rs Schools Close Soon


The Board of Education has decided to
take no action in the case of the fourteen
scholars Of the Eastern High School who
were dismissed for the day on Thursday
because they entered the class rooms at
tired in shirt waists and minus coats.
While the action of the principal. NJ. f. f.
SWartzell, is not wholly endorsed by the
members OF the board, it is considered
wise to let the matter drop, as the school
year ends within few days and the board
will not hold a meeting in time to con-
slider the matter.
Six of the fourteen young men appeared
before Francis r. Lane, Director of High
Schools. and entered complaint against
the action of their principal. They were
clad exactly as when sent home, cited
their troubles, and asked for a decision.
Mr.. Lane upheld the action of I! prin-
cipal and in a kindly way advised the
students to wear their coats for a few
days until the school year closed.

The trouble occurred while the Flag Day
exercises were being held at the Central
High School Thursday. Principal Swartz-
ell heard that many of the pupils were
without coats and at once issued an or
der that these must leave the hall and
go home, returning when they had dom
ned their coats.

door of the hall and picked out all of
those having no coats. There were four
