New Seaman School
To House Overflow
From Archer Street
Giblyn Announces
Plan in Talk to
Northwest Civics
Overflow pupils from the Archer
st. school are to be housed in the
new Seaman ave. school when it 1
opened in the fall. Leo F. Giblyn
president of the Board of Educa-tion,
advised the members .of the
Northwest Civic Association at
their monthly meeting in the Hose
Co. 4 firehouse Monday night. He
explained three classes would be
shirted to the new structure, but
added it had not been decided from
-which grade they would be taken.
Mr. Giblyn said he believed it
would be necessary to purchse a
site for a school to house children
from the kindergarten through the
third grade in the extreme southern
end of the village. He reported
also that plans were being prepared
for thft'school to be erected on the
Merrick rd. and Washington st.
plot, but said probably several sets
would be drawn before any were
adopted,
The school board president also
said the present Seaman ave.
school would be retained after it
has been ..vacated by the pupils it
now houses to move into the new
building to be used to accommo-date
the overflow of other schools
Jn the village.
He pointed to the fact 105 homes
are being erected in the northwest-ern
section, and said that that 15
children of families who now occu-pay-
12 completed structures were
enrolled in the Seaman ave. school,
as an indication that it would not
be long before all the rooms In the
new structure would have to be
used for children from the district.
Mr. Giblyn pointed also lo the
high birthrate prevailing in the
village, saying that while 324 chil- j
dren were born in 39-10, the number
increased to 412 In 19-JG and in
1947, the last year for which figures
are available, the total was 578.
Vice-president Kenneth E. Vought
presided in the absence of Presi-dent
Ralph L. Marshall.

INTRODUCES
... Wilbert F. De Mott
"Ask Bert De Mott" . . . Sooner or later, whether you'are planning
to remodel your home, or build a skyscrajwr, you will hear the state-ment,
"Ask Bert De Mott." This is so, not because he is a spreme
judge who must pass decision on all building projects, but because he
is a walking encyclopedia of the rules, regulations and ordinances that
are necessary in a modern, last-growing city, and an excellent official
to be Superintendent of the De-partment
of
of Freeport.
* * *
When first seeing Mr. De Mott
one is easily deceived, for he
looks more like a-quiet country
doctor, than a man who's whole
life has been actively engaged
in construction and architectur-al
projects. Bert is a true Long
Islander, born in Baldwin sixty
years ago. Then, however, Long
Island was not the highly popu-lated
section it is today, but con-sisted
of farms and villages.
When he first came to Freeport
the population was only about
five thousand people.
* * *
Bert De Mott was graduated
from Baldwin High School and
attended the nationally famous
Pratt Institute where he majored
Stores to Remain Open
Evenings Until Easter
Most of the stores on Main st.
and Merrlck'rd. will keep open
nights starting Friday and continu-ing
until Easier, Jack Green an-nounced
today for the Merchants
Division of the Freeport Chamber
of Commerce. This, he said, is for
the convenience of residents of
Freeport and neighboring communi-ties
.who otherwise would be unable
to do t h e i r Easter shopping here.
All the Mores still have an abund-ance
of merchandise from which to
select. They are reasonably
priced, following the trend t h a t has
set In throughout, $e nation to
lower the cost of merchandise gen-erally.

LENTEN TALK TO KIWANIS
The Rev. Roy Brennan, pastor of
St. Marks M.E. Church, Rockville
Centre, gave the address at the
weekly supper of the Kiwanis
Club of Freeport In the Elks club-house
yesterday. He gave a talk
appropriate to the Lenten season
and Easter.

in Architectural Engineering.
Prior to the eleven years with
the Freeport Department of
Buildings, he was associated
with the American Bridge Com-
-pany, Construction Estimator for
the T h o m p kins Contracting
lompany, Project Engineer, Curtis Aircraft and Motor Co., Superintend-nt
and Manager of Rogers Airlines. It was with this latter concern
.hat he designed and built a flying boat which won him a coveted
Department of Commerce Certificate, (now CAA.) A great deal of his
tnowledge in aerodynamics and structural engineering has been acquired
by self-study, experience and experiments. » » • »
The Department of Buildings, especially in these days of expansion,
s one of the busiest units in Freeport's municipal administration. It
must advise future builders, advice which prevents future expensive
rrors, enforce laws pertaining to the safety of structures, ffre hazards,
oning ordinances, plumbing codes, Installation of oil burners, and erec-ion
of signs. It must also oversee places of public assembly, Industrial
nd commercial buildings, as required by the laws of the New York
state Department of Labor. AH these duties are performed capably and
efficiently under 'the fine supervision of Wilbert De Mott, yet with a
staff of only three other men, Mr. Young, Mr. Miller, and Mr. Sellars.
Mr. De Mott is often called on for advice in situations which are unre-lated
to his office, because of his experience and knowledge regarding
the land contour of the village and its multiple' problems.

• Bert De Mott Is. married to the former Mae Raynor (t,he family
well-known Ui Long island for many years) and resides at 28 Leonard
Avenue. Like all men born in this area, his favorite pastime sports
have been h u n t i n g and fishing. He is a member of the Masonic Order,
Spartan Lodge, and the Northeast Civic Association. A quiet friendly
man, but as solid a citizen as can be found in this great Village of
Freeport.
•l '-y # * *
With a full background'in construction, designing and building, Mr.
Wilbert De Mott is truly an excellent official to head this important
department. His twenty-four active years in the contracing business
and his thirty-five years of intimate knowledge of Freeport from Its
infancy stage, have created a wealthy reservoir of knowledge which

The Freeport Red Cross fund
raising campaign to collect $9,400
has passed the two-third mark, Ray
Clements, the Freeport chairman,

house In tho community had been
reached In the solicitation of funds.
The chairman—explained—that.
while gifts had fceen more numer-ous
than a year ago, they had been
smaller, which accounts for the
failure to attain the goal in tho

persons had checks they were plan-ning
