SCHOOL BOARD TO MEET


Business Tonight.
meeting OF the State Board of
Education will be held at s O'Clock to-
night in its assembly hall at the cap
itol. Some odds and ends of business
regarding the school book adoption re-
main to be taken up, and 1t is likely
that the contest over the principalship
OF the public schools OF Bristol. Va,
VIII come up for final settlement
AT the recent adoption Of high school
books. the board overlooked the usual
requirement on publishers to stamp the
original and exchange prices on every
book. This protects the public against
high prices which might be charged
by booksellers.
The Bristol situation is an unusuar
and interesting one. 1t appears from
reading of the school laws of the
state that Profes sor Charles e. Ander-
sons election as supervising principal
of the schools was illegal 1t is pro-.
vided that before county or city
school board can elect a teacher. that
teacher must have a valid certificate,
which means that 1t must have been
Endorsed by the district school super-
intendent In this case not only was
Professor Anderson certificate not in
dorsed by Professor McChesney. but
the latter had announced that he would
not approve the certificate OF any per-
son who would accept the position un-
der the circumstances. The board had
previously declared the position va.
cant following criticisms OF its action
by ProfessV McChesney, who held tn.
position, together with that of super
AT meeting held Saturday night, at
which all interested parties were pres
ent, 1T was decided to refer the whole
matter to the State Board OF Education.
Its decision to be final 1t is supposed
that the parties will be present to-
night.

Weather is Right--Talkc of Merg-
Ing with the virginia valley Lea
que.

That the 1910 season of the Ohio
state league will begin earlier than
usual and last triflc longer, is the
idea of the Marion magnates who
favor schedule of about 140 gam
es or more for the coming season.
1t is proposed to open the season
April 2S but II the prospect for an
early spring are good IL may be that
April 22 will be decided upon as
opening day.
Last year n schedule of 1870
games was adopted. The season was
shortened to end on labor day and
the opening day was not as early
as usual. The magnates now believe
that by keeping up the playing until
Sept. 1S or 20 they will be able to
do better financially as there is al
most always excellent weather to be
had throughout the greater part OF
the season.
The schedule proposition will prob
ably be discussed at the meeting to
be held in Columbus on next Mon
day when the league will be or
ganized or definite arrangements

ado for the ORGANIZATION.

made for the organization.
1t Is unlikely that any double.
headers will be scheduled for Sun.
days this season, and there will be
two or three off days during the
summer months. The authorities be.
lieve that they give the public It's
moneys worth In one game and that
the bad weather in the early months
brings enough doubleheaders for later
in the season without having them
In the schedules. Then the playing
of too many doubleheaders will make
IL necessary for every club TO carry
more than 13 or IA men.
There is now some talk of getting
into communication with the pro-
posed Virginia Valley league pro-
moters. This organization, while
having territory under protection,
has not yet fully organized The pro-
posed league has two excellent cities,
Charleston and Huntington. in West
Virginia and these two would look
well in the Ohio State. 1t may be
that merger can be effected and
an eight club circuit secured in that
manner. President Spinney may be
asked to attend the Ohio State meet
Ing to confere with the magnates
on the proposition.
