".......

.. ———-

.............

The following report was read: Report of Buildings and Grounds Committee on Building Projects

BUILDING PROJECTS February 1, 1937

To the Board of Education:

The recommendations which follow are made as a result of interviews with Colonel Horatio B. Hackett, director of the Public Works Administration, Washington, D. C.; a survey of the time needed to complete the projects as given by the architects; a survey of the imperativeness of the need in each instance, and after consultation with members of the Buildings and Grounds Committee of the Board of Education. First; Since your Committee received very much encouragement from P. W. A. officials concerning the availability of funds in the near future, especially for small projects; and since your committee was also advised to divide our one large project into several smaller projects in order that the distribu- ; tion of Federal monies may be made more flexible, thus making it highly pro- I bable that certain projects may be benefitted by Federal funds; j IT IS RECOMMENDED that the large project be broken up into smaller units in order that construction may begin at once in case Federal money is received for any one project.

| ' j

Second: Since all original building projects which were included in the five mill levy voted last spring are very much needed as of the opening of school in the fall of 1937 and should not be delayed beyond that timfe;

IT IS FURTHER RECOMMENDED that the contracts for the erection of each and every project Included in the five mill levy be awarded in sufficient time for the completion of the building on or before September 1, 1937, and that the architect for each project shall be asked to determine the date on which contracts must be let in order to assure completion by that time.

THE GIST OF THE ABOVE RECOMMENDATIONS IS MERELY THIS: THAT THE BOARD OF EDUCATION HEREBY DECIDES TO COMPLETE ALL BUILDINGS FOR WHICH FUNDS HAVE BEEN VOTED IN ORDER THAT THEY MAY BE OCCUPIED BY PUPILS AT THE OPENING OF THE NEXT SCHOOL YEAR, AND ALSO AT THE SAME TIME TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ANY FEDERAL FUNDS WHICH MAY BE AVAILABLE BEFORE IT IS NECESSARY TO BEGIN ACTUAL CONSTRUCTION. Third: Irving School: The disastrous fire which destroyed Irving School recently has made it imperative that we house children of that school in some temporary quarters for the remainder of the school year. The frame annex on the Irving School grounds, formerly used for school rooms, is being reconditioned to house all grades. The new quarters will not be as adequate or as comfortable as the large building, but we feel the arrangement will be sufficient to meet the present emergency. IT IS RECOMMENDED, however, that the Board of Education immediately institute plans for a permanent building on the Irving School grounds.

Respectfully submitted, C. K. Reiff, Superintendent of Schools

BUILDINGS AND GROUNDS COM.

It was moved by Mr. Pric-e and seconded by Mr. Spivey that the recommendation of the Buildings and Grounds Committee be concurred in. Motion carried.

The room will be used during the day for the Music and Speech Arts Classes, thus releasing a class-room in the main building for other classes. In the evening the room will be available for the use of Boy Scout Troops, Girl Reserve Groups, Neighborhood Clubs, etc.

"It is the plan to sell the apartment house just east of the old Franklin Building, the six room house on the alley, and the one-story cottage on Reno Avenue. The one-story cottage on California Avenue will have to be moved about eight feet east,- to make room for the Gymnasium, and will be used for the Girls’ Dormitory. The two-story apartment house on California Avenue will be moved into the space on Reno Avenue where the onestory cottage now stands, and will be used for the Boys’ Dormitory.

"Mr. Schlosser has made a tentative estimate of the cost of necessary repairs and finishings and we think our budget will cover the cost of improvements. "It will be necessary to have all wires through the grounds removed and the alleys closed, before we can start building.

The following communication was read:

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma April 22, 1937

Mr. Otto Rose, President Board of Education Third and Walnut Streets Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

My dear Sir: We are not unmindful of the tremendous importance of the proper discharge of the duties of the Members of the Board of Education of Oklahoma City, nor are we unmindful of the honor and confidence and obligation imposed upon us by the voters of Oklahoma City in electing us as Members of this Board.

Resignations of Mr. Jone§ Mr. Dorsey and Mr. Earp

We entered upon the discharge of our duties, when elected, fully intending to give our time and attention, and to exert our best efforts in furthering and protecting the interests of the school children of Oklahoma City, and in the management and control of the vast properties and monies belonging to the school fund, but during the last several years the majority of the Board, as organized, has persistently, in our opinion, pursued policies which are against the best interests of the schools of the City; have violated at least the spirit of the law by letting contracts for large sums without competitive bidding, and in spending and appropriating the monies belonging to the fund for purposes not needed, and in showing rank and improper favpritism in the purchase of supplies and other expenditures of the fund, against all of which we have continuously and consistently protested but without avail. The operation and conduct of the majority of the Board was made an issue in the recent campaign. The members guilty of this improper conduct, as we view their duties, were reelected and the action of the Board since the election gives evidence that it is the purpose of that majority to continue the practices of the last two years, and against which we have protested. We deem it a useless waste of time and effort to continue to serve on the Board. And, as a further protest against the actions of the Board, referred to above, we hereby tender our resignations effective at once. .

Respectfully submitted,

Signed:

E. E. Dorsey Ancel Earp Fred Jones

Ross N. Lillard Mrs. J. S. Poole

The.meeting was called for the purpose of receiving a report from the Education Committee and for the transaction of other business requiring consideration by the Board.

A request was received for the use of a room in the Irving School Building (frame annex) for the teaching of band and orchestra classes by the Educational Branch of the W. P. A. during the summer months. Upon motion of Mr. Spivey, seconded by Mr. Knight, this request was granted. The following communication was read:

March 27, 1937

Mr. J. G-. Stearley, Clerk-Business Manager Board of Education Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Dear Mr. Stearley:

We have been notified that the carpentersâ€™ scale will be $9.00 per day beginning April 1, 1937. There are two extra carpenters employed at this time. In view of the amount of work accumulating and the prospects for the coming year, it would seem advisable to employ these two men regularly, provided there is money with which to pay their salaries. They can be employed for the balance of this year at $140.00, each, per month. Beginning April 1, extra carpenters would cost the Board of Education $234.00, each, per month. Therefore, I would suggest that we take advantage of this saving in the amount of $96.00 per month, per man, by employing the following carpenters: Mr. W. A. Meyers and Mr. L. C. Mades.

Article VI, Rule 7: Add ’’This method of punishment shall not be used until after consultation with a parent or parents of the pupil, (p. 32)

Article VI, Rule 17T I am recommending that following the word "death", the following be inserted: "or serious illness", (p. 3^) .

Article VI, Rule 21: In order that conflicting terms may be avoided the use of the word "probationary teacher" as we now use it in our system be changed to "apprentice" inasmuch as the work "probationary" applies to teachers who are serving their firstthree years before becoming regular teachers under the new Tenure Law, thus Rule 21 would be changed as follows: "or have done an amount of one year of probationary work"'to read "or have done an amount-of one year’s apprentice teaching as herein described", (p.35)

By the same token, paragraph four of Rule 21, p. 35 should be changed from "for this service the probationary teacher shall be paid $50.00 per month" to "for this service the apprentice teacher shall be paid $50.00 per month". It was moved by Mr. Fezler and seconded by Mr. Price that the recommendation of the Superintendent be.concurred in and upon roll call the motion carried unanimously. The following report was read:

The amounts are listed per month and for the year of nine months. The committee will be glad to assume the responsibility of making adjustments in these amounts when the receipts seem to justify such adjustments.

MEETING. OF DECEMBER 13, 1937 THE BOARD OF EDUCATION OF THE CITY OF OKLAHOMA CITY, OKLAHOMA, MET IN SPECIAL SESSION IN THE BOARD ROOM, ADMINISTRATION BUILDING, MONDAY,

DECEMBER 13, 1937, AT TEN O'CLOCK A. M.

PRESENT:

Otto Rose, President J. G. Stearley, Clerk

Day Fezler Earl J. Johnson Robin Knight Ross N. Lillard R. H. Price Moses Schilling Ed W. Spivey ABSENT:

Mrs. J. S. Poole -

The President stated that the meeting had been called to receive the report of a special committee which he had requested to make an Investigation of the unfortunate occurrence at Westwood School on December 6 th when the metal lath and plaster ceiling fell in one of the classrooms. Mr. Rose also stated that other matters of business coming before the Board would be considered. The following report was read:

Oklahoma City, Oklahoma December 7, 1937

Board of Education Oklahoma City

Gentlemen:

With reference toâ€™ the falling of a metal lath and plaster ceiling in one of the class rooms in the Westwood School,please permit me to place the following'statement on record for the information of the Board of Education. The original four class room building was built in the year 1919 and as the money available was Insufficient to erect a completely fireproof building suitable for a second story addition, the type of construction very generally used for one story schools was adopted; walls, floors and partitions of non-combustible material, wood joist roof, metal lath and plaster ceiling s and tar and gravel roofing. Such a building with sufficient exits being entirely safe in case of fire or panic.

The addition in which the accident occured was built in 1923 and followed the same type of construction. The Architects were Layton and Forsyth, the General Contractor Charles M. Dunning Construction Company and the sub-contractor for lathing and plastering the Maidt Plastering Company. On a flat metal lathed ceiling plastering is applies in a scratch coat, brown coat and finish coat, a total thickness of 3/^" being the standard practice of the trade, conforming to our specifications and to our superintendent's instructions on the job. Examination of the fallen plaster will show that a good part of it was more than two inches thick with one inch of this thickness, the Portland Cement scratch coat, forced through the lath.

The fact that the nailing of the lath sustained this very heavy overload for 1*+ years is clear evidence that the construction was properly carried out up to the point of applying the plaster itself.

All the material is of excellent quality and there is no sign of deterioration in nails, lath or plaster and in my opinion the cause of the failure was entirely due to the excessive thickness of plaster applied to this ceiling.

rj <7. .*• <0 >■'

The nails in the lath were provided to sustain a load of 3/^" plaster with a factor of safety of two - in other words in a ceiling of li" the nails would still be perfectly safe as specified. We find, however, that the material was of excellent quality, but that the Individual plasterer who put this plaster in place, contrary to the interest of his employer, forced through the meshes of this lath, plaster to the thickness of 1” in general. It is inconceivable that this could be done. This deposited on the,top side of the lath more weight than was intended to be put on the lath in the finished plaster; then the two coats that were required to be put on the scratch coat were put on to the thickness of an inch or more, making the plaster as shown in photographs generally 2" thick and some places even more. This is so unusual and so against the interest of the plastering contractor that no one can know Just why it was done. There could only be two reasons - one would be ignorance and the other would be the desire of the individual workman to make his job last longer.

Every precaution has been taken by the Architects and also by the Board of Education to guard against defective workmanship by the use of experienced superintendents and inspectors during building operations and in the maintenance of the buildings of the system. To detect such a condition as is found in this ceiling an inspector would have had to watch each individual plasterer continuously, which he cannot possibly do.

From what I can learn there was no cracking or evidence of the conditions of the ceiling visible from the room before it gave way. The Board knows the reputation of the Charles M. Dunning Construction Company and the Maidt Plastering Company as Contractors of wide experience and high standing in the Construction Business.

At the time the Westwood School was constructed fiber board was not available for school ceilings. Celotex, one of the first products of this class, was just being put on the market at a price prohibitive of use except where essential for acoustical purposes. When the cost of fiber board made its use possible as a substitute for plaster all class room and auditorium ceilings of the Oklahoma City schools have been constructed of that material. This was for its quieting effect and not because we considered a plaster ceiling unsafe. Plaster ceilings have been used ever since, buildings were constructed and is a material that is in general use throughout the world.

This report confirms my verbal statement made to the Board immediately after the accident. Very truly yours,

Signed

LAYTON AND FORSYTH By S. A. Layton

Report of Special Committee Received and Placed on File

Report of Tax Protests

Attorney Instructed to File Notice of Appeal

It was moved by Mr. Lillard that the report of the Committee, as read, be received and placed on file. Mr. Johnson seconded the motion which was declared to have carried.

At this time the President stated that if any members of the Board were not satisfied with this report he would make any further investigation which the Board might wish to have made..

The Attorney reported that in the Court of Tax Review protests of approximately $100,000.00 of appropriated items of the General and Separate Fund Budgets had been defeated and only a matter of $^,000.00 had been upheld on account of the method of figuring the 10$ reserve in connection with State Income Tax of former years. Mr. Wilkins stated that if the Board wished to appeal this decision affecting the $^,000.00, notice must be filed within ten days from the date of December 2nd. It was moved by Mr. Lillard and seconded by Mr. Spivey that the Attorney be Instructed to file the proper notice of appeal to protect the record, but bot to appeal unless the protestants filed notice of their Intention to appeal from the judgment in the Board’s favor on the appropriated items. Motion carried.

Audit Covering Scruggs 1 Accounts Received

Mr. McKenzie then read in full the following: Oklahoma City, Oklahoma April 12, 193S

Mr. Otto Rose, President Board of Education Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

Dear Sir: Mr. Frank Wilkins, Malcolm McKenzie, Edward Box and Ray Watson, and myself, as attorneys representing the Board of Education in the matter of the defalcation of Mr. Scruggs, formerly treasurer, have received copy of the report of Mr. Prigmore. We have made a diligent investigation to determine all the facts and circumstances bearing upon the misappropriation of the school funds by Mr, Scruggs. We have had conferences with the representatives of the surety and bonding companies and the bank interested in this matter. The representatives of the surety and bonding companies and the bank have not concluded their investigation but expect to be in a position within the next twenty-four hours to advise us definitely of the course of procedure they propose to take and of the commitments, if any, they will make.

The representatives of the surety and bonding companies and the bank have all expressed a desire and willingness to fully cooperate in this matter. The audit contains detailed information reflecting the exact manner and method pursued by Mr. Scruggs in diverting funds of the school board. The audit contains either original or photostatic copies of the documents that have an immediate and controlling bearing upon the liability of one or more of the parties interested in this case. It contains other information that is of such a nature that, if made public, it might interfere with the speedy adjustment of this controversy to the advantage of the board,, The audit does conclusively show that Mr. Prigmore fully performed his duties as auditor in verifying the accounts and funds intrusted to Mr. Scruggs. The information contained in the audit above referred to, in our judgment, will be sufficient to fully protect the school board independent of the personal assets of Mr. Scruggs. Mr. Prigmore started on this audit several days before any irregularity was known and, in preparing the audit, discovered the irregularities. Mr. Prigmore has very properly and wisely treated this information as confidential, and by so doing we will be enabled to conduct our conference and negotiations with the interested parties to the very best advantage.

Communicatior from Special Attorney John Barry

Communication ?rom Special Lttorney rohn Barry Continued

With reference to the receivership case now pending. We do not feel that the board should commit itself as to the action it will take in this regard. We are hopeful, and believe, that within the next few days we will have either responsible and satisfactory commitments that will fully protect the school board for Mr. Scruggs’ defalcation, or we will have an agreement from the representatives of all interested parties as to the course of procedure that should be followed. Pending this, no action should be taken by the school board.

Respectfully submitted. (Signed)

John Barry

John Barry Statement of Mr. Me Kenzie
