of the cut on schools next

The Councils decision, accord
ing to Claxton, was based on
recommendations made by the
Councils financial consultant,
John F. Briggs, which contain.
ed at least five basic errors in
computation"
On the basis of an ideal class
size of 25 students, Briggs took
the total number of students in
the county kindergarten, ele-
mentary and secondary schools
and divided by Is, Claxton ex.
planned. The resulting figure,
representing the number of
teachers needed was consider
ably lower than the number
asked by the School Board.
To get an accurate figure,
Claxton said, the individual
classes should have been polled.
One class might have had Is
students, another might have
IS. The total, so, would indicate
that two teachers were needed,
when, in fact, the first class
could require one teacher, but
the second class could require
two.
An important error in the
Briggs report, the MCCPS
letter continued, resulted when
he overlooked the fact that
county teachers spend five out
of six periods a day actually
teaching and the other hour to
grade papers, consult, and plan
for the next days class. Briggs
figures, therefore, were based
on 25 students per class, per six.
period day. Or, as Claxton put
it, 1915 of the number of

to block the earlier move In
which they suggested that the
Kay site be considered as an
alternative.
Since the council turned down
the proposal to approve the site
adjacent to the church last
week, efforts to acquire the
property have been undertaken
by the Archdiocese of Washing
ton, under whose supervision
st. Bernadette's Church Is OBJ
Grated. There has been no final
report on the negotiations, how
ever.
In mentioning the Kay tract
as a possibility, Gratz told the
council the fire department has
two available plans for expand.
ing its facilities. One would be
to retain the present fire station
at -Four Corners, originally
planned for discard, and estab-
lish another, smaller station in
the Takoma Park area; the.
other would be to continue its
search for space large enough
to build a station that would
justify elimination of the Four
Corners unit.
He said he personally favors
acquisition of a tract large
enough to do away with Four
Corners, and the council went
along with him.

NEW YORK. April II (AP)
Hundreds of persons, some
on the verge of panic, were
evacuated from a Brooklyn
subway tunnel yesterday when
q fire sent dense smoke billow-
ing through two passenger
trains.
An estimated 900 persons
were trapped on the stalled
trains between stations. At
least 100 were treated at the
scene for smoke inhalation.
And nearly 100 others were
sent to hospitals for treatment.
A dozen were kept in hospitals.
Police said the fire started
about 3 pm. in the motors of
a work train near a station in
the Ridgewood section Of
Brooklyn. The work train
stopped. Immediately follow
ing were two four-car pas
senger trains. They stalled
and their lights went out.
Acrid smoke reached the
passengers.
Samuel Marco, SO, motorman
on one of the stalled trains,
said, II spoke to the passen-
gers. I said that If they would
follow me, would lead them
out to a station along the
tracks.
Many women were hyster-
ical. Many people began to
cough. I took three groups out. |"
A conductor, Harold john
son, 81, related:
when the train filled with
smoke, women passengers be-
came nervous. One woman
cried out, I'll be burned to
death" I tried to assure her
by saying, There is no fire,

The people of East Pakistan,

transportation. These are very
slow.
The government controlled
airline, Pakistan International
Airlines, started two years ago
an "air bus" service of cutrate
flights by old DC-3s to some
towns that did not have normal
air service. But too few places
had airfields. New ones cost
more than 50 million apiece.
A place for a helicopter to

cal ways to feed your hay to
livestock is give them a days
supply at a time out on pas
lures or in the feed hunks. If
you allow livestock to eat from
the hay stacks or 60 into a

this calls for some labor, but
it is a good saving in hay with

Planning Pastures for "a.
This is an ideal month and time
of year to plan your pasture pro-
gram. Remember it takes about
one-third to onehalf as much
spring pastures as it does sum-
mer and fall pastures. This
means that if you have spring
clover areas they should be fer
tiled heavier than the other
part Of the permanent pasture.
The permanent pasture n e e d S
dividing into at least three pas
ture areas for the best manage
ment even though you have the
same plants on all three areas.
If you Craze a pasture in the
summer a week to ten days and
move to another and have three
areas, you will have an ideal
management program where
each pasture area can grow
back between CRAVINGS. You
will have fewer weeds and bet
ter grass with this method.
Bulk Spreading on Pastures.
The question has come up by
many farmers, II can get bulk
