied, but here we have orly one
place for all our social, religious,
educational, and recreational ac-
tivities," he exllalaed.
Announced in January
First public announcement that
Greenbelt would have new schools
to match the new houses was
made in January. At that time
an appropriation of $450,000 was
authorized by the Federal Works
Agency at the suggestion of Farm
Security Administration The new
school was to be located in the
new area of homes between North
way and Research Road. 1t was
to have a combined gymnasium
and auditorium, and 16 classrooms
to accommodate about 500 stu
dents.
Six new rooms and a gymnasium
were to have been added to Green

Better Organized

Better Organized
Contrasted with previous sal
wage drives in Greenbelt-the one
for old aluminium and the more
extended one for waste paper-the
present plans are more completely
organized. The first rubber collec-
tion which ended in July probably
cleared most of that scrap, it was
acknowledged by present salvage
heads. but it is thought that more
has accumulated since then, and
that additional sources may be
tapped now.
Procedures are simple for next
weeks drive. Residents are asked
to bring to the collection depot in
the Shopping Center all metal and
rubber scrap which can be carried.
Pieces Or collections weighing too
much to be carried will be COL
lected by notifying Mr.. Rysticken
or calling Greenbelt 2771. Town
trucks will be used toatransport the
heavy loads to the a center.

Mr.. Rysticken reveals that town

cleaning up scrap from the ware

woods. Boy Scouts and others will
be asked to comb the countryside
around the town.
