From Saturdays Daily.
At the special meeting of the Ottunl.
wa board Of school directors neld last
evening, the teachers for all the pub
lie schools in the city save the high
school and the new South Side school
to be built this summer, we're elected.
The matter Of selecting the princi-
pal of the high school and the high
school faculty was deferred for one
week.
While the board has as yet taken no
definite action in the matter of select
ing maj, to take the place Of Prof.
j. e. Roberts, the present principal of
the high school, it was stated last
evening by one of the members that to
all appearances the most likely appli-
cant now before the directors for con-
,sideration is Prof G. E. Reed, princi-
pal of the nigh school at Marietta, O.
1t is understood that practically the
only man under discussion last evening
was Prof. Reed and that an invitation
has been sent him to come to Ottumwa
and confer with the board. Until Prof.
Reed has been here no further action
will, in all probability, be taken. He
is expected to arrive in the city in
less than week.
No change was made in the princi-
pals Of the public schools, the present
heads of the various buildings being
retained. No action was taken In re.
gard to the makeup OF the high school
faculty for next year, this matter be-
ing deferred until the next meeting.
