INDIANA TOWN SPLIT ON KNICKER PROBLEM Mothers’ Clubs Hold Rule Against Girls' Boyish Clothes Is Ridiculous. By the Assoclated Press. JEFFERSONVILLE, Ind., October 9. township school principal’s con- te n that knickers and knowledge won't mix is keeping a 9-year-old girl from classes and has become a moot subject for debate in southern In- diana. John Thornberg, Charlestown town- ship principal, doesn’t believe knickers for girls are “proper.” He asked the trusteés to legislate against them. They did. Two weeks ago Virginia Allen was sent home from the school where Thornberg presides because she wore knickers. Twice each day since then she has appeared at the classroom only to be told she was welcome, but only in skirts. Vir- ginia's mother still in unconvinced that knickers are not proper. Mothers clubs label the rule “ridic- ulous.” George H. Voigt, city at- ald knickers are as amenable stee regulation as playgrounds and classrooms. Thornberg is proponent of uniforms for school children, but protesting patrons said many parents could not afford uniforms. TWO SHOT OVER RAID. Officer Wounds Man After He Is Hurt at Danville, Va.
