SEEK PLAN TO OUST POLITICS FROM SCHOOLS C. of C. Group to Adopt Definite Program at April 4 Meeting. A definite plan for organization and election of the Indianapolis school board designed to eliminate political and factional divisions will be selected by the Indianapolis Chamber of Commerce educational committee at its next meeting, April 4. Discussion of several plans under consideration for recommendation was held Inesday. Albert l. cr, for many years school board attorney, suggested that a board of five members be elected for four years, elections held at two-year intervals. Object to Manager Plan At present, all five members are elected at the same time, although not taking office at the same time. Baker objected to a plan suggested by Zoercher, State tax board member, whereby the city manager commission would select a school manager or school board, pointing out the school city is important enough to be kept as a separate taxing unit. Zoercher, in making his suggestion, declared election of school commissioners should be as far removed from politics as possible. Suggestion was made by Baker that a board of six members might be a success, despite the possibility of a tie vote. Several Schemes roposed Baker pointed out that early plans of the committee, providing for six year terms, are illegal because of the four-year term legal limit. One suggestion was for a board of nine, serving six years, three elected every two years. Another proposal was for a board of nine appointed by Marion County court judges, three to be named every two years. A third proposal was for a board of five, serving five years, one member being appointed by the judges each year.
