Macon Institution
Macon. Ga.. Sept. 22.—Mayling
Soong a young Chinese g::i has been
barred from the Gresham high school
in Macon a county institution because
she is not a Caucasian and not a citi-
zen of this country. She is a niece of
Bing Chun Wan. who is connected with
the Chinese embassy at Washington
Her sister graduated last June at Wes-
leyan college which is located in Ma-
con and which is a famous Methodist
institution.
Aliss Soong came to Macon to enter
Wesleyan but was found deficient in
some of her studies and it was suggest-
ed that she enter the Gresham high
school to prepare for the next term
nt Wesleyan.
When application was made for her
admission. Superintendent C. B. Chap-
man called a meeting of the board of
education to decide the question.
The law creating the Bibb county
board of education requires that all
students of the Gresham high school
must be of the Caucasian race and for
that reason Miss Soong was denied ad
mittance.
"STAR”CAUSES WONDER.
Blood Red Constellation in West May
Have Been Balloon or an Airship.
Out in the west last night blazing
as brightly as Jupiter appeared a
blood-red star. It glowed with bale-
ful glare showing at an altitude of
about 37 degrees. No star like it has
probably ever appeared before and lit-
erally thousands gazed at it wonder-
ing what it portended. Some claimed
it was the harbinger of the end of the
world.
For as long as 15 minutes the blood-
red star remained poised. Then as sud-
denly. it seemed to dip gradually to
glow less and less brilliantly and final-
ly to disappear. Some said it was a
smr.ll balloon others maintained it was
an airship taking a night reconnoitre
over San Antonio. AU any rate the
mvsterious star caused many to feel ap-
prehension. Its sudden appearance and
equally sudden disappearance left the
impression that it was something un-
canny' and not a toy balloon sent up
by irresponsible boys.
