He's still fighting.
Six years ago the attack OF
polio left Mr.. Baker paralyzed

was in an iron lung for six
months. He and his wife had one

Several board members said
they had this in mind. One,
Wesley S. Williams, said he in
tended to ask to have DR.. Hager
appear at the monthly board
meeting Wednesday.
Board members queried by a
reporter mostly said they were
lreserving judgment on the mat
ter of discipline in the reported
cheating case.
1t was disclosed several days
ago that some students in a
senior education philosophy
class were reported to have
cheated during a test given
April 81, when their professor
DR.. Matthew j. Whitehead, was
out Of town. The test was given
on the honor system, without
faculty supervision.
Investigation Ordered

Boards Personnel Committee
ordered School Supt. Hobart M
Corning to make an investiga-
ton suggesting that offending
students be punished if this
proved appropriate. Expulsion
was one penalty suggested.

public statement opposed punish
ing the students involved, how

that the entire matter would
better have been left in the
hands of the college itself.
/ Mr.. Williams, a Personnel
Committee member, was some

Hager's statement.

which the examination was
