BURTON DEFENDS "FRATS."
Wholesome Social Societies" He
Tells School Board Committee.

The Greek letter fraternities in the
high schools were strongly champion
ed by School Inspector c. NJ. Burton,
in meeting OF the special committee,
headed by Inspector Charles r. Rob
ertson, appointed by President Kuhn,
OF the board OF education, to inyesti-
gate the frat" question.
Mr.. Burton declared that the fra
ternities generally should not be con-
demned for the faults OF the few bad
Cnes, and that the bad ones should
be disciplined. He stated that four
OF his children are members of fra
ternities, and he characterized the
latter AS nothing more than whole
some social societies" The fratern-
tiles were also defended by Frank D.
Eaman, charter member OF the
Lambda Sigma; c. II. Lawson. nation
al vice-president of the organization,
and C. E. Baxter, who has a son in
one OF the high school "frats."
Chairman Robertson will prepare a
list of all the high school societies
and the committee will hear the evil
dence OF members as well as teach
ers before reaching a decision. In
speetor Goldberg said he had heard
that the initiation ceremonies OF
some of the fraternities were dis
graceful and Mr.. Robertson pointed
out that "frats" had been suppressed
in Chicago.
