Investigation brings out the fact that the Krupricka boy had hid the bow and arrow under the culvert and did not bring it to school with him. The primary grade had been dismissed and the boy smuggled his bow and arrow into the basement of the school, under his coat, after the children were supposed to have gone home. No one, teacher or otherwise could possibly have avoided this accident under the circumstances, and The News believes that blame should not be placed at the public school officials door any more than it should haVe been placed elsewhere.
