Nashville, Tenn., Nov. 27—The Tennessee Academy of Science unanimously passed a resolution asking the legislature at its next session to repeal the evolution law, because “it marks a backward step in our educational program.”
The action was taken late today at the annual meeting of the Academy held at Vanderbilt. In a brief discussion of the resolution, A.F. Canier of Nashville, newly elected president, deplored the fact that state text book commission had obtained evolutionary teaching deleted from the state text books.
