Bates Barred From School Athletics After Rowley Case
Ormond Bates, a popular Bates High School athlete, is banned from school athletics and any office for two terms for permitting James Rowley to play while Bates was under faculty ban. Rowley is expelled from the high school. The decision, announced by the school committee, costs Bates a key basketball teammate and leads to forfeiture of a Torrington game. Dr. Cushing apologizes in a letter to Torrington.
