ADDED SUPPORT
FOR ENGELHARD
SCHOOL POSITION
Letters and Petitions Reveal De-
fecfion Among Citizens in
County Seat.

At short session held Tuesday
by the Hyde County Board of
Education, number of requests
and petitions were considered, and
q letter from a former Clerk of
the Court.
A petition came from the Davis
High School at Engelhard, which
called attention to the fact tina.
$4,000 had been made available
for the two negro schools in the
county, os which some $40,175 had
been made available for construc-
ton of four classrooms to the
Hyde County Training School at
Swan Quarter. It was requested
that similar sum be made avail
able for additions and improve
ments to the Davis School at En-
gelhard.
The average attendance at the
Davis School is reported as about
80 in the high school and 305 in
the elementary school. That of the
Hyde County training school al
Swan Quarter is SO in high school
and GAG elementary.
A petition was brought in
carrying 100 names, many of them
living in the Swan Quarter area
which asks the Board to drop the
idea of doing away with the En-
gelhard High School. A proposal
is now being studied by the Boart
of Education, to make one schoo
at Swan Quarter do for all the
children of the Hyde County main
land.
A letter from William /. Coch.
ran, prominent Swan Quarter citi'
zen and former Superior Court
Clerk, giving strong support K
the position of the EngelharC
school patrons. A quotation from
this letter is as follows:
Clyde County people should b.
united in their common efforts t.
provide educational facilities fol
our children. There should be nj
division-one section against an
other, one group fighting for self
ish interests. We should stanC
united with only one goal, the wei
fare of our children"
