TRUSTEES ARE FIRM IN
OCEAN PARK SCHOOL ROW
Declare They Will Hire Teachers
to Take Places of Two
Dismissed

OCEAN PARK, June S0-The situa-
tion in the controversy over the dis
missal of two teachers from the city
school remains the same today, not
withstanding a meeting of citizens and
school trustees lasting three hours was
held last night and the matter was
argued from all sides. The young wo-
men, Miss Kathryn A. Turney and
Miss Adelia Adams, are still defiant
and their friends say they are not
yet done with their endeavors for re-
instatement.
The majority of the hundred or more
women and men at the meeting found
opportunity to say a word of two in
favor of the teachers, while School
Trustees w. NJ. Kendall, Bryon G.
Hanna and Mrs. Gerson Goldsmith, de-
Tended their action in dismissing the
teachers on the ground that harmony
must prevail in the schools The
board relieved the young women OF
their positions, alleging that they could
not work harmoniously with the prin-
cipal, Mrs. Nellie D. Tyler. The meet
ing was attended with the interchange
of many personalities and charges of
politics and favoritism were made. The
school trustees insist they will stand
by their action in hiring teachers in
the places of Miss Turney and Miss
Adams. The citizens are divided on
the question and the controversy fur
nished one of the chief topics of con-
versation in which school children are
taking part

AUTO OVERTURNs A CAR
ON MINIATURE RAILWAY
Two Passengers on Venice Road
Bruised in Accident to Last
Coach

VENICE, June S0.-The spectacle of
an automobile upsetting railway
train was witnessed here this after
noon when Lucien w. Wilder, insur-
ance agent with offices at S14 Central
building, Los Angeles, drove his ma
chine into a train on the Venice Min
iature railway. The rear car of the
train was overturned and two of the
twelve passengers were slightly in
jured. These were Mrs. Jane Louis of
2126 Kant street, Los Angeles, and S.
E. Turner, a youth of 175 North Daley
street, Los Angeles. The automobile
was considerably damaged.
The miniature train was bowling
along toward the Windward avenue
station at Venice and had almost
crossed Rialto boulevard in the canal
district when Wilder's machine came
along at a rapid pace and attempted
to pass back of the rear coach, which
is the private car" of Abbot Kinney,
owner of the railway. The automobile
caught the coach squarely near the
end and turned it over on its side,
throwing the passengers, most of whom
were women and children, on their
sides. Conductor Willie Wells quickly
signalled Engineer Holbrook to stop
the train and to this fact is assigned
the absence of injuries to the passen-
gers.
Mrs. Louis was attended by a ply
sician, who pronounced her injuries
slight. They consisted of bruise on
the hip and a severe nervous shock.
Young Turner was bruised.
Following the accident Wilder drove
from the scene, but was later found
by officer George Shishim and agreed
to pay all damage done, after which
he was released.
Passengers say the fault of the ac-
cident was not due to the crew of
the railway train, as the railway has
got the right of way across Rialto
boulevard and whistled for the cross
ing on this occasion.
