horse cars used there"

First Negro Students
To Enter Gonzaga
After 7 Pass Exams

Gonzaga High School will admit
two colored boys to classes this
fall, the first time In the history
of the Catholic school that Ne
groes have enrolled.
The Rev. William r. Graham.
S. j., headmaster at Gonzaga, said
the school never had policy
which refused colored boys admis-
sion. He said that last May five
colored boys took the entrance
examination and two of them
passed and were accepted.
The colored boys. who will reg
lister with other freshmen next
Tuesday. are Maurice Andrews,
IA, of TOT First.-street NV. and
Richard w. Saunders, IA, Of l116
Eighth street NE.
Father Graham said he could
think of no specific reason why
the Negroes should have applied
this year and thinks the reason
none have ever applied before Is
that it was not generally known
they would be accepted. if quail
fed.
Two Schools Have Taken Step.
AS far as could be learned last
night, Gonzaga is the only Catholic
school, with the exception of st.
Paul's Academy, which had one
colored student last year. that has
made the step toward interracial
schooling. 1e. s'stftt
For instance, St. Johns High
School, another well-known Cath
olic secondary school, reported
that no Negroes had applied this
year and that none had ever been
enrolled. But as far as could be
determined, there was no policy
which would bar colored boys from
entering if qualified, a spokesman
said.
The Washington archdiocese has
no policy on the racial issue, it was
explained. It is a matter which
has been left up to the individual
school to decide. Queries of the
individual schools brought the
answer that there is no policy
which would bar Negroes.
Colleges Accept Negroes.
Catholic University has ac-
cepted Negroes for a number of
years and other Catholic colleges
in the area, including Trinity COL
lege, Georgetown University and
Dunbarton College of Holy Cross,
have admitted Negroes.
The Catholic Church has four
colored parochial schools in the
Washington area which serve col
ored parishes. ...'
One source said that colored
boys and girls were applying for
admittance to a number of the
Catholic grade and secondary
schools this year. But as far as
he knew, Gonzaga was the only
one so far which actually had
admitted colored youths.

juvenile circulation, the report
said, major emphasis Is given to
adults. 1t was pointed out that 78
per cent of the 161.505 registered
readers are adults: SO per cent of
the 778,477 volumes in the book
collection are for adult use, and
about 70 per cent of the annual
book appropriation is used to buy
books for adults.
Present plans were cited for de-
velopment of the Group Reading
Program with other community
organizations SO that the library
may concentrate its efforts on
group guidance and leader train
ing.
The report said also it was
hoped that funds could be OBJ
tanned to provide a complete
service for young adults on a full
time schedule. This service is de-
signed to meet the unusual re-
quirements of adolescents.
Conjecturing about future use
Of the library facilities, the re-
port touched on the question OF
television. 1t noted that accord
ing to one survey. family reads
approximately 80 per cent less
when a television set first is in
stalled, and later there is a level
ing off to about Is per cent less
reading.
Tuition Lessons Enrolment
Indications were noted also in
some areas of Washington that
higher tuition rates charged for
non-residents in local schools may
cause a falling off in enrolment.
particularly in the high school
level
This may tend to offset the
increase anticipated in the lower
grade school levels, the report
said.
Even more significant, so fas as
the circulation of books for home
reading is concerned, is the
marked trend away from recre-
ational reading noticed through
out the country" it was added.
Branch librarians and other staff
members have commented on the
fact that readers formerly sought
recreational reading much more
than they do now."
A general housekeeping occa-
stoned by progress of the open
shelf arrangement for books and
replacement of bound newspapers
by microfilm copies has made
available a considerable amount
OF storage space in the stacks. but
additional facilities for Central
Library services will be needed,
the report said.
The area of the new main Ii
brary building occupied by the
Federal Government has been re-
duced gradually from a total of
$4,000 square feet to 1881 square
feet as of March l, it was reported.
The relinquished floors reverted in
part to the library, but during the
last year. the Commissioners as
signed most of the second floor
to several District Government
agencies.

Illegal Arrests Free
Two Men Seized as
Numbers Writers

For the second time in two
days, the United States Attorneys
Office yesterday refused to prose-
cute lottery suspect on grounds
the arrest was illegal because
police did not have warrants or
see any crime actually committed.
Freed yesterday by the order of
Assistant United States Attorney
Harold Bacon and Charles u.
Adds, 81, of the 1400 block of
Oglethorpe street NV. He had
been under 81 500 bond since Fri
day afternoon when police booked
him as operating a lottery and
possessing number slips.
About the time he was arrest
ed, vice squad detectives were be-
ing told by Assistant Attorney
Warren Wilson that their arrest
the preceding day of Theodore E.
Meekins, A. of the 800 block of
Otis place NV, was illegal. For
that reason, Mr.. Wilson said. he
had to drop similar charges
against Meekins.
Arrested in Alley.
Adds arrest by two cruiser
policemen of the Eighth Precinct
was made in an alley rear of the
2700 block of Connecticut avenue
NV.
Pvts. Everett Sadler and Wayne
Hostetler reported they were
cruising in the vicinity OF the
Wardman Park Hotel when they
spotted Adds dniving his car into
the alley.
They said he emerged from the
car, and that when he caught
sight of them he stuffed" a memo
pad into his shirt pocket and
walked "hurriedly" away. The
policemen said they stopped him,
relieved him of the memo pad
which contained amounts and
code numbers" as we'll as a card
containing numbers odds. A search
of his car revealed numbers slips
cached in an envelope under a
sun visor, they added.
Report Both Have Records.
The two policemen admitted
that they failed to see Adds COM
NIT any ofTense. They added they
had no warrant either for his
arrest or search as required by
law.
Meekins' arrest the day before
was made under similar circum-
stances. The vice squad detec-
tives arrested him and recovered
numbers slips after searching his
car near his home without wit
Messing any offense and without
serving any warrant.
Police reported Meekins has
been convicted twice on numbers
charges. Prosecutor Bacon said
that police told him Adds has
been convicted once for numbers
slips possession.

District Officials Study
Cost Of Eliminating
Smoke al Us Schools

District officials are making pre-
liminary studies to determine the
cost of moderniing heating plants
in approximately 125 school build
ings here to eliminate the smoke
nuisance, it was disclosed yester-
day.
Director of Construction Archie
Hutson will prepare an estimate
from a list being compiled by H.
Kenneth Kugel. chief engineer OF
smoke regulation and boiler in
spection, of corrections in the
buildings which should be made.
The estimate will be forwarded
to the Board of Education.
Expense Involved.
Any program to bring the school
buildings in line with the city's
smoke regulations necessarily
would be spread over a period of
years. officials explained, because
of the expense of installing me-
chanical fuel-burning equipment.
For that reason, Mr.. KugeIs list
will be arranged in priority groups.
Schools built since 1886 and
those in which boilers have been
replaced have been equipped to
operate within the regulations pro-
hibiting emission of dense smoke.
approximately 1872, however,
still have hand-fired equipment,
and of these, about 125 are ex-
pected to be continued in use for
five years or more. =.
Dividends Seen Over Years.
Mr.. Kugel said that aside from
the smoke nuisance. installation
of modern heating equipment
would pay dividends over the years
in fuel saving, convenience and
temperature regulation.
He added that District officials
realize the city government should
not lag behind private industry,
either from the smoke standpoint
or that of the efficient use of fuel.
The problem has been under
consideration for some time and
various complaints have been
lodged about The smoke nuisance.
Mr.. Kugel said that this spring
with the cooperation of school
officials, discussions and demon
strations were held for school en-
gineers and f1remen with a view
toward bringing better results
with present equipment.
