& Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEW CASTLE, May 29-Some sur
prise was created at the meeting of
the Board Of Education last night
when the announcement was made
4 that the text book committee need not
hurry in getting special diplomas for
B the commercial course graduates. The
treason for this was that three of the
scholars in that department had quit
Sand are. going to a Wilmington busi-
ness college. This leaves the class
without scholars.
4 MT Manlove was a little late in ar
irving at the meeting and inquired if
4 Ia report had seen received concern
Sing three of the high school scholars
5 Hquitting
President Ferris replied that no re-
7port had been received.
. Mr.. Manloye asked if the report
: were true.
President Ferris said he believed
+ the report was true. The course is
s two years one and the pupils have
Z been but fifteen months in the com
Emercial department. Recently they
Hlearned they would not graduate and
Hthey quit the school and are going
&to Wilmington.
Mr.. Goudis said the girls we're out
sof school
: Mr.. Manlove said either the prin-
4cipal or the teacher of that depart
Hment should have had a report at
1.-THE meeting.
If the course did not cover a suffi-
-. al
& should be extended.
E Mr. Eliason presented a motion that
& Ncommittee on teachers make an in
8 vestigation and have report at the
& special meeting TO be held in two
s weeks. The Board passed the resolu-
Ntion. The text books committee had
s been instructed to get diplomas for
E the stenographers but now they viii
B not be needed for a year. There will
be only two graduates this year in the
+ regular course, George Madden and
& Irene Wise.
