High School Morals

L>IVE Queen Anne high school students were in

night as result of investigation of drinking

The board announces it is not thru. Its members
are determined to find out what, if anything, is
wrong in Seattle high schools For this it is to be
commended.
But in this as well in all other Investigations
Dame Rumor should play part unless back of this
busybody lie facts that be laid before the board
in way that will enable its members to take prompt
and just action.
Since the Queen Anne episode first came to the
surface the air has been charged with wild stories of
misconduct bad morals and lax discipline in Seattle
high schools. Is
Anonymous letters and mysterious telephone calls
have reached The Star about evils that are said to
exist. If these things are true those who know of
information before the board at once.
One member of the board admits he believes con-
ditons bad in the high schools-worse, he thinks
than they were before.
The Star is inclined to the belief that things are
not greatly different today than they have been at
other times. But it the seriousness of stu
alton like this and feels that if the present condition
is NOT dissimilar to others in the past school
patrons should be the willing to cooperate with
the school board and stamp it out now. If the in
vestigaton hits students they should go; if it should
involve teachers nothing short of immediate dismissal
will suffice.
