Troops Entertained
And Fed by Hotels,

Men of the 9th Division
Given Leave of Absence
Until This Morning to Go
Anywhere They Please

New York turned the tables on the
Z'th Division last night.
Earlier in the day the city capitu.
lated without a struggle to the men of
the famous division. Last night, how
ever, was another story.
When the troops reached the ar
morles named in orders of the day as
thelr obJectives the division was given
leave to do as it pleased, providing the
men reported back at 6 o'clock this
morning.
In the early part Of the evening the
men were relieved of the necessity of
choosing their entertainment by the
Mayors Committee of Welcome and
various local organizations.

Unprecedented Congestion on All
Traction Lines Reaching Manhattan

Congestion unprecedented in the an.
hals OF transportation in this city pre-
ceded and followed yesterdays parade
For the most part, this was due to the
faulty running schedules of the transit
llnes-no cognizance was taken in some
cases of the fact that there would be
holiday crowd to handle.
While the transit difficulties arisino
before the pageant began we're of large
proportions, they could not compare
with what followed the end of the na.
rade.
In the early morning, people from all
poroughs, towns, villages and cities
nearby New York, poured gradually
into the city. From the Bronx alone. it
was estimated 100000 made their wav
to Manhattan. Coming into Manhattan
by degrees, they were punched later
IN the day and all wanted to return
home at once
Inc afternoon rush on all lines be-
gan at about two o'clock. From then
until three thirty, the congestion was
especially severe. By five it slackened
considerably, only to start again with
renewed vigor. This was the condi-
tlon until almost midnight.
Rush for the Line Home
No sooner had the tramp of feet
died out to an echo than the crowds
Inning the curbs bolted for side streets
IN an attempt to reach the nearest
ferry, subway or elevated line. Had
terborough officials provided extra
facilities to handle the crowd much
confusion and congestion might hava
been avoided.

The crowd at Forty-third Streo+,
impatient and restless, began to nush
Women and children in the front linz
were pushed from the sidewalk into
the roadway. Several women and
youngsters were knocked down. To
add to the excitement the store win

no one was hurt.

NOT satisfied with his sign of failure
on their part, the officials announced
that between 12 and | and and GAO
clock the number of trains was some-
what reduced.

line, especially, the jams were so nu-
merous that many women tainted while
trying to force an entrance to the sta

dltlon existed at the elevated stations
On the other hand, New Jersey peo-
pie VINO made use of the Hudson tubes

exodus from the city via that route.
The Pennsylvania Railroad put extra
coaches in service to handle the out
ot-town crowds. In addition, several
special trains were put on.
B. r. T. Follows Suit
Brooklyn Rapid Transit officials fol-
lowed closely in the steps of the Inter
boro. The usual business day schedule
was put into force; no extra trains or
cars We're run. The home-going crowds
taxed the elevated and surface lines
to capacity at Brooklyn Bridge, but the
transit officials insisted that there was
not enough of crowd to warrant ex-
ira facilities.
Much of the transit crush could
have been avoided, it was said last
night, IT the police had been instructed
TO allow the people to drift homeward
at Will, instead of compelling them to
walk around in circles" Comnlaint
was also made that the police exer-
clsed no vigilance on the elevated Sta
tons. 1t was miracle, some said.

More Tickets Than Seats

1t developed yesterday when several
persons holding tickets for seats in
grand stand sections numbered 800. 3si
and 1872 discovered there were no such
sections; that the Mayors committee
had issued more tickets than they had
seats.
The last section, at 10th Street and
Fifth Avenue, was numbered 389. Some
of the early morning arrivals began
looking for their seats in the 390s,
Unsuccessful, they appealed to the po-
lice, who managed to find a place for
some of them.
One of the unlucky ones was George
Thise, of 27 Lawrence Street, who got
to 10th Street before Z o'clock. He
had to stand.

Dead, Scores
Injured Along
Fifth Avenue
Police Captain Succumbs to
Heart Failure; Man Falls
Through Skylight; Wom-

Two lost their lives, scores were IN
tions in the crush to see the 9th Di-
vision parade
Police Captain John Barnes, of ia
maica, succumbed while regulating
traffic at Fifth Avenue and Fifty
seventh Street. Captain Barnes had
charge of the Richmond Hill precinct
He was experimenting the work Of his
men when heart attack caused his re-
moval to the Roosevelt Hospital. He
died shortly after his arrival there.
Cornelius Sapperstein, of 1853 West
Ninety-sixth Street, who was watching
the parade from the roof of 435 Fifth
Avenue, fell through Il skylight to the
basement. He died before a physician
arrived.
More than dozen hospitals had sur
geons and ambuiances stationed at
points along the line of march, and all
were busy administering to women and
children prostrated in the mass of peo-
pie that defied the efforts of the police
to keep them within fixed boundaries.
Many children were rescued by special
patrolmen and taken to the police sta
tions.
The weight of spectators clinging to
fire escapes and cornices that broke
under the strain caused many injuries.
At 1857 Fifth Avenue an iron grating
gave way and plunged several persons
TO the pavement Frightened horses
stampeding into the crowds caused in-i
juries to spectators and soldiers.
Quick work by the police saved many
more from being trampled by the
crowds.
During the march q few soldiers.
chiefly among those who had been
wounded, were compelled to drop out
and accept stimulants from physicians.
Many persons were cut by flying glass
from skylights. One man fell from q
tree on the edge of Central Park.
The police were busy late last night
answering calls from points along Fifth
Avenue and Broadway where fimsy
soap box grandstands had broken, caus-
ing injury to those on them. Many se-
we're injuries were reported. Most of
the minor injuries were cuts and !
bruises. Many of the accidents were
due to traffic collisions.

journalism in
School,
By DR.. VIM. A. McKeever,
Professor I'm the University Of
'>sn-as and an Authority
OF rhlld Training.

~ Kansas Professor NJ. L. Smith,
- tho Enporia State Normal,
- prcf-oting one of the most
significant ideas as to Juvenile
Journalism ever tried out In Amer
lea. u is this: On account Of the
high price Of print paper and other
excessive costs the little village
newspaper, once SO fourishing, is
going out OF business. Professor
Smiths scheme is to have the local
high school get into the place and
serve the community with it's own
paper.
Many high schools are already
publishing a small sheet containing
school news and gossip, but few IL
any are issuing a medium Of gem
eral news as here proposed. The
plan proposed is to have the board
OF education furnish all equipment,
Just as is now done for the manual
training. and to employ q teacher
Of English with sufficient journal
istic ability to manage the news
sheet, and to employ a director of
all industrial work who can direct
the simple press and equipment.
But the significance Of this high
school country newspaper idea lies
In the large scope OF practical
training which II opens for young
men and women. The mind OF the
high school youth is at its height
q, TO keen interest and effort, and
as TO appropriate literary style and
expression Not only Is the high
school student the most original
humortst of all the ages, but he
., likewise An eager critic OF
thought and comment in locally
produced literature. Also. here is
the place to begin recruiting all
the varieties OF talent later to be
called to serve in the big city
newspaper business.
Naturally. this new venture in
high school journalism is to fall
into several departments OF effort
and train'-S and the directing
teacher viii Use IL to discover tall
f'lA IN ~
vertisements and subscriptions, edi-
toriel writing. mechanical make
up, feature stories, illustrating and
cartooning, humorous features, and
tho like Thus a wide variety of
ability will be awakened and stim-
ulated, while the once dull and un-
Interesting department OF English
will be made all aQuiver with new
life Not only a small normal per-
ccntaEe of professional journalists
should emerge here, but every stu
dent may have a chance to become
what he, in fact, ought to be.
something of an amateur journalist.
But perhaps the greatest gain OF
all TO come from a well-manAged
high-school course in local journal
ism is the fact of an unprecedented
opportunity to connect the school
with the community. to make each
acquainted with the conditions and
needs of the other and to bind all
together on a program OF improve
-ents and progress Also the seed
testing. soil analysis. social sur
veys and civic-helping plans Of the
other departments OF the school can
enjoy, through this neyspaper
scheme. a most valuable medium Of
} Ihlicity.
Let US all hail this new ideal for
th~ country high school with de-
AShtful anticipatlons: and let u.
