Need for New School
Will Be Discussed
University Park Area Foce:
Influx Of Children

The need for a new school in the
University Park area to care for the
expected influx of children from the
500 homes now under construction
by the Alley Dwelling Authority on
the Calvert estate just outside
Riverdale will be discussed at q
meeting of the Prince Georges
County Board of Education Tuesday
in Upper Marlboro.
Supt. OF Schools Nicholas Orem
said preliminary investigation had
been made yesterday at the request
OF William A. Carson, president OF
the Board of County Commissioners
/ The investigation showed present
facilities of the three schools in the
area would be insufficient to care
for the approximately 300 children
expected to come from the ADA
homes, Mr.. Orem said.
The University Park school is SO
overcrowded that classes are being
held in the basement, Mr.. Orem de-
clared. The Riverdale school also is
full, while the College Park school,
has only one vacant class room.
Application for a certificate OF
necessity must be filed with the
Office Of Education in order to OBJ
tain Lanham Act funds for con-
struction of an additional school in
the area, Mr.. Otem explained.
If the School Board decides to
file such an application, he added
1t will seek funds for a school to
house 300 children.

Hit by Commissioner

challenge to the municipal govern
ment over. the means adopted for en-

said:
"Mr. Miller and his group favored
the proposed amendments to the
fire regulations for everybody but
Mr.. Miller and the rooming house

He and the rooming house group
operators know, or should know, the
hazards that result from overcrowd-
ing and that there are regulations
governing such overcrowding, par
ticularly with reference to IRE
hazards.
Promises Enforcement.
IF their philosophy Is one to take
a chance and possibly to burn up
some of their roomers, that is mat
ter between them and their own
consciences. The Commissioners do
not follow this theory or philosophy,
The regulations will be enforced.
"As to the return of fees (the city
heads had announced there would
be return of fees paid by land
lords whose applications for licenses
had been denieO if he regards them
as too hot to handle that is his
funeral"
The case goes back to the order
of the Commissioners, April S deny
ing applications by 1880 operators Of
boarding, rooming, lodging and
apartment houses and directing that
they be warned they faced prosecu-
ton If they continued to operate
without a license.
