THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

DUNN FAVORED TO WIN COUNTY SCHOOL BERTH Trustee Appears to Have Vote Edge in Race to Be Decided Monday. Township trusteeship is the “best training school for county superintendents in the opinion of fellow board members who are supporting J. Malcolm Dunn. Wayne township trustee, for election Monday as Marion county school superintendent. Trustees opposing Dunn hold a different view. “It is cowardly for a trustee to resign the job for which he was elected by the people to advance himself through the superintendency,’’ is the way one of them put it. So conflict looms when the trustees meet to decide on a Democratic successor to Fred T. Gladden. Republican, as county superintendent. Holds to Political Basis Dunn has admitted that politics and not scholarship will be the deciding factor. This view- seems held generally, although not expressed so boldly by his fellow board members. The nine township trustees constitute the county board of education, but Dunn is barred from voting for himself for superintendent. A poll of the township by The Times today revealed the following: Miss Hannah A. Noone, Center township, noncommittal. John Routon, Decatur township, noncommittal, but rated as a supporter of William A. Beavers, Shadeland school principal. Harry L. Maze, Frankin township, backing Earl Tolin, Acton school principal. Omer Green, Perry township, admittedly for Dunn. Robert E. Hoffman, Pike township, noncommittal, but said to be pledged to Dunn. Charles M. Walker, Warren township, who .is for Beavers. Mrs. Maggie G. Maxwell, Washington township, Dunn. Three Sure for Dunn This gives Dunn three certain votes and he needs five for election. It makes Beavers his leading opponent, with two for a starter. Others in the race are: Pleasant R. Hightower, Butler professor, with no known supporters. Ora W. Nicely, Washington high school teacher, said at one time to have backing from the Governor’s office, but Governor Paul V. McNutt denied to another candidate, that he is for any one. Mrs. Maxwell proved to be the most eloquent backer of Dunn. Commenting on the fact that he is the only one of the five without a firstgrade superintendent’s license, she said: “He has a second-grade license and that fulfills the law. He is a graduate of Purdue university. As far as experience goes, his two years as a member of the county board of

education is the best training possible. Dunn is well qualified and should be chosen." All Dunn backers expressed the view that it is perfectly proper to vote for a trustee for superintendent “if he has the necessary qualifications." Dunn is secretary of the politically strong Indiana Trustees' Association. Walker was the most outspoken against his candidacy. ’ I think he ought to stick to his job as trustee,” he declared and made the point about it being ‘ cowardly" to resign.

Routon said he is for a “school man" for the post, but refused to say whom. He did declare that Dunn sought his support as long ago as last summer. Hoffman said he hadn’t publicly said whom he will support and relused to deny that he is pledged to Dunn. Miss Noone expressed herself as being for the “best nan," but refused to identify him. So the contest lies apparently between Dunn and Beavers, with a possible dark horse having an outside chance to win.
