Coolidge School Vote
On Suffrage Corrected
After Error Is Found

John F. Brougher, principal of
Calvin Coolidge High School, Fifth
and Tuckerman streets NV. today
corrected a typographical error
made somewhere along the line in
tabulating suffrage poll results Of
votes of pupils at his school on
Tuesday. They were released by
the Washington Board Of Trade.
The correct figures were both
telephoned and reported in writing
to the Student Council at Central
High School, he said. Later, they
were sent to the office Of Norman
]. Nelson, associate superintendent
of schools in charge of senior and
Junior high schools, under whose
direction the student referendum
was taken. Mr.. Brougher said he
does not know where the error
occurred but that 1t probably came
in mimeographing.
Correct Figure Was SS7.
The error was made in dropping
one of the digits in the Yes vote
for national representation. 1t ap-
peared as 81, when it should have
been 987.
The correct Calvin Coolidge High
School vote was:
Local National
Yes No Yes NO
671 543 987 227
MIR. Nelson's Office said the local
suffrage "Yes" total of 1851. given
the newspapers, was incorrect and
should have been 1901. In the
YES" national representation col
umn, the addition Of the 900 cor
rected votes makes that total 81 .837
The missing ballot box in the
adult plebiScite last Tuesday still
was being sought today by plebiscite
officials. This box, from the Car
yer School had been delivered to
plebiscite headquarters Tuesday
night, but its ballots never have
been counted.
Final Vote Will Be Changed.
The registration from Carver
School, 1,103 voters. had been in
cluded in the grand total registra-
ton of 169, ,654 reported early Wed
nesday morning. But the break
down between yes" and mo" votes
has not been counted or registered
1t will change the ANAL vote in the
plebiscite.
Addition of eight absentee ballots
on which yes" votes were record
ed on both local and national suf-
frage, brought the total registration
yesterday up to 169,662.
With the Carver ballots still un-
counted, the plebiscite returns to-
day still stood:
Local suffrage, yes, 117,3s3; no,
49, 700.
National representation, yes, 140,-
101; no, 26.710.
