With the possibility that failure to
act might involve a prosecution for
malfeasance in office. the Board of
Education tonight directed that no
pupil shall be admitted to the public
schools with the new term opening un-
less the scholar shall show satisfactory
evidence Of successful vaccination.
This action was taken upon state
men made by DR.. w. K. Foster, secre-
tary of the State Board of Health,
who appeared before the school direc-
tors this evening, supplementing let
ter he recently wrote on the subject OF
vaccination with an oral explanation.
Secretary Foster said the law was
on the statute books requiring the vac
cination of public school children, that
it had been upheld by the Supreme
Court and that the State Board of
Health would be compelled to enforce
it. DR.. Foster explained that 1t was
impossible for him not 10 recognize the
existence of the law.
What could happen if the Board of
Education should not enforce the law?'
queried Director A. H. Pratt.
We'll, the board might be proceeded
against for malfeasance in office" re-
piled DIR. Foster.
In this view of the situation the di
rectors decided to re-enact the rule
that was adopted six months ago but
had been rescinded because of much
protest from parents who objected to
the vaccination of their children.
Director Hardy reported that the
Board of Supervisors would receive
bids for the S960,0O0 school bond issue
up to July at 10 o'clock a. m, and
would open them at II a. m. The
bonds will be sold for delivery Sep
