The rule* does not transcend the statutory (Education Law, § 1313, subd. B, ¶ 4) delegation. (Matter of Dr. Bloom Dentist, Inc., v. Cruise, 259 N. Y. 358, 363, 364.) It is sanctioned by the antecedent experience of the authorities having jurisdiction, by the preponderant opinion of the profession, and by the actual conduct of all but a small minority of its members. *194The extreme cases supposed upon the argument are no fair test of the validity of the canon. The presumption is that it will be so applied as to prevent oppression or absurdity. After wide investigation and full consideration, defendants determined that the rule is a reasonable administrative exercise of the police power. Upon the factors appearing in the moving papers, I cannot judicially say they are wrong.
Application denied.
Education Law

5. Employing or making use of advertising solicitors or free publicity press agents.
6.
