Perry Ore and Maro Johnson of Perry as relaters have filed a petition in quo warranto in the circuit court attacking the validity of the organization of the Community High school district at Perry. The defendants are Fred Bergman, G. V. Griggs, John Johnson, G. A. Dixon, and J. E. Seybold the members of the board of education.

The petition alleges that the district is abnormal in size, that parts of it are inaccessible to the school which is maintained at Perry, that pupils are prevented from attending the school by reason of the distance they have to travel and the condition of the roads.
