COMPULSORY. PHYSICAL
TRAINING AT DELAWARE
President Hullihen Favors New
Plan and Believes it to be
Valuable.

Special Correspondence OF Every Evening
Newark, Feb 2l.-Compulsory physical
training for all students OF Delaware
College is advocated by DR., Walter Hull
hen. president of the institution. He mado
the suggestion In n report submitted to
the Board of Trustees at their meeting
Saturday The plan was approved In
principle by the trustees and DR.. Hullihen
authorized to prepare n detail led program
whereby every student would get some
form Of physical training and submit it
to the board at the June meeting.
The present Indications are that the
plan will be put into effect at the beginning
of the next college year in September and
that it will prove greatly beneficial to the
large majority of the student body who
now get no opportunity for supervised
athletic exercises.
II is DIR Hullihen idea that the student
should be allowed to make his own selec-
tion as 10 the kind of physical exercise he
desires To take If that plan is possible
He also believes that il will result in
developing q great deal Of material for
the various varsity teams who under the
present system never get an opportunity
credits will be allowed for this week
DR. Hulhhen announced that he had
received from n private source special
donation for the promotion Of publicity.
1t is planned TO in the near future invite

SHAD MAY BECOME
EXTINCT UNLESS
RIVER IS PURIFIED
Pollution Serves to Kill Young
Fish by Depriving Them
of Food
PRESSING NEED OF RELIEF

spscial Correspondence OF Every Evening.
nelavare City Feb. PA re-
cont announcement by the Bureau
~ Fisheries. Washington, ID. C.,
that pollution is responsible for the de-
cline I'm the catch of shad in Delaware
river and bay. is of much interest.
according 10 the government report the
lollution destroys the feed of the young
fish along the surface of the water.
The result is that in the spawning sea
son. when the young fish start towards
the sea. they never reach il. as they
cannot ind sufficient to keep them
alive The young shad always
swim near the surface of the water.
WHORE under normal conditions, their
food is available.
This announcement by the govern
mcnt experts sets at rest another prob
lem which has given shad fishermen
much concern That was that most or
the fish that were caught were unusu-
ally large. while very few of the small
,r fish were landed. This condition
lcars out the view of the government
experts. proving there are very little
r~h that can be caught, due 10 their
determination while young. The older
FISH are the larger ones that are being
landed
I'nless steps are taken to Immediately
remedy the pollution Of the river, shad
fishermen claim that another year. or
possibly two, shad viii be thing of
thr past. They claim that. due TO
Is4Iuton. the young fish have no chance
to i've, as their food has been destroyed
ard they cannot exist until they reach
IN, capcs. after which they would be
able to obtain their food.
The larger fish are the only shad
left and another year or two will mark
their disappearance. leaving the river
without any breeding fish. This con-
diiton. If continued, will result in the
complete determination Of the shad
from the Delaware river and bay. Fish
Ing interests promise TO take immediate
action to break UP the pollution, so

MINERS
MUST co TO WORK
Told by International Representative
That Strike Benefits Will
Close in April

Birmingham, Ala, March Co.
Union coal miners we're warned in an
official statement issued today by
Van L. Bitter, international represen-
tative that they must Immediately
secure work in order to take care OF
themselves and their families as the
union benefits will cease after the
week ending April 9.
Mr.. Bittner's statement to the mi
ners follows:
call men shall Immediately apply
for work and get work in and around
the mines, as it will be impossible
for the organization to continue to
feed you after the week ending April
9, 1921. This is the action of the
international executive board and is
final. Thousands of miners through
out the country are idle and will re-
ceive no relief whatsoever from the
organization. In all other strikes
reliefs has been paid for only one
week after the strike has been call
ed off. but in Alabama you will re-
ceive relief for three weeks after
the governors decision has been rem
dered and seven weeks after the
strike has been called off, therefore
we again say that it is the definite
policy of the organization that all
men will have to work in order that
they will be able to take care of
and their families after
April 9, 1921.

PIGEON BRINGS FIRST
NEWS OF FIVE
MISSING AERONAUTS

Pensacola, Fla. March 26.-Naval
authorities yesterday expressed the
belief that the only hope for the
safety of Chief Quartermaster G. R.
Wilkerson and four student pilots,
missing from the naval air station
here since they took the air in
free balloon Tuesday night is that
some vessel in the Gulf of Mexico
may have rescued them.
The search for the missing balloon
which began yesterday after the ar
rival of carrier pigeon with mes
sage stating that the ballon was
off St. Andrews Bay, Fla, drifting
to sea, and only about 100 feet above
the water was continued today by
a dozen boats and sub-chaser. Other
craft along the coast also were put
ting to sea in the hope that some
trace of the bag or its occupants
might be discovered.
Commander Robert W. Cabaniss,
one of the oldest fiers in tn enaval
service, took personal charge of the
search today and ordered the coast
inland territory thoroughly combed.
