U.S. Capitol
Page School
Hoping For
New Quarters
By JANE EADS
WASHINGTON ? Every time
they pass the slowly rising struc
ture on Capitol Hill that is to be
the new Senate Office Building.
Principal Henry de Keyser and
his Capitol Page School pupils
keep their Angers crosaed.
A suite of six rooms plus an
office have been set aside in. the
new building for the high school
level classes. Arst organized in
1931. Up to now it has been held
in makeshift quarters, first in the
basement of the Capitol Building
and more recently in the third
floor former cafeteria of the Con
gressional Library. De Keyser and
Mis boys fear something may hap
pen to take their new quarters
away from them.
The school for the SO pages of
the Senate. House and Supreme
Court, ranging in age from 14 to
18 was set up so the boys would
not lose out on their high school
courses. Classes hegin at 6:30
a.m., and continue through 10 30.
when the boys go to work.
The school, is accredited by the
Middle States Assn. Costs are
paid by the District of Columbia.
Though parents and sponsors
can keep a check on the boys
scholastic standing through report 1
cards issued to both, considerable '
concern is being expressed over
their lack of supervision during '
their out-of-school, off-job hours. 1
Several members of Congress in '
the past have introduced legisla
tion to set up a dormitory or home.
Rep. Ruth Thompson <R-Mich>
says she will introduce another
bill recommending supervised
bousing under one roof. "These
boys mostly come from out in the
sticks and suddenly And them
selves on their own with money
galore," she said. "They're not
vicious, or bad. It's a matter of
getting them properly adjusted to
an entirely different life."
Rep. Charles E. Bennett (D-Fla),
who introduced the original leg
islation, says it is up to members
of Congress who bring the boys i
here to' assume responsibility for
their housing, supervision and
some discipline. No one, he says,
supervises their eating, free-time
occupation, regulation of hours or
physical well-being.
