A special session of the local school
board was held in the Town Council
rooms Monday evening. The meeting
was called to order with President
Smith in the chair. The real reason
for the meeting was to interview Mrs.
John Cordrey, mother of Ellis Cor
drey, a senior in the class of 1922, but
who was not allowed to graduate
through some unfortunate circum-
stances. 1t seems as though Ellis was
treasurer of the class and failed or
refused to make an itemized state
ment of the funds of the class. After
a lengthy discussion on the matter
the school board kept their hands off,
advising that it was a matter for the
senior class to straighten out. The
money envolved belonged to the class
and not to the school, or school board,
and they claimed no Jurisdiction over
it whatever.
