High School
Victory Corps

The Board of Education met in
regular session ON Tuesday, Novem-
Der 10th. Those present were DR..
T. B. Moore, President, Mrs. Wallace
williams, vice-President and Mr.
Reuben Reynolds.
The minutes of the regular meet
ing of October 18th were read ana
approved, sundry bills ordered paid.
The following designations were
received and accepted with regret:
Mrs. Katherine S. Kilby, assistant
teacher in the Rising Sun High
School and Mr.. Loren c. Murray,
Industrial Arts teacher in the Elk
ton High school.
The Board confirmed the appoint
ment of Miss Betty Buckingham as
assistant teacher in the Cecilton
High school
The Superintendent then discuss
ed with the Board at some length,
the organization of Victory Corps
in the high schools of the county
and various curriculum changes that
are being made and can be expected
to be made in line with the war ef-
fort. The Victory Corps organization
is a Nationwide movement spon-
sored by the Federal Government
and is being set up with the idea in
mind that it will cause the high
school students to realize that the
country is at war and that they can
assist the war effort in very ma
terial way. This organization in
cludes those high school students
who are participating in physical
fitness programs, taking subjects
which will benefit them in industry
or the armed forces and assisting in
community civilian defense activi-
ties.
The curriculum changes are com
ing in the fields of Mathematics and
Science, especially, in which fields
the Government is asking that high
school boys be given more thorough
instruction in the fundamentals OF
these subjects looking forward to
the time when they will enter the
armed forces of the Nation. The
Superintendent also informed the
Board that plans were being dis
cussed whereby some of the boys
and girls in the high school could
take day classes in the machine shop
which has recently been set up in
the old Elkton High school for adult
defense classes. 1t is hoped that
these boys and girls will be enabled
to take about three hours of work
daily and receive credit for this work
toward high school graduation. The
Board then adjourned.

Apparent Reluctance to Support Former GOver-
 nor Vanishes at Meeting

PARISH MUST PAY
 INJURED MEMBER
Verdict of $7S9 Given Plaintiff, John J. Eustace
 in Superior Court

A judgment of $7S9 has been re- turned by Judge A. Cornell in favor of John J. Eustace who brought a $10,000 civil action against the Sa- cred Heart parish of Waterbury as a result of a fall on its property March 3, 1940. The plaintiff who is a parishioner and a member of its Community house claimed he fell on an icy sidewalk at the rear of the church as he came from the Com munity house. He charged the de- fendant with negligence for failure to remove the icy condition and pro- vide sufficient lighting on the pro- perty.
 It was ruled in the decision that the defendant violated its duty to maintain the premises in reason ably safe condition for the use of persons who may have occasion to use them, and that the plaintiff did not contribute negligence through improper lookout as claimed by the defense.
 Injuries listed by the plaintiff in- cluded abrasions of the head, con- cussion of the brain, fracture of left wrist, and abrasions to the left shoulder, left side, left knee, left an- kle. He claimed he slipped on the walk and was thrown against stair way leading to the cellar of the rec tory. The force of the fall precipi-
 tated him down the flight of stairs, he alleged.
