BOARD ORDERS ABANDONMENT | OF SCHOOL 90

Pupils to Be Be Transported to) School 67 When Fall Term Opens.

{ | |

The School Board today announced that School 90, a two-; room portable at 1402 N. Tibbs Ave, will be discontinued and its pupils transported to School 87, 3615 W. Walnut St. “Conditions at School 90 have been a matter of concern to the \ Commissioners for some time,” Su-| SW perintendent DeWitt S. Morgan, 3 said. “The building obviously is inadequate and is in such a state of disrepair that immediate action on the matter is necessary. “Because of the cost involved in making repairs to a structure which is of such temporary character, the! importance of awaiting further population developments in the area] before proceeding with construction of a permanent building and be-| cause there are vacant rooms in School 67, the Commissioners agreed unanimously that beginning with this September, the interests of all! concerned will be best served by providing transportation for the pupils of School 90 to School 67.” A delegation from the school’s | y P-T.

WARNS OF EYESIGHT

LITTERED HOUSE OF EX-LONG AID IS INVESTIGATED

BATON ROUGE, La.. June 30 (U.| P.) —Investigators searching the de-| serted mansion of the fugitive Dr. James Monroe Smith, president : | Louisiana State University until he resigned and fled Sunday night, | found today a striped convicts uni-| form that he had worn at a mas- | querade party recently. They found a scene of wild con- | fusion over which he and Mrs. | Smith had scattered clothing and | household goods in hurried depart-| ure. A few hours before the then | Governor Richard W. Leche, How) resigned, announced there was a shortage of “several hundred thou-| sand dollars” in school funds. The East Baton Rouge Parish Grand Jury, delving into the finan- | cial chaos the missing academician left behind, was ready to recess today after establishing these findings:

Loses $430,000 in Wheat

He had lost $430,000 in the wheat market in the few weeks prior to his flight. He had borrowed $500,000 from three banks, in his position as university president, signing notes by that title.

$591,000 in university bonds. He had done something with $50,000 in Orleans Parish levee bonds. The investigators got into the mansion with a court order. The Grand Jury had done about) all it could until Dr. Smith has been

Detroit authorities were certain] the couple had bought an automo- | bile there yesterday and headed for the Canadian border. | The case of Dr. Smith, however, | was only one phase of the political | upheaval now in progress and re-| ferred to as the second Louisiana | reconstruction. A Federal Grand | Jury convenes in New Orleans to-| day to investigate charges that WPA workers and materials were | politicians, including Leche, who! resigned Monday because of illness, and Attorney General David M.| Ellison, who is directing the investigation of Dr. Smith.

On Nye and Pierson in

Roscoe Pierson, exconvicts, were offered in evidence in their Criminal Court trial today. The two men are charged with being habitual criminals, conviction of which carries a life sentence. The State in the first two days of the trial has sought to prove that Nye and Pierson burglarized a Kentucky Avenue tavern last September. The jury of nine men and three women must find the exconvicts guilty of the burglary charge and | that they were both convicted on! felony charges twice previously in| order to rule a conviction on the habitual criminal charge. Yesterday two employees of the| tavern at 1717 Kentucky Ave. identi- | fied Nye and Pierson as two of the; three men they said broke in the quarters above the tavern early in| the morning of Sept. 28. They were Mrs. Elva Temple,|
