J.— The Teaneck Story seemed to have calmed last week following the announcement that the new manager of the Teaneck will be Mrs. James T. Corneille, mother of six children. The youngsters were also due to hold an election to choose a committee to help improve the man¬ ners of teen-agers. Before all this happened, however, A1 Harris, former manager, had barred teen-agers from the house because three fires had been started, Skouras Theatres decided to allow teen-agers to attend, Harris resigned, and a spe¬ cial meeting of children was held in the high school auditorium.
