NUSBAUM'S TRIP WEST
SHROUDED IN MYSTERY
Associate Superintendent of
Schools Fails to Explain and
So Does His Superior

Considerable speculation Is indulged re-
garding the purpose for which leave Of
absence has been granted to Louis Nus
baum, associate superintendent Of schools.
Mr.. Nusbaum has left his office and ac-
cordlng TO DIR. John p. CARRIER. his superior,
he has gone west TO attend TO school
matter" The nature of this matter"
Doctor CARRIER would not disclose.
Mr.. Nusbaum took n journey through
the Middle West last winter TO study con-
tinuation schools. According to William
Rowen, chairman OF the committee on ele-
mentary schools of the Board OF Education,
his second trip was undertaken with tho
same purpose on the last occasion his
expenses we're paid out OF public funds. but
Mr.. Rowen says that this time he will pay
them himself.
Before leaving several days ago Mr.
Nusbaum was asked TO state the cause OF
his impending departure, but hastily left
his Office without explaining. Since that
time the matter has been treated with an
Board of Education.
There SHOULD not have been any mystery
about It," said Mr.. Rowen. doctor Garber
superintendent of schools. asked that Mr.
Nusbaum be granted a leave OF absence
The committee on elementary schools
granted that request with the understand
ing that he intended to go away on educa-
tional business"
Mr. Nusbaum will be away, according "a
Mr. Rowen. for about a week or ten days
In the meanwhile his office is in charge OF
a stenographer. The mystery Of the affair
Is increased by the fact that no record OF
the leave Of absence is contained in the
minutes Of the School Board
