motored to West Chester yesterday
afternoon for an inter-club field
meet and dinner as guests OF the
West Chester Rotary. we're telling
today Of the delightful time had
by all.
A baseball game was played by
teams OF pick ups" Before the
game ended side-line rooters were
unanimous in declaring "cut-ups"
was a more appropriate term. Err
rors and comedy matched equally.
The Wilmington team was primed FOR
seven innings. but the gong sounded
for dinner at the NTH. with the
score standing 10 to in favor Of
West Chester.
Rlvaling in interest the baseball
game was a i00-yard dash between
Fred Wahl. secretary Of the West
Chester Rotary. and John +. Krauss.
secretary OF the Wilmington club.
The prize was a glazed pretzel.
without the o'd-time "trimmins."
Krauss won handily. but Wahl de-
clared stoutly that had there been
any "trimmins." he would have out
distanced Earl Paddock Krauss,
between munches on the pretzel.
" lowed he wasn't so certain. but
that he might do some extra super
speed sprlnting himself" under such
conditions.
The meet was staged on Wayne
Athletic Field and the dinner was
given in the old Green Tree Inn.
Those attending from here under
the leadership OF Mr.. Krauss were:
J. +. Blatz. Albert Bird. Ira Burns.

QUEEN MOTHER DEFIES TIME
Alexandra of Britain Active in Spite
of Her II Years-Puts
in Busy Day.

London, England.-Queen Alex
andra, the queen mother, now in her
seventy-eighth year, is far more ac-
tive than most women Of her age. She
might take life far more easily than
she does, but she evidently is opposed
to the idea of being laid on the shelf.
She likes to show herself among the
people, and she is gratified by the
applause with which her appearance
always is greeted. Undoubtedly It
acts as sort of psychological tonic
upon her and helps her to feel as
young as she looks
She crowds many activities into
day. One day recently she appeared
in public at the cart-horse parade for
prizes in Regents park, then at
concert in aid Of workshops for dis
abled soldiers and, finally, at the
Richmond horse show.
She makes, however, two conces-
sions to advancing years, She seldom
goes out of an evening, and she goes
to bed early, usually playing a game

SEES FORGOTTEN TRIBE
American Bird Specialist InvadeS
JungleS of Nicaragua.
Gets Large Collection of Rare Birds,
Beasts, Fish and Repkiies-Pene-
trates to Villages of Sumo
Indians

| delphla.-WhartOn Huber, as
sistant curator of the ORTHODOXY sec
ton Of the Academy of Natural Sci
| ences, returned recently to this city
| from hitherto little known regions OF
| Nicaragua, where he assembled q
large collection Of birds, beasts, fish
and reptiles, number Of which he be.
lieves have not yet been classified.
He also claims to have penetrated
to the villages Of Sumo Indians, who
rarely had seen white man. The
scientists specimens include 600 birds,
40 rare mammals and 1000 fish, rep
tiles and insects, all OF which will be
placed on exhibition in the local in
stitution.
my research work was done about
100 miles inland from the Nicaraguan
coast" said Mr. Huber. 1--WE estab-
lished our headquarters at a small
mining camp, whence we made trips
farther into the country. The aver
age annual rainfall here is lat inches.
From the time I reached the interior
until l left there never was a dry
article of clothing on me. The coun-
try is infected with red bugs, smaller
than feas, which burrow under the
skin and -inflict serious wounds.
Il went up the Prinza Polka river
for 1SO miles in a pitpan, an open
boat made of hollowed-out mahog-
any log. Then in a smaller pitpan I
assembled the Banbana river to Mimi
da. The district is billy and covered
with tropical forests so dense that 1t
is impossible to enter them until
way is cut by Indians.
THE only inhabitants are a few
scattered tribes Of Indians apparently
of Spanish and AIiskito Indian de-
scent. With body or these Indians
as guides, | penetrated to certain vii
lagos of the Sumo Inmans.
''The Sumo men are very skillful
hunters, but the tribe is rapidly be-
coming extinct With all their ability |
in hunting and their courage of fac
ng wild animals, they are excessively |
,imid of strange human beings and |
Will run away even from members Of
)ther Indian tribes. Miskito Indians
sometimes walk into their villages and
AXE anything they want without meet
ng resistance. The Sumos, number
ng about 500 souls all told, have the
liant, almond eyes Of the Chinese, and
heir skin is about the same color as
hat of a Chinaman.''
Mr.. Huber had with him number
f dogs, two of which were killed by
aguars. The scientist believes that
ully 40 per cent of the birds. and an
mails he shot were lost. because Meth
r dogs nor Indians could make their
-ay into the jungles to the point where .
hey fell. He used dynamite to secure
is fish specimens.

Camping Party Uses
Hearse for Bedroom

Frank Remlinger of Green
Bay, Wis, and four friends, on
a camping jaunt, use a hearse
instead of the usual type of mo-
tor caravan. Only a few
changes were necessary. Part
Of the glass side was replaced
by board panels and a flooring
was put in, dividing 1t into
decks. Two of the party sleep
upstairs" and all supplies are
carried below. Three of the
party sleep in tents.
Rubber tires insure easy rid
ing. No ghosts have been en-
countered so far, even when
they camp next to a cemetery,
and no matter how it storms,
the hearse is snug.
