GRADUATION HALTED
BY ONE TEACHERS
PREJUDICE, He SAYS
Horace w. Truesdell Makes
Charges Against Mckinley
School Instructor.

| Whether Horace w. TruesdelIs Eng
flish examination paper was correctly
marked on the eve of his graduation
! from the Mckinley Manuel Traini1"-
! High School, last month, is the particu-
| lar question which the high school COM
mittee of the Board of Education will
have to settle in determining whether
young Truesdell is entitled to diploma.
Truesdell asserts that when he took
a special English examination he wrote
a good paper, and that II was not
marked properly by Miss Carrie j.
Christensen, instructor in English in
the Mckinley School. Prejudice against
him on the part of Miss Christiansen
Is charged by TruesdeIl.
Miss Christensen is the Mckinley
School member Of the High School
Teachers Association, which investi-
gated and condemned fraternities, root
and branch, and she is said to have
been in full sympathy with the recon-
mendation that fraternities be abol-
ished. Truesdell is an active member
Of the Adelphic Society.
1t is well known now that Truesdell
did not take the regular examination in
English because he was suffering from
q DIOhCH hiliI db Nilol "oo
unable to write. Truesdell said today
that he was given an examination the
night before graduation. that his paper
was marked the same evening by Miss
Christensen and that she marked him
below passing grade. He and his
father, julius w. Truesdell, a news
paper correspondent living at 11A Har-
ward street, are ready to go before the
special committee of the Board OF Ed
ucation at any time and testify that
Miss Christensen was. in their belief,
prejudiced against the schoolboy, be-
cause he was an officer and the active
spirit of the Adelphic Society.
Miss Christensen is now living in the
Olympia at Fourteenth and Euclid
her there this morning. and the switch
board operator on the main floor rang
up her fiat. The conversation occurred
like this:

was up before the Board of Education
yesterday afternoon and the letter of
julius Truesdell, the father, was re-
ferred to the committee on high school
headed by President Oyster The COM
mittee considered the matter informally
and then announced that II would defer
all action until later. President Oyster
said today that he thought the commit

meeting yesterday. heard that 1t would
not be up until August.

Family Left on Pier
When Texans Ship Sails

NEW YORK, July 2.-I.et fathers take
warning from John ]. O'Reilly, Of Dali

their families to Europe see them all
on board.
Mr.. OReiliy had 5000 in his pocket.
a wife and son and daughter on the
pier, and four tickets for England when
the Baltic sailed yesterday. He had
gone on board, leaving all except the
5000 on the pier. The family wept
and imagined awful things when the
liner steamed out. In their terror they
told the steamship people, who sent a
wireless asking for the errant husband.
He was surprised, indeed. TO find he
was the only one of the O'Reillys
aboard. Besides, he had no tickets
But, still worse, his family had no
money. He was sent back by the pilot
boat, and the other o'Refllys were too
happy to see him to upbraid him. The
next time, which win be next Saturday,
they viii try to get aboard the Celtic
