SCHOOL BOARD
SAYS CONTRACT
CLOSED MATTER

That discussion OF B. M. Cru
wells four-year, $450O year, con-
tract as superintendent Of Ell Cen
tro elementary schools is ended as
far as the school board is con-
cerned was the statement to a del
egation which yesterday afternoon
attended a school board meeting
to request information relative to
the contract.
AT the request OF the delegation,
representing BIT persons whose
names appeared on petition
against the disputed contract, min
utes of the June 80 meeting of the
school board were read. These
minutes showed that the contract
with Gruwell had been ratified
One member of the delegation
then asked if the board planned
any other action on the contract
and was informed that it is CLOSED
matter with that body.
Minutes of the June 80 meeting
showed that w. A. Tondro and l.
R. Philley voted in favor of rati-
flying the contract, and Mrs. j. NJ
Adair voted against it. Mrs. Adair
has held a consistent stand against
the long-tim contract since it was
first discussed, but has been in the
minority.
The delegation last night was a
part of the same body which sew
eral weeks ago visited the school
board to present the petition
against the contract. Opposition
is based on the contention that no
school official should, at the pres
ent time, be assured of large sal
ary for any length of time, in the
face of economic conditions.

Heavier Loss In
Blaze At Heber

Further investigation today devel-
oped the fact that the loss incurred
in the burning of the Palm Garden
dance hall at Heber Thursday night
was much higher than at first an
ticipated.
Dad Noland, who operated the
dance hall, asserted his loss would
probably run as high as $4,000, part
ly covered by insurance. The floor
in the dance hall alone cost $4,000,
he said, and other equipment would
increase the loss.
This was the second time tho
dance hall had burned, the original
one being destroyed few years ago.

GERMANS SEEK
LEGAL MEANS TO
CURB Won PAPEN
BY FREDERICK KUN
nited Press Staff COrreSpOnder


BERLIN, July 23.-The supreme
court, in session at Leipzig, today
began consideration of petitions of
the ousted Prussian cabinet and
the governments OF the state of
Bavaria and Baden seeking to
break Chancellor Won Papen's con-
troll of the Prussian administration
through legal means.
A prolonged and tangled legal
struggle was forecast, but politicians
predicted that the ultimate decision
would be favorable to the reich.
Later today, however, Prussia's
representatives modified their
junction petition, demanding only
that Won Papen and his officials
be forbidden to call themselves
ministers or to unseat existing
ministers or officials and also that
they be forbidden to appoint new
Prussian representatives to the fed
eral council.

LOST BATTALION
SITE DISCOVERED
AFTER Is YEARS
BY RALPH HEINZEN
United Press Staff Correspondent

OHutcu TTcSS StdII correspondent
VARENNES, France. July 23.-
A searching party in the Apremont
woods of the Argonne forest has
uncovered the whole setting of one
of the most dramatic incidents of
the World war, the fight against
circling Germans, thirst and hun
ger of the famed American Lost
Battalion" Under the leaves of 13
autumns, the searchers found re-
mains of at least one of the Amer
lean heroes.
AS the searchers brushed away
the leaves and cut through the
young saplings that have choked
the forest, they found on the north
side Of the gulley between Binar-
vile and Apremont historic evil
dence of the great struggle.
The side of the hill is honey
combed with "foxholes," cut into
the shale and just large enough to
hide a man. There 600 men took
cover when they found that they
had lost contact with their own
troops. Only 1874 came out alive.
Even after 13 years it is possible
to picture the heroic struggle of
the besieged men. In the kitchen"
hole is a great rusted can, punched
full of holes, which shows that the
cooks sought to build a fire and
heat water for coffee and tea.
All around are pieces of equip
ment, rusted bayonets, rifles, gas
masks. After hostilities, the bodies
were taken to Romagne cemetery,
but it was 13 years later before the
setting of this dramatic action was
found again and it will now be
thoroughly hunted.

Here's one that's reminiscent OF
the person who tied a piece OF
string on his or her finger TO re-
member something, and then forgot
what it was he wanted to recall.

uncovered a dusty old metal tree
marker, which said that This tree

ment society Of Waltham, May 25,
1884, TO commemorate the birthday
of Ralph Waldo Emerson who was
born in Boston, May IS, 1880, and

Tires Taken From
Freight Train

All peace officers in Imperial
county today had been asked by
special agents of the Southern Pa
cific railroad to be on the watch
for a great quantity of tires and
tubes stolen from a freight car en-
route from Los Angeles to Tucum-
carl, N. M.
1t is the theory of the agents
that the goods may have been
stolen at inland. They did not
know where the freight car was
broken into.
The loot included Al tires and
tubes, 26 tubes separate from the
tires, 1920 rim nuts and 1920 valve
caps. Southern Pacific agents also
have notified officers all along the

AMERICAN OPERA
URGED BY ERSK|NE
Music of Its Own Sung by
Own Singers Proposed
for Nation.

America should have its own opera.
sung in its own language, by its own
singers.
Thus spoke DR.. John Erskine. cele-
brated literary and musical authority,
at the Central High School Community
Center last night, while discussing
Music in Our Daily Lives"
American singers have to go abroad
to achieve recognition" he said. mo
matter how we'll Susie Smith may sing,
Americans would prefer to hear Sig
nora somebody or other. Further
more, one New Yorker recently told me
that he would not like an opera in Eng
lish because then he would understand
what the characters are singing"
Music is subject for museums and
not living art for many reasons" he
said There are the schools. Music
teachers are required to study kilowatt
etc, and then If they have any time
left they take up music.
Rich In Tradition.
America has a rich tradition in
music. Perhaps We find it not so good
as that of Europe. But 1t is ours and
II we express ourselves in music we must
realize this"
DR.. Erskine pointed out that the OPP
portunity for musical progress is at
hand. He said, Really good orches-
tras are springing up. two or three a
week, in the West and South. Citizens
are playing in them because they enjoy
it, and by SO doing gain an apprecia-
ton of art in the best way-by prac-
ticing it,
we like jazz because the players
enjoy themselves. OrchestraS OF any
other sort are usually solemn, perhaps
because they are composed too often of
disappointed liveS-men who wanted to
be great soloists-rather than of those,
like Bach, who played anytime and
anywhere, not for money, but because
he enjoyed it."

DR.. Erskine spoke of the Washing

SCHOOL FIRE HAZARDS
CUT, CHIEF DECLARES
Watson Tells House Subcommittee
Certain Minor Conditions Still
to Be Corrected.

Fire hazards in the public schools
have been reduced materially, but there
are certain minor conditions that are
not yet satisfactory, Fire Chief George
s. Watson told the House Subcommittee
on Appropriations during recent hear
ings on the 1888 District budget.
Once a year the Fire Department,
Chief Watson said, makes a thorough
inspection of the schools and recon-
mends changes which should be made
to eliminate fire hazards. Due to the
appropriation allowed by the commit
tee last year, he declared, changes were
made as recommended by the Fire De-
partment which improved conditions.
Chairman Cannon asked Mr.. Watson
If fire prevention conditions in the
schools were satisfactory. In reply, he
said:
II would not go that far. There are
certain minor things which remain to
be done, and which we have been doing
from year to year as result of our an
nual inspection. But I do not believe
there are any Of what you would re-
gard as major fire hazards In our
schools"
