SCHOOL CONTROVERSY.
Superintendent Scott Replies TO Criticism
by Probation Officer Green.

II think he has verified everything |
said at the last meeting, remarked Super
intendent G. J. Scott at the Board of
Education meeting last night, practically
sums up the result of the questioning OF
Chief Probation Officer j. Paul Green by
DIR. Scott The questions asked were mild
and at no time did the CONTROVERSY be-
come heated.
A communication was first read from
Mr.. Green, in which he stated that he
desired to help in all ways for the better
ment of the schools and the children of
the city.
He was then given the privilege of the
floor and said that in answering questions,
he wished the board to under stand that
he realized they had a tremendous OBJ
iect before them, but he indicated that
he also had big job before him What he
wanted. he said, IS constructive results.
DR. Scott propounded the first question
that pupils are refused admittance be-
cause of crowded conditions and asked
whether or not this was true.
MIR. Green cited the case Of John
Donahue, 2S09 West Second street, saw
ing that the boy had never been in school
and the law requires that he must be in
school. In spite of number of efforts
the boy did not 90 to school and was finally
told that he would have to wait until
the February term before he could be
admitted
Mr.. Scott asked for a ives" or "no"
answer to the question Mr.. Green finally
admitted that the case did not apply.
Mr.. Green, in explanation, said the
names reported to him represented con-
ditions about the city Before DR.. Scott
was satisfied with the answer to the first
question, he asked emphatically, 'Do
you know Of any boy or girl being refused
on account OF crowded conditions?' Mr.
Green replied he did not know of any su CHI
case
The other two points were that Mr..
Green is alleged to have said that pupils
are not admitted after the school term
opens and that pupils are refused ad-
mission because they did not want to 60
TO school. Mr.. Scott said these statements
were not true MIR Green, to the second
point, cited the case of Howard Louth,
boy who was told by the teacher that he
should be at work Mr. Green added that

the statements rs interpreted by Mr.. Scott
were not true, but with the proper back
ground they were true.
To the first of the latter two points,
Mr.. Green said that his origin nj statement
had not been properly printed in the news
paper and that he was not responsible
for that error.
MIR. Scott, relative to the Louth boy,
said that Mr.. Green implied that the boy
WAS refused admittanco. He said the boy
was never refused ndmittance. DIR. Scott
also added that he had the statement of
the teacher and the. attendance officer
that the boy was not denied admission
Mr.. Green said that the boy had told
him that he was refused admission to the
school. DR. Scott explained that after a
boy ls absent from school for some time
his name il taken off the list and his seat
cancelled, but added that be can get the
seat back
With the remark given by DIR. Scott
the discussion closed, after taking only

Columbia Records Have
Brand New Stunt This Month

Columbia records have a new
stunt this month-"Chong." a Chi
nese rag, sung by Irving kaufman,
accompanied by an orchestra that
has to work every minute. Both the
song and the music are startlingly
original. On the other side of the
disc is another freak novelty hit,
"One and Two and Three and
Four, Rock-a-Bye,' sung by the
Peerles quartet. The first dance
fan who heard it listened for a
minute and then exclaimed: Now
start rocking your baby"
"On a Little Farm in Norman
die" which the Peerles quartet
sings for Columbia this month, is a
harmonious love song, an echo from
the American Expeditionary forces
in the clover fields of Normandie.
1t goes far toward explaining the
reason why so many of Our men
brought home French brides, or
applied for permission to remain in
France. On the reverse of this
disc Henry Burr sings Little Old
Lady O Nine" another song of
unique sentiment.
'Ja-Da! Ja-Da! Ja-Da! Jing! Jing!
Jingp is the appropriate title of the
latest jazz which Sweatman's
Original Jazz band has played for
Columbia records. IFS as queer as
its title, but it makes a great fox
trot. Rainy Day Blues" another
fox-trot by the same band, is on the
other side of this record.

Starr Wiley had left Kern Thode

condemned to death. A courier had
brought him word of the rapture of
Billie Murdaugh. the heiress to the
Murdaugh millions. and he knew that
the Vultures, that band of relentless
outlaws, would show her no mercy.
So he felt safe in striking out for

Billie's cousin, to whom, he thought,
the Murdaugh millions would fall.
