MATTER OF DISCIPLINE i. The following
statement was issued yesterday by the school
committee with regard to matter of disci-
pline in the High school. and we publish it
without going into details of the affair, feeling
that no good would result from such publicity:
BELFAST, Me-, June 2, 1915.
In the matter of discipline in connection
with the President of the Senior class of the
Belfast High School, Leroy Coombs, the
Board votes unanimously.
That: it upholds the Principal of the High
School in the matter of discipline in that
school in every instance and detail;
That the Board regrets to ask the Principal
OF the school to reinstate Mr.. Coombs against
the judgment of the Principal.

done, it has thus unanimously voted.
