LINCOLN, Jan. 1-(Special)-N. p. Nc
: Donald, member OF the state Normal
EBoard, will be unable to visit all the towns
aBklng for the new normal school as he Is
engaged in a law suit. which compels his
attendance in the supreme court next
Thursday.
on the other side of the case is the firm
Of Hoagland q Hoagland. This firm and
Mr.. Mcdonald filed motions In the court
for a continuance, but the court refused
to change its calendar. Yesterday the
court sent for Luther r.. Ludden, secretary
TO the board and he made an AFFIDAVIT
that the itinerary Of the normal board had
been mapped out before the case had been
set in the supreme court, but even that
I failed to change the date Of the argument
in the case. The court did agree to wait
until Saturday to hear Mr.. Mcdonald, but
as that would give him very little more
time he will visit one or two towns and
then hike for Lincoln to be here Thurs
day.
Ballots for Location.
Secretary Ludden has prepared the ballots
for the use of the board In selecting the
location Of the school and it has printed
AOn II the lOlHOWlnB OWuSs FAllAaWOl H.
Z Alliance, Chadron, Crawford, Gordon
and Rushville. How many votes the first
place on the ticket is worth has not yet
been estimated.
O'Neill is not on the ballot, though rep
= resentatives of that town have asked for
a hearing and have said a proposition
would be filed, but so far the papers have
not reached this board. Whether the sec
rotary OF the defunot board has the papers,
this board does not know.
The board does not expect to settle the
location Of the school on this trip, but it
possibly may do so when 1t meets again
in Lincoln next Monday, following the
junket.
Secretary Ludden has received from all
I. the towns except Rushville the programs to
, be carried out. These programs were
prepared by local committees. They fol-
