SCHOOL HEALTH

Need for extension Of school health
inspection work in the District was
urged by the public health committee
of the Monday Evening Club at a
meeting of the club yesterday. a re-
port of the committee shows that out
of 1,494 pupils in the local kinder
gartens and first grades who were
examined S5.8 per cent were found
TO have some physical defect. Addi-
tional inspectors and nurses were
urged.
The committee points out that
while many examinations are made
the examining staff is not large
enough to handle all children enter
ing school. Investigations in other
cities show, according TO the com
mittee, that 20 out of every 100
school children are found to be suf-
tering from durable defects.
Examinations Limited.
The committees report states:
With a staff of less than 25 per-
sons, including only 13 medical in
spectors and 10 nurses, it is held i'm
possible that complete physical eX
animation be made of each school
child. Careful estimates made by the
committee indicate that TO provide q
complete medical examination for
each child when first entering the
public school would call for - add
tional medical inspectors and 10 ad
ditfonal nurses. This is for one com
plete examination upon entering the
school only, without any provision for
later examinations, such as are now
being provided In other cities and

Beatrice Bowman, superintendent If
the Navy Nurse Corps. who produced
records from her office testifyinS 10
the excellent record of Miss Ander-
son, both for character AMI service.
She has been a Navy nurse since
February S, 1917. and has advanced
rapidly in the service.
The prosecution, with Lieut.. An
drew l.. W. Gordon as judge advocate,
rested with the presentation of the
evidence. Lieut.. Horan, in his appeal,
told the court martial that the case
was unique in the annals of the Navy,
the first time that woman ever had
faced trial, and asked for a full and
honorable acquittal. This was not
granted, the verdict being mere
acquittal.
1t was explained that in the Navy
there are three degrees of acquittal-
full and honorable, honorable and
acquittal Honorable acquittar' is
supposed to be granted in a case
where there is not the slightest
vestige of evidence upon which the
charge is brought. and where there is
some implication against the moral
character Of the accused" It is very
seldom granted. Full and honorable
Is reserved for very extreme cases and
has been granted only a few times in
the history of the Navy.
Lieut.. Horan maintained that Miss
Anderson was entitled to more than
an acquittal since the charge implied
a slur against her character which the
evidence showed was unjustified. He
cited examples from civil cases in
which it was held that guilty
knowledge or at least definite reasons
for suspicion were essential to convic-
ton for liquor transportation.
The prosecution made no attempt to
break down Miss Anderson's story
and acquittal was a foregone conclu-
sion. The court-martial remained in
executive session for about 10 minutes
before the verdict was announced.
Miss Anderson, dressed in her white
navy uniform, with straw hat, was
exceptionally cool as she replied to
questions of Lieut.. Horan and faced
the court martial board The faces
of the dignified officers making up
the board were wreathed in smiles a
number of times, especially at Lieut..
Horan's reference to woman s
curiosity" and when the liquor bottles
were exhibited.
The trial of Miss Katherine c.
Clancy, the other Navy nurse accused
jointly with Miss Anderson with a
similar offense, will be held this aft.
ernoon. Miss CLANCY was an in.
terested witness of the proceedings
this morning.
In his defense of Miss Clancy, Lieut..
Horan announced that he would at.
tack the jurisdiction of the court
martial to try a Navy nurse. concern
ing whose official status there seems
to be some question. She is neither
enlisted nor commissioned. and at the
same time is believed to have a diff
ferent status from a civilian employe
Associated with Lieut.. Horan in the
defense was Comdr. Curtis B. Munger
Medical Corps, u. S. N.
The court martial board was com.
posed as follows: Capt. Yates Sterling
Comdr. John H. Iden, Comdr. Frank ]

killed Thomas Templeton at ST.
Valentines party.
An announcement to this effect
made today by Defense Counsel Lash
at the opening of his summary in
what was expected to be the final
session, came as surprise to the
crowded courtroom. since the whole
line of testimony hitherto had revolv-
ed around the accident theory.
Mr.. Lash made his statement in
reply to a question from the bench
as to whether 1t was to be understood
the defense intended to substantiate
claim that the death of Templeton
was accidental.

We intend to show that Dorothy
Perkins did not kill Templeton.'
The 17-yearold girl was pale but
apparently unshaken as she took her
seat today. She expressed confidence
