 Mia Edith Sanderson of Berkeley
 Calif.. central figure in the trial oi a group of American teachers for alleged religious propa ganda, has told to the Associated Press the
 inside story of the closing here Of the American school for girls.
 When Miss Jennie Jillson. direc- tor of the school, was i'll America. two of our fine girls came to me ono day and said they had been reading the New Testament for some time and that they would be
 interested in talking with me when- ever possible" Miss Sanderson said, Perhaps if had been older and more experienced. l might have told them that l was sorry but that it was impossible for me to talk to them on religious matters because of the governments not desiring it. and that they would have to wait until they had graduated from the school, some four years later. I shall not try either 10 accuse or justify myself In the trial here.
 Those who know me well will understand why ] succumbed to the temptation, If temptation it was. In the fall when school started. I re- solved to try to keep from talking 10 these girls about religious mat ters. For some time I refrained, but afterwards I began to talk with ham when they came to me. Miss ,Iillson was not cognizant of this until 1t came to head recently. During this time Lucille Day had also talked with these girls and had given them at least two pamphlets
 Like many foolish 'teen-age children, these girls, Sentha and Madalet. kept diaries, and unwisely advertised the fact that they wrote secrets therein. One of them also unwisely made sighting remarks about things Turkish.
 "A group of girls. motivated we think by what they thought to be patriotism. plus the desire to pay back some little personal grev- ances, formed club which they called the 'wide-awakes' and waited for chance to make known to the what they considered wrong going on in the school. They learned about the diaries, stole them, took them to the Turkish de- partment of education. and thus began the inspection which led to the closing of the school and our trial.
 50 many accusations have been made that sometimes wearily won- der whether there was any desire or effort on my part to influence other girls in a direct Christian way, but there Is one fact which
