Feels ignorant of internal politics; inclined to accept Miss Metcalfe's and Miss Shirreff's proposal to support Miss Lumsden. Accepts main reason for having Miss Lumsden on committee is to represent views of the students; but allowing one tutor onto committee opens the way to overwhelming number of teachers on the governing body. Proper for the mistress (Miss Davies) to represent student views. Waiting for discussion before making decision.
