Survey of City's Gran,n,ar Schools Officially Started

Waterbury's grammar school sur vey, arranged by the State Depart ment of Education, started yester- day afternoon when Maurice Ross, research associate in the depart ment, made what was described as an informal visit" to Driggs School.
 Together with Dr. Joseph Baer, director of planning and research for the, department, Mr., Ross was scheduled to visit several other schools today, the names of which have not been disclosed in advance. The visits of the two officials will be forerunners of intensive studies and investigations by a staff of edu- cation experts" who vii be sent here by the Hartford office.
 Informal Meetings First
 Dr. John c. Gilmartin, superin- tendent of schools, acknowledged today that the survey is officially underway, but said that in the early stages the visits will be made to the schools merely to have the teachers get acquainted with the survey directors. He said no re- port has been presented to the local education department on the sched- ule of visits.
 No indication has been given when the rest of the staff for the survey will come here, but 1t is ex- pected to be within 8 week. School officials estimate that it will take at least two months to complete the investigation.
 The last of a series of explanatory meetings for teachers was scheduled for today at Slocum School. MT. Baer has already held three sec- tional meetings with teachers.
 On the visit to Driggs School, MT. Ross, who is a former professor at the University of Connecticut, was reported to have conferred with the principal, John M. Brophy, and with @ group of teachers.
 Survey Requested
 The survey here was requested by local school officials, and will be similar to one conducted last Spring at high schools, although 1t will be more thorough.
 Future school planning and re- vision of district lines will be con- sidered, as well as courses of study, teaching methods, supplies, and the physical set-up. The survey was undertaken as means for uncover ing possible weaknesses in the local educational program.
 It has been reported that the State will face the expenses of con- ducting the survey, while the City will have to pay only for the print ing of the surveyors report. The ex- penses are expected to run into many thousands of dollars.

 Kenneth Geyer, general manager of the Connecticut Milk Producers Association, said the price boost was forced by competition in three adjoining states" He asserted that the move was necessary if i've want to keep what milk we've got for Connecticut consumers.
 Neither the dealers nor the farmers want to see this increase but we're caught in the middle" the C.M.P.A. official declared.
 Tomorrow's increase in the milk price will be the third which house. holders have Lad to pay since July.
