STATE BOARDS HEAL
THEIR SORE SPOTS
Normal Board and Board of
Control ReconciIed-NormaI
School Faculties Elected

yesterday afternoon at the state capt.
tol When explanations had been made
on both sides good feeling obtained.
The normal board reelected c. A.
Morey, of Winona, as its president, and
| selected the presidents and faculties Of
the five normal schools. All the presi-
dents of the schools were re-elected
and comparatively few changes were
made in the faculties. No more than
a half-dozen vacancies were left un-
filled in the faculties. and these will be
cared for before the schools open early
in September.
The reconciliation between the two
boards, whose interests have at times
confiicted, came as the result of a call
by y. b. Gould, Of the board of control,
on the normal board, which was in ses-
sion IN the small room in the board of
controFs suite in the state capitol Judge
Gould appeared to suggest to the nor
maj board that some representative Of
the normal board approve the esti-
mates for the various schools.
Chairman Jacobson and S. w.
Leavett, the other members of the
board of control, were called to the
meeting, and Chairman Jacobson said
that 1T was no reflection on the normal
board to say thatit was desired to have
the Judgment of somebody outside of
that board on their estimates It was
Well to have estimates made before
purchases were made. He suggested
that the president and secretary of the
normal board constitute committee to
make these estimates.
Estimates Will Be Scrutinized
The suggestion was incornorated into
motion by J. L. Washburn, of Du-
luth, that the president and secretary
OF the normal board constitute an exec
utiVe committee which shall examine
and approve estimates, after approval
by the president and resident director
OF the normal school for which the ex-
pend1ture is to be made, and when so
approved by the committee shall stand
approved by the normal board. The
motion prevailed without opposition
and Washburn made the first move in
the conciliatory programme when he
said:
This is the first opportunity since I
have been a member of the normal
board that have had to see these two
boards face to face. On behalf of the
Duluth school, / am pleased to say that
there are no differences. In the main
we have got on nicely and pleasantly
Chairman Jacobson, of the board of
courteous. He replied: There should
ex1stathe best of feeling and there is
no reason why we should not work to-
gether hafmoniouslyss so long as the law
makes 1t our duty to work together.
This action today will eliminate any
suspicion in the future that there has
not been proper scrutiny of these esti-
mates
Talks of f,the Board Of Control
President Morey, Of the normal
board, was willing to admit that there
had been Improvement in the situation
as between the boards. "Our relations
in the past two years, since we became
somewhat adjusted, have been pleas
ant" he said. "Winona school has felt,
since We got on terms of distinguished
consideration, after all the arrange
ment is not very bad one. But" and
the Winona man remembered the
Maine" and spoke with deliberate en-
phaSis, "the board of control should
have nothing to do with matters of
policy in the schools; these are matters
which the normal board contends it has
solely the right to regulate, and there
is nothing in either the law or In good
sense by which the board of control
can abrogate to itself any control over
that part of the administration of the
normals. There should be a sharp line
of demarcatfon."
Chairman Jacobson responded by ad-
mftting the justice of Morey's position
to a degree, but said that good sense
would probably prevent anything like
friction in the future between the erst-
while hostile boards, and then the
board of control retired from the COM
mittee room.

presidents Of the schools and the usual

terday and approved. The following
