Battle Brewing For State School Post in Indiana
Indianapolis APT. Competition for the nomination of Indiana state school superintendent quickened as Richard D. Wells faced internal pressure from both parties. Wells parted with a top department executive, Robert H. Uplinger, amid tensions over curriculum and opposition prospects at the June Republican convention. Uplinger said he left after Wells’ administrative changes, while Wells hinted at friendly ties with Dr. Negley influencing the split. Negley, a former assistant superintendent, is widely seen as weighing a Republican bid against Wells. In Democratic ranks, education candidates grew to four, led by Rep. Paul J. Urich, with others from South Bend and Muncie joining the field. Wells announced approval to buy Tudor Hall for use as a special education center, a plan previously blocked for freshman classes at Crispus Attucks High School. The acquisition is valued at about 3.3 million with estimated Indianapolis support near 15 million. A three-page document from Charles E. Marlin reviewed a 1967-69 vocational-education audit, noting corrective steps and continued administrative improvements. Wells accused opponents of attempting to smear him over the audit findings.
