Pa tchogue to Vote on School Voters to Decide On New Building, Added Grounds EAST PATCHOGUE _ Voters of this school district , when they go to the polls on September 10 , will decide whether to build a half-million dollar elementary school to replace their present building, and also will decide whe- ther the district should buy an extra 20.3 acres adjoining the present grounds. If the voters approve , the new school will be built at a cost not to exceed $525 , 000 , at the present Dunton avenue site. The added land will be used for athletic fields a/id to provide for eventual ex- pansion. School officials said this week that the new building, designed to meet the serious overcrowding that has hampered activities there the past few years , will be a one- .story structure. It will include seven regular classrooms , a kindergarten room , an arts room , a \ special\ room , a combined gymnasium and audi- torium — with stage and locker rooms — a library, and office , a clinic , a faculty room and a cafe- teria and kitchen. The new building will be erect- ed north of the present building, which will be removed when the new one is completed , probably in time for the 1953-54 school year. Designed by Frank S. Webber , Pa tchogue architect , the walls will be built of cinder block , faced with brick. Without a basement , the building will have floors of asphalt tile except in the kinder- garten room , where the floor will be covered with cork tile. The land to be acquired lies to the east of the present building, The board is asking- only for au- thorization to purchase the land , since the money already is on hand , school officials said.

The contest , played before a wildly-cheering crowd , was held up shortly during the first inning while the Patchogue Fire depart- ment floodlight truck arri ved to provide some needed illumination near the backstop. The fracas was featured by the strong-arm fi ring of Maynes , who racked up 15 strikeout victims over the six frames. He air-con- ditioned three in the first , one in the second , three in the third , two in the fourth , th ree in the fifth and three in the sixth. His no-hitter was in danger only once when, with two gone in the last inning, Montieth , pinch-hitting for Dobrie , slapped a grounde r which Cohen at sec- ond base got his glove on but couldn ' t hold. There was no doubt about it being an erro r although a few Blue Pointers apparently felt otherwise at the time.

O ff icia l S upp ort Behind School M erger Blue Point Board , Bayp ort Citizens 9 Unit Go On Record BAYPORT — When school district voters of Bay- port and Blue Point meet in the Bayport School audi- torium on September 5 to discuss consolidation of the two districts , they will find considerable official and semi-official support for the proposal. The proposal will be discussed at 8:30 p. m. September 5 in the auditorium of the Bayport school , and on September 9 , at the same time and place , voters will de- cide whether to approve the plan. A Bayport Citizens committee has recommended the program unanimously after intensive study, the Blue Point Board of Education also endorses the pro- posal unanimously, and James Wilson Young, president of the Bayport school board , has added his personal approva l , althou gh the Bayport board as a group has taken no action. Mr. Young said this week th at the board will not make its re- commendation until after the discussion meeting. He explained that the board members don 't want the voters to feel either support for or opposition to the plan is being forced upon them by the board. He said , however , that he , him- self , already is on record as be- ing in favor of consolidation . Blue Point in Favor I The Blue Point board unani- j mously favors the consolidation I plan , Lloyd P. Dodge , the board' s president , told The Advance this week. ] Mr. Dodge made the point that , !>eeause of overcrowding, the Blue Point school will have , to be en- larged in any case , and the board believes that \expansion In \ \ a larger segmen t is always more economical. *' The consolidation plan is in ac-« cordance with the recommend a- tion of the Moore commission, that small districts should con- solidate or centralize to provide more efficient sch ool systems, Mr. Dodge said. \We have projected the esti- mated costs of future expansion , \ he said , \ and we found a con- siderable saving- in favor of con- solidation with Bayport. \ Construction , under the present plan , of a K-6 school in Bayport would relieve congestion in the Blue Point elementary school by making it possible to send\Blue Point seventh and eighth grad- ers to the Bayport High school , he said. Next step, he said , would be to build an addition to the present Blue Point school to make room for two classrooms for the kindergarten and each of the first six grades. The consolidation plan calls for an eventual three-part building- program. The first step would be construction of an $800 , 000 ele- mentary school in Bayport , to clear the present Bayport build- ing f or high school use only. Next would be a $200 , 000 addi- tion to the Blue Point school , making it a double kindergarten | through sixth grade building. Last phase of the building pro- gram would be construction of a $300 , 000 addition to Bayport I High school. Citizens ' Report To help residents of the Bay.
