TO
HELP EVANS

Fourteen of the thirty teachers of
the East Orange High School have
rallied to the support of the deposed
principal, Charles w. Evans, and
have notified him of their intention of
seeking other schools before the
opening of the school next Septem-
ber Should the teachers carry out
their plans 1t is probable that they
will experience difficulty in securing
their releases, as the board has
made 1t rule that no teacher shall
resign unless able to give excellent
reasons for so doing.
1t is rumored that Ralph Fines,
named as Mr.. Evans's successor. has
notified the board that he will not
accept. their offer. President Cadmus
said that nothing had been okcially
received from Mr.. Fines, but 1t Is un-
derstood that so many citizens OPP
posed the replacing of Mr.. Evans
that Mr.. Fines does not wish to ac-
cept the position under the condi-
ton.
Most of the teachers are out of the
city. but Mr.. Evans when seen by a
Star representative, said he had re-
ceived kilograms from the teachers
in which they expressed indignation
at the action of the board. ut Is
true" said Mr.. Evans. that l have
the personal assurances of the four
teen teachers to relinquish their
positions, providing. q course. they
secure situations in other cities be-
fore the reopening of the school" Mr.
Evans added that he has already
been requested for recommendations
regarding the qualifications of several
of the teachers from a number of
employment agencies.
"All of the teachers are in sym
pathy with my case continued Mr.
Evans, land four of the instructors
who recently resigned their positions
told me they took the action upon
learning of the Board of Educators

FORESEE FIGHT
OVER LICENSES
Applications for Renewals
Come Before Montclair
Council Tonight.

A battle royal is promised tonight
between the liquor and anti-liquor
elements in Montclair when the
Town Council meets to consider re-
newals of licenses The Women's
Christian Temperance Union will be
represented by Mrs. ]. c. Fernald
and Nine. Guiliford- Smith. They ex-
pect to have the support of several
clergymen. The liquor dealers will be
represented by counsel.
Mayor Hinck believes it would be
a mistake to cut out all the licenses,
in view of the views expressed by
some of the business men of the town
with whom he has consulted. Coun-
Gilman William H. Schoonmaker
seems to be the pivot in the fight, as
five of the councilmen are against
granting any excise licenses and five
are in favor of It,
1t is not known how Mr.. Schoon-
maker stands. He is chairman of
the excise committee, but is out of
town, and is not expected at to-
nights meeting. If the vote should
be tie tonight it would practically
mean no licenses, as all licenses ex-
pire next Sunday night, and the only
plan to keep the affair alive would be
to adjourn until later date
Mayor Hinck said today that he
believed the members of the Council
would realize that 1t would be great
mistake to cut out the licenses as
the licensees have conducted their
establishments in an orderly manner
and obeyed the laws. He thought it
possible the renewals would be
granted.

JERSEY ARTISTS WIN
HIGH HONORS ABROAD

and Glen Ridge, respectively, both
former students of the Art Students
League, New York, have won honors
in Belgium at the Academic Royale
d'Anvers, a world-famous old art
academy, founded by Rubens,. and
having on its list of students in the
past 200 years many men who be-
came the greatest artists of their
countries and times.
Mr. MacKinnon has won the medal
given for the best two paintings at
the academy, the medal being an ex-
act copy and cast from the same die
as that of 200 years ago. This is con-
sidered the highest honor of the acad-
emy. In the same manner Mr.. Chaplin
has won the diploma for the highest
honor in drawing. Among other hon.
ors were two second prizes, also won
by these young men.
The ceremony of donating these
prizes, July is. is very ancient one.
The winners are crowned with laurel
by the mayor in front of the City
Hall, and here they are also given
the freedom of the city. They are
then escorted through the entire
city, riding In the great coach of the
mayor. The prizes are awarded when
the procession reaches the opera
house.
The pictures become the property OF
the government and hang in the gal
leries with the prize-w winning pictures
of the last centuries. Mr.. MacKinnon
and Mr.. Chaplin are well-known art
lists in the art circles Of New York
city.
Being forced to return to America
before July Is, Mr.. MacKinnon soon
will begin a trip through Scotland
and France.

KEARNY WANTS BRIDGE
OVER ERIE CUT WIDENED

After several attempts had been
made to get the Erie railroad to
widen the bridge over its Greenwood
Lake division cut in the northern end
of the town on Kearny avenue, the
Kearny Town Council last night voted
to make a formal request to the rail-
road officials for the change. 1t is
pointed out that the vehicular space
is not wide enough, and inasmuch as
the town is repaving and improving
Kearny avenue, the council feels that
the railroad should also make the
needed Improvement.
