BAKER GOES
OUT BY CLOSE
VOTE OF 3 TO 2
School Board Accepts Resig
nation of Attorney Held
Best Qualified.
LAWYER SHOPPING HIT
“ As bad bean expected, the resignation
of Albert Baker, for twenty-two years at
torney for the Indianapolis hoard of
School commissioners, was accepted at the
'special meeting of the board last night.
The action was taken, however, only
after a hard fight and by a vote of
S to i, Mrs Julia Belle Tntewller, Bert
;S. Gadd and Clarence E. Crippln voting
for acceptance of the resignation, and
'/W. D. Allison and Charles L. Barry for
Its rejection.
” The selection of Mr. Baker’s successor
eras not considered and no time was set
,for taking up the matter. Several names
have been mentioned for the position,
•those of Merle N. A. Walker and Fred
aartck A. Matson being most frequently
.-. Before the final vote on Mr. Baker’s
resignation was taken. Mr. Barry made
-s determined effort to put through a
motion rejecting the resignation and ap
pointing a committee of three to call
Jon Mr. Baker and request him to reeon
-sider the matter. This motion was lost
:T>y the same vote as was cast on the mo
tlon to accept the resignation.
BIRRT URGES
BAKER’S EESTEJtTION.
” In apeaklng In support of his motion
Mr. Barry said: "It was with feelings
~ot profound regTet and deep sorrow that
-I read Mr. Baker's resignation. For
' more than a quarter of a century Albert
-Baker has been considered a wise and
Ttrne friend of school affairs, first as a
’member of the board, and after that for
twenty-one years as attorney for the
Aboard. He is more familiar with school
*ftalrs than nny other member of the
"Indianapolis bar. Ills fitness, falthful
ness and constancy have been a matter
of comment cf the bar of the city, and
- no man ever has questioned his integrity,
honesty and ability. He Is by far the
best qualified lawyer In the city for the
* position. I feel somehow that a great
.-misunderstanding exists throughout this
* nnfortnnate affair and it will be a calam
ity If he Is lost to the school city. We
Jshould get him to reconsider his resig
- nation and an effort should be made to
re-establish the old friendly relations
that formerly existed between us.
f "He has few equals and no superiors
lat the bar and his standing is so high
tffat If we accept big resignation the mo
tives of our board will be questioned.
- People will ask why this ha3 been done.
’. We are not here to gratify the spite of
any one person; we are not here to gratify
the ambition of any one person or to help
-out the friends of any one person. We
"re here for the welfare of the children
of Indianapolis.”
' Mr. Barry then called attention to the
'ffcct that the laws under which, the
of the city operate are largely the
*.work of Mr. Baker's efforts and that the
"board recognized his worth and value
’last year when it Increased his salary
and some members publicly exprea-ed the
opinion that the salary was not com
mensurate with his services.
OUSTING IS
DECLARED TRAGEDY.
After the final vote had been taken,
- Mr. Barry said, "This is more than an
Incident, It Is a tragedy.’’
Mr. Crippln then made a statement In
—wM-eK-he explained his call on Mr. Baker
Jlast Friday and the ensuing conversation
- -that resulted In his resignation.
. Mr. Crippln briefly reviewed the entire
matter, which arose over an opinion given
* the board by Mr. Baker at Its last rueet-
tng In which he held that the contract
entered Into between the school board of
Woodruff Place and the board of school
.-Commissioners, by the terms of which
Woodruff Place children were educated In
city schools at a loss of $#,300 to the
-school city of Indianapolis, was binding
This contract was signed by George C.
••Hitt, business director of the board,
without the approval or knowledge of
the board. The same thing had been
done annually, it was shown, for six
teen years previous to the last contract.
J “I agree with all Mr. Barry has said
rabout Mr. Baker's services to the school
Mr. Crlppin said, “and I am not
unmindful of his great services as evi
' deuced by the Increase of salary voted
-him last year, and I regret that he
thought It necessary to offer his resig
nation. But I could not reconcile his
opinion in the Woodruff Place case with
* common sense.’’
-CRIPFIN TELLS OF
_CALL ON BAKER.
Mr. Crlppin then told of how he had
taken a resolution of the board, adopted
July 27. ID2O, to Mr. Baker, hoping that
a reading of it would cause the attorney
to change his mind. This resolution fixed
the fees”which would be charged children
coming to Indianapolis schools from out
,aide the city and Mr. Crlppin contended
that this resolution applied to Woodruff
Place as well as to anywhere else, espe
cially as the old contract had expired and
anew one had not yet been entered luto.
"I showed Mr. Baker this resolution."
Mr. Crippln said, “hoping that he would
modify his opinion and that it would not
be necessary to have it reviewed by an
other attorney. He very quickly told me
-that It did not apply to the case at hand.
I then told him the majority of the board
not agree with him and that we di.l
•not intend to let this pass.”
- Mr. Barry severely criticised Mr. Crip
•pin for what he termed a policy of shop
ping around among lawyers until he
* found one who would give him an opin
ion conforming to that of a majority of
-the board.
'asks for POLICT
ON SCHOOL NO. 70.
Before the headline attraction of the
evening, the Baker resignation, was con
sidered. Harry E. Yockey, deputy city
attorney, appeared before the board on
Jbehalf of the Parent Teacher Association
•of School No. 70 to And out the policy
"of the board In regard to anew building.
•He explained that two churches are now
. being used to take care of the overflow
of children and that while the parents
-were not In favor of portables they would

•-erected next year. Mrs. Tutewiler ex
plained that anew building was on the
-program for 1022, and Mr. Allison point
3>d out that while be was in favor of
-the building, that the limit of bonded
indebtedness of the school city of In
dianapolis is $12,000,000 and that $11,000,-
JDOO of this amount is accounted for in
-buildings now under contract,
f E. U. Graff, superintendent of the in
struction committee, reported on plans
Tor the reorganization of the normal
-School, which is now housi and at School

as follows: That temporary quarters be

REAL BEER! 30C
A STEIN IN CHI
‘Good Old Days’ Brought Back
as Loop Serves Prehistoric
Beverage.
CHICAGO, April 6.—The “good old
days” were baek in Chicago today.
Real prehtstorie beer flowed In golden
and frothing streams over the bars of
most of the reformed saloons and the
thirsty were drinking long and deep.
Chicagoans, the malted species, were
looping the loop from one case to an
other and lining up to bars which were
three deep.
The swish of bar towel 9 and the loud,
confidential conversation between patrons
gave the aspect of the “old day's” with
hut one thing missing—the bowl of
pretzels.
“Drink up and buy yourself another,”
was frequently heard.
All of which means that treating has
passed. Most drinkers now belong to
the Dykesmlth Club—they buy their own
and drink It.
Beer about 0 per cent Is selling for 30
j cents a stein. One brew-dispenser was
j asked how he got his supply.
From behind his white apron he re
plied :
“We robbed the brewery. We are go
ing to rob It on the first of each month.
Have another stein?”

there was no re
lief for me until
I began taking
Dr. Pierce’s Fa
vorite Prescrip

time I suCered
from organic
trouble, with
pains in my side,
backache, and
bearing pains.
I was a miser- 1
able wreck, got
so thin I only
weighed ninety
pounds. Since taking the 'Prescrip
tion ’ I now weigh 140 pounds, and
do not have an ache or a pain, and
am completely rid of all my ailments.
Can do all my work and am strong
and healthy.”—Mrs. Theresa Wilku*-
