73. No teacher in any of the public schools of this State shall receive
into such school as a pupil any person who has not been successfully vac-
cinated ; and it shall be the duty of all teachers in the public schools within
ten days after the beginning of the fall term of said schools, and thereafter
as new pupils shall enter such school, to ascertain and enroll on the vaccine
register of said school the names of those pupils who may produce a certifi-
cate of a regular practising physician of the county or city, as the case
may be, certifying that the pupil has been successfully vaccinated, and
also the names of those pupils who have been enrolled at any previous
term in any school of the county or in the city of Baltimore, as the case
may be, as successfully vaccinated pupils, whenever any such pupil shall
present a certificate of such enrollment from the teacher of any such school.
If any person shall apply for admission as a pupil in any of the public
schools of this State who has not been successfully vaccinated, the teacher
shall give the parents or guardian or other person having control of such
pupil an order directed to any physician in the county or city, as the case
may be, and requiring any regular physician to whom it may be presented
to vaccinate such pupil and return a certificate of such vaccination when
successful to the teacher giving such order. The county commissioners of
the several counties and the mayor and city council of Baltimore City, as the
case may be, shall pay or cause to be paid to the physician performing
the service on such order the sum of fifty cents for every such successful
vaccination on the presentation of the order and certification of the teacher
that such vaccination has been performed; provided, that in the counties
or in the city of Baltimore, when vaccine physicians are appointed or con-
tracts made with certain physicians by the proper authorities for the vac-
cination of all children or persons who may apply free of charge to the
person applying, the provisions of this section providing for the payment
of physicians' certified orders of teachers shall not apply. Any teacher
neglecting or refusing to comply with the provisions of this section shall
on conviction thereof before any justice of the peace having jurisdiction
over said offense, be fined ten dollars for each and every offense. And no
public school trustee or commissioner shall grant any permit to any person
who has not been successfully vaccinated to enter as a pupil any public
school under the same penalty.
