It should come as no surprise, therefore, that a subcommittee of EDITORIAL the Boston School Committee Wednesday night recommended that 10 new police officers be hired and that the proposed "safety inter­ vention team" be equipped with portable metal detectors to locate weapons.

It still has relevance, however, especially with respect to problems presently confronting the Boston Public School system. This week School Committee member Joseph M. Casper (South End-South Boston) unveiled a chart showing the number of weapons discovered at 10 city schools in the past five months. While Madi-. son Park High School topped the list with 46 weapons cases, others also came in with alarming totals: English High (31), Hyde Park High (22), Brighton High (17) and Humphrey Occupational (14). Cleveland Middle School, Charlestown High, South Boston High, Washington Irving Middle School and Edward Middle School all had between 10 and 12 instances of pupils carrying weapons. This came on top of earlier indications that, since the time Boston schools opened last September through January 22, 196 knives and 298 other "dangerous objects" were confiscated from students.

The city Licensing Board has reject­ ed the Allston Deli's application for a license to sell beer and wine because of owner Aram Narinian's "lack of con­ cern for the licensing process," said Licensing Board Secretary Tom Stanton. Last Friday's decision comes in the wake of a heated hearing two days earlier in which N arinian admitted sell­ ing beer and wine at his small grocery store without a license for the last four years. At the hearing, Narinian's attorney claimed that N arinian had not known that the deli's liquor license had expired in 1982. He said that Narinian had learned his liquor license was invalid Laval Wlleon ten. Hamilton students, "You control your destiny." only when he tried to sell his store.
