'FRATS" MAYLOSE
PERIOD OF GRACE
School Societies Accused of
Breaking Faith With the
Authorities.
BUSINESS BEFORE BOARD

Several important matters were
brought before tho board OF education
at its meeting at tho Franklin School
yesterday afternoon. Included in the
acts of the body were tho following:
Intimation that action would be
taken Immediately abolishing high
school secret societies. rather than al
lowing them the period of grace origi-
nally offered. on the grounds that they
have broken their pledges to the board
of education.
Acceptance of an offer from the fac
ulty of Mckinley Manual Training

Of war between the United States and
any foreign power.
Refusal to dismiss aliens now in the
employ of the schools. on the ground
that such action would be provincial
Acceptance of an offer from parents
Of children of the Monroe School to en-
ploy a school nurse for that school
Firm Stand Against Frats.
That some of the high school frater-
mites and sororities are planning to
evade the regulations of the board of
education by masquerading under the
guise of clubs and Sunday school or
ganizations was developed at the meet
ing. Rev. DR.. John Van Schaick, jr.,
president of the board of education,
made it plain that fact and not name
would be considered in the case of the
fraternities. and that every effort to
evade the boards ruling would be met
with firm, decisive action.
Tho d;scussion arose following the
reading of two letters regarding school
organizations and DR.. Van Schaick' s
reply to them. One was from DR.. E. S.
Newton, principal of Western, and re-
garded a proposed girls club; the other
was from John H. Snapp inquiring
whether the boards rule applied to
Sunday school fraternities," into one
of which his boy was invited
DIR. Van Schaick said the fraternities
and sororities are "honeycombing the
first and second year high school class
es by making the members feel that
these organizations are to be kept
alive" He expressed the belief that a
