VOCAL CORDS SILENT.
IN HIGH SCHOOL "STR|KE"
Boys of Stuyvesant Refuse to
Sing Because They Can't
Get Out at Noon.
BREAK DOOR DOWN ALSO
Kept In for Their Own Good,
Says Principal, but They
Want Same Rights" as
Other Schools Enjoy.

The faculty OF the Stuyvesant High
School. in East 10Th street. near Stuy-
vesant Square, Is facing what the boys
declare to be strike against unjust
regulations. Yesterday morning, ac-
cordlng TO the pupils. when the 300
boys enrolled in the school assembled
In the auditorium for the opening ex-
ercises. a large majority refused 10
sing America" as a protest.
The principal grievance of the boys
Is the rule which forbids their leaving
the building during the monday inter-
mission. The daily routine begins at .
"A. IN. and continues until 2:30 p. m.
with about twenty-five minutes for
luncheon. During this noon period the
boys, except those who live nearby.
are required TO remain inside the build
ing. If they desire TO eat and have not

conducted In the basement.
The boys say the pupils in other high
schools Of the city are permitted to eat
their luncheons where they wish and
enjoy liberty during the MONDAY inter-
mission. Some of the boys complain
also of the quality of the food served.
The boys said that thirty-two of their
l1. 1. 1.,r al
took advantage OF the noon intermls-
sion I'm spite of the faculty's efforts to
keep them in. They also threatened to
force the doors I'm a body to-day and
in other ways to assert what they be-
lieve to be their rights. which they say
are enjoyed by pupils of similar insti-
tutions
Principal Ernest II. Won Nardrof,
when asked about the strike" smiled
and said he knew nothing about Ii.
To him. ne said, such a report was only
amusing. AS for the pupils refusing to
sing yesterday morning. he admitted
that a few had not Joined I'm the exer-
cises, but attributed that fact to the
warm weather or perhaps the influence
of small number of boys who were
dsgruntled.
DIR. Won Nardroff said there were al
ways boys in every school who had
fancied grievances and who were rest
less and dissatisfied. and there were
always little problems Of discipline and
school management arising. the settle
ment OF which might not please some
of the pupils. Such was the case in
Stuyvesant High School, he said. but
as for a strike" he knew nothing OF
any such thing.
The boys were not permitted 10 leave
the school building at the noon recess.
the principal declared, because the
neighborhood In which the school Is
situated Is not one where careful
parents would care to have their boys
at liberty. II would be far more con-
venient for him and the rest Of the
faculty, he said, II this rule were not In

UNHOBBLES TO BOARD CAR
South Norwalk Girls Skirt Be-
comes Sheath Gown.

South Norwalk, Conn. May 5.-Miss
Maude Robinson. society girl, with a
tendency toward the initiative In dress
II not the referendum. was unable to
get her foot upon the step Of an open
trolley car here this afternoon because
of her hobble skirt.
Miss Robinson had apparently antici-
pated this circumstance. for she unbut-
toned a number Of buttons up the side
and the hobble skirt quickly became a
sheath gown and permitted its wearer
to easily mount the step. In the mean
time the conductor and passengers had
been greatly interested in the revela-
tions. The car step was seventeen
inches from the ground.

force. and it was enforced wholly for
the boys own interest.
The food served in the school lunch
room. DR.. Won Nardroff asserted, was
better in quality than could be pur-
chased for the same price at any res
taurant He said he knew the sources
Of supply. and was convinced that
everything was clean and wholesome.
The teachers ate the same food, he
said. and when visitors called at the
school IL was served to them. The prin-
cipal was certain that the reported
strike" was nothing more than the
individual opinions of few dissatisfied
