Education Board Suspends Principal Over Absence Amid Death Probe
At a board meeting President James F. Oyster suspended Horton Shupson, Takomi School principal, as police search for him in connection with Miss Abbie M Courtry's death after an operation. A proposed hygienic oath from the Antituberculosis Society was tabled as absurd. The board also recommended several applicants for teaching positions after exams, including Jessica F Murray and Mary Heller among others.

Injunction Bars Disposition of Insurance Policies as Collateral
Justice Barnard signed a temporary injunction at William C Prentiss's request. It blocks Shilman Hendrick and Manhattan Life Insurance Co of New York from handling two $19,000 policies held by the late Edward N Richards as collateral for a loan. Prentiss, executor of the Richards estate, contends the policies were deposited with Hendrick as collateral and that Hendrick refuses to treat them solely as security, risking collection.
