HULLIHEN FOR LEGION HEAD
Is Being Strongly Urged by Different
Posts of the State

DIR. Walter Hullihen, president of
the University of Delaware will be
strongly supported for State Com
mander of the American Legion, at the
State convention to be held in Mil
ford tomorrow. DR.. Hullihen's candi-
dacy was endorsed by unanimous vote
of Lawrence Roberts Post, No. 21,
American Legion of Wilmington at it's
meeting in the American Red Cross
headquarters at Wilmington. The
post instructed its delegates to sup
port DR.. Hullihen at the convention.
Other posts whose delegates will most
likely support the university president
are the George Fisher Post and Nor
man Scott Posts of Wilmington and
Newark Post. 1t is also likely that
the Fox Post of Dover will support DIR.
Hullihen. DIR. Hullihen served in the
army for two years. He entered the
officers training camp at Fort Ogle-
thorpe, Georgia, in the spring of 1917,
and was commissioned a captain in
November. He was then transferred
" camp JdChSOIly NOluuDld, .. O.J DIS
an instructor where he remained until
April 1918, when he was sent to Camp
Gordon, having charge of the training
of replacement troops. Later Dr.
Hullihen was transferred to Camp
Perry, Ohio, where he took the small
arms firing course. At the conclusion
of this course he was sent to Camp
Logan, Houston, Texas, and assigned
to the staff of General Guy Henry
commanding the Fifteenth division a:
staff assistant of G 8, in charge of op
erations and training. Shortly aftel
this time the armistice was signed. DR.
Hullihen was discharged in March
1919.

CORONER JURY EXHONERATES
MATE" COOPER NEAR KENTON
FIND NO EVIDENCE PUNCHES
NEGRO GOT CAUSED DEATH
Samuel Scott, a Negro Tenant on
COOper's Farm Was in Fact a Vic
tim of Pulminary Trouble

Kenton, Sept. 2O.-Because of a
suspicion that the death of Samuel
Scott, alias Pete Carter, negro, living
at Blanco, west Of Kenton, who died
Saturday, September 10th, might have
been caused by being struck by Ig-
natius Cooper several days prior to
his death. Coroner Needles summon
ed jury last week at the instance of
the Attorney-Genera's office to in
quire into the facts of the case. Scott,
it is said, had been working on Coop
er's farm and due to some back talk
and impudence he gave Cooper, when
ne went after his clothes, Cooper
gave the negro a punching. The
evidence produced at the inquest, how
ever, while showing Cooper did strike
Scott twice, once on the face and the
second blow on the arm, that neither
would have caused the death of the
negro, which was due to pulmonary
hemorrhage. DR.. Smith, a physician
of Kenton, testified that he treated
Scott for pulmonary trouble as far
back as December, 1920, and that in
his Judgment Scott's death was not
due to the blows delivered by Cooper.
DR.. Cecil de ]. Harbordt, of Dover, al
so testified that it was improbable
that the blow could have caused the
death of the man. Evidence also
showed that Scott worked the day af-
ter he was hit, without any complaint
of injury. His face or arm showed nc
signs of a blow. The affair caused
much concern all thru Kenton Hun.
dred where "Nate" Cooper is known
and highly respected. Cooper is ;
son of the late DIR. w. H. Cooper {
prominent practitioner of Kenton.

DELAWARE To TRAIN TEACHERS
Prof. w. A. Wilkinson Arranges Series
of Courses at University For This
Year-Graduates Disappointed

With the opening of the University
of Delaware this week an attempt will
be made to acquaint students more
fully than heretofore with the oppor-
tunity being offered for the prepara-
tion of high school teachers. The
marked increase in teachers salaries
during the last two or three years to-
gether with the lessened opportunity
for lucrative employment in other
fields has tended to attract college
graduates in greater numbers to the
teaching profession. 1t is a matter of
regret, however, that quite a number
of this years graduates of the mems
college of the University of Delaware
who sought teaching positions were
barred from appointment because they
had not had the necessary profession
al training. Professor r. w. Helm,
State director of vocational education
reports that eight of this years grad
yates in agriculture became eager to
secure employment as teachers of ag-
riculture but could not be certifcated
because they had failed to take the
specific courses required by law for
teaching, in federally aided agricul-
tural departments and high schools.
Dean E. Laurence Smith reports a
number of similar instances among
arts and science graduates. The point
is that high school teaching is now
ra0a rdad &c a nrOfacci0,, opJ r.roJ,,o
tiOn from college without regard to
the courses taken no longer entities
the graduate to a teachers license
without examination. A limited
amount of professional training along
with graduation from college is now
required in practically every State fo1
certificatiOn to teach in high schools
Professor w. A. Wilkinson, head OF
the Department of Education of the
University of Delaware has investi-
gated the legal requirements in a mum.
Der of States in this section and has
arranged a series of courses designed
to meet these requirements. In jus.
tice to the students, therefor, an at.
/ tempt VIII De IHSue 10 INFORM Lnem u
the end that they may if they choose
elect such courses as will qualify
them to teach in the event that they
should decide to engage in teaching
either permanently or temporarily
This it is thought will prevent the re
occurrence of the confusion and disap
pointment that has happened in
number of instances in recent years.

BIG CLASSES MARK OPENING
UNIVERSITY OF DELAWARE
FRESHMAN CLASS IN BOTH MEN
AND WOMEN'S CLASS 100 EACH
DIR. HuIlihen, the New President, An
ticipates Big Year In All Depart
ments of The University

At a special meeting of the faculty
of the University of Delaware Monday
afternoon 85 new freshmen were adj
mitted to Delaware College and nearly
as many to the Women's College. The
final entrance examinations were held
yesterday and to-day and many more
new students for both institutions will
no doubt qualify for entrance before
the opening tomorrow, Thursday. 1t
is expected the freshmen class at Del
aware College will number more than
100 and at the Women's College close
to that figure. While the university
officially opens on Thursday all of the
remainder of the week will be devoted
largely to organization work. Presi-
dent Hulihen has arranged for con-
vocation to be held Friday afternoon
in the auditorium at Wolf Hall. This
is the first time at least for years that
there has been any formal affair of
the kind at the opening of college. The
student body of the Women's College
will march from that institution to
Delaware College. There an academic
procession will be formed and headed
by the members of the faculties of
both colleges in cap and gown the en-
tire body of the university will march
to Wolf Hall. DR.. Hullihen during
the exercises will give a 3O-minute
| talk.

FUCKERS NEW DEPARTMENT
Second Floor For Ladies' ClOaks and

Second Floor For Ladies' ClOaks and
Suits and a Comfortable Rest Room
John w. Tucker, who since he took
over the w. A. Winford store, remod-
eled it and added an up-to-date La
dies Department, has experienced
such a growth of trade he has been
forced to branch out. The past week
or two carpenters and painters have
been busy fitting up the second floor
of the Tucker Block which will be used
as the Ladies Cloak and Suit Depart
ment. The department is stocked
with the latest and best fall cloaks
and suits and is really most attrac-
tive room. To add to the comfort and
convenience of the patrons of the
store he has added a Rest Room,
place where women who come from
the country can make their headquar-
terS. Besides comfortable chairs and
the like there is a lavatOry and all
sanitary conveniences. The women of
the community are cordially invited to
make this store their headquarters
while in town. Along with good de-
pendable goods that are constantly for
sale, goes a service and comfort that
makes this established stand unique
as department store and second to
none in the state. See advertisement.

ESCAPED PRISONERS AT LARGE
Sheriff Graham Thought he had John
son at Marydel, But Not So

Sheriff Graham late Thursday even
ing received word thot one of his es-
capped prisoners of a week ago, Harvey
Johnson, of Kenton, had been located
near Marydel, Md, and that if he, the
sheriff, would come to Marydel, he
could get his man. The Sheriff with
his deputy, State Detective Wharton
and Chief of Police Lane, started on
the hunt of johnson. Arriving at the
house where he was supposed to be,
the officers having left their machines
some distance away, they aroused the
family, who apparently knew nothing
of Johnson's whereabouts. The house
was searched and no trace of the "slip-
perry" negro was had. Attention was
called to a small barn not far from
the house and on searching the loft,
Chief Lane, who was the first to as
cend the ladder to the loft evidently
felt he had at last landed Johnson, as
he saw pair of shoes, a cot and
blankets. They were at once recog-
nized as Johnson's belongings but on
prodding the hay, it was found that
Johnson had made his escape in
nearby woods. 1t is the belief of the
officers that johnson was scared off by
the raid made onn the house and the
barking of two hounds.

WHOLE NO. 354S
STATE DEMOCRATS TO MEET
Dover Probable Place For Conference
To Select WOlcOtt's Successor For
National Committeeman


Henry r. Isaacs, Democratic State
chairman, is expected to issue a call
for the meeting of the State Commit
tee during this week. While it has
not been definitely decided on what
date the meeting will be held, October
II has been favored. According to
present plans, the meeting will be
held in Dover, and the call will not
specify for what purpose the gather
ing is being held, although the only
business likely to come up is the Sc
lection of a national committeeman TO
succeed Chancellor Wolcott. Despite
the opposition from many quarters, it
is believed that Andrew c. Gray, of
Wilmington, is still the leading candi-
date for the post. 1t was Mr.. Gray's
nomination at the August meeting of
the committee that led to breaking up
the meeting. Some party leaders have
attempted to have Mr.. Gray's friends
withdraw his name but without sue
cess. The general feeling is that the
Gray candidacy will result in a wider
breach in the party ranks at the sOn-
templated Dover meetin. The Sussex
county committeeman, who broke up
the August meeting are said to have
gained considerable strength, and to
be planning a vigorous fight against
the selection of Mr.. Gray.

Prof. G. E. YeatOn, of Dover Schools
in Auto Collision at HOffecker's Pond
Gerald E. Yeaton, manual training
teacher at Dover public school, was so
seriously injured in an automobile ac-
cident at an early hour Monday morn
ing, as he was returning to Dover, that
fears are entertained for his recovery.

miles south of Smyrna, Philadelphia
car, driven by Tasker Davidson, Is
North Paxon street, Philadelphia, COL
lided with the other car, throwing

AVOID HESSIAN FLY IN WHEAT
Late Sowing Only Known Remedy
Delaware Farmers Appealed to

hdtC DOWihS Oily hhONH hCHituy-
Delaware Farmers Appealed to
The Hessian fly is the most injuri-
Gus insect enemy known to wheat in
Delaware. One it affects a wheat
crop there is no remedy. The only
remedy is preventive and that is to
keep the fly out of wheat by seeding
at the proper time. Wheat should
not be seeded in Delaware prior to
Ortober 1, except in the rolling sec
tion of northern New Castle County
The approximate earliest dates of
planting for the counties is as follows:
New Castle County. October / to s.;
Kent County: October 8 to 8; and Sus-
sex: October to 10. Keep the fol-
lowing point in mind: Practice crop
rotation. Do not sow wheat on wheat
stubble land if possible to avoid it.
Destroy all volunteer wheat by disk
ing or some other method. Plow land
to be seeded to wheat early and pre-
pare we'll; thoroughly compacting the
seed bed. Use good seed. Fertilize.
Seed wheat after the fly free dates
above.

PULL CATFISH WEIGHING 8 LBS.
Fishing Party From Delaware CITY
Get a Pair Measuring Is Inches


Fishing parties are the ruling pas
time at this time, with the lovers of
sports. Nearly every day one or
more parties leave for the fishing
grounds in the bay. The fact that so
many parties are enjoying the fishing
is said to be due to the fact that rail
and reed bird shooting has taken
slump. Low tides make it almost i'm
possible for the gunners to push the
boats through the reeds. NotwLh-
standing the falling off in the num-
ber of birds bagged, the marshes are
said to be full of the toothsome mem
bers of the feathery tribe. Two Della
ware City fishing parties returned on
Friday last with a large number Of
trout, suckers and catfish. The size
of the catfish this year is said to ex-
cell those of any year in the past de-
cade. In two instances catfish re-
Gently caught weighed eight pounds
