HEAR PLEA TO
ANNEX SCHOOL
Fred Kepner Retires, as
Board Holds Last
Meeting of 1881.

The indianapolis school board
tugged down the curtain on its 1891
activities Tuesday night with ac-
ceptance of several annual reports,
ushering one commissioner out Of
service, and hearing a delegation
from University Heights.
The latter asked support of an
ordinance to annex Perry township
school No. 2, adjoining University
Heights, and which ITO city chill
dren attend
Unable to reach an agreement on
transfers with the school board,
Oran Green. Perry trustee, has de-
clared those pupils must be trans
ferred to city school No. ~. two
miles away.
Give Kepner Bouquet
Showing favorable attitude to-
ward annexation, the board assured
the delegation it would give the plea
consideration.
Adopting a resolution of tribute
and thanks to Fred Kepner, retir-
ing commissioner, the board topped
off the evening by presenting him
with bouquet. Samuel E. Garri-
son, attorney, will succeed Kepner.
When the old faction was swept
out of the school board, Kepner was
left for two years and the new COM
miSsioners Tuesday night praised
him for cooperation and his cour-
tesy.

BONUS PAYMENT
VALUE IS CITED
State Would Get Benefit,
Says V. F. w. Head.

Immediate cash payment of the
balance due World war veterans on
adjusted service certificates would
bring into the state of Indiana the
approximate sum of 49,543 ,800," E.
A. Cox, Seventh district command
er of Veterans of Foreign Wars,
stated today.
Distribution of the nearly two
billion-dollar balance due would
have a beneficial effect on all states
and sections of the United States"
Fox believes.
Veterans of Foreign Wars already
have gone on record in favor of
legislation toward this end. A plea
for favorable support of measures
of this character is being prepared
by Indiana members to be forward
ed to representatives in congress.
Petitions are being circulated by
the veterans which urge legislation
authorizing immediate cash pay
ment of the adjusted service GER
tificates.
