PROBABLY THE BEST THING
AEIER ALL.


In the news columns OF this paper
today II is announced that the state
hoard OF education has elected f. II.
Worrell OF Norfolk. superintendent OF
schools for Newport News. 10 succeed
Superintendent w. c. Morton.
Under ordinary circumstances, the
neople OF this city would be justified
In making a bitter protest against THIS
action on the part Of the State board.
Probably there are not half a dozen
people In the city who ever heard OF
MFR. Worrell. and no one here was
given the slightest intimation that ne
was liable 20 be made superintendent.
The existing conditions here are far
from ordinary, however, and perhaps
when the matter has been carefully
considered Newport News VIII con
clude that after all there Is no rea-
son for protesting. As has been stat
ed Mr. Worreli is an unknown guam
tity here, but II he is capable educa-
tor who can handle the local situa-
ton. the state board probably pursued
the wisest course and the course best
for the interests of the Newport News
school system. In selecting him.
Under Superintendent Morton the
local school system has gone forward
and won the expressed approval oil
the state authorities. and the super
iptendent himself has satisfied the
public SO well that he was given unan-
imcus endorsement for reappointment
by the three patrons leagues. On
the other hand, Prof. Morton Is very de-
cidely persona non grata to the board
of school trustees. Not single one
of the seven members OF the board
would agree to endorse him for re-
election and Ave Of them made an ac-
tive fight against him. declaring that
IL he should be reelected they would
Immediately prefer charges and at
tempt to have him removed. In view
OF tneSt CcuuitiotS, ~ 10 "i"i"Se go
possible to imagine that harmony
could have been restored had Prof.
Morton been named to succeed him
self. And with the superintendent
and the board at loggerheads, the
schools would be obliged 20 suffer.
Therefore the State board. naturally,
hardly could be expected to reflect
Prof. Morton.
Prof. James F. Allan of Eikins.
W. ". who was formally endorsed by
the local board. was deemed ineligible
for the appointment because he is
not voter in the State.
There were two candidates from
this city besides Prof. Morton-Prof.
Willis A Jenkins AND Col f. w. Hun
man. The latter apparently made
no very hard fight for the ONCE. and
sent in his application unaccompanied
by any special endorsements. Prof.
Jenkins had the enforcement OF five
members of the local board. but for
reasons known to the public IL was
never generally believed here that his
application would be seriously con-
sidered by the State board
What. then, was the State board
TO do. Newport News did not offer
a candidate that could be considered
the man for the Dace. under the cir
cumstances. therefore there was only
one thing to be done. and that was
what the state board did.
