Nine Bus Companies

/ U. S. Route at Baltimore
boulevard. and the West Virginia
Transportation Co.. which links
Fort Meade, Laurel and the
B & o. station there.
/ Capital Transit offers the only
street car service. This runs
from Potomac Park in downtown
Washington to Mount Rainier
Hyattsville. Riverdale. College
Park and Branchville. Most CTC
buslines feed into this carline OF
to bus transfer terminals at the
District line.
One of the major problems
concerning public transportation
which confronts the county Is

Co. after August Is. when Its
franchise is scheduled to expire
Employees Own Firm

Itinue etc or unless it's success
Sor elects to serve Prince Georges,
those sections now depending on
Capital Transit may be left with
out service.
But the VIVA Transit Co.
which already carries some 49,
600 passengers daily via its SO
buses. says no one will be left
stranded.
Roy Chew, board chairman of
this employe-owned company
said his firm would expand its
/ service to take up the slack and
predicted there might even be
a co-ordinated agreement with
Suburban Transit, whose prin-
icipal business lies in Montgom-
cry County.
The VIVA company. which
runs limited express service from
the District line to its downtown
terminus at Eleventh and Penn
lsylvania avenue NV. says it il
here to stay" despite it's re.
ported financial difficulties. The
firm recently asked the county
commissioners to write off some
$4,000 in delinquent utility
taxes. saying the delinquencieS
were there already when the en-
ployes bought out the company
in February of last year. Mr.
Chew said the company took this
step in order to get its "own
house in order"

SAB Million in Schools
Projected Since 1945

School is ready. and In the
District Nights and Forestville
areas.
The county's rapid growth is
reflected in the rising school en-
rollment through the years. In
l940-41. the county had only
17,144 pupils in 396 classrooms
BY 1948-49, the total had jumped
to 24.364 in 705 classrooms.
Since then. the enrolment has
increased from 1000 to 4,000l
each year. This years 49.777
pupils are using 1901 classrooms.
AS of December 81, besides
2,l58 pupils listed then on double
shifts, another 536 were pupils
attending classes in rented quar-
tiers, 1858 were those in make
shift quarters. and 7,777 were in
what were considered over
crowded classrooms.
School officials have estimated
future enrolment totals through
1923. which they say are only
conservative estimates based
on live births" as recorded for
Prince Georges County and rep
resenting deductions for gradu-
ations each year.
They are: 1867. $3.50;
1878, 59.207; 1889, 62,966:
.1959-6o, 67.O5l; 1861. 71.OS1;
1852, $4,000, and 1923. 3D.
962. All this is for public schools
only and does not include private
and parochial schools.
The county now has 1900
teachers. $40 of them with emer-
gency certificates only. They will
get from 5000 to $500 in pay
raises for the next fiscal year.
Costs Reported
School officials estimate the
average cost per pupil IN 1886
was $200.39 for those in elemen-
tary schools and $259.32 for Sec
ondary schools.
The nearly $43-million school
construction program includes all

the spring of 1857. Those under

In addition, sites have been
reserved or are owned outright
totalling more than 2l4 acres
in ii different areas OF the
county. These would provide for
future construction of seven
more elementary schools. four
junior highs and two senior high
schools.
Prince Georges officials aren't
alone, Of course. in facing the
school problem. On a Nation
wide basis. they point out. over
$4,000 children face part-time
school because Of inadequate &C
commodations and national en-
rollment is expected to exceed

Prince Georges County is
served by nine different bus COM
panIes. one streetcar line and
two railroads.
For the most part, they all
lead into downtown Washington
or to connections going there
It's a different story. however
for cross-country transportation
Except for limited intra- coun-
ty bus travel in the northwestern
suburbs of the county. the only
way to get from one side of the
county to the other is by private
car-or by going into Washing
ton and then back out again.
The bulk of the travel. other
than by auto, is provided by the
Capital Transit Co. and the
WM&A Transit Co. etc gen.

area west and north of the Penn

provides service from the rail-
road to the Potomac River. ..

Prince Georges County has
provided over LOO new public
school classrooms in the last Is
years in an effort to keep pace
with an enrolment which jumped
in that period from 17,144 to
49.777
The county is trying to keep
pace, though it isn't an easy
task. New developments spring
up faster than new schools are
built.
Since 1945 the county has
spent or authorized almost SAB
million for school construction
alone: yet some pupils still are on
double shifts, others are in over
crowded classrooms. What's
more, the situation may continue
unimproved or even get worse.
Even with 81 new schools or
additions now under construc-
ton. school officials say there
won't be sufficient facilities to
meet all demands. They already
are mapping plans for further
school building programs. The big
obstacle is finding the money to
pay for them.
The county's bonded indebt-
edness has just about reached its
peak, but school officials say
they could use $40 million year
for the next six years to keep
up with county development.
Even with some of the bonds
maturing each year with possible
continued increases annually in
the county's assessahle base. it
is apparent that additional out
side help from the State and
Federal Government will be nee
essary, officials report.
Grants Are Included
The $42,786,288 which the
county has spent or authorized
for school construction since the
end of World War II included
Federal grants totalling $685.
532 and State grants totalling
81 .828,756.
OF the remainder, $26, 450, 900
represents county bond issues.
The other $7,649,000 resulted
from State loans which have
to be repaid by the county.
Prince Georges now has a
total of l03 schools--85 elemen-
tary and 10 secondary.
When the school year started
last September. 2.20S pupils were
on double shifts. This double
shift total has since been cut to
$50 by the completion Of sew
eral projects, with no further
reductions in sight before the
next school year.
School Supt. william S.
Schmidt saio other completed
school projects would wipe out
that number on double shifts.
but added that new problems
would arise with the anticipated
increased enrolment next year
of some $500 more pupils.

BILE shifts next year won't exceed
