SCHOOL BOARD BANS POLITICS FOR EMPLOYES President Asks Workers to Ballot but to Refrain From Campaigning. Strict adherence to the clause in the school board rules forbidding any board officer or employe to participate in partisan politics, to serve on committee, or engage in any political activity, during a poltical campaign, was ordered today by Russel Willson, president, in a letter to A. B. Good, business director. • This, of course, shall in no way ? bridge or defeat each employes right and duty to vote, “Willson explained. “The board would urge its employes to exercise such right, but it requests that none of its employes shall serve on any election board, nor absent themselves from duty except for such proper length of time as may be necessary for them to vote.’’ It is thought that this action on the part of Willson resulted from rumor that Fred Kepner, board member, had been named election board inspector in the Twelfth V/ayne township precinct. Kepner denied he would serve, and said that someone else had been appointed in his place.
