BEST MEETING EVER
BY HOME AND SCHOOL
Large Foreign as Well as
American Attendance
at Gathering.

What was in Mr.. T. e. williams
opinion, the best meeting ever held by
the Home and School Association took
pace last night in the Mckinley build
ing, East Chicago. In the first place
there was an excellent program. In
the second place. and Mr.. williams re-
CARDS the second place" as of the most
significance, the attendance was more
largely composed of foreign born par.
ents. than has ever been the case be-
fore.
AS the purpose of the Home and
School Association is really more to
recah this class than the American
parents, although it is desirable that
they. too. maintain their interest,
Principal Williams feels that the or
ganizations mission more closely APP
preached realization. in last nights
meeting than heretofore.
The program consisted Of several
numbers by pupils of the school and a
talk by superintendent E. NJ Canine
superintendent CANNES topic was I'm
dustrial and Vocational Education
and in it ne showed what the East Chi
cago schools are doing for boys and
girls who are back in their work. in
allowing them to do special work in
both manual training and domestic
science, and other special lines.
| Other numbers on the program en-
braced those by chorus of eighth
grade girls. dumb bell exercises, known
as the sanvil chorus by the boys, and
wand drill by sixth grade girls. All
i of these were very well done.
Last nights meeting was the first oil

/ officers last Spring, and in the absenc<
of the president, t. E. Williams oc

proceed hereafter as formerly. taking
place on the third Friday OF eaci

DEMOCRATS
MAY PICK
ENG[EHARI
Since Second Glass Bill Act
ed as Boomerang Killing
Knots Chances for Re-
election, Party Must Find
New Leader.

News that the Indiana senate has
raised the Gary second calss city bill,
leaving out the clause providing for
incumbent officials to succeed them
selves. the omission of which will
knock Mayor Knots into a cooked hat
SO far as running for mayor again is
possibilities that the lower house will
enact similar legislation. caused the
steel city democrats to at once look
around for an available leader
Col. Tim Englehart. alderman from
the Ridge road district, was picked out
Il possible candidate who might lead
any republican or. bull moose aspirant
a good race. BY three o'clock Tim had
received several telephone Invitations
to make the race. He declined to make
any comment.
1t is admitted on all sides that IL Pig
Tim should come out for the job and
if he would take the cudgel against the
knotts-Bill Cain gang that he would
be a pretty good card for winner and
that the republicans and bull noosers
could say but little against his per-
sonal character.
The steel trust owns the bull moose
, party in Gary and the trust has no
strings on Englehart like it has on
some other members of the council. Yet
Englehart stands high with Judge
Gary.

Being successful business man
Englehart's candidacy would presage a
business administration.

mean that all of the present city off,
Gals would go with the city into sec
ond class and finish their terms as
officials of a second class city. Not
only that, but they would be eligible
to reelection. The cities and towns
law provides that no official of first
or second class city is eligible to re-
election for two consecutive terms.
WOULD BE SERVING ONE TERN.
However, if the Gary bill were to go
through as originally written by
Mayor Knots he and his bunch of
Gary officials would not be affected by
that provision. because they would
only be serving out term for which
they were elected in a fourth class
city. and this would not bar them from
reelection as a second class city.
But right here their foot slipped.
There was some opposition to the bill.
In the House the Gary bill was intro
duced by Representative Carter. of
Hammond. and in the Senate it was in
troduced by Senator Gavit, of Whiting.
In the House the bill was reported for
passage by a committee. In the SEN
ate committee also reported it out
fer passage. but opposition sprung up,
and 1T was necessary. in order to get
the bin through the Senate at all to
amend it. So before It was passed yes
terday an amendment prepared by
Senator Gavit and offered by Senator
Stotsenburg, was made which says that
the present city officials of Gary shall
not be eligible to reelection. In that
form the bill passed the Senate. The
same kind Of amendment is to be made
to the House bill.
Therefore. If Gary gets into the Sec
ond class Mayor Knots and his crowd
| cannot be reelected to office when
| their present terms expire OF course
| they did not anticipate this develop
| ment. or 1t is doubtful IL they would
! have undertaken to make the change
| But it has gone beyond them and it Is
not believed that they could head of
the proposition now If they wished Il
do so. However. there are some whe
expect to see Knots and his marching
club come back to town and try to hav,
/ that amendment stricken out before
the bill finally becomes a law.

having been sustained by the supreme
court. The third effort, which was for
a rehearfng. was the one overruled
last Tuesday.
If there rs no further litigation and
delay. and all the taxpayers hope there
will not be. the school board is in po-
sition to proceed at once to let a new

the building can be partially COM

original plans Gall for building cost

present time has about $4,000 In its
treasury. and has limit for bonded

The sale OF school property on which
