The Clo-k System
Considerable discussion was raised
concerning the electric clock system
in the Senior high school. Mr. Lund
extended an offer from the Stan-
dard Electric Clock company to
alter the system now in the high
school building. Dr. Tracey said
that much money had been spent
during thelpast few years for re.
pairs to the clocks without good
results. After much argument on
the matter, it was left with the
building committee with power. The
committee wi also consider the in-
‘stallation of electric buzzer sys-
tem in the new Center Junior High
school. '

pairs to the water main at the Fitch

On Mr. Lund's suggestion $239 was
granted for a lunch room at the new
Center Junior High school. The
lunch room will be conducted by the
pupils with faculty advice.

Broad River School
Mrs. Sarah E. Lane reported that
a note of 816 still remains unpaid on
the Broad River schoolhouse. which
was recently presented to the Broad
River community club. The Board
voted that the Broad River com‘
munity club should be informed of
the matter. Insurance policies on
the Broad RiVer school were also
discussed. Upon Dr. Tracey’s sug-
gestion the matter was tabled for
investigation by the Corporation
Counsel.
Discussion of repairs at the Roo-
sevelt school was continued by Dr.
Fawcett. He said that water pipes
have been clogged by roots of trees
there, and that unless action is taken
immediately considerable trouble
will be caused in the winter because
of freezing.
Dr. prcett reported that because
of the excessive amount of rain dur-
ing the past few weeks. surveyors
have been handicapped in making
preparations for grading property
at the newly built junior high
schools. He reported that the land
near the Ludlow school had already
been staked off. and that consider-
able reduction will be made in the
work there on account of the fill-
ing which can be obtained from the
road work on East avenue. It is
estimated that about 37.000 will be
required to complete grading work
there this year.
The necessity of a side walk ap-
proaching the Jefferson school was
stressed by Dr. Tracey. He said that
appropriations have been made for
an athletic field there. but the safe-
ty 01‘ children at the Jefferson
school has been neglected. The
Board recommended that the matter
of a new walk there be investigat-
ed.
A tentative arrangement for next
year's budget was made, it being
voted to transfer balances of this
year to necessities of the future.
$10,000 was removed from the sai-
ary budget. $2.000 will go for new
equipment. $7.000 will be utilized
for repairs.
Survey of Schools. .
Superintendent Lund announced
that the State Board of Education
had offered to come here and make
.a. general survey of the schools of
Worwalk following the opening next
month. He favored the offer of the
State board. which is headed by Mr.
Meredith. and he asked the local
board's permission to extend an in-
vitation. It is expected that the sur-
vey will consume a few weeks. The
board authorised Mr. Lund to send
the invitation.
Chairman Nash presented a. re-
quest from the East Norwalk Im-
provement Association for use of the
Roger Ludlow auditorium for a zon-
ing meeting in about two weeks. Mr.
Nash did not know the exact date
wanted by the association. and so re-
ferred the request to Mr. Lund with
power.

NEW HAVEN. Aug. 5.—-(AP).
Following announcement in Nyack.
N. Y.. yesterday that the New York.
New Haven and Hartford railroad
had agreed to issue to commuters
between stations in New York state
receipts for commutation tickets
purchased since August 1. 1025, un.
der the new tariff allowed by the
Public Service Commission increas-
ing the rates 40 per cent. a state-
ment was issued last night by Benja-
min I. Spock. general counsel of the
railroad. outlining the railroad's po-
sition in the case.
Mr. Spock stated that the com-
pany had been trying to increase its
New York commutation rates for
five years for two prime reasons,
“first. because it is under a legal
obligation to remove the unjust dis-
crimination which has existed for
five years against commuters in
Massachusetts. lihode Island. and
Connecticut .whero the increased
rates have been in effect for a long
period. and secondly. the company's
legal right to rid itself of confisca-
tory rates which expired July 31.
and to charge .for service rendered
increased rates which would more
adequately compensate it."
Relieve Commuters.
Orie'rcason which Mr. Spock gave
in connection with the company's
willingness to issue receipts for com-
mutation tickets was to relieve the
commuters of the embarrassment in
which they would find themselves
in furnishing an adequate bond to
the railroad in the event the in-
junction wero granted to insure the
company against loss in ‘ the event
the new rates finally were approved.
"Such a bond." the statement said,
"would necessarily amount to sever-
al thousands of dollars. In fact. we
doubt if the commuters could raise
such a bond. However. in order to
bend over backward to show that
we wish to be fair,‘ we will save
them this difficulty by agreeing to
issue the receipts. "4
Mr. Spock and other New Haven
railroad officials urgedthe general
commuting public in the vicinity of
New Yorkstate to-try and inform it-
self upon the .“very vital reasons
which caused the New York Public
Service Commission to allow this 40
per cent. increase in rates." -

THOUGHT DEAD.
WITH MURDER
Identification of Body
In Explosion Adds to
Mystery in Schwartz
Case
MARINTEZ. Calif.. Aug. l5.—
(AP). An unidentified woman
from New York city was tentatively
accepted by authorities today as the
murder victim whose charred body
was found in the laboratory of the
Pacific Cellulose company last week
after an explosion and fire as a re-
sult of which Charles Henry
Schwartz, Berkeley chemist. is being
sought on a warrant charging mur-
der.
Evidence gathered yesterday re-
vealed ihat Schwartz who at the
time of the explosion was believed
to have met his death. had adver-
tised for a helper about the plant
and had told employee that he was
expecting a man from New York.
Working upon this theory. Sheriff
R. R. Veale and District Attorney A.
B. 'i‘lnning hoped to establish the
identity of the dead man. whose body
was burned beyond recognition and
to solve the mysterious case which
is believed to be an insurance hoax
plot.
Schwartz carried insurance poli~
cies in excess of $100,000. payable
to his wife and the Cellulose com-
pany in which Mrs. Schwartz was
heavily interested.
'i‘ho' reappearance yesterday of
Joe Rodriguex. Portugese farm
hand. who had been virtually ac-
cepted as the victim, left the inves-
tigators with few clues upon which
to work and threw the entire case
again into a puzzling situation.

By mid-afternoon she had reached
a point approximately half way
across the waterway and early in the
evening was within five miles of
the pier at Dover. The sea remain-

back the swimmer. At a quarter

fought her way in against the rising
tide to about four miles from her
objective. Rain began falling about
this time. At 11 o'clock she beat
her way in toward the shore anoth-

Half of the new 80 foot strip of
the Post road at Darion. will be
open for traffic today. The cement
highway ,which has been pushed
ahead in nine-foot strips is now as
wide as many state-roads in other
states. Workmen were clearing off
the dirt. o nthe surface of the ce-
ment this morning, in preparation
for the past month over the Darien
stretch this afternoon. It is erpc‘ct-
ed that the completion of half of
the project will end the disorderly
traffic which has been necessary
fo rthe past month over the Darien
stretch. Machines have been com-
pelled to crawl through mud. off the
roadway .and in many cases have
been halted by week-end jams for
many minutes. The opening of the
southern half of the road will make
it possible for two lines of cars to
move fairly rapidly along the post-
road.
