The item in the August Alumni Magazine that reported Bradley Rodgers had resumed teaching in the Boston schools was not correct. He has taken a position in the Dedham schools, that of administrative principal of the primary, elementary and junior high schools of the Oakdale district of Dedham. In this work he has to see that everything runs smoothly, deal with the teachers, janitor, public and pupils, and discipline cases. Bradley says that "Ye old school master" tries to apply the wisdom he has acquired in forty years of teaching in the effort to have smooth running of the schools and happier relations between pupils and teachers. He has no time to do any teaching.
