Sustains Parent
 In School Fuss

Little Rock, Sept. 2S.-The supreme court has held that after pupil has been formally transferred from one district to another that the sec ond district cannot refuse admission on account of any previous offense that may have been charged to the pupil. It appears that in a certain county, a pupil had violated the school rules and was threatened with punishment by the teacher, thereupon suspending the pupil. The father transferred the child to an ga joining district and the teacher of the second district refused to adml the pupil unless, he ould return to the first school and accept his pun ishment. This the father would not permit and sought mandamas Tn the circuit court to compel the teach CT to admit his child. The circuit court refused to grant the mandamus and an appeal was taken to the su- preme court which reversed the low CT court. It was held that any ob- jections to the transfer should have been made in the first place and that they should not have waited until af- ter the transfer was completed.
