President of Beard of Education
Says Tendency Is Toward
Toe Many Classes
SOME STATE FUNDS UNPAID
"TRUE KNIGHT" SHIELDING HIS SWEETHEART
A larger number of smaller schools
Instead of n few large schools wns rec
ommended te the Benrd of Education
today In the annual report of Its presi
dent, Willlnm Rewcn, who nlse urged
nddltienal high schools In Itoxberough
and West Philadelphia.
Mr. Rewcn recommended schools with
from twenty-two te thirty divisions in
stead of schools with forty or fltty. The-
very large schools, he said, are difficult
of supervision. Increasing trolley and
nutomebilo traffic makes It dancreiiB for
small children te travel n long distance
te school, he said.
"In this connection," the report says,
I would call your attention te the ap
pend for ndditiennl school accommoda
tions which nre coming from Frank
ford, Wlsslnemlngj Tnceny, Legan.
Oak Lane. Germnntewn. Rycrs, Fex
Chase, Fcltenvlllc, Overbroek and
(Seuth Philadelphia for elementary and
junior high schools."
New Policy Suggested
Mr. Rewcn suggested a new pelicji
for the beard in its task of keeping
school facilities In step with the city's
growth.
"It would seem te be the part of wis
dom for the beard te adept n policy of
acquiring future school sites long In
advance of the time needed for provid
ing additional school accommodations,"
Mr. Ren en said. ,
JSy making a sturiv of ilil-pi-tinna nt
future jrewth of pur city arid consult
ing with the Department of Surviys ns
te street plans, instend of waiting until
btieeU are opened and graded and lo
calities mere or less populated, the
beard would be enabled te purchase
school sites nt much less cost."
Mr. Rowen also recommended an ap
peal te the Legislature for financial aid
se the work of Americanization can be
extended. The present efforts Of the!
local school system in training udults
ferctuzenshlp were praiacd.lry the "presi
dent of 'the board.rwhe said he favored
Its 'extension by State and Federnl aid.
$088,iJ72.70 Unpaid
Thc report was made ns of December
31, 1021, and showed that $0S8,272.70
due from the State Treasury was un
paid en that date. The total school re
ceipts from all sources in 1021, Includ
ing leans for permanent Improvements,
were $22.222.248.r8, and the expendi
tures were S21 ,120.12:1.8.1.
The recommendation for a new ad
ministration building wns reiterated in
the annual report. The erection of a
storehouse and repair shop also wns
suggested, nnanceu tiireugn tlie recem
mended sale of old buildings which can
no longer be used for choel purposes.
Mr. ltewen's report nlse stated:
"The eutstniidlnc feature nf (Iip
beard's administration of the (.clmnlH

or .Superintendent or Schools Hroeme,
the approval of a new snlary schedule
