Fair Fists Fly
In Discussion
OF High School

Albany, Or, Aug. 23.-The Rev
Charles Tibbetts was speaking
during a Plainsview school meet
ing Monday when violent things
humorous or tragic, according to
! viewpoint, began to happen.
/ Twenty-six originally partici
pated in the meeting. Eleven took
umbrage and departed after hav-
ing cast vote. Tnen those remain
ing voted again. The result, per-
force, differed. Now some other
authority will be asked to decide.
The question which caused the
melting was whether or no Plains
view should have high school.
Ramifications, hitherto undream-
ed of. sprang up and the battle
was on. !.
The dramatic climax was reach
ed when Mrs. Tibbetts hooked a
vicious right hook to Mrs. Dave
Vests mouth during infighting
over the alleged merits OF high
school for a town the size of
Plainsview.
Rev. Mr.. Tlbbets was holding
his own on the platform despite
vigorous interpretations by those in
the seats until his wife backed his
remarks with her fist.
Grafton gave way to action.
When the dust was cleared two
school directors, Isaac Wheeldon
and Clarence Cornutt, had resign
ed and two aspirants, H. l.. Lamb
and Ray Brewster, had been elect
ed to fill the vacancies.
Nearly half the crowd had fled
and Plainsview parents with Off
springs of high school age are
looking to the district attorney for
decision, for September school
days are nigh.

Treasury Mellon. They have a plan
under way by which the House would
sandwich the Mellon legislation be-
tween the Fordney tariff bill and the
new tax act they insist will come
later on in the present session.
II their plan succeeds, IL is the be-
lief of Fordney and his Republican as

in ample time to prevent II unduly de-
laying the proposed tax legislation.

may become involved in a serious
legislative jam which would further
hamper the Republican program for
tax revision yet to be worked out.

wartime society romances ended yes
terday when common pleas court No.
8 handed down DEGREES of divorce in
the suits brought by George Biddle
against Mrs. Anne Coleman Biddle.
and by Mrs. Margaret Burton Balm
against Cowan Balm.
Another divorce was that of Ellen
Henrietta Hawk from DR.. Philip u.
Hawk, the latter professor of eli m
istry at Jefferson Medical College.
George Biddle, 80 years old, a son
of the late Algernon Biddle, was
lieutenant in the officers reserve
corps during the war. Mrs. Biddle,
who is the daughter of B. Dawson
Coleman, distinguished herself work
ing close to the front lines during
the war. The first intimation the pub
lie had of the shattered romance came
on May 20, when formal notice was
published, calling on Mrs. Biddle to
defend the suit. The case was heard
in private before Percy d. Madeira,
Jr, as master The grounds for the
divorce action were not disclosed, but
IL Is understood that desertion was
the reason advanced. The Biddles
were married on August 3, 1917.
The second wartime romance which
ended yesterday with the judges de-
cree began when Miss Margaret Han
dy Burton, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs
George Handy Burton, 2015 Spruce
street, eighteen years old and a So
cial favorite, was married to Cowan
Balm, son of Mrs. Frederick Balm, just
on the eve of the young mans de-
parture for an aviation camp in
Texas. The young bride accompanied
her husband to his station. The rea-
sons for the divorce were not dis
closed. The young woman's mother
said IL had been unfortunate and
mistake" and that her daughter and
young Balm had not been happy in
their married life.
DR.. Hawks marital troubles date
back for number OF years. He is
not only one of the most noted teach
ers of chemistry In the country, but
is also a famous tennis player and
authority on the game. DIR. Hawk
