LONGER SCHOOL DAY
PLAN STIRS PROTEST
Principals Will Ask Joint Com
mittee to Reject Re
vised Schedule
Principals of the Philadelphia high
schools will petition the joint commit
tee of higher schools this week not to
adopt the proposed revision of schedules
which would Increaso the time spent by
pupils In high school by three-quarters
of an hour dally.
The chance was siiKKcsted by Ihe
physical trnlnlnff director of West Phil
adelphia HIkIi School to make a course
In preliminary military training lit Into
the schedule. He brought the proposi- j
tlon before the board of physical cdu- '
cation, nnd It was lecommended by Its
members. '
fir. Hubert 13111s Tliompson, principal .
of Central High School, and principals
of other IiIrIi schools are opposed lo i
lengthening the school houis. A census
of Central IIIkIi School students showed
that nearly fin per cent of them work
after school hours to help pay their ex- !
penscs at home and to help in war in-
nusiiics, in inohoutnern iiiKn f-c nool , .,,, ,, tlp ,,. ollt r ,, ,, inter. I

the bovs' stanil-

point."
A number of parents have wtitten the
school principals protesting against Ihe
change, nnd a petition Is being prepared
by the high school boys. Doctor Thomp
son said most of the other "schools have
been able lo arrange their schedule s'U
Isfactorlly to Include two hours of mili
tary training within the old time, and
'there Is no reason why all should be
made to suffer because the West Phil
adelphia High School cannot fit Its pro
Crani Into the old time."
It Is possible thCMiiatter will be settled
at a meeting of the Joint committee of
higher schools the latter part of this
week. ,
