salaries by $400. This raise will
increase the City's, contribution
to salaries by $10,000. Addition
al teachers needed for next year
will increase the salary item by
another $3,000.
Another item increased con
siderably is the amount allocated
to rentals. Due to the fact that
the present school structure is
not nearly large enough to house
the expected enrollment, five
classroom units will have to be
housed in rented quarters. The
cost of this item will run to
about $6,000.
Some other items also showed
smaller increases, but these are
offset by decreases elsewhere in
the budget.
At this meeting it became evi
dent that the Seward schools
were fast becoming one of the
large school systems of Alaska.

GREEN BOUND OVER
TO GRAND JURY
ON LARCENY CHARGE
James (Jimmy) Green, resi
dent oi Seward for several y ars,
was bound over to the Grand
Jury at a preliminary hearing
in U. S. Commissioner's Court
last Friday, May 2.
Green was charged with com
plicity in the theft of $1350 in
pay checks from the Northern
Stevedoring & Handling Cor
poration April 12.
Two others, Gordon Day and
James Poggas, held on the same
charge, were dismissed at the
hearing.
As a basis for budgeting, the
Board had to consider the prob
able student load to be provided
with educational facilities. The
student load has been increasing
during the last six years and
will continue to do so.
This fall we shall probably
have 375 pupils in the grades
and 125 in the high school, or
a total of 500. This will be a
decided increase over the 345
grade school pupils and 95 high
school students now attending
school here. To teach this num
ber of pupils a staff of 26 will
be required, an increase of three
over the present staff. Enroll
ments in the grades have now
reached the point where two
teachers are required for each
grade. This indicated 16 class
room units in the grades. Mean
while a record enrollment is
reaching the high school. Fresh
men will number about 45, re
quiring two sections of English
and probably other freshman
subjects.
