Ill. The first nve named we're nom
mated by DR.. Banton. the next FIVE
we're nominated by Shermer H.
Stradley. and the last three by DR..
Washburn.
The three names 20 which the
original list had dwindied and which
were to have been considered last
night we're Mr.. Ward, Mr. Ely
and Mr.. Thornburg. Some confu-
sion seemed to exist among the
members as TO the procedure to be
followed in the election, as to wheth-
er only the three selected names
were to be balloted upon or that
those three and the candidates who
submitted their applications after the
three had been selected should be
balloted on.
That a superintendent should not
be selected until the best man OBJ
tainable had been found was the
feeling of President Ellwood Souder
and other members OF the board
When the meeting opened. the
report of DR.. Washburn on his in
vestigation of Mr.. Ward was called
for. but the procedure in the cleo
ton promptly came up for discus
sion. This resulted In the adoption
Of a motion TO consider for election
the names of only the three that
were scheduled TO be considered last
night over a motion TO consider the
new applicants.
After the motion had carried, dis
cussion continued on the advisable
ity of confining the election 10 the
/ three names. Mr.. Souder felt that il
would not be fair TO the candidate:
who filed their names after the orig
/ inal list had been reduced to the
/ three.
/ DR.. Washburn felt that the cleo
/ ton should be confined TO the three
names mentioled, and, in case o.

iority Of votes. that the ofiice b.

Mr.. Souder, likewise, did not fee
that there should be any hurry, stat
ing that the work of superintendent

low the other community time to fill
their lost oficial's place.
DR.. Banton suggested that the
board proceed with the hearing of the
reports on the three selected candi-
dates and that they could, II they
felt ready to elect, to do so by mo-
ton. He said he feared that what
rDr. washburn had reported in Pro-
fessor Wards favor would be lost in
the discussion on the election pro-
cedure.
Dr. washburn stated that he
could not agree that there should
be no hurry TO elect a school super
intendent
Mr.. Chandler then asked Mr.. Sou
der why he had voted afirmatively
in eliminating the list OF candidates
to three and then come out at the
meeting against that action. Now
we say we don't want TO do what we
said we wanted to do; that doesn't
seem like business" asserted the
member.
DR.. Washburn offered a motion
that the board consider the reports
on the candidates and then go into
an election on the three selected
ones. Messrs. Ward, Ely and Thorn
burg. The motion was lost.
DR.. Washburn promptly moved
that the board consider the names
of every applicant for the position
up to last night. which included
those who had been previously eli
minated, the three who were TO have
been balloted on, and the new ap,
plicants since the elimination process
was used.
