PARENTS REQUIRED
AT SCHOOL DANCES
Board DEGREES Strict Rules
for Fraternity and Soror-
ity Functions.

Responsibility for the conduct Of
high school girls and boys in fra
ternities and soror1ties during social
functions outside OF the school was
placed squarely on the shoulders of
parents by the Board of Education at
a regular meeting held at the Frank
lin School yesterday afternoon.
The board decreed that where q So
cial function is held at a private home
the presence of one parent will be
sufficient, but where a dance or other
meeting is held at a public place no
less than three parents should be IN
attendance. Unless the members OF
the fraternities and sororities live up
to the new strict regulations, the
school officials made it plain they will
withdraw approval Of the offending
orga nizations.
Restricts Meetings in Schools.
1t also was decided that one faculty
adviser must be present at fraternity
and sorority meetings held in the
schools. In a statement DR.. Frank W.
Ballou. superintendent. explained that
the additional regulations are neces-
sary to set up a more definite method
OF supervision.
Acting at the request of the Dis
trict Commissioners, the board voted
to continue the high school safety
patrol. Because of the injury of two
boys in the northeast while standing
on the sidewalk some persons had
recommended the abandonment of the
patrol.
DR.. Ballou announced the appoint
ment of DR.. George X. Anderson of
