Etna Explosives Co.
Settlement Approved
Special Committee Tells Court
Creditors Have Been
Paid i'm Full

Judge Julius M. Mayer, in the Fed
eral District Court, yesterday signed
an order approving the plan for read
justment of the affairs of the Aetna
Eplosives Company, Inc, which is still
in the hands of Ex-Governor Benjamin
B. Odell and ex-Judge George C. Holt
as receivers.
The special committee, headed by
Victor Royal, which prepared the plan
said creditors had been paid in full and
suggested that present bondholders can
exchange their bonds for IS per cent
in cash or for full value in per cent
new mortgage bonds maturing in
twelve years. If they prefer they may
retain the present bonds, which mature
in 1945.
Each share of preferred stock is ex-
changable for $2O.75 cash and $75 in
new mortgage bonds. Common stock
holders retain their-.resent holdings
The report suggests if bondholders
elect to take the IS per cent Of their
holdings in cash, bonds offered to the
preferred stockholders will be practi-
cally first mortgage bonds. Sinking
fund clauses will retire substantial
part of the new bonds each year.
1t is understood that Mr.. Odell is to
be president of the reorganized cor
poration and the receivers will be
members of the board of directors.

West Side ssY'' Girls
Win Field Day Games

Rain, which had postponed the an
short the outdoor sports at Van Cort-
landt Park yesterday afternoon. AS
result the girls Of the Central and
Bronx branches are still arguing the
baseball championship, the score being
tie when rain stopped play There
was not even the satisfaction of re-
deeming rain checks, as players and
spectators alike scampcred for cover
But the field events proper were run
off, much to the delight of the West
Side branch, which won the day. Even
the nine girls who ran the relay and
won the honors for West Side expended
no more effort than their lusty rooters.
The relay gained five points for the
West Side girls. 1t looked for a while
as if the Bronx girls would win
the flag relay until one of their
last runners let the flag fall. The
West Side girls also won the circle
pass relay and five more points. Sec
ond place in the basketball throw gave
West Side another point, making the
total II, enough to win the day. Cen
tra scored a total of 7, Bronx and
Harlem 3. Central won the basketball
throw when one Of it's team tossed the
ball for new record in the Y. W. C. A.
games.
These girls made up the winning
West Side team: Mary Toy, A. Wright,
E. Vaupel, P. Berthold, l. Henderson,
c. Schmitt, G. Reinhard, G. Schimpf,
M. Strehlin, W. Wendland, c. B. Plumb,
M. Webster, M. Smith.
