He also accused C. T. Rice, principal, of trying to “get” him. | Damon resigned following an inci- | dent in which he kissed Miss Mar- garette Pratt, a senior at the school. “I tendered my resignation to save any one embarrassment,” Mr, Damon said. “There was nothing secret or It was the day of the class color demon- stration and all were jubilant. One of a crowd of girls snatched my pencil out of my pocket and another| my handkerchief. | “I did not care to be peevish, 1! grabbed one of the girls and jokingly | asked the other girls what I should | do with her. They replied, ‘kiss her. I jokingly kissed her on the cheek. | “It was in broad daylight and done in a spirit of hilarity. “When I learned that the principal |, was endeavoring to make the incident | a serious matter, rather than reflect on any one I agreed to resign.” Intimation that Miss Pratt may sit as a judge in the case came today, following the informal hearing before | the Board of Education of the Damon® resignation and its withdrawal. | “I believe Miss Pratt should be the | judge,” one member of the board said, “She is the recipient of the | kiss and should be given the power to deal out punishment if she so de-| sires.

His father, he said, returned from a vacation at Palm Beach on Bunday and announced his intention of being present at the orchestra’s debut at the Knickerbocker @rill last night, but the son said it was evident that there was no change in a previously exe d opposition of his father to his arance as a saxophonist with it The Roger Wolfe orchestra the malden name of the young musician's mother was Wolfe—has occupied pubs lie attention ever since the announce- ment several weeks ago that it was being offered to the vaudeville book- ing offices for & tour of the city's vaudeville houses. There were ru- mors at the time that Mr. Kahn op- posed his son's venture, but these died | down when announcement was made that the young man had played in the orchestra at a private social func- tion at which Mrs, Kahn was a guest The proceedings last night were further complicated by the appear- ance of a secretary of a musicians’ union, who sald he had come to op- pose young Kahn's playing, on the ground that he was not a union mem- ber. Roger Wolfe Kahn met this argument by making an appointment for this afternoon, at which time, he #aid, he would be preparcd to make the necessary application for member- ship. He said, however, that he saw little chance of overcoming his father’s opposition to his appearance, and he indicated that he would not play publicly in the band without his fat approval, The orchestra rehearsing for some weeks in the baliroom of the Kahn home, at 1100 ¥Fifth avenue TELLS OF KILLINGS Chicago Suspect Says Dufly Shot Wis ed youngest debut of son has heen Wife and in Turn Was Shot by Men He Was Going 1o “Show Up.” zo, Web, Mystery sore | ing the deaths of John Duffy, body was found near Argo, 1L, , 12 hours before the hody 3 faybelle Exley Duffy, found their Chicago apart- s partly dispelled following a satement by William Engelke, that was present when Duffy kitled his furing a quarrel, and that Dully ter was killed by men threaten- pose for refusing 1o help his wife's body.
