AMERICAN LEGION
PRIZE AWARDS

Superintendent of Schools Grady
Gammage, Editor Sam w. Proctor,
and Rev. w. L. Martin were asked
to act as judges in awarding the
prizes offered by the American Lee
gion for the best essays on "Amer-
icanism," written by pupils in the
Grammar and High Schools. Sup
erintendent Gammage felt that in
asmuch as he was connected with
the schools in an official capacity
that the decision should rest with
the grading of the other two judi
ges. Mr. Proctor and Rev. Martin
each graded the several essays in
dependently and without knowledge
of the identity of the writer's in the
High Schol. Grading was based up
on three points, knowledge of the
subject, composition, and appearance
The three judges then met together
and decided upon the awards &C
cording to the grading that had
been given to the several contest
ants. 1t was discovered that the
grades varied only a few points on
the several essays and that the win
ner won by a very narrow margin.
So close were they that the judges

PLAN FOR TEACHERS
IN NEXT congress
School Authorities Will Map
Out Program for Renew
ing Salary Fight.
ASK STATUTORY STATUS
Failure at Recent Session Declared
Due to Parliamentary Tactics
in the House.
ASK STATUTORY STATUS

Depressed over the failure of Con
gress to pass the Capper teachers
salary and school reorganization bill
school authorities and leaders of the
various teacher groups are looking
hopefully to the next Congress to en-
act into law the long-fought-for
statutory salary schedule. In the
eight months interim the officials
and teachers will map out definite
plans for another campaign for the
enactment Of this legislation.
Down but not out" represents
the sentiment Of those who fought
tirelessly during the past session OF
congress in the interest OF the salary
bill. They feel confident that the
next Congress will pass the measure
either as separate legislation or d
part OF the school reorganization
pill which is expected to come before
the new Congress-
Victim OF Tactics.
Allan Davis, principal Of Business
Teachers Council, which drafted the
original pay bill. said today that II
ID unfortunate that the bill did not
pass. but pointed out that he had
no doubt that s5 per cent Of the
Favored the legislation. and that IT
was the victim of parliamentary
tactics in the House. He Is of the
opinion that the bill will come up in
the next session with the proposed
school reorganization measure.
The teachers, Mr.. Davis said. feel
that the public has supported them as
never before in their fight for the new
salary legislation. And as Chairman
OF the teachers council" he added. "r
appreciate the splendid support the
citizens have given us, especially the
women"
Failure Regarded as Calamity.
Stephen E. Kramer, acting super
intendent of schools, described the
failure of Congress to pass the Capper
Pill as a great calamity. He does not
believe, however, that the setback
viii weaken the teachers in their
fight. but will force them to renew it
more vigorously upon the convenins
of the next Congress-
Should Congress not give the Dis
trict teachers a permanent SALARY
schedule before June /, 1924, when the
reciassiflcation bill becomes effective.
1t was pointed out, they will lose the
government bonus of $240, and their,
pay automatically will go back to its
pre-war level.
