PLEADS NOT GUILTY TO ACCEPTING BETS Accused of accepting bets on horse races, William H. Hache- mesiter, 36, of 81 Kenneth avenue, Baldwin, pleaded not guilty to a charge of bookmaking when ar- raigned before Judge Joseph P. Lebkuecher in first district court, Mineola, yesterday. Judge Lebkuecher set the case over until Monday for a further hearing and Hachemesiter was re- leased in his own custody. Hachemesiter was arrested by detectives o[ the district attor- ney's office at Grand avenue and George B. Serenbetz of ad He stated that erection of a school on the site now proposed would create a traffic problem in the morning hours, since it would mean at least 500 additional stu- dents crossing the narrow streets. It would not be an expense to the taxpayers of the village, Scholly said, insisting that it would create a saving, because many of the boys attending public school would attend the parochial school, which is financed by the parish. The money saved by the village since the erection of the first parochial school, he said, would amount to an: astronomical figure. Contending that the Clinton school was antiquated and would eventually have to be torn down, Scholly said that only six of the 14 classrooms are now being used and that the cost of teaching the 80 or 90 students, heating and. maintaining the building is ex- ceedingly high. He maintained that all the schools with the ex- ception of the high school are be- low capacity and could easily absorb the students now attend- ing Clinton school. Informed by Floyd .B. Watson, superintendent of schools, that the board of education has placed a $210,000 value on the school, Scholly suggested that the village appoint an arbitrator, have the church appoint one, and the two choose a third to evaluate the building.. Following the arbitrat- ors' decision ag to its value, the question of selling it to the St. Agnes parish should be put to a referendum, Scholly said.
