Indoor Sports at Local
Armory

Two hundred spectators attended a
smoker given by Company No. 8 OF
the Delaware National Guard, in the
armory and were treated to an ath-
letic exhibition of merit, Friday even
ing. After the program, which con-
sisted of wrestling and boxing bouts,
was concluded, sandwiches and coffee
refreshed the guests of the guards
men. Cigars and cigarettes were
furnished the visitors during the
evening.
The feature of the evening was the
bout between "Lefty" Smith and
Kearns, both local boys. Smith, who
was in fine form, appeared to have the
edge on his opponent. The exhibition
staged by these two was the most ex-
citing Of the evening, and more than
once brought applause from the spec
tators. King, of A. E. F. boxing
fame, and local rehabilitation stu
dent, acted as referee. Other contests
were StdSeu DelWceu w dIISIl cIlO

Next week the committee in charge
of the Newark Town Library is con-
ducting a drive for increased men,
bership. Hitherto approximately one
hundred people have subscribed an
nually to the support of what is
practically public institution. This
year the committee hopes to raise
that number to three hundred.
With the exception of two small be-
quests and the income from a few
small bonds, the Library is dependent
upon subscriptions for it's support.
That means it depends upon the peo-
pie of Newark for it's existence. Each
year there are enough subscriptions
to pay the running expenses of the
Library; that is, clerical expenses,
light and heat. The Academy Trus-
tees very generously give the room in
which the Library is housed rent free.
But mere existence is not the object
of the Library Committee; for that
means a dead Library.
For real growth and usefulness the
Library must have new books. This
| fall the committee added some sixteen
new books, which it felt would be of
interest to the community as whole
That they were Of interest has been
evidenced by the fact that they have
been in circulation ever since they
were put on the shelves. But the

LIBRARY DRIVE
FOR MEMBERSHIP
NEWARK CAMPAIGN FOR MORE BOOKS
SPECIAL ATTENTION TO BE GIVEN
CFIILDREN'S BOOKS

Library Committee cannot continue to
add books at that rate with the funds
which it has at hand. For this rea-
son the Library Committee is appeal
ing to the public for new member
ships at the usual annual subscrip-
tion of one dollar year.
The Library Committee is especi-
ally anxious for the success Of their
membership campaign in order that
the number of books for children may
be increased. The Town Library is
working directly in cooperation with
the schools in this matter, and it is
the. hope of the committee to be able
to put upon the shelves all the books
which the children need for their
outside reading. Those who have any
knowledge of the scarcity Of books
for this sort of work in the public
schools will appreciate the service
which the Library is rendering to the
educational system. Incidentally the
school children may take these books
from the Library without any MEM
bership subscription. The committee
hopes that many people in the town,
even if they do not care to use the
Library themselves, will take out
memberships for the sake Of main
tanning the Library that their chill
dren use in their school work.

Although the Synodical Society has
been meeting for many years
throughout the eastern synods, this is
but the second annual meeting Of the
present organization. Previously, two
societies existed under the names OF
the Synodical Society of Home Mis-
sions and the Synodical Society OF
Foreign Missions. In 1920 consoli.
dation was effected in order that the
efforts of the two divisions might be
more directly administered. The com
bination is little known among the
members as SO little change was nee
essary to complete the consolidation
However, the work has been concen
trated much better and results have
warranted the new organization.

Second Fight
Did Not
Come Off
Visitors to Newark on
Monday Night Dis
appointed
Newark Unused
Such Si6htS

Six automobiles full of people in
vaded Newark for the excitement
which they believed hovered over. this
town, as the result of Sunday even
ing's fracas on Monday evening. It
was the plan of these gentlemanly
neighbors to assist the local forces in
their struggle with the college boys.
The streets were lined with men on
Monday evening, girt for the combat
in the oldest, most tattered clothes
available. Main street had been con-
verted into battlefield on Sunday
evening, after Bert Grove, local
boy, had accosted William Boyce, a
student, who alleges Grove used in
sulting and abusive remarks to girl
friends with whom he was convers-
ing. Boyce, after accepting the re-
marks with a shoN, from the pave
ment, sought assistance from his
friends in the dormitory.
Led by Sophomore, three students
hurried to the Deer. Park Hotel
whence Grove was known to have
repaired after the incident at Depot
Road and Main street. The college
boys entered the hotel, dragged sew.
eral of the occupants into the street
and rough and tumble melee en-.
sued. Immediately the quiet Of the
Newark Sunday evening was disturb.
ed by the gathering of the opposing
clans. Groups from the Hills gather
ed as the famous Douglas clansmer
had sprung from the brush. The
town lads were also reinforced by as
sistance from their pals, and a melee
followed. The war was waged w
and down Main street. Lingering
students returning from Sunday eve
ming engagements beat hssty retreats
when accosted by seventy or more EN-
battled Newark youth. More fight
ing ensued in which severa! local gen
tlemen received chastisement, or pun
ishment. One student is said to hav
executed a most strategic retreat I,
the dorms, loudly seeking the assist
ance of the reserve battalions shell
tered there. Close upon his heels wa
the pack all bent upon en-
tering the dormitories and bringin,
out their assailants. AS the crow
collected Mayor Frazer, Dean Smith
and the local arm and majesty of tn
law put in their appearance and at
tempted to quiet the fervent youth.
Rumors were rife that troubl
would be repeated on Monday, but no
sign was evident. In fact, regard
less of the important merits of tn
case, which are no more than thos
of any brawl, such disgusting sight
are rare to Newark as crowds gather
ed to participate in fight. Thi
spirit of lawlessness has been part
cularly evident in this town durin
the last few weeks. A pretty spec
tacle it was for the peace abidin
: citizenry to walk down thestreet o
Monday evening, and see hoodlum
here and there with heads togethe
discussing nothing more than the pos
sibility Of fight.
There were few students on tn
streets, however. Dean Smith ha
advised them to be discreet and cat
tious, and avoid a repetition of Sur
day evenings incident. Inasmuch 6
no arrests were made, and the blan
and fault is matter of gossip an
talk, it is believed settlement of tt
affair has been made.
