PLANS FDR SCHOOLS AL SUPSHOD Albert Kelsoy, Architect, Launches Fight for "System" in Construction Work CITES DEFECTS IN BUILDINGS Albert Kelsey, architect, who lias launched a fight against the Board of Education's "slipshod" methods of building and maintaining school prop erties, loilny said there should be a comprehensive scheme of development Hint wduld mnkc for the betterment of schools already built, nnd the estab lishment ot suitable properties lu the future. Ho Indorsed the proposed zoning net. which would prevent the erection of factories, slaughter houses and the' like In proximity to schools. Mr Kelsey blamed both the city and Board of Education for "haphazard" methods of erecting schools ns individual properties, rather than us units iu n city-wide system. He cited the Frnnk fcrd High ns the only school he knew in the city Hint he was proud of. He pointed out the Germantown High and the West Philadelphia High Schools as "horrible examples of wasteful ignor ance nnd civic maladministration." His chief complaint is against lack of playground space and against the shut ting off of light and air because of lack of ground. Realizes Job Is Big "1 realize the Board of Education lias no easy job." he said.

School as Community Nucleus "This is ns it should be. The school should form n nucleus for the commu nity. There is something very notable about the Fraukford school achievement in that the city actually permitted ine indefinite continuation of a stupid street to be interrupted to assure u noble .school site nnd that is not all, for with equal foresight within two blocks the' Board of Education controls a large field which some, day will become a fine community playground.

Compared with the setting of the old Ocrmahtown Acndemy of Revolutionary days, it Is a distinct step backward. It faces a narrow street, completely overwhelming the little properties oppo site. The end facing the main street gives one a disagreeable surprise. More over, the one Inexpensive property purchased in the rear to give ncess to Its boiler room is nn indication of the littlc-mludedness and blundering stupidity of the whole undertaking, when tiic whole block might have been acquired and the building night have faced the right way, thus becoming a point of civic pride and increasing use fulness ns Germantown becdmes more densely built up, "Blunder" In West Philadelphia "Bui for wasteful ignornncennd civic iiiulatlmlnlstratiou the West Philadel phia High is the most horrible example I ktmw nf. The hnlldliiff itself is fair. but considering' that when it was built there were no houses and few streets for blocks, and that the drift of popula tion was surging rapidly westward, there is no excuse whatever for this civic blhuder. Except for n narrow frame of verdure the entire block Is filled bv the build ng itself.
