The word was passed without the
mate moving away. The mate, after a

COURT REFUSES TO
JUDGE TEACHERS

Judge Conkling decided that the su-
perior court has no jurisdiction over Il
school board in deciding the compct-
ency Of it's teachers. The case in qucs-
tion originated when several school
teachers in Calexico protested the
school board S refusal to tender them
contracts to teach in Calexico schools
for the coming term. The teachers
later brought mandamus action against
the board Of trustees to make them
show cause why they refused to renew
the contracts.
This action was based on new
state law which requires chool board
to classify teachers who have served
two wears successfully as permanent
teachers. Judge Conkling sustained a
demurrer to .the mandamus proceed
ings filed by District Attorney E. K.
Simon, representing the trustees. The
case was considered test of the new
state law and attracted considerable at
tention all over the state among law
vers and school teachers.
