Randolph, Nov. l3-Sheriff Sprague Of
Brookfleld was In town to-day and served
papers on four high school boys. Fred
Fairbanks. Harry Morton. Martin and
William Connolly. The boys have been
bound over to the Orange county court
and bail fixed at $500 each which will be

For a time the school boys have
had society Of some sort known as the
Iodine club" and new members were
taken with, or without their consent.
and were considered full fledgcd members
after being treated with the Iodine stamp.
A few days ago the boys tried to initiate

Fits put up Il tight and was handled
roughly and tn, Sc arrests followed for as

The Iodine club was formed two weeks
ago nv several of the se,f-ackrowledged
leaders among the school boys. Martin
Connolly, an lS-year-old youth, was the
prime leader. His assistants were MS

same age. The purpose of the club SEEM
ed to be only vicicrsness. One by one the
Youngsters were caught III the lavatory
Of the school and here the leaders would
paint the back. chest and abdomen OF
the new and unwilling member Of their
club. Funny ard in same cases iewd pic

nifty" rs some called it. The high school
has an attendance of rs boys. all Of
whom except f,ur have been initiated Into
the club.
Last Tuesday evening the leaders OF
the club captured Andrew Fits the IS
years old son of farmer living near
Brookneld. This boy had always held
himself aloof from the Connolly boys and
they expected to make him join under
any circumstances. He was captured and
taken prisoner He refused to be strip
ped to allow the pictures painted on his
body. He fought his opponents with the
result that he received badly swollen
eve cuts on his face and other bodily
injuries He Immediately reported what
had occurred and his indignant father
reported the affair which resulted in the
arrest of the four boys
Late this afternoon proceedings were
begun by attorneys to have Norton
