FRAT CONVENTIONS
WILL PLAN ACTION
ONOUSTER RULING
D. c. High School Boys Claim
Ban Of Education Board
Is Unfair.

Incorporated national fraternities
and sororities, whose membership
numbers many high school students,
will fight the ruling of the District
Board of Education which prevents
members of secret societies from en-.
RaginH in any school activities Tot
strictly educational.
This was forecast today by several
fraternity leaders, who announced
that conventions were being held this
month. At these conventions the fra
ternities will decide on definite action
to pursue when the Board of Educ,-
ton attempts to enforce its ruling
next fall.
1t Is probable that a committee,
representing several of the largest
fraternities in the city. will go before
the Board of Education next fall to
ask that the ruling be set aside.
"Our fraternity Is national. 1t has
no connections with the local high
schools other than that several stu
dents are members" said one frater-
nifty man today.
II do not see how the Board of Ed
ucation can make such rules We
class ourselves In the same position
as the knights of Columbus, Masons
or any similar organization. The
board cannot keep a high school
student out of these fraternities and
we do not believe they can keep them
out of our fraternity"
