Court of Appeals UphOIds Lower
Court in School Building Case
County Commissioners Are Given Authority Proceed
Originally Planned in Carrying Through Their
Best Judgment in Two High School Proposition

For the second time the County
Commissioners have been given the
"go ahead signal on the school
building program this time by the
Maryland Court of Appeals. In an
opinion handed down yesterday at
Annapolis the court upheld the de-
cision of the Circuit Court here.
A telegram was received here this
morning by Neil c, Fraley, attorney
for the County Commissioners, from
Maurice Ogle, clerk of the Maryland
Court Of Appeals The telegram read
"Opinion filed in Coddington case.
Decree affirmed with costs Richard
L. Davis, clerk of the Circuit Court,
said he probably would receive the
full opinion today.
The lower court here last Novcm-
Der sustained demurrer filed i'm re-
ply to a bill of complaint by George
+. Coddngton, r. +. McIntire, Cliff
ford Friend and others, declaring that
the plaintiffs motion that the de-
PENDANTS demurrer be not received,
is ovcrruled and further adjudgcd,
ordered and declared that the Bill Of
Complaint in the cause is dismissed.
The plaintiffs were ordered to pay
the costs of the case, and this point
also was upheld by the Appeals
Court.
The original suit asked that the
Commissioners be enjoined perma-
nently from eXpcnding money from a
recent act Of the legislature in the
building of new high schools at Oak
land and the Cove.
In the judges opinions ON Novem-
Der 10, which the appeals court
has Just upheld, they stated that the
bill was faulty in not setting out
clearly and in detail certain ale
cations which would seem essential
to entitle them to relief Of iniunc-
ton"
The opinion stated that the County
Commissioners had the power under
the legislative act to build two new
high schools near Oakland and at
the Cove, provided the State Superin-
tendent Of Schools approves and do
not have to spend the money only for
present high schools and elementary
buildings at Oakland, Accident, Kitz-
miller, Friendsville and Grantsville.
The arguments in the case were
heard before the court of appeals on
April l8.
The Judges last November ruled
there lis no limitation, as the COM
plainants claimed, that the fund
authorized may be spent only on exist
ing schools or new schools in the five
named communities. The law gives
the County Commissioners full power
and authority to make final decision
as to new schools and improvements
of old ones, subject to approval of
the State Superintendent of Schools.
even though they confer with adj
visory boards. The courts will not
interfere with the exercise Of discrc-
ton by school directors in matters
confided by law to their Judgment,
unless there is a clear abuse of the
discretion or a violation of the law"

Mercury Dips to 20

A cold wind blew out of north last
Sunday night and by early Monday
morning the temperature had dropped
to 26 degrees to deposit heavy frost
over the land. Rhubarb, asparagus
and fruit blossoms were damaged,
even weeds, grass and clover were
nipped.
The rainy weather still hampers
farmers and gardeners. A violent
electrical storm struck the county
early last Friday morning. AT the
same time storms brought tornadoes
and snow to the mid-western states.
