THE NASHVILLE TENNESSEAN, Auij. 23. 1971 20L nrollments School Area Private Rise increase because of the busing," she said. Ralph Lucas, commandant at Castle Heights Military Academy in Lebanon, said enrollment at CHMA will remain the same but that there has been an increase in inquiries the past two months. He said the increase was most noticeable in the Donelson area which normally sends 10 or 12 students to CHMA.

He said this year there will be about 45 or 50 students from Donelson and that parents from that area have asked CHMA to provide a bus. which will locate a school with grades 5 through 10 in either the Nolensville Road or Franklin Road areas, said that two weeks ago 75 of the people calling his group were concerned about busing. He said now only about 50 of the people are inquiring because of busing and that "the people calling us now seem more concerned about quality education." George T. Hicsk, chairman of the board of directors of Davidson School like Black said that the limited capacity of established private schools offering ''quality education" has been a primary factor in the organization of their school. BUT HE also said that busing was a "catalyst" and that tho "hardest thing to overcome is inertia." Mrs.

Jean B. Yelvington, secretary at St. Paul's Southern Methodist Church, Steve Ange, principal of Woodbine Free Will Baptist Church's Christian Academy, and the Rev. W. II.

Fisher, of Whispering Hills Baptist Church, all said dissatisfaction with public schools was the main reason those schools will start this year. students and the tuitions range from $400 to $1,200 at the various schools. Three of the new schools were organized by private groups and spokesmen for each group said that "quality education" was the primary purpose for starting the new schools. HAROLD W. Black, president of Harding Academy located at Harding Place and Windsor Drive south of Belle Meade, said his group had been considering starting a private school for some time because the established private schools cannot accommodate many people who want their children in private schools.

Black said, "Undoubtedly, busing has influenced the thinking of a lot of parents, but I have no way of evaluating the actual impact of busing on our applications." He acknowledged that "well over 300" inquiries had been made and that 200 out of 232 students were already enrolled three weeks after the first announcements about the school appeared in the Nashville papers. MAX NICHOLS, of the Tennessee Private School They cited "lack of Christian emphasis" and such "problems" as drugs and violence in the public schools as the causes of dissatisfaction. They said they had been considering establishing schools for a number of years. THEY ALSO acknowledged, however, that many of the people inquiring about enrolling their children said busing had made them consider private education. The Rev.

James L. Barton of First Christian Church, which will allow Franklin Road Academy to use their facilities, said the "demand for students to be admitted at nearby Oak Hill School" was the cause for opening the school this year. "We were already full in May because of the overflow from Oak Hill," he said. "But we have literally had hundreds of calls since then which I am sure were predicated on the busing decision." MOST OF the established private schools have preregis-tration or application test deadlines early in the year and consequently hud their full enrollments by April or May.

St. Bernard's had lost 20 of its enrollment for grades 7 through 12 because Father Ryan is now co-educational, according to Sister Marie Serena, R.S.M., principal at St. Bernard.

INGE SMITH, headmistress of Harpeth Academy in Franklin, said some people who called her school said they were willing "to sell everything they had to get their children in Harpeth Academy." She added, "This may sound extreme but frankly some people are hysterical because of the busing situation." Ronald Fay, headmaster at Ensworth School, said Ensworth had been filled for some time before the busing decision but continued to receive numerous calls from people "who have been upset about busing."

Barrett, corporation attorney, both said they had been out of town and did not know details of the strike. A GROUP of tenants, headed by John F. Flowers, called for the rent slrike Saturday, saying.

Ronald Fay, headmaster at Ensworth, said that although Ensworth is only an elementary school "we will need to go into an endowment fund because of the constant need to upgrade facility salaries."
