THE MOBNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER .13, 1904. RECORDS AROUSE HIS IRE MR. "WITTENBERG SAYS MISTAKE WAS MADE. Denies That He Made Motion to In stall' Heating Plant for High School Football Team. Questions of veracity caused a quick passage of repartee at a meeting of the Board of Education, last night. Clerk Allen teas reading the minutes of previous meetings and came to that portion re ferring to the installing of an additional heating plant in the High School. The record read, on motion of Mr. Witten berg" the plant -was ordered Installed "for the use of the football team." "How Is that?" Inquired Mr. Witten berg. "I did not make such a motion. My intention was that the plant should be for the use of all tho pupils, and I would like to have the record so state." Director Williams said the motion was as the record stated, and that was why he voted In the negative. Mr. Witten berg didn't care why Mr. Williams voted against it. He knew he did not make any such motion as the record stated, and he would Insist that It be corrected. Mr. Williams insisted Just as strongly that he did specify "for the football team." White with passion, Mr. Wltten berc appealed to the president of the Board, but with a woman's tact, Mrs. Litton evaded the question. The record stands as read, but Mr. Wittenberg want ed it publicly announced that "the heater, was put In for all pupils, and not for .prizefights and the exclusive use of the baseball team," and the Incident was closed. Miss M. J. Wingate applied to tho Board for the privilege of purchasing the buildings temporarily used for tho Park School as soon as the Board deslrod to sell them. Her proposition was referred to the committee on buildings. Robert Krohn, who has been in charge of physical training in the city schools for nearly ten years, asked that his sal ary be increased from $850 to $1200 per year. There was some opposition to the request, but after it had been discussed and Director Warren had stated that Brofesor Trohn had to spend about $14 per month for carfare, the increase was granted. Miss Myrtle Moffett, who is one of the instructors in drawing, who visits all the schools of the cits, was granted an in crease of salary of $5 per month. Her carfare bill Is also heavy Miss Esther Wiest was ordered em ployed as assistant supervisor of drawing at a salary of $65 per month. Director Warren called the attention of the Board to the fact that some of the Janitors have been turning the hose oa the interior walls of the schoolrooms, and thereby damaging the plaster. The janitors will be Instructed to use some different method In cleaning. Director Wittenberg was Indignant over a published account of the delay In re pairing and improving the various school buildings of the city. He stated to the Board that there is not a school building in the city upon which work Is being done which will not be fully completed in less than a month. The Park School, which was burned last Spring, will be ready by Monday, but the scholars are all to take up their studies on Wednesday of this week In the temporary buildings. Eight rooms will be ready for use In two weeks In the Atkinson, Brooklyn and Clinton Kelley Schools. Every delay has been caused by the lack of material and strikes. It .has been almost impossible, he 6aid, to get lumber. Two large ves sels are loading here for foreign ports, and the mill people say they must sup ply this trade In order to keep up Port land's reputation as a lumber-shipping port, and the schools can wait. Superintendent of Construction Jones indorsed Mr. Wittenberg's statement, and said the mills had been giving the rafters and shingles, but had held back lumber so that almost two weeks' work had been lost. Only 90 days' time has been avail able between the terms to do the amount of work necesary, and had the lumber been available and had no plumbers strike occurred, all the buildings would have been ready in time for opening the Fall term. Regarding tho Atkinson School. Super intendent RIgler reported that scholars will be accommodated in the portable buildings at the Couch School, two classes reporting each morning and two in the afternoon. The building will soon be ready for nil the classes. SCHOOLS ARE OPEN. Reports of City Superintendent RIg ler Show Light Attendance. School bells sounded yesterday, but hops are ripe, and the usual number of pupils failed to respond. This year the sessions began ten days earlier than usual and the poor showing in 27 schools reported open Is attributed to this fact. Twenty-eight of the 32 schools in the city opened. Tho records show the follow ing attendance: North Central 493, In crease of 30; Central 565, decrease of 171; Stephens 436, decrease 48; Brooklyn 262, decrease 63; Clinton Kelly, not opened, will begin next Monday; Midway IS, de crease 14; Sellwood 269, decrease 21; Sun nysido 445. decrease 21; East Twenty eighth, new school, 76; Chapman 453, de crease 38; Couch 623, decrease 61; Atkinson, no report on temporary classes; Park school, no report, opens tomorrow; Har rison. 680. decrease 72; Failing 586, decrease 41; South Portland 200, increase S; Fulton 50, decrease 16; Fulton Park 72, decrease S; Alnsworth 9S, decrease 26; Marquam, opened but not reported; High school S60, increase 117; Woodlawn 254, increase 14; Portsmouth, not opened; Peninsular 75. decrease 30; Ockley Green 137, increase 36; Highland 493, same as last year; Thompson ESI, decrease 96; Alblna Cen tral 147, decrease 52; Williams-Avenue 650, decrease 43; Holladay 663, increase IS; Fernwood 11, decrease 1. The High School opens with the great est attendance in the history of the city. The total reports show 920S scholars en rolled with four large schools' to hear from and the hopfields to send back their pcikers. Xast year the total attendance was 14,909. Superintendent RIgler expects those figures to bo passed inside of two weeks, by several hundred, as the enroll ment In some of the schools shows con sfiderablG growth in many districts. He Also Blames the Stoker. PORTLAND, Or., Sept. 12. (To the Editor.) T notice there has been much cold about the actions of tho fireboat at tho big water-front nre of some days ago and in order that the rial facta may bo known, I will make this statement, as an unprejudiced member of the boat crew who is familiar with the facts in the case. From what I know of the affair I believe no Injustice was done Stoker Brown in throwing the blame on him, and the ether members of the crew will bear me out. Stoker Brown was given every chance by Engineer Kellogg. That his furnace iirea -were put out, thus destroying the power of the engines, was due to the large quantity of water which the stoker had la the boilers. Had the water come from the ex haust, as he claims, he could have protected his fires from that source by simply pulling a chain which would have thrown the water from the exhaust into the air. Those are the facts in the case, as every member of the crew will testify' and the blame has not been un justly placed upon the shoulders of the stoker. A FIREMAN. DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT.
