Teacher contracts will cover 200 days instead of 190, and the pupils’ school year will include 190 days rather than 180 as in the past. In adopting the 1934-44 school calendar at a meeting last night, the board of school commissioners explained that the longer school term was necessary because state funds allotted on local teachers’ salaries are based on a teaching year of 10 months of 20 days each. The new calendar provides for schools to open Sept. 7 and close June 16, with Christmas and spring vacations shortened. The Christ-
