Year, Say officials.

A comparatively small number of
public school children has deserted
the classrooms before graduation this
year to go to work. according to
school officials. In past years. and
especially during the war period.
many high school students and some
pupils in the graded schools left two
and three weeks prior to the June
closing to seek employment for the
summer.
Estimates furnished today by
school authorities show that not
more than 200. if that many.
have quit school and gone to work
this year. A few of these were at
Eastern and Business high schools.
However. at the latter institution, it
was explained. the program is SO ar
ranged that students can go to work
two weeks or a month before gradu-
alton and continue their courses.

classroom work. This is not true at

Special Dispatch to The Star.

gentler sex the right to exercise the
ballot throughout the land.
Spurred on by what has taken place
in other Jurisdictions and by the COM

city and state. through their various

legal responsibilities of -full-fledged
voters.

vision in the Maryland law governing
the qualifications of grand juries with
provision limiting the services of
petit jurymen to male taxable in
habitants or residents" The general
sense of the law, however. according
to those who have looked into the
matter. is that males only may be ap-
