CANNOT WEAR HEEL
PLATES IN SCHOOL.
HIGH Court RULES
langdon Board of Education
Upheld in Decision Against
High School Senior

The metallic click of heel plates
against the polished hardwood floors
OF the Langdon high school was 81
fenced Saturday by order of the North
Dakota supreme court.
UNFOLDING a decision of the Caya-
Her county district court, the high
court ruled that school officials have
the power to forbid pupils to wear
metal heel plates while attending
classes.
The case grew out of a rule adopted
by the board of education of the city
OF L%angdon threatening with expul-
sion or suspension ANY boy wearing
metal heel plates On his Shoes" on
and after Sept. %, 1880.
G.. E. StOrmberg. father of Murray
Stromberg. a senior and athlete at
the school, contested the boards rule,
n obtained a temporary restraining
order. The cas- then came to trial
without a jury before Judge w. j.
Kneeshaw. who upheld the school
board and ordered the restraining Or
der vacated. Stromberg appealed to
the supreme court.
The temporary restraining order
expired this week. and the supreme
court acted rapidly on the case so
that the students guilty of an infrac-
ton against the rule would not be
uncertain as to their status at the
school. Murray is to graduate this
June.
Tho hir1DnYs nnY1rf iN N AAnScsOsH tHv
Judge w. L. Nuessle, held that the
board of education may forbid pupils
to wear metal heel plates when it
appears that the use of such plates
Injuries the floors of the school more
than would the use OF heels without
plates. and causes such noise and
confusion in and about the school
building as to interfere with the con-
duct and discipline of the school,"
The elder Stromberg, who ordered
his son to wear heel. plates in defiance
to the school boards ruling. claimed
the rule was unreasonable, arbitrary
and an infringement on his parental
to determine what is reasonable
and proper apparel for his son. He
the right OF a parent to ed
ucate. discipline and direct his chill
.ren is paramount.
The courts decision, in commenting
OH the parents claims, stated that "of
course, in most instances. the right of
the parent is paramount. but some
times the interests of the public gen.
orally require that the parent shall
give way"
I'VE think this is so in the instant
case" the decision continues. 1.-The
trial court found. and we think right
ly, that under the circumstances there
was no abuse of authority and the
was proper and reasonable"
Calling attention to the boys school
conduct. the supreme court decision
states the record discloses that Muir
ray Stromberg was an excellent STU
dent. No exception could be taken to
his conduct"
