CIRCUIT COURT NOTES The long-dormant York vs. Swalls teacher tenure case from Vigo coun-
ty, which reached the Putnam Circuit court through the Clay county court channel, on changes of venue, and which was tried before Judge C. C. Gillen, came to life again in the Putnam court, Tuesday. Since being filed in 1634, the case haa been in three different circuit courts, and through the Indiana State Supreme court. It appeared .lere again today on a lAotion for judgment by the local court on the Supreme court ruling*, made last ; May. Participating in the arguments here today were Attorneys Thomas ' F. O’Mara and Paul R. Schaffer of Terre Haute, and Lyon & Abrams, I of the local court bar, for the plainj tiff. For the defendant appeared At- , torneys B. F. Small, Clyde Randel J and Judge A. L. Miller, of Terre i Haute, and James & Allee, of the Putnam bar. Judge Miller is a native of Putnam county. The plaintiff, Ivan Ray York, formerly was a teacher in the Lost i Creek township schools in Vigo county, and brought suit for $12,000 damages against James Swalls, township trustee, alleging York had a teaching : contract under the teacher tenure ^ act, which was not accepted by Swalls. and that York was damaged thereby. The case was given a protracted hearing in the Putnam court and was appealed to the state’s highest court by the defendant, Lost Creek school township, and that court reversed the finding of Judge Gillen—the only case tried by him which was reversed by the Supreme court, it is said.
