SEEK METHODS
FOR OPERATING
NORMALSCHOOL
Maintaining Is Illegal, Is De
cisiOn of Attorney
General.

Some method Of operating the Indian
apolis City Normal School another year
was sought by members Of the school
board In conference with State officials
today. Operation of the normal school
by the city was declared illegal in an
opinion written by Attorney General
Q. s. Lesh recently. The reason for
seeking to maintain the school one year
longer was the desire TO give students
who have completed half their course a
chance to finish 1t, it was stated.
Attorney General Lesh told the mem
beers Of the board and it's attorney It
would not be possible TO operate the
school another year legally and such a
course would not be advisable
Those who attended the conference
were Attorney General Lesh Edward NJ.
White, Jesse Eschbach, chief clerk of the
State board of accounts; Charles Barry,
president of the school board; DIR. Marie
Haslep, a member Of the board, and Al
bert. Baker, attorney for the board.
No disposition to refuse to accept the
interpret tion of the law as given in he
attorney generals opinion was mani
tested and they indicated no test of the
law in the case would be made.
The school board wished to take care
Of teachers who have partly finished their
course, it was stated, and also instruc-
tors in the normal school work upon
whom discontinuance OF the school may
work a hardship.
Attorney General Lesh told the dele
CATION the school, in his opinion, should
not be operated next year and could not
be operated lawfully. Tie said students
couId complete their training courses in
lawfully constituted State schools and
their having done so would be worth
more to them in the event Of The closing
Of the city normal school.
No action will be taken by tho State
toward the recovery Of money spent by
the school board in the past for the op-
GRAFTON Of the normal school II was indi-
Gated at the attorney generals Office.
The expenses OF operation for the past
year amounted to approximately $4,000
The money could be recovered only from
school board officials and It was said TO
be doubtful IL this could be done legally.
The present members Of the school board
have continued operation Of the school,
but did not start It. and. according TO
speakers in the conference, admitted its
operation legally had been doubted by
them.
