third senior high school at the begin
ming of the fall term but was suhse-
quently abandoned temporarily when
patrons of the school protested that
their children did not have the same
advantages that they would have in
the two older schools. They also said
that the building was unsafe. A joint
ornb,taz4nral ..
tee. however. examined the buildings
and found them safe and in need only
of minor repairs. The school. neverthe
less. was abandoned until the repairs
could be made and equipment pur-
chased for the recently created high

TONS OF ROCK HOLD
BODY FAST WITHIN
SIGHT OF RESCUERS
Slide Kills Foremen and
Entombs Five Other
Workers.

Bingham, Utah, Oct. fin full
view of and almost within reach of
the rescue party. the battered and
mangled body of Dan Eden. 80 year,
old. foreman of the Utah-Apex coal
mine. at an early hour this morning
was still in the grip of the huge rock
pile which crushed it yesterday after
noon and which at the same time
killed or entOmbed alive the five conf
paniOnS of the foreman.
No signals have come through the
gigantic rock pile and the fate of the
miners is matter of conjecture.
The rescue party itself. hampered
by lack of room and by bad ground
was forced to flee to safety while min
or cave-ins undid their work of hours.
Eden's body is wedged in such a
manner that it is impossible to move
it without bringing down upon the
heads of the rescuers the tons of
looSened rock which rest upon the
very stones which hold the body fast.

Board Has That Power But
No Ruling Is Made on
Matter.

School Will Be Made
Friday.
MARK TWAIN READY

Although the San Antonio school
board is vested with authority to
pass a rule that no pupil shall leave
the school grounds during school
hours. recess periods or noon recess
periods except with the consent of
the principal, no ruling to that effect
will be made for the present, it was
disclosed at n regular meeting of the
board, Tuesday afternoon. The emer-
gency giving rise to the discussion OF
the school boards right to pass such
a ruling and the appeal to the school
board attorney for an opinion, has
passed, according to DR.. W. II. Har-
gis. president Of the board.
At a previous meeting of the board,
the complaint was made that children
were leaving the school grounds at the
noon recess period and that they were
purchasing lunches at restaurants and
stands. To settle the question of the
extent of the limits of the boards
police powers, the matter was referred
to the school board attorney. Bruce
W. Teagarden. Principals and teach
ers, however, were instructed during
the meanwhile to exert their influence
to keep the children on the school
grounds during the recess periods.
After explaining that the school
board has the power to pass reason
able rules with reference TO the man
agement and control of the schools
and the matter of discipline and con-
duct Of pupils. Mr.. Teagarden said
Board Has the Power.
~The school board has the power to
pass a rule requiring that no pupil
shall leave the school grounds dur
ing school hours, recess periods. or
noon recess periods. .except with the
consent of the principal. Such a rule
is a reasonable one. Any rule which
would require children to purchase
their meals at cafeterias operated by
the school district would be an unrea-
sonable rule. in my opinion, for the
children naturally have the right to
bring their lunches to school with
