but thought it was impractical.

Alexander J. Rummler said the
board had gone into the matter o'i‘
a. new school for Winnipauk, but the
Common Council had turned the
proposition down.

Dr. George G. Fowcett declared
the Board of Education had a. new
school in mind for this district to
come out or the proposed ”school
bond issue. He said. however.._l\é
understood only 8200.000 02 the
$350,000 asked for. would be avail-
able. He suggested that the voters
in “’innlpauk send a. petition to the
State Legislature to slloxv-lho'tull
amount asked for. statin that the
money which it is report (1 will be
allowed would probably be used for
a. Junior High school‘in the Second
district.

Mr. nummler moved that the
building committee be authorized to
construct an iron pipe tencc around
the'school grounds.

Tho' motion was seconded and
passed. The other matters asked
for in the petition were referred to
