PAGE 2 P.-T, OFFICERS REFUTE ‘DIRTY LUNCH' CHARGE Minority Faction Blamed for Inter-Association Dissension. A "disgruntled minority” has pro voked the accounts of dissension, embarrassing the Hickory College Parent-Teacher Asoclation, officials of the organization declared today, as they planned Friday night’s meet ing in Wayne township school No. 13. Charges that lunches served pupils of the school were contami nated by coal dust from the boiler room where they were prepared are "grossly unfair and untrue.” said Mrs. Henry Roush, president of the Parent-Teacher group, today. "We welcome an inspection by the state board of health,” said Mrs. Roush. "Tgachers of the school and nurses who have visited the school are one in agreeing that sanitary conditions prevail, and that the lunches should be continued. R. M. Huddleston, severe critic of the boiler-room kitchen, visited the state health board after last week's meeting, promising 200 signers to a petition for an investigation, but to day had not produced the petition. Opposed Removal Parent-Teacher leaders blamed the criticism on a faction which op posed the removal of A. F. Dalton as principal of the school. Dalton was succeeded this year by Charles Sawyer. The P.-T. organization took ! no part, as an organization, in the ! switch of principals. Mrs. Roush denied vigorously ac- i counts of last week’s meeting re lating that she had stifled opposi- j tion as chairman. “Everyone had a chance to vote.” she said, "and the ; vote was overwhelmingly in favor of j continuing the school lunches and for the employment of a cook.” Two state police stood outside the door during the meeting, rumors having been current that trouble was brewing. Backed by Officers Other Parent-Teacher officers j who seconded Mrs. Roush’s account j of the controversy were Ed Haley, vice-president; Mrs. Earl Stamm, secretary, and John Robey, treas urer. All declared the children’s lunches are prepared and served in a sanitary manner and that ac- I counts to the contrary are untrue, and an unfair reflection on the school.” The Parent-Teacher officers as serted a majority of the school’s patrons are represented in the j membership of the association. The j school is located at Lynhurst drive and Franklin street, serving families to the west of Mars Hill airport. CAN COMPANY IS SUED Restraint of Trade Alleged by by Trustee for Packing Concern.
