 It was brought out that Miss Louise Grainger of the Naugatuck high school faculty gets above the maximum. This was the result of action taken 15 years ago, MT. Chit tenden said, in view of special duties. Her pay under the approved schedule will be $2,310.
 Much time was given to the dis cussion of mathematics for high school students with several board members taking the stand.
 Dr. Curran, who is also a member of Selective Service Board IA A, pre- dicted that the war will last at least two years more ana asked if the curriculum could be changed to pro- vide mathematics for most pupils.
 MT. Chittenden said he expected the curriculum would be changed soon, possibly on recommendation of the War Department or the state board of education. But he remind- ed that of the incoming class next fall, maximum of 207, 80 or 90 will take the college course, which pro- vides for advanced mathematics
 The board voted to dispense with it's July and August sessions unless business of importance arises, if so the chairman will call special meeting.

Naugatuck, June 4-Aat meeting of the board of education Thursday, action was taken that will result in pay increases for 19 employees of the school department, including teach CTS and janitors.
 The list of teachers and salaries for the next school year was ap- proved by the board. Supt. of Schools Harold E. Chittenden said the list provides automatic increases which amount to a maximum of $1o0, for teachers who are under the maximum pay. Some teachers, he said, who are under the maximum will not get full $100 as this amount would bring them over the top pay. These will get only enough to bring them up to the maximum.
 The teachers affected, before the board made other changes, were: High school - Misses Madeline Caine, Helen Dinneny, Martha Johnson, Estelle and Helen McDon- ough, Leona O'Neill, Mrs. Anna Gib- bud, Mrs. Mary Penrose, Henry Cieslewski, Raymond K. Foley, James T. Leary; Salem school, Mrs. Dorothy Calvin; Hop Brook, Alice Hickey.
 After some discussion the board increased the maximum pay of Miss Eleanor BroadWrick, home econom- ics teacher, by $1o0, making it $1,- 970.
 The board also raised the weekly pay of William Stahl, Oak St. school ianitor, from $13.20 to $15 and voted to increase the wages of Michael Dolan, Prospect St. janitor, Patrick McKeon, Central avenue janitor, and Edward Carlson, Hop Brook jan1tor, from $1,716 to $500.
 In explaining the provision for automatic increases for teachers under the maximum, Supt. Chitten- den said the grammar school maxi mum is $1,870; for women teachers in the high school, $2,20O; and for male high school teachers, $2,86O. This he said, is based on the pre-
