NAME DRUMMOND
TO SCHOOL BOARD
Local Attorney Accepts Posi-
ton Made Vacant by Hub
bard'S Resignation.

+ Charles p. DrlImmond has been
appointed to fill the unexpired term
Of A. L. Hubbard, who resigned from
the school board several days ago as
the result of the MONTGOMERY mud
die, according to the announcement
made Monday morning by Mayor f.
w. Keller. Mr.. Drummond, upon
inquiry, stated that he had accepted
the appointment and qualified" for
the place.
The new member Of the school
board will attend his first meeting
Tuesday night with E. B. Rupel and
William Glenn, the two administra-
ton appointees who were responsible
for the dismissal and subsequent
resignation of L. J. Montgomery, SUI
perintendent of schools. Mr.. Drum
mond is an attorney with offices in
the jefferson building and has prac-
ticed law here for several years. He
was recently president of the bar
association and has held several
other offices.
Hubbard's resignation came at the
height of the school controversy.
Rupel and elem ruled the board and
voted to remove Supt. Montgomery
at the close OF the present year.
Yelled charges were made against
the superintendent but not sub
Stimulated and no definite reason for
his dismissal was given. Mr.. Hub
bard first stated that he would re-
sign from the board If Messrs. Rupel
and Glenn would do the same. They
refused to bulge from the position
they had taken although public sem
timent was against their action.
Hubbard resigned anyway feeling
that he could not work in harmony
under the existing conditions.
Until Monday Mayor Keller had
given no intimation as TO who the
new board member would be, even
stating early Monday morning that
he was unprepared TO say whether
the appointment would be made be
fore the Tuesday night meeting. At
II o'clock he gave out the announce
nent that Mr.. DrummOnd had been
chosen for Mr.. Hubbard's place.

SOUTH BEND WILL
SEE AERO TESTS
AWatorS Will Test Advisable
ity of Endorsing Lincoln
Highway Route.

South Bend will in all probability
be one of the stations along. the
route OF the lincoln highway which
will be used by aviators of the Aero
club of America which is to stage
a series OF tests this summer along
the highway. The purpose of the
tests is TO determine whether or not
the highway should be endorsed by
the Aero club as the official coast
TO coast air line" route.
The information was brought TO
South Bend Monday by II. c. Oster-
mann, field secretary Of the Lincoln
highway He was in the city inter-
esting the local association in the
tests.
In order TO make South Bend one
OF the stations along the route, Nr.
Ostermann pointed out that IL would
be necessary that adequate prepare
tons for Landing place for the
aviators be made. A large maltese
cross painted white would be laid
out in the center OF the landing
place to indicate it's location 10 the
aviators flying above. A huge search
light with various coiored streams
would be used at night to direct the
flyers TO the landing place.
Assurances that these features
would be provided for in South Bend
was made Monday by Abe Frank.
He stated that the fair association
had capable facilities for the sta
ton. and that the entire matter
would be taken care of by that or
SANITATION.

These flights will take place dur
ing the summer and continue from
day TO day. The tests will be thor

ity OF selecting the official route,
and will be made II. relays. The flight
from coast 10 coast is expected 10
consume four days In all.
The proposition OF carrying mail
by the air route. Mr. Ostermann
said. was also under consideration.
and had been taken up with the
government postal authorities at
Washington. Sufficient assurance
from them that a trial test of this
method or dispatching mail would
be made, had been given TO the Off
Gals Of the aero club. the field sec
rotary pointed out.
Another plan being preached by
the Lincoln highway is 20 make
test on June Us OF the road from a
military standpoint Ii is planned 10
have Z. G. Patterson of Golfers,
Julian Street and a representative
OF the saturday evening Post. to-
gether with an army engineer TO
make the trip. The probable adop-
ton of the highway as a military
route from coast 10 coast would then
be succinctly brought before the at
tention OF congress, Mr.. OsterIlann
indicated.
Ii is planned TO make this test a
record run, and the automobile
bearing the government officials and
magazine Representatives viii pro-
coed both day and night 1t is
hoped 10 better the time made by
the railroads.
Mr. Ostermann said that the high
way was being shortened and that
curves and detours. especially in the
west. are being eliminated. He said
that the route was now only 20 miles
longer than the transcontlnental
railway lines and lie miles shorter
than the transcOntinental telephone
and telegraph route.
