HIGH SCHOOL GIRLS STRIKE.
Declare Action Of Faculty In Color
Rushing Case Unreasonable.

When the faculty of the Springfield
high school announced that the members
of the graduating class were suspended
for color rushing il was the sign for
sympathetic strike by nine girl members
of the class. They left. school and say
they will not return until the boys are
reinstnted. The boys are alleged to have
participated In color rush several weeks
ago, and the faculty decided that each
member of the class was equally guilty
and should be expelled. This announce
ment came as n surprise, and the girls
declared the decision was unjust. The
faculty has experienced considerable trou-
bic with the pupils during the last month.
Six boys who were expelled recently were
allowed to return after receiving rcpri-
