Delaware MAY HAVE
ambulance CORPS
H. Paul Cleaver Starts Move
ment TO Establish One
at College
TO BE MAINTAINED
UNTIL WAR ENDS

Special to THE EVENING JOURNAL.
NEWARK, April l9.--H. Paul
Cleaver, Of Wilmington, a junior in
Delaware College has started move
ment for the establishment of an ambu-
lance corps, including a modern and
up-to date automobile ambulance. to be
maintained in Newark during the dura-
ton of the war, which promises to be
successful. This ambulance, if secured.
would be under the auspices of the
Delaware Red Cross, and Mr.. Cleaver
has received much encouragement from
the officials of the Red Cross Society in
his efforts to get the movement started.
Mr.. Cleaver, it is also understood, has
received offers of financial support from
several patr lotic persons in Whining
ton, but still needs more funds before
he can properly carry out his plans.
Dean +. Laurence Smith, Dean Guilt
more and Lieutenant w f. Hoey. mill
tary instructor at the college, are all
much interested in the movement and
are giving the hustling student all the
support they can in his efforts 60 carry
out his plans.
It is the idea of Mr.. Cleaver TO secure
eight volunteers from among the col,
lege student body TO make up the am
bulance corps, and more than that num-
Der have already offered their services.
The usual ambulance corps consists Of
but four persons, but Mr.. Cleaver de-
sires TO have eight in the service, 40
that the ambulance will be ready and
subject TO call at all times during the
war. The men selected will probably
be students attending the college from
Newark and vicinity. so that they can
be on duty all summer after the college
closes. Or. Walter H. Steel and Miss
Beck, of the college Infrmary, have
volunteered their services TO train the
ambulance corps in first aid and caring
for the sick and injured.
Student Cleaver. in discussing his
ideas relative to the proposed amDu
lance. said, If established il would b.
subject to call at any time within q
hundred miles or so Of Newark in cas-,
of such an accident as the one recently
at Eddystone. or to assist the injured Of
sick in any way connected with the gov
eminent service. II would be perma
nently located in Newark during tn,
war, but would be subject TO call by
the government, If needed.
Many persons are becoming interested
in the project, and il Is expected TO b
successfully carried out.
