RAID ON SCHOOL
TO SEE “EXAM” PAPERS
LONDON. July 6. Two 15-year-old boys, one of whom was sitting for his matriculation examination, were charged at East London Juvenile Court yesterday with being found in a school for an unlawful purpose.
One boy, who had been a prefect and house captain, left the school last May. The other admitted he was breaking in to see some examination papers in advance.
“You wore doing a mean trick by these means,” said Mr. B. L. Q. Henl'iques, the chairman. “You were living not only to be better than yourself but boiler than your classmates.” The boys were remanded.
