WANTS SCHOOL
OPENING DELAYED

Efforts to have this seasons open
ing of the schools of Hawaii postponed
from September II to October will
be made by Food Administrator j. f.
Child, following a long conference
which that official had today with
Charles A. Rice, deputy food com.
missioner for Kauai. Mr.. Child will
reopen the subject at a meeting of the
Territorial Food Commission on We'd
nesday and endeavor to secure from
that body a plea to Governor Nc.
Carthy, who has full power to act in
the matter.
According to Mr.. Rice, there is
every reason in the world why the
postponment should be ordered and
few if any arguments against it. Up
wards of 5000 children, he estimates,
VINO are now doing splendid work on
the plantations OF the various islands
Will he Withdrawn just when they are
greatly needed to take the places OF
those workers who have been called
INTO military srvice.
If these children are left to work in
the 1ieids until the nrst or October"
says Mr.. Rice, they can clean up the
rest of the planting and he directly re-
sponsible for the production of up
wards of $1,000 tons more sugar than
can be started if they are taken away
and placed in the schools.
Owing to the scarcity of teachers,
many of whom | understand to be de.
tanned on the mainland owing to the
lack of passenger accommodations on
island-bound ships, the instruction to
be given to the children during the
first two weeks will be practically nil,
each class being too large to properly
handle.
BY October l most of the teachers
will have arrived in the islands and
school can then be started in some
thing resembling normal way. Then
by either cutting the Christmas holi-
days a week and teaching five Satur-
days, or by teaching on ten Saturdays
conveniently scattered through the
school year, the time which the child
rem will lose now can be easily made
up.
THE children are all eager to finish
up the planting of the cane and earn
the bonuses which the plantations pay
TO those who work the full twenty days
OF each month. They seem perfectly
willing to make up the lost time by at.
tending school on Saturdays later in
the yer when the cane is all planted
and ever tning Is in good shape"
Asked as TO the number OF children
working on Kauai, Mr.. Rice estimated
that there were some 1900 boys and
girls now employed and that upwards
of 5000 were working on all of the is.
lands. He stated that the badges of the
Boys Working Reserve were as highly
priced over on this island as was the
CroiX de Guerre in France and that
the children all seemed to realize that
they were doing their bit in the war
by helping plant the crops with which
the war is to be won
Mr.. Rice hoped to see Governor Nc.
Carthy on this matter, but is compel.
ed to leave Tor home before the chief
executive returns from his trip to Ka.
noolawe. Mr.. Child, therefore, has un.
'dertaken to present the matter both to
the food commission and to the COVER
nor upon the latter's return.

The opening of the college year is

Doctor Raymond has every claim to

Charlton, N. Y, November 23, 1866, but
his father moved to Saratoga when his
SOM was five years old, and it was
there he received his education. He
was graduated from the Rush Medical
College in 1898, and was at once ap.

of health in 1898, and later president
of the loan fund commission. On
Maui he is owner of the Raymond

MIR. Eversman outlined in detail, ac-
cording to letters introduced, his sew

mission showed that the packers did
not join in hiring Eversman, but that
he was employed in the capacity sug-
gested to him by Wilson and COM
pany at much smaller remuneration
than suggested by him in his negotia
tions with the five packing houses.

BOTHNER BREAKS LEG.
Wrestling Champion Sustains Acci-

Atlantic City, N. J.. March c0.-- George Bothncr, New Works s cham pion wrestler and referee, will be confined to the City hospital here for several weeks as the result of a double fracture of his left leg, sus- tained during a bout here Monday night with Frank Rice of Boston. An H-ray of his injuries taken today by Dr. Theodore Senseman showed the breaks to be more serious than was first supposed.
 Before entering the ring Bothner had told several friends that it would be the last time he would defend the title. He was to have refereed the Zbyszko Lewis match in New York last night.

I., who suffered concussion of tho brain after being thrown over the ropes by Mike Yokel of Salt Lake City, middleweight champion, during bout that followed Bothner's re- covered sufficiently over night to per init his removal to his home George Fisher of New York, the referee and Yokel, who had been held by the police pending the outcome of his !n- juries, were released.
