in Ludin's woods near Christiana,
had his first try-out Of the season

routed out the "old-timer" about 10
o'clock. and ran him until almost
dusk yesterday afternoon.

the victim Of many a chase, and is
wise in the ways Of dogs and men.
His method is to keep about two or
three hundred yards ahead of the
dogs, and furnish enough sport
without getting too close to be killed.
After leaving his lair he never thinks
of returning until the hunters have
given him up, which is usually about
dusk. Yesterday was no exception

PROGRAM
TAKING FORM
Education Board Hopes to
Erect Two New Buildings
Each Year
GET FUNDS BY
BOND ISSUES

It is the hope OF the City Board Of
Education to erect two new school
buildings a year. at an approx
mate cost OF $780, 900. Ellwood Sou
der, president of the board. told
members of the Mayors Advisory
Committee at its monthly session
yesterday afternoon.
Discussion of the school program
occupied much of the committees
time. Laying OF sidewalks. coming
and the garbage situation were other
topics discussed.
While the school building pro-
gram is far from complete, Mr.. Sou
der said he believde funds neces-
sary to finance at least two new
buildings a year could be had
through bond issues. He said the
board hopes to give City Council a
detailed plan early in January.
The recent move to have side
walks laid in parts of the city where
numerous gaps exist. making walk
ing unpleasant and sometimes dan
gerous for pedestrians was discussed
by Andrew l.. Johnson, president of
the Street and Sewer Department.
Mr.. Johnson said that while his de-
partment would be glad to do every
thing possible to further a plan to
lay sidewalks, there was no law &c
compel property owners to take such
steps.
Mr.. Johnson said a bill permit
ting the city to do such work and
charge it against the properties so
improved was now under consider
alton and would be presented to the
next session of the General Assem-
bly, for enactment. 1t was reported
that the garbage disposal system
had been thoroughly investigated
and that a concrete plan for handling
this problem would be fully worked
out by the Board of Health in CO.
operation with City Council.
Progress on the marine terminal
project has been so satisfactory, &C
cording to the representatives of the
Harbor Board present, that the
building has reached a stage where
winter weather will not delay the
work. Practically all the ground
work is under way and will be com
pleted before snow falls, permit
ting the contractors to push the
overhead work during the winter
months.
