Graham, county super intendent of public instruction, yes terday gave out a summary of the sur vey made by the, Peabody representa tives ln which the points of outstand ing interest were discussed and ex plained. Major Graham did not go into lengthy detail, but he covered the building program recommended, which will probably necessitate the bond is sue, the needs of the schools, and con solidations that would raise the stan dard of certain units of the county sys- he statement of Major Graham fol lows: "A building program that will in volve the expenditure of large sums of public money should possess certain qualities which will guarantee the safety of the investment. The program should cover a period of years and should provide an adequate physical plant for the ever Increasing school population. The buildings should bo of permanent and, substantial charac ter and conform td the approved stan dards of school architecture. The pro gram should be in harmony with the plan of organization and administra tion of the system. It should also bo held within the limits of reasonable economic restrictions. "The proposed plan of organization is what is commonly known as the six three -three plan. That-Is six years of elementary school, three of intermedi ate or junior high schoyi, and three years ofsenior high school. This plan is now recognized by- school authori ties as best adapted to meet the spe cial needs of boys and girls in the pe' riod of adolescence. , The intermediate school had fully demonstrated its use fulness. "The actual 'construction should be completed in three to five years; but the program provides for normal growth over a period of ten years. The new structures will provide for addi tions which may be required for a la ter program. Need of City School at the same time the heatrwater, toi let systems and fire protection should be Improved!' The playground space at the new. hierh school needs to be en larged to provide for an athletic field. "Delgadoj At Delgado two rooms ln a. mill cottage are being used for class rooms. They are bv no means suitable This school should have two additional class rooms and an auditorium. The basement should be enlarged and drinking fountains provided. The heat ing plant will need to be enlarged. -Junior high school: "Within three years normal growth, stimulated by the new building and broader courses, will fill the new high school and by that time the Junior high school should be ready to take over the first year of the high school and the sev enth and. eighth grades from the ele mentary schools. This will then pro vide for a second period of growth for ail schools. Peabody: The urgent need for a modern school' building for negro chll- idren on the north side of the city is recognized by all. The new Peabody school should be a structure, of the 'arger type embracing 17 class rooms and including facilities for beginning vocational training in the upper ele mentary grades. "Wllllston Industrial: The Wllllston Industrial school needs an additional building so tlmt the present building may be used .entirely" for class room work and the new building provide adequate facilities for the industrial training which is recognized as desir able and most helpful to colored stu dents. The report of the survey com mission shows the type of instruction desired but such 'is of necessity greatly limited by present meager equipment and lack of space. The needs require a building of 11 rooms. Including shops for boys and household arts for girls. "Winter Park: "The building at Winter Park has recently been enlarg ed by two rooms but already the school is again filled to capacity. There is now need for two rooms, an audito rium, and the installation of a heating plantX "East Wilmington: "Three centers of consolidation are poposed: One. at EasJ Wilmington to eliminate ,the three one-teacher schools . at Middle Sound, Scott's Hill and Acorn Branch.

There is a new two-room school already on the East Wilmington site and the con solidates would require six new rooms with auditorium. It would provide i space for domestic science, manual I training and agriculture. The site should be Increased ln size twenty acres.
