Residents of Ballardvale paid careful attention, Tuesday night, to everyone who spoke the new South school. Here, most turn their heads to see as well as hear the speaker. Theme, ing was held in the Community room. (Leone Pr

NEW SCHOOL DEBATE RAGES

( Continued from Page One) Cheaper To Build

Early in the meeting, John W. l'riestly Jr., a partner in the Gil-bert firm, told the group that the proposed type of building could be built cheaper because it is de-signed in units that a smaller con-tractor could build, rather than the older type of building which only a few contractors could han-dle.

A protracted debate over who erects the steel work and the cost of that labor found Arthur Solomon of Bancroft rd. pointing out that union labor is used, whoever does the work, thus failing to reduce the cost very much.

Considerable time went into the debate over state aid — with the architects insisting that the state commission gives careful attention to construction as well as educational facilities within the structure. Mr. Wolfson told the Vale residents that a taxpayers committee had talked with Mar-shall and believed he is only in-terested in educational matters, not construction.

Another Impasse Answering questions that had

been asked of him by the school committee, Mr. Priestly told the group that corridor space in the new building would total 17.5 per-cent of the total interior space while a school in the town, which many persons feel is more com-pact, has 18 percent corridor space.

Complete disagreement resulted, however, when Mr. Wolfson read from a report of an architectural committee, appointed by the gov-ernor, which said long, narrow wings, long corridors and lots of exterior walls are not recommen-ded because they cost more.

Kiernan said heating in the new building, despite its glass walls, would be no problem because the major problem is one of cooling after the students are in their rooms. lie differed sharply with Wolfson over the report, claiming that the proposed construction in Ballardvale would not be more ex-pensive than what might be called a more compact building. Square Foot Cost

Cost of the school, the archi-tects said, was estimated at $17.35 per square foot — a maxi-mum figure designed to prevent coming back to the town for more money. Kiernan said the building probably could be built for less than the total of $980,000 re-quested and that his firm would work hard to be sure that it was built for less.

Why, then, Mr. Wolfson wanted to know, couldn't an appropriation for less money be requested. lie cited figures from the Massachu-setts Northern Construction com-pany of Lawrence — in writing —which offered to build the school for $725,000. That firm's bid also included the architects' estimate on equipment and site develop-ment, for a final total of $819,000. It also included plans and spec-ifications for the building.

Mr. Priestly quickly told the gathering that such a method of doing business isn't proper — that construction companies don't in-clude plans and specifications in their usual work. Several asked whether the town would then have to take whatever materials the

company wished to use to meet its own price but were told that the bid specifically mentioned using the best materials.

Many cost estimates, on a per square foot basis, were thrown into the discussion, with the ar-chitects quoting a list of prices for schools they have built. Some were about $9 while others went into the high 'teens. They pointed out that the new school can be built for whatever the town pro-vides — but room sizes would have to be cut down. The kindergarten, now at 1400 square feet, might come down to 1200 and some classrooms now at 900 might drop down too. Thus, the architects said it is possible to save $100,-000 over the estimate but only at the sacrifice of space.

That prompted one woman to ask "What are we building, a school or a chicken coop?" Less Money

The architects time and again accented their belief that the school could be built for less than $980,000 but said it had been their belief that the towns-people wished a fair estimate and would not welcome a second re-quest for funds.

One man suggested that the way to get the school is to take what-ever appropriation is granted and then ask for more later on.

The question upermost in the residents' minds — how to get a school — went unanswered but several suggestions came out of the meeting.

It was suggested that parents in other sections of the town be warned that the Central school

A new school acts like a magnet to attract into town new families with children of school age and the only thing that slows down this tendency is the rezoning re-cently enacted. Every new fam-ily coming into town with two' children in the public schools represents a new capital outlay of $3,400 plus an operating cost of $500 per year. Almost never does such a family's taxes so much as pay for the cost of in-

struction, to say nothing about all the other town services.

"Does the above mean that we should not have a new school? It is intended to mean nothing of the kind, but only to clarify some of the facts and fancies involved."

hat Our eaders Say 1100L FACTS AM/ FANCIES the Editor of the TOWNSMAN: Ally is it, Mr. Editor, that pie who conduct their personal irs with understanding and once suddenly go beserk when tic expenditures come up for sideration? 'Now under heated discussion ur proposed South school. tie- ing this project we hear atti-s of ridiculous extremes. On one hand, people arc asking

he price includes a swimming or an 18-hole golf course.

on the other I have heard it ously said that it will add

a dollar or so to the tax I May I submit a few facts? Suppose we begin by rounding the construction cost of the

ool as proposed and call it, convenience, a million — yes, ice cool million dollars. flow this cost break down? The present design of the ool calls for 20 class rooms, uding kindergarten. The cost onstruction on a per-classroom is thus becomes $50,000 and e the building is designed to nunodate 580 pupils, the cap- outlay per child or per seat bout $1700. The school should ctly benefit at least 300 fain-

at one time at an average truction cost of some $3400

family. Aere it not for that share of tax load borne by business industry, the construction of the new school would

age close to $70 for every , woman and child in town, over $200 for every household

a wn. How about the current tax ? If 10 percent of the con- tion cost is added to current s, our tax rate will go up $4 ver $65. If we take another ercent out of reserves let us think it doesn't cost us that nit because it makes no dif-nee whether we pay a bill out cket or out of our bank balance; :till pay it with our own money.

In effect this is the equivalent of $8 on the current tax rate — unless we want to indulge in self-decep-tion.

"As for the future tax rate, a look at the last page of what the school committee calls the "bro-chure" is revealing. There, all columns are totaled except the last one on the future tax rate. Fly my uncertain arithmetic, that adds a total of $39.77 to future tax rates. I3oth add up to $48. for construction alone.

"Another point that needs clar-ification is the matter of interest, which adds almost a quarter mil-lion dollars to the construction cost and which we also have to pay. Some people say this item is offset by the state rebate. This is true, but let us remember that the state took this very money from our pockets in the first place. In fact, the state takes from us more than it returns so there is nothing "free" about state reinbursement. Moreover, let's not forget what it costs us in expensive design in order to qualify for state aid. It has even been said that we might be better off financially to forget about state aid. In any case, state aid is no manna from heaven, while interest is a large and inescap-able cost of the job.

"Why are schools so expensive these days? Among the reasons are ( 1) we have to make them ex-pensive to qualify for state aid; ( 2) the proportion of space de-voted to classrooms has nose-dived to the point where only about one half of the total area is now devoted to teaching; and (3) certain strange things are being done in the name of "sound edu-cational practice" which, in my opinion, have little or nothing to do with education. How it was ever possible for anyone to get a good education in a building erected a generation or more ago must be one of the most baffling of mysteries. But it is a current fetish that education depends on the design of the structure and we are expected to pay for the application of this theory whether it be true or false.

"I think it is the town's serious loss that our school committee

members should have chosen to get themselves so bogged down in the technical details of build-ing construction, which they can-not fully understand, that they can no longer afford to devote much attention to the purpose for which the buildings arc erected and for which the committee was primarily elected. If modern archi-tecture is such a boon to educa-tion, why do a lot of people be-lieve that, as the quality of archi-tecture goes up, the quality of education is going down? Isn't it high time that we stop confus-ing bricks and mortar and painting and flooring and ventillating and wiring and heating and plumbing with Education? Or could it be, Mr. Editor, that we are so resigned to the proposition that we don't know how to improve education that we cover up our failure by glorifying the housing?

`"I'wo more points and I will sign off. Let us bear in mind that although we are building 18 reg-ular classrooms we have a net gain of only 12 because we elim-inate six. From this realistic point of view the cost per regular classroom gained goes up to $85,000 and the cost of seats gained goes up about $3000 each.

"Lastly, let us not think that a new school solves the problem of overcrowding, because it doesn't. The very existence of a new school soon recreates the very problem it was intended to solve.

The Natanche group of the Campfire girls under the direction of their leaders, Mrs. William Sch-midlin, recently enjoyed a guided tour of the Andover Historical so-ciety. The girls were shown a va-riety of interesting silver and china objects and greatly enjoyed the large doll collection which has been on exhibition at the so-ciety. The collection of priceless dolls ranged in size from one inch to life-sized and boasted a talking, walking beauty from France. The girls who visited the Historical society were Carol Jean Locke, Karen Ingenthron, Beth McGovern, Carol Dunlop, Nancy Campbell, Jane Carpentier and Dorrene Schmidlin. Birthday Party

Jeannie Lowe, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John Lowe of Sutherland st., was entertained Saturday at a supper party at her home in honor of her seventh birthday. The young ladies present were entertained by a group of party games, and amid a large display of colorful bal-loons, the guests enjoyed the birthday fare. The supper table was gaily decorated in spring shades and favors, hats and bal-loons were presented to each one. The large birthday cake was dec-

nglish V isitor hanks Friends Words of thanks from a visitor

oni England to many citizens of e town were contained in a let-r received this week from Hilda A. Cummel la. She wrote The TOWNSMAN,

a.king that her gratitude for the hospitality shown her during a six months' visit be expressed.

"It has been even more wonder-fill than I dreamed possible," she wrote, "In England the hospital-ity of the Americans is a well-known fact but even so I feel I have had more titan my share of it".

Writing from aboard the R.M.S. Newfoundland at St. John's, New-tpundland, she pointed out that *embers of the Margaret Slattery Blass at the Free church and

Fembers of the Christ church riendly society admitted her to

tfeir circles. 4 It was gratifying tb be one of them and not a sltranger from across the ocean. Pshall always remember this hol-i ay as it has been so memorable".

During her vacation here, she sited with a cousin, Miss Grace

e of Main st.; an aunt and usin, Mrs. Annie and Miss Ruby uric of Whittier st. and several t-of-town relatives and friends. "I had friendship extended to ', she wrote, "from numerous izens" and may this message xpressing my thanks and appre-lion, be given them"?

ILDERS URGE RMIT RATION (Continued from Page One)

c town of Stoughton restricts its me construction permits with a ximum of 10 permits a year for ch sub-division or parcel of d. No restriction is placed on

dividuals building their own mes, he pointed out. So far, with the plan in opera-

..'n for over a year, there has en no court test but Planning and member Robert MacMackin

said that state officials feel ch a test might result in a find-against such a restriction.

Noyes said Stoughton's experi-ce has been one of reasonable wth, with a steady rate of ex-

nsion but without any large de-lopments such as have been posed here. "The major objective," he sta-, "is to be able to tell, near first of the year, about how

ny homes will be built and ere so that the 13PW and others plan for future needs."

n Stoughton, Noyes explained, selectmen, also acting as a

rd of health, applied the re-actions. They had the consent the town's board of public

Capital Expenditures Mr. Noyes several times pointed

to severe problems with vital fac-ilities — water, drainage, sewer-age — as the main reason for pro-posing the restrictions.

The plan would go hand in hand with a capital expenditures pro-gram, he said, so that the town might properly lay out the long-range plan with some hope that it could be completed without the pressures created by overwhelm-ing growth.

That the selectmen may well take some action on the matter within a week was predicted by Mr. Noyes. lie said he will be happy to discuss it with them and to help create a plan that would be suitable for Andover if the ex-act Stoughton system did not ap-pear practical to them. Realty Construction

It is expected that large devel-opers will object to the plan for it would prevent any large-scale building projects. It was expected in some quarters that the Realty Construction company, which owns large areas off Elm st., may ob-ject. The firm had originally planned to build better titan 300 homes on their property.

and C. Lincoln Giles. They wrote, in part, "We hope

the various boards will seriously consider this plan or one similar since we feel it would accomplish the purpose of restricting rapid growth of the town without inter-fering with the operations of local builders.

"We are fully aware of the town's problems in water, sewer-age, drainage, schools and all other eventualities arising from too rapid growth. We feel, how-ever, that it is not necessary to continue the present plan of in-creasing lot sizes each year to prevent this and wholeheartedly subscribe to the plan brought for-ward by Mr. Noyes."

Stricter Plan Mr. Henderson would have even

more strict controls, based on a suggestion made to the planning board. His proposal would have new homes held down to 120 per-mits a year. It was included in a letter to the planning board but Mr. Henderson said it is his own opinion and should not be consid-ered to be a decision of the IIPW.

His plan would work this way: no more than 20 permits a month: not more than five permits to any individual or family during the year; not more than 10 permits for buildings in any one sub-division or development in any year. lie would have the number of permits vary from year to year as facilit-ies become available.

As always when heavy snow comes, there have been a few complaints but all in all we feel that a fine job was done under adverse conditions.

10 THE ANDOVER TOWNSMAN, MARCH 29, 1956

Down the Years with The Townsman UNCI- al

Presidential Primary BPW Employees Get Early Raise

The Presidential Primary will be with us soon — April 24 to be exact.

Already the nominees for Democratic and Republican town committees and for the state committees of both par-ties have been chosen, as have delegates to the national conventions.

Four years ago, 2453 men and women voted in the pri-mary — only a small fraction of the registered voters. But even that total was considered high, because the usual Presidential Primary vote is numbered here in the hun-dreds. In the 1952 primary, the big Taft-Eisenhower con-test brought out the vote.

This year, with no Republican contest,many GOP voters are likely to pass up a chance to vote. Democrats, how-ever, have a contest in that a close watch will be kept on the preferential, write-in vote for liefauver and Stevenson.

We certainly hope that a large number of voters will concern 4hemselves with the Primary, for it is in that way that the voter can express his opinion on the ultimate choice at the national conventions.

Moreover, there is an opportunity for men and women of both parties to select their representation to the state committees and the town committees — both organizations that play an important part in the town's political life.

The Primary should not be ignored. Please keep that date — April 24 — in mind as the day when all of us have a chance to once again exercise our greatest franchise.

BPW employees received their $3 pay increase last week, two weeks ahead of other town em-ployees.

The board had originally voted to make the raise effective March 19 and refused to reconsider the request of Selectman Stafford A. Lindsay that the date be moved ahead to April 1 in conformity with other departments.

BPW Member Leroy Wilson is quoted as telling the other four members: "We didn't ask them what they were going to do. It's none of our business what they do and it's none of their business what we do. It's only the select-men who're squawking, anyhow".

Chairman Allen Flye reminded the board that a strong argument for town manager has been a lack of cooperation and coordination between boards but no action was taken to change the date to April 1.

Member David Thompson made it clear that the board would have been glad to cooperate with the other departments if the informa-tion had been available in time —but he did not desire reconsidera-tion now that the date for the raise had been set. Member Fran-cis Reilly concurred, pointing out that the BPW set the date of March 19.

Secretary Alex Henderson said cooperation would be desirable but at the same time he wanted to be "fair" to the men in the de-partment. He suggested a $6 Christmas bonus if the date was changed to April 1, thus assuring the men that they would receive their money.

Garden Club Will Meet Next Tuesday

The Andover Garden club will hold its first meeting of the spring season on the afternoon of 'I'ues-day, April 3, at Peabody house. Coffee will be served at 1:30, to be followed by the meeting at 2.

LAUNDERED & REFINISHED

TO SUCCESS

When a young man starts out in business and probably to make a home in the community, he would do well to establish relations with a lawyer, a doctor, a clergyman of his faith, and a banker. These four professions hold the threads to successful living in the various areas of life; and they represent services he is sure, at sometime or other, to need personally.

For your bank, consider the Bay State Merchants National Bank. It has expanded because it has given good service to its customers.

something before he got off and he did".

•Mr. Henderson told the board the matter left a bad taste in his mouth because, whether it was rigged or not, it looked that way. He further said he had been told what was going to happen and it did.

During the discussion, Mr. Thompson nominated Mr. Flye and Mr. Henderson nominated Wilson, who refused due to pressure of business. Wilson then nominated Henderson. Neither nomination was seconded for some time, until finally Member Francis Reilly said he believed Flye would make a good chairman and seconded the motion for his election. When Mr. Thompson moved the nominations be closed, it was pointed out that the Henderson nomination hadn't been seconded so Mr. Thompson seconded it. Flye was elected and then came the problem of electing a secretary.

Mr. Henderson finally agreed to take the job, which he resigned some weeks ago when Mr. Flye was first elected, on condition that votes be taken in executive session rather than when the people are in and embarrassment might result from making a de-cision in front of them. He also took issue with a practice of not reading the minutes of the meet-ings, which he said were six months behind. A special meeting was set for this week to go over

the reports. Mr. Henderson made it clear that

he was not fooling about having decisions made in executive ses-sion and said he would resign if it is not followed. The problem of a reserved parking space for Mr. Henderson was also brought up but no conclusion was reached, He has said several times that a space should be reserved so that he can go into the town hall on town business without getting a ticket for parking.

Cancer Fund Drive Has Begun Here

Annual Service At Free Church

The 1956 Cancer fund drive is underway here.

Chairman Ernest S. Young an-nounced this week that special gifts and industrial solicitations are being conducted now, with a house-to-house canvass planned for April 24.

The nation-wide fund drive seeks funds to support research projects in an effort to find a cure for the malignant disease; to assist patients financially when they need hospital or out-patient care and to further educate the public in the symptoms of cancer in an effort to more quickly dia-gnose cancer so that treatments may be started. Mr. Young pointed out that national statistics in-dicate one patient is cured of each four who have cancer, while a se-cond patient might have been cured had a prompt diagnosis been made.

Co-chairmen of the house-to-house 'drive are Mrs. Frederick Worthen, 18 Stinson rd. and Mrs. Gerry Lebuch, 10 George st.

Special gifts chairman is Adair Miller, 234 So. Main st., while David L. Markert, 144 Chestnut st., is serving as business and industrial chairman. Mrs. Robert E. Marland is secretary.

Ten others are working on spec-ial gift solicitations, according to Chairman Miller. They include Mrs. William Bakrow, Mrs. Stephen F. Brennan Jr., Lyman G. Ballard, David L. Darling, Dr. Douglas M. Dunbar, Mrs. Ralph II. Kimball, Mrs. Harold II. Short, Mrs. David M. Thompson, Mrs. Frederick F. Stott and William V. N. Washburn.

'Tonight at 7:30 the annual sol-emn service will be held in com-memoration of our Lord's Last Supper at the Free Christian chur-ch. The service will include the reception of new members and the celebration of Holy Communion. The Rev. Levering Reynolds Jr., Th.D., will officiate and give the Communion meditation.

Following the service a recep-tion will be held in the Parish hall in honor of the new members with members of the Standing com-mittee as hosts and hostesses. Miss Bessie Coutts, clerk of the church and Mrs. William Burnham, president of the Woman's Union, will pour, assisted by the wives of the deacons. Mrs. Carl Savi-nellie and Mrs. Robert Greenwood of the Margaret Slattery class will preside at the punch bowl. All members of the parish are cor-dially invited.
