Miss Sarah Scott, Educator, Dies Helped to Establish City's First Public High School in Boro Funeral services will be held tonight for Miss Sarah E. Scott, former principal teacher, who more than a half century ago played a leading role in the establishment in Brooklyn of city's first public high school and the first training school for teachers. The services will be held at 8 Miss Scott's home, 713 Greene" where she died Wednesday. She was 98. Miss Scott was principal of two Brooklyn schools in 1912 when the Board of Education ordered her retirement as the first employe affected by its newly enacted rule requiring the retirement of those who had reached 70.

STORM OF PROTEST The storm of protests raised at the time by friends, pupils and colleagues against the board's action revealed the reverence and esteem in which Miss Scott was held. She was described in an appeal by the Teachers Association as sionally so superior her socially, and profesment would be a distinctive loss to the school system." Today a group of Miss Scott's former pupils paid tribute to her memory. They prepared a statement which said: "She was an inspiration to thousands of teachers and her influence will continue through them. The late Franklin Hooper, former director of the Brooklyn Institute, called Miss Scott the best-loved teacher in our city." She was born on Sept. 25, 1841, in Catskill, N.

and was graduated from the Rev. Dr. Haig's Academy in Hudson. STARTED WHEN 18 In 1860 at the age of 18 she came to the then City of Brooklyn and won her first teaching position in Public School 7, soon transferring to 25. When Vassar College was established in 1865, she became a member of the first staff there, as a professor of mathematics.

Two years later she returned to Brooklyn to serve in Miss Harrison's private school on Clinton and then returned to the public system at Public School 11 on Washington Ave. In 1879, largely because of Miss Scott's efforts, the "Central GramSchool," the first high school in Brooklyn or Manhattan, was established, at Court and Joralemon Sts. was moved to Nostrand Ave. and Halsey St. later, and was renamed Girls High School.

REASON FOR NAME which had 500 pupils. TAUGHT AT ADELPHI In an interview with a Brooklyn Eagle reporter in 1931, Miss Scott laughingly explained that the high school was called a grammar school "to keep from exciting the taxsuch a radical advance in educapayers" who were unprepared for tion and educational costs. In 1885 Miss Scott was a moving spirit in the establishment of the first Training School for Teachers on Berkeley Place, the predecessor of the Maxwell Training School for Teachers. She served as head of the school's faculty until 1904. On her retirement in 1912, Miss Scott was principal of Public School 140 at 60th St.

and 4th an institution with 2,000 students, and also principal of the Bay Ridge Evening High School for Women, During her years at the Training School, Miss Scott also taught classes in psychology and pedagogy Adelphi College. Adelphi conferred on her an honorary degree of Master of Arts. Miss Scott's nearest surviving relatives are Mrs. Margaret Winters, a niece, and Alfred D. Scott, a nephew, both of Springfield, Mass.

Justice Conway Is Appointed To Court of Appeals Post Continued from Page 1 Christmas holidays with his wife and four children at their home at 845 Carroll St. His appointment to the State's highest court is a clearcut indorsement by the Governor of his conduct of the Buffalo inquiry and trials. Justice Conway's name was among those indorsed by Kings County Democratic Leader Frank V. Kelly for the Court of Appeals. BOY SCOUT OFFICIAL Mr.

Conway is president of Brooklyn Council, Boy Scouts of America, a position in which he succeeded the late Supreme Court Justice James C. Cropsey under whose tutelage he had begun his public career 27 years ago. Mr. Cropsey, at that time District Attorney, filled his staff with alert young lawyers, regardless of party politics. Mr.

Cropsey, a Republican, picked Mr. Conway, a Democrat, as an assistant. Assistant District Attorney Conway's record in office caused the next District Attorney, Harry E. Lewis, also a Republican, to reappoint him, Leaving the prosecutor's office in 1920, Mr. Conway was in private law practice until 1928 when he was chosen as the Democratic candidate for Attorney General, losing out to Hamilton Ward in a close contest after much recounting of votes.

His appointment as State Superintendent of Insurance followed, and two years later he became County Judge here. In 1931 he was elected to the Supreme Court, where he has served since. NATIVE BROOKLYNITE Born in Brooklyn 49 years ago, Albert E. Conway was educated at St. John's College and Fordham Law School, During 1918 and 1919 he lectured at Brooklyn Law School.

Justice Conway is a trustee of the Brooklyn Bar Association, a past president of the Emerald Association and is a member of many clubs including the Crescent, Brooklyn, Lake Placid and Seaview. Justice Conway from time to time has been mentioned as a possibility for the Governorship. As State Superintendent of Insurance, in which post he succeeded James A. Beha who had resigned, Mr. Conway instituted several reforms, created a new bureau to make regular inspections and reports on holding firms to protect small investors, and salvaged number of bankrupt motor insurance firms.

His appointment as County Judge followed the resignation of Judge W. Bernard Vause, who later went to prison for using the mails in a stock fraud. Tragedy came into Mr. Conway's life ten years ago when his wife, the former Irene Hewitt, died. Four years later he married Miss Alice O'Neil, a first cousin of his first wife, at a mass in the Church of St.

Gregory attended only by the immediate families, including the jus- 30 tice's four children. 31 30 FOURTH SHIFT IN COURT 70 Justice Conway's new appointment is the fourth shift to take place in the Court of Appeals lineup within two months. Associate Judge Irving Lehman, brother of the Governor, was elected last month to succeed Judge Crane as presiding officer of the State's highest court. It was hoped in local circles that the Governor might appoint a Brooklyn man to succeed Judge Lehman as Associate Judge or to the post of Associate Judge Irving G. Hubbs, who announced several weeks ago that he would retire at the end of this year.

On Dec. 2. however, the Governor made it that he would appoint two up-State judges- -Charles B. Sears of Buffalo, presiding justice of the Appellate Division, Fourth Department, and Edmund H. Lewis of Syracuse, an associate justice on the same bench--to the two places.

It appeared then that the departure from the bench of Judge Crane. who had been a Brooklynite when elected and later moved to Nassau, Dignified Funerals Moderately Priced GEORGE D. CONANT Moadinger Funeral Parlors 1120 Flatbush B'klyn Tel. BUckminster 2-0247 Lt. James Dolan.

DRIVE INTENSIFIED Judge O'Brien's announcement on Dec. 6 that he intended to retire was the signal for a great wave of popular sentiment from all of Long Island and from Staten Island to roll up to Albany for the aappointment of a judge from this district. The campaign was intensified when word spread that powerful forces were seeking to bring the appointment to the Bronx or Manhattan.

The Brooklyn Bar Association, the Queens Bar Association, the Suffolk County Bar Association, the Kings County Bar Association and the Brooklyn Trial Lawyers Association passed resolutions which were sent to the Governor calling for representation of this district in the Court of Appeals. The presidents and leading members of the Nassau County Bar Association and the Richmond County Bar Association sent telegrams to Albany embodying the same request, because time was short and it would be difficult, under the bylaws of those groups, to summon special meetings of the associations. Most prominently mentioned locally as timber for the Court of Appeals post have been Presiding Justice Edward of the Appellate Division, Appellate Division William B. Carswell and Conway. Justice In the Buffalo investigation Justice Conway has battled obstructionism by local politicians and some municipal officials and has already seen 15 persons convicted or plead guilty, with 19 more indicted and awaiting trial.

There has one acquittal. With been, appointment of Justice Conway, Court of Appeals will thee retain its present political line-up of four Democrats and three Republicans. Geographically there will be a change, with the new makeup including four judges from upState and three from the New York City area. The old line -up has been four from the New York metropolitan area and three from up-State. Judge Crane will swear in the new judges.

Conway Appointment Hailed by Prosecutor Buffalo, N. Dec. 22 (AP)-Republican Special Prosecutor Frank G. Raichle said today Governor Lehman's selection of Democratic State Supreme Court Justice Albert Conway for the Court of Appeals is "an excellent appointment." Raichle, prosecuting an inquiry into Buffalo municipal affairs which now is in its third year, said Justice Conway will return from Brooklyn next week to dispose of any matters remaining before him prior to taking his place on the higher court next Jan. 1.
