BOARD WILL ACT ON SCHOOL BONDS AUG. 27 Issues Will Be Dated Dec. 30. Preventing Work Start This Year. Action on resolutions authorizing bond issued totalling $1,215,000 for Irving high school, new Schools 81 and 82 and additions to Schools 15 and 49, will not be taken until Aug 27. as the result of action taken by the school board majority faction Tuesday night. Lewis F. Whiteman, vice-presi-dent. who presided in absence of President Charles W. Kern, declared he wanted more time to study the situation. The proposed bond issues, SBOO- - for Irvington high school and $415,000 for the grade buildings, are to replace issues of $600,000 for Irvington and $395,000 for the grade buildings rejected, together with all bids a week ago by the state tax board, because bids exceeded the Irvington issue by $200,000 and the grade issue by $21,000. No Work This Year The bonds are to be Elated Dec. 30. and will preclude any possibility of work on the schools being started this year. In rejecting the bond issues, the lax board instructed that plans and specifications for heating and ventilating be changed to permit of open and competitive bidding, instead of “freezing out" competition to the direct-indirect ventilating system manufactured by C. C Shipp. Majority faction leaders, at a committee meeting Tuesday morning, refused to state whether or not they proposed to follow out suggestion of the tax board on ventilation specifications. Unless this is done, Theodore F. Vonncgut, minority faction member. declared, the tax board will reject the new proposed bond issues. Objects to Long Bonding The proposed issues will bear 4’ • per cent interest. The Irvington issue will be retired in 1962 and the grade school issue in 1958. Objections to tying up the school bonding power for so long a period was expressed at the morning meeting by Vonnegut. Steps to pay the architects and engineers on the five buildings were faken with adoption of a resolution for temporary transfer of $23,400 trom the grade and high school bond fund to the building fund. The majority faction approved a report of H. F. Osier, assistant buildings and grounds superintendent. reporting dismissal of Edward T. Castle, general foreman, and reduction of his son. Dallas B. Castle from chief clerk to clerk. Vonnegut objected to action until the reason could be learned. No Reason for Discharge "T gave many good reasons why the eider Castle should never have been appointed in the first place, and I was overridden by the majority faction, but I have heard no reason why he should be dismissed,’’ Vonnegut explained. He also expressed curiosity why the son was not dismissed, instead ot being reduced Appraisal of the Washington township grade school in territory recently annexed, at $50,000. was reported by a special appraisal committee. The school is located at Forty-sixth street and Keystone avenue. Report of Superintendent Charles F. Miller, attending a convention in Switzerland, was presented by Fred T. Gladden, transfer clerk, and was accepted. The report was the same one rejected two weeks ago when only two majority faction members were present.
