GIRL'S FATHER TO FIGHT G. G. Shndlnger Makes Threat to "Knock the Block Off of Lawyer Following Accusation Over 200 Attend the Inquiry. O. G. Shadinger. father of Gall Ehad inger. who was whipped by her teach er. Miss Elizabeth Epelch. following a disturbance at the Highland School, threatened to "knock the block off" of Thad Vreeland. an attorney, after Mr. Vreeland last night had accused Mr. Hhadinger by Implication of forging the deportment cards of his daugh ter. Mr. Vreeland Jumped up and pro fessed entire willingness to undergo the performance, assuring Mr. Shad Inger that "you had better Just try and do It." R. L. Pabln, chairman, and I. N. Flelschner, who compose the teachers' committee of the Board of Education and were conducting an Inquiry Into the charges made by Mr. Ehadlnger that Miss Epelch had whipped his daughter severely and without cause, poured oil on the ruffled waters, i Report Doe December 1. It was at this moment that the hear ing concluded and the committee an nounced that It would make a report to the Board December 1. In the meantime, J. D. Stanley, prin cipal of the Highland School, had been charged by Mr. Ehadlnger with offer ing him a bribe In the form of a real estate purchase If he would agree not to carry the case to the Justice Court. Mr. Stanley admitted asking Mr. Shadlnger If he had any real estate bargains to offer, but said It was after he had advised Mr. .Shadlnger to drop the proceedings. The session was conducted In a room In the TUford building. Over 200 per sons were present, most of whom were young women teacher. A fea ture of the commencement of tho pro ceedings wa that most of the young women preent drew off tho' gloves from their left hands, an array of scintillating solitaire rings gleaming In the electric light. The report card produced by B. S. Pague. attorney for the Shadlngers, showed that on two months In the term ending February 1, Gail Ehadln ger" deportment marks were 96. Prin cipal Stanley's copy, made out by the teacher. Miss Grace Xoyes, showed that the girl's marks were 16. Near-Clash la Averted. Attorney Vreeland asked for the Shadlnger copy. "Why, thla ha been altered." he stormed, "it's as plain as the nose on your face. What Is more, I know who has altered it." "Who?" demanded Mr. Shadlnger. "Why, you, of course," replied the lawyer. To those present It seemed a If hos tilities were averted narrowly. Shadlnger' version of the proposed realty transaction wa that Principal Stanley called him up at the real es tate firm of Stltes & Co. snaainger testified: Property Deal Testified. "Stanley said to me: 'I do a little in buying and selling real estate now and again, 'Mr. Shadlnger, and if you will drop this case before we go Into Jus tice Court tomorrow, I will buy a piece of property I understand you have.' " Shadlnger said that Stanley also told him that Miss Spelch had been worried almost to death over the case and that she ought to have apologized. .-"He said she would have apologized If he had told her to do so, but he thought she had sense enough to do It herself," waa the Shadlnger version of the con versation. Mr. Shadlnger said his wife had told him of the bruises on the child's back, and that no physician had been called. He did not believe there had been any other result than temporary bruises. "I don't think It Is the teacher' fault she did not kill her, he added. Gall Shadlnger declared that she had usually been a good girl In school, and that the piece of hose produced was shorter than that with which the pun ishment had been Inflicted. She said that when she made an explanation to the teacher. Miss Spelch had said: "You need not tell me any lies; go back to your seat." She said there were 19 children pres ent when she wa whipped. - Mother Advisee Obedience. Mr. Shadlnger corroborated the tales told by her husband and the culld and declared she had Informed her chil dren they must obey their teacher. It was when Attorney Pague began to put Miss Spelch through a vigorous course of cross-examination that the temper of the auditor was shown. At torney Vreeland objected on the ground that no court would allow It. There was vigorous applause. "I want to know," demanded a man, "whether those were teachers or not." The applause stopped. Two others re Iterated the demand. "I'm a parent," said a man, "and I applauded. "So am L" added a woman. "I'm no teacher," remarked another. There was more applause when Prin cipal Stanley said that Instruments like the piece ofhose were not often used, but were handy things to have. Miss Spelch declared Gall Shadlnger was mischievous. Insolent. , naughty, noisy, laughed In school, dlsturoed classes- continually In various ways and for perloda lasting from five to 15 minutes. She said she was aware of the provision In the school rules applying to corporal punishment and had no trouble previously. On one pc raslon she had found the child untruth ful and she constantly giggled In the face of her Instructor. She had made no report of the occurrence. She re marked that she hoped the one appli cation of the hose would be aatlsfao tory. "Oall waa of an optimistic temperament?'- queried Mr. Pague. While the teacher pondered the question the audience went Into roars of laughter, in which the committee eventually Joined. GatK. was either very mirthful or very blue. Miss Spelch answered finally. After the cross-examination was well under way. Chairman Sabln remarked that the board was there to get the truth:-that he rather deprecated the line taken and that If the teacher had made a mistake she had better say so. Principal Stanley said Miss Spelch waa an excellent Instructor. He said tha child's deportment figure varied from TO to IS, which was bad. He con tended the average was at least 90 for a child In good standing. - Following the session the members of the committee were s'wamped by a atorm of question by those present. mi SjSOUP COFFEE Makes food Selection -1 . ft it What shall I order today?
