Board Mulls Dismissal Of Mrs Morris Over Petitions
Attorneys for the school board rely on testimony from Board Member Stanley Hedley and Board President J. L. Schultz, stating Mrs Morris was not re employed due to petitions from many parents opposing her retention. Hedley noted she had been shifted from Stevens to Bailey school two years earlier amid similar petitions and alleged she failed to promote his two children. Both sides plan further testimony before Judge C. W. Waycraft in Philadelphia, with later arguments to be presented and a decision to be made without a jury. Construction on the building had continued under a circuit court order after an injunction earlier sought by a committee led by Jonathan Zook.
