Review of Joint High School
Problem For Mt. Joy, Marietta
And East Donegal Township
Just recently the School Direct=
ors of Bast Donegal township sent
every patron in that district a let-
ter, giving in detail complete in-
formation concerning the formation
of a joint high school in conjunc
tion with Mount Joy and Marietta
boros. Many of the facts therein
are of interest to every taxpayer in
the three districts. Appended are
extracts from the letter:
You have probably heard a great
amount of talk and discussion
about the formation of a joint high
school with the boroughs of Mount |
Joy and Marietta. It is true that
such a step is contemplated for sev-
eral reasons. We need more space
for our elementary students. There
are nearly 240 students in the old
grade building at Maytown. That
is an average of forty students in
each room. This building has long
been ccndemned for school pur-
poses. Modernization would be im-!
possible. It is heated by oil burners
in each room. Toilet facilities are
inadequate and cannot ke improved
without additional building. There
are 137 students in the Florin ele-
mentary school—an average of 34
in each room. The number of be-
ginners is increasing each year,

and it is estimated that our ele-
mentary school enrollment (grades
one through six) will increase to
400 students by 1954. We have now
ten elementary teachers. By 1954
we will need thirteen elementary
teachers, provided we have the
rooms to house these elementary
teachers. That is why your direct
ors are considering the building of
a joint high school in this area—it
will solve our elementary problems
as well as improve our high school
efficiency.
By building a joint high school,
we can use our present high school
building for elementary purposes.
There are twelve rooms in the
high school building that can be
used for elementary purposes. In
addition, we will have available for
instructional and recreational pur-
poses a shop, a library, a stage and
a gym, a health room for school
nurse and dental hygienist, a tea-
chers’ room and storage rooms. If
present population trends continue
we shall use the four rooms at
Florin for grades one, two and
three, thus leaving one room for
recreational purposes, or for kind-
ergarten. Grades four, five and six
from the Florin area would be

The Icy Highways
Caused Numerous
Auto Accidents
Icy conditions on our Main Street
Tuesday morning were responsible
for three vehicle mishaps in a short
time. Fortunately no one was in-
jured.
The first car, belonging to Miss
Dorothy Schock, Frank St., skidded
to the left side of the highway,
headed east, with the rear end into
the curb in front of the UB church
when a tire ‘blew out.
The second car, driven by Mr.
Jay Gingrich, Mt. Joy R1, turned
crossways on Main St., as the driv-
er made an entrance from Delta St.
turning east. The front of the Buick
locked bumpers with the left rear
of a car parked in front of Carpen-
ter’'s Insurance, Office.
Considerable damage resulted in
the third mishap. When a pick-up
truck slowed for an entrance into
Delta St. off Main, Howard Yellets
driving a truck, attempted to slow
down. The truck turned completely
sideways on Main St. and the front
end skidded directly into the left
door of a new Studebaker, owned
by a H. G. Carpenter employee and
parked in front of that office. The
door was mashed in and the win-
dow shattered.
Monday morning a pick-up truck
headed west and a tobacco truck
going the same direction, but mak-
ing a right turn into Market St,
collided at the post office corner.

Dental Campaign
For Correction of
Tooth Defects
A campaign for the correction of
tooth defects is being conducted by
the local schools under the super-
vision of Mrs, Sadie Brooks, the
school nurse.
Many of our physical disabilities
can be directly traced to bad teeth.
Since it is the aim of the school
medical program educate the
children to desire the highest pos-
sible degree of health, we are striv-
ing to teach prevention as well as
correction of defects.
At the close of this year’s den-
tal examinations we asked dental
authorities for an evaluation of the
work being done here in our dis-
tricts. We learned that we compar-
ed favorably with surrounding
schools but that our correction
rate has declined from 59 to 47.8%
Since "An ounce of prevention
is worth a pound of cure” and
clean teeth are less liable to decay,

sponsored, with an award consisting
