RACE NARROWS TO
FIVE CANDIDATES
Next School Superintendent
Will Be Chosen From One
of Favored Applicants.

1t is stated that the members of the
Richmond board of education now
have only five applicants for the po-
sition of school superintendent under
consideration, although there were
nearly fifty applications for the APP
pointment.
The board declines to give out the
names of the candidates from whom it
will make it's selection and it is prob
able no decision will be reached for
some time, for the board desires to
be absolutely certain that it's decision
will be a wise one.
1t is reported that the leading can
didate among the five under considera-
ton is a prominent Indiana educator
who is now superintendent of schools
in an Indiana city.
The board insists that the next sup
erintendent shall be an expert in voca-
tional training and prefers man who
has taken a course in the school ad-
ministration department of Columbia
university
The selection of principal of the
high school has not yet been made,
the board prefering to delay this ap-
pointment until superintendent is Sc
cured, so that he can be consulted on
the question.
