BLINDED, TO GIVE SKIN
TO SAVE HIS FIANCEE
Schecher, Champion Bowler, and
Girl Hurt in New Haven Wreck.

Bridgeport Conn. Feb. 23.-One Of
the tragedies Of the Milford wreck
did not become known until to-day
when Charles Schecher. lying but a
few feet away from a room in which
his injured sweetheart is being
treated. learned that he probably
would be permanently blinded through
his injuries.
Schecher is an athlete. member Of
the worlds championship bowling
team. Such an injury would blight
his career. But his first query, on
learning the extent of his own mis-
fortune, concerned the condition of his
fiancee, Miss Minnie Schwarts, whose
scalp was so severely burned that IT
was feared she might not recover.
'Skin will have TO be grated upon
her scalp and it must be done soon,'
said the physician. 1--WE must find
some healthy person to provide the
skin"
"Why. couldn't p began Schecher
The physician granted the request.
The result Of the arrangements is that
several inches of skin from Schecher's
right leg will be removed this morning
to patch up the wounds upon the head
Of his sweetheart.
Schecher and Miss Schwarts, who
were en- route 10 New York for hoi-
day when the accident occurred, were
to have been married in the fall.
Schecher was TO have competed at the
national bowling tournament at Toledo
this spring. He will be unable TO do
so, however. and probably never will
resume his place upon the crack New
Haven team, whose high record he did
so much TO make.

SUNDAY SCHOOL HEAD
A POISON PEN PRISONER
Charged with Debating Imprint
able Letters to Young Girl.

A scandal that has been whispered
over back gates at Little Neck, y. l.,
for weeks took surprising turn yes
terday with the arrest of Miss Mary VI.
Everson, "A Sunday school teacher in the
Dutch Reformed Church OF Manhasset.
Miss Everson. who is fifty years old.
drew the present storm down upon her
head by appearing in the Flushing
police court yesterday TO prosecute Mrs.
Gabrielle Crovette, who she charged
with sending her slanderous notes. To
substantate her charge, Miss Everson
offered twenty-five letters of an un-
printable nature.
When Magistrate Miller questioned
Mrs. Crovette he became convinced
that she was not guilty. Attention
was called TO the fact that the letters
were written in childish scrawl and
that many of the words were mis-
spelled. 1t was suggested that Alvena
Wolfe, fifteen years old. be qucs-
toned, because of her intimacy with
Miss Everson.
The child had been examined but a
few minutes when she broke down and
admitted that she had written them at
Miss Everson's dictation. Magistrate
Miller Immediately issued the warrant
for the Sunday school teachers arrest
on a charge Of endangering the child's
morals. Miss Everson was paroled in
custody of her lawyer pending an ex-
animation by psychopathic expert.

Superintendent Admits Lack of
Training for Children.

Methods of educating the child in
mates of the German Odd Fellows
Home at Yonkers caused that institu-
ton yesterday again to come under the
scrutiny of Commissioner Charles II.
Strong, representing the state in the

superintendent of the home, testified
that his expert knowledge of child
rearing had been CLEANED from books
he began reading after he had been
appointed to his place. But he could
not remember the names OF any of the
books.
He said only eleven or fourteen boys
out of forty were receiving vocational
training The city. he admitted. was
paying an additional fee on the theory
that all the boys over twelve years
should get such training. He said that
while he didn't like corporal punish
ment he made a practice of slapping
the faces of children for serious in
fractions Of rules.
The surprise OF the afternoon was
sprung by Alvin Menge, a caretaker,
who was instructor TO the 40 children
at the home last winter. He testified
in such broken English that it was al
most impossible 10 understand him,
while the inspectors who visited the
place said they had been compelled TO
call an interpreter in dealing with him.
The inspectors reported that the period
spent By the children under his in
struction was a dead loss 10 them.
