SPECIAL MEETING CALLED.
Beard of Education to Discuss Bruce
Case This Evening.

To discuss the question of whether or
not Roscoe Conkling Bruce is to con
tinue assistant superintendent of
schools. a special meeting of the board
of education has been called for this
evening at 7:30 o'clock at the Franklin
School 18th and Is streets northwest.
Although there is a, strong sentiment
on the part of some of the board
against Mr.. Bruce. the matter has not
reached the stage where DIR. Davidson,
superintendent of schools. has made
any recommendation. and, judging from
remarks made by him, he has no rec
ommendation to make.
1t is understood that the white MEM
bers of the board of education are
thoroughly in favor of Mr.. Bruce and
his methods of administration just
what will be said against Mr.. Bruce
cannot be foretold, those who be-
lieve he is not the proper man for the
place have kept their reasons fairly
well to themselves.

Corps of the army has this year failed
to secure from among the graduates of

to enter the Engineer Corps rather than
any other branch of the military service.
But this year so heavy were the demands
OF every other branch that the War De-
partmcnt decided that it could not In
fairness allow the Engineer Corps to fill
it's quota by selection from among the
graduates.
The consequence Is that ii Is now found
necessary to admit no less than ten CT.
