Decision of Attorney General Affects Hauling of School Children.

The state attorney general has ruled that a township 9 trustee is not required to haul a pupil to a school that is more than two miles from a school unless a school house within that distance has been moved away or discontinued. Thus, if a parent locates more than two miles from a school house the trustee is not required to transport children to and from the ichool, but if a parent locates within twa miles and the school house is tno 1 ed away or discontinued then the trus tee would be required to provide transportation.
