18 TTTE MORNING OREOOyiAN1. FRIDAY. FEBRUATIT i2. 1013. . . ALDERMAN IS LIKELY TO RE Indications Point to Support of Three Members for City School Superintendent. TWO VOTES FELT ASSURED Mr. Mnnly Thought to Favor Jtetcn tion or Present Officer and This Would Give Majority Klec tion Date Indefinite. Although those who are in a posi tion to -discuss the subject with au thority will not talk, it was rumored persistently yesterday that L. R. Alder man will have a majority of the Board of Koucation supporting him for re election as Superintendent of Portland's public schools. Up to yesterday his election to another term had been in doubt, as it was known that he had opposition within the Board. If reports current yesterday are true, as seems iwobable. it means that M. G. Munlv has decided to cast his vote for Mr. Alderman. Mr. Munly refused to bt quoted, but admitted that he had de cided how he would vote. With Mr. Munly's vote Mr. Alderman will have the support of a majority of the Iii rectors. O. M. Plummer and J. V. Beach are known to favor his reten tion at the head of the schools. Op posed to him is Dr. K. A. Sommcr, while 3r. Alan Welch Smith has also been reported to be against t.'ie present ad ministration. Jlopkin Jenkins, prin cipal of Jefferson High School, had been brought out as the opposition can didate for the Superintendency. Campaign Ikmuc Forcnern. rr. Sommcr's term as Director ex pires next June and his position as op posing Superintendent Aldermar i likely, it is said, to prove an issue in the campaign, with a pro-Alderman candidate in the field against him. At present it seems likely that the elec tion of a Director will be fought out on this issue. Even if Mr. Alderman should be re-elected before June un doubtedly there will be an effort to elect a successor to Pr. Sommer who will be in sympathy with the policies of the Superintendent. The election of the City Superintend ent comes a t no fixed date. It may take place in April. May or June and. together with all administrative of ficers of the school system, the suc cessor to the present Superintendent will take office on July 1. Unlike those in' the city school administration under the civil service, a notice of two and one-half months is not required when changes are made in administrative of fices. Iirec4er Attitudes Surm lr. While the attitude of the Directors is pretty well known, they are non-committal when discussing the approach ing election of a Superintendent. Dr. Summer will not admit that he is pledged to ote for Mr. Jenkins and other members of the board inter viewed yesterday were evasive. "It is not time to elect any one for the position of Superintendent yet." id J. V. Beach, a Director, "and I do not care to go into a discussion of the Mibjcct as to what action I may take when the lime comes." "It is not up to me yet to act in the matter." said Dr. Smith, "and I must dM-line to tnake any statement in re prurd to it." "I have no thins: whatever to say in regard to th; election of School Su perintendent," said Mr. Munly. "I am n-t a candidate for the posi tion and am not considering the mat ter at all," said Mr. Jenkins. A L I KR M AX II AS C 1 1 A M PI O X Pliiniiiicr S;ij He Will Support Su perintendent in Re-election. ST AT K CAPITOL. Salem, Or.. Feb. 11. . (Special.) "I expect to support Su perintendent Alderman for re-.eleetion and expect him to be re-elected within it few weeks." said O. M. Plummer. a member of the Tort land School Board, who was hf-re today, after reading in The Oregoman that Mr. Alderman may liHvt- opposition to retain his present office. "1 don't believe that Professor Jen Xins is a candidate for the place." con tinued Mr. Plummer. "Thero never has Wen a bit of doubt in my mind about Mr. Alderman's re-election. Ho ought to be kept in the office, as he has done a wonderful service for the 1 "ortland schools. He is an educator of National reputation and has held high positions in the Nat ional Educational Associa t ion. I hope those members of the board who now appear to be opposed t- him. upon more ma lure considera tion will realize the Mdvnittage and im portance of rtaininc him" ORCHESTRA AICTnEEDED w. r. unnvi; jts men rom'i.ANO I'Mlane Muale Off?
