Objects to Artif le on School System s RatingTo the Recorder:
In my opinion your article r a ting our school system according to the Life questionnaire gives a misleading impression of the s ta tus of the Metuchen Public
, Schools,Since the average school system
m the United States today leaves much to be desired Metuchen residents should not be complacent
■ because their schools receive a grade one poin-t above an average rating on a five-year-old questionnaire.
Many of the "Yes" answers •he of a borderline variety, and therefore ylo not present the people with the whole picture. For example: Yes. the high school has a gymnasium. BUT, the gym is also the only auditorium in town. It is nowhere near large enough for the student body in either capacity, and the locker and shower facilities are completely inadequate. Another example: Yes, the physics and chemistry courses do include laboratory work, but the labs are overcrowded and the equipment incomplete. There is no biology lab, although this iss an entrance requirement in some col-
g. "I i I lea i

The Life questionnaire provides a handy, though incomplete check list, but when it comes to using it to arrive at a certain rating it is highly au^stiouab'e. Some of the ■‘Yes' answers are ul negLg ‘z\e importance compared to several of the No” answers. For instance Metuchen’s lack of a remedial teacher is in no way counteracted by the presence of running water m the .washrooms, to cite an obvious example.
Your h e a d 1 i n e. "Metuchen Schools Rate Above Average" i only one point above the Average Group, at th a t ' should be coupled with a reminder that there are still many ways m which our schools should be improved if we are to give our children that most important asset, a truly good education.

She’s worried' about high Taxes, too!Susie doesn't /Kiy lav o 4 exact!> about I be people nn bo </<>. ■■iYou see, most taxpayer* h «■ ehildren -even have ki*ls «»! 1 lieir own. But wlieit il eomus to voting for the new sehool or additional' seliool fari’ffties- - well, llte ir poekclbooks sort of get lhe ;bcsl of them, and they Note “no.”
As taxpayers, we must th ink about <>ur children and tlieir futures. Look into th e problem of overcrowded schools. And consider this fuel in tIm* next lew years these schools will have to take care of even more children!
I hink. too, about the add itional teachers'that will be needed to teach these children.
At a time when <Tou (IWl

place for children and a real fire hasoti d.
We ourselves believe that the taxpaver would never hesitate a moment as ,fo the correction of such a situation, and we think that he could rightfully feel incensed at the implication that he might wish lv\ i s pocketbook weighed against the safety of the children.
Another recent remark reads as follows: "The board feels that . any plans must be accomplished with the least cost to the taxpayer." We have attended a number of .school board meetings this past year and have come to admire the board, not primarily for Us efforts to save our paying higher taxes although its members have consistently tried to do th isi. but. chiefly because, at considerable cost of time and energy, it has tri^d to provide the children of our town with a better education Moreover, we are hoping that it will continue to make any recommendations needed for the very best education our town an give its children. %;*hn-j* t>v* members, of the Board of Education constantly having to feei afraid of that chimerical ogre, "The Taxpayer."
To continue: "Educators want lower taxes just like everybody else Do they? We wonder. For we are of the opinion 'hat it would be very strange jf those right in the middle of the field of education itself wanted lower taxes, if this would mean lower salaries for
already inadequately paid teacher, or poorer equipment and less favorable working conditions in the classroom every day And as to EVERYBODY'S' :■ wanting lower taxes, don't those people count who last year voted "Yes" for an increased school budget? They are also taxpayers, aren't they?
Again we read: "Home ow:ners insist that this tax rise has got to stop " Tliis seems to us another blanket statement that is a bit too thick for this warm issue, and we wonder if this covers those of us that are still paying for our own homes, among whom will certainly be found many people who iuo urging-higher taxes, especially for belter education. Or did the writer forget to qualify his statp- meni about home owners with the v.-orris "a few"?
And finally, the most amazing generalization of all: The voter casts his ballot for economy!!" According to this writer the voter has little more than one thought. hJs pocketbook. to which he pre- sumably is willing to sacrifice a!niost everything else in life. We however, are going to have to disagree once more. Perhaps we art* unduly prejudiced in favor'wf voters and taxpayers, but it is our Mrong conviction that there are, a number of things about which ' Nicy rare more than about economy For instance, we believe that the average taxpayer today has
j accepted, the fact that both his ! son a,1d daughter will need a fust-rate high school education, if uni a college one. to insure their-' being successful in business profession or trade: and also, as parents and as citizens in their individual communities. It is very true that this was not the case a generation ago. as evidenced by ! he large number of successful people that became so without oven a moderately good fprmal education But those days &re gone, and we would like to believe that, in our day the average taxpayer cares less about lower taxes t han he does about giving his children. and his neighbor’s, the priceless and imperishable heritage of a really fine education.
Of course, there may be a few people with leisure and time to be vocal, who do not have &t heart the over-all interest of the community But for each one of these we are convinced that there are many others who* though less articulate, because of the pressures of daily living, will nonthe*., less lend their firm support to in- cicased taxes-, if these taxes are for a n y reasonable purpose. Among these persons, we especially want to thank our older neighbors and friends, whose children are no longer in school, for their continued support. Thesethanks go out in eqiial mpnciij-o to those other men and women who have never had children, b u t; vyho nevertheless understand that the local school system is thebarometer whereby that community inevetlably will be judged, and wlio are live re fore lending us their j loyal support

Unconscious when admitted to the hospital, after battlin'.- flame' ■ n the home of June Baylis of 268 Lake Avenue, the boy was discharged the next morning
According to police. Tommy went to the cellar of the Bav’.is heme to fix the fire and in doing yo slammed a "Furnace door - Sparks showered around and ignited some trash. The boy. with the aid of Miss Baylis and another youth identified only as another "Tccn- mv." fought the blaze them.selve-v They went back upstairs and later ‘•melled smoke again.

$ 100 oPJ’ assessed ve seems destined to ra per $100 of assessed
luation. and theate by nine cents
This gives a total boost of 60 cents per $100 of assessed valuation over last year’s rate, or a new rate of $10.24. Last year’s tax rate here was $9.64.
In other words, if your home has a true value of $10,000. it will be assessed at about $2,000 and your tax bill would amount to approximately $204.80. Proportionately, a $15,000 home would nfet a tax bill of about $307.20. and a $20,000 home would be taxed at approximately $409.60.

Fire InspectorIssues WarningP
A rash of fires caused by carelessness has plagued the Metuchen Fire Department in recent weeks. George Montagna, fire inspector, said yesterday.
Mr. Montagna pointed out that the borough has an ordinance against starting fires except in an enclosed area such as an incen- erator. So far. violators of this ordinance have not been prosecuted. he said

j To the Editor! In a recent editorial you refer '! to a supposed dilemma confront- I ing the school board in connec
tion with the impending double j session and which you illustrate by “whether to have one over-
| worked chemistry teacher, or the ! luxury of two chemistry teachers."! Your example is not well chosen I since we do not have enough j chemistry for even one full time j chemistry teacher and since j chemistry is not offered 'below the | 11th grade, there could be no j chemistry in the afternoon ses- ; sion. (:1,
The more important point I wish to make, however, is that
| in the word "luxury,” I detect an | implication that teachers will j have a lighter load next year when j they are teaching in one session : only, be* it morning or afternoon.| This is by no means the case.
Actually, under double session, i the jab of the individaul teacher j will be more difficult than now. j The typical Metuchen teacher in
, our present seven-period day,J teaches six clas.ses and one j free period. Next year, the same
teacher will have the same six ! classes, but. the going will be
much “rougher." since he will have to teach six classes straight
J through without the normal i breaks occasioned by the free per- | iod and by the lunch hour, both ! of which wiR be missing next j year. Teachers are willing to un
dertake this, as an emergency measure, but the idea is not pop- !
! ular. Double session is not part j I time.

-Not to be outdone by the senior trip, the juniors have planned a junior safari to the heart of the Manhattan region. The expedition is set for March 18.
March 18 is also the date of the senior dance. “Basin Street,” by name. At the meeting Wednesday, a suggestion was made that instead of hiring a local band, a phonograph could be used, concealed by a curtain backdrop on the stage This idea, although going against precedent set by previous dances, possesses great potentialities.
Impeachment charges we r e brought against one member of the legislature last week because I this homeroom president did not take a vote on the controversial amendment proposal. And, although the legislature agreed that the action was one of misconduct, it declined to impeach him.
The cabinet is adding an additional day to their weekly meetings in order to accomplish more than can now be done with only a lunch period to work in.

of what’s waiting for you in the Super "88” for ’55. But only a hint. Bec ause this year’s "Rocket”—the ekriting new Rocket” 202—tops even the famous "Rockets” of the past. We could tell you bow it melts away the miles and flattens the hills. Instead, we’ll let the "Rocket” do the talking. So come in soon. This "88” for ’55 is even livelier than it is lovely ■ ,, and th a t’s really something!
