A SAFE DRIVERS CLUB.

In spite of efforts the contrary traffic casualties the increase in most parts of the country. A Cafe Drivers Club has been organized in one city to meet the situation and the constitution ito awaken vehicle oprators to sense of their own responsibility in accident prevention
 It is hoped to have 100 per cent membership in the club among motor drivers in the community. Every member is asked to sign pledge promising one will be hurt through any careless of his. The judge of the local traffic court believes that "the moral obligation assumed by drivers thus pledged to carefulness will do to cut traffic casualties than the work of thousand traffic policemen"

The psychical research people in England and Germany said to be much excited by the feats of german medium named Willie Schneider, Is years old In the presence Of whole room full of learned "professors doctors and other savants, Willie while tightly bound and apparently unconscious, causes a table several feet away to rise into the air. to an accompaniment of ringing bes loud knocks and other familiar .spirtualistic phenomena
 All this, the savants conclude, could not be done by trickery, and could not be produced normally by the medium. Wherefore they are much mystif1ed.
 For half century more the psychical societies have been in continual state of mystifcaton about psychic phenomena of kind other and do not have got very far with all their multitudlnous experiments in spite of the efforts of exceptionally gifted like William James, Sir Oliver Lodge, Prof Hyslop Sir A. Conan Doyle. Yet they keep right on repeating experiments which have been familiar in India ornany centuries in the evident hope of finding the secrets of the human soul and the mysteries of life and death.
 There are students who say these tireless ex- permenters would along much better in their quest if they would drop their fooing with familiar 'phen- cmena' and give serious consideration the teaching of the psychologists of India regarding the nature of According to the easterA teaching such things as those done by the German medium done by fastrak boay whchh jtsef material and capable kkAtHng sseAAtafey from the physical body though aEhlgs with the immortal spirit in which M Fsearchers really interested.

NEWARK HIGH
MAY GET IN
Rr POLLY HY

With the football and soccer sea-
sons safely slowed away in scho-
lastic ranks coaches are busy get
ting their basketball material In
shape so that they can have some
idea who will compose their varsity
squads. Already two local instltu-
tions. Goldey and Beacon, have
opened their 1929 season.
Next week will witness two more
school fives in initial action. Friends
School will inaugurate Its season
with Newark High as the opener
and on the following day Coach VIII
son will, bring his quintet back TO
oppose the Wilmington High School
representatives. The following week
Salesianum Catholic High will get
under way.
Every one of these five institu-
lions are hoping for a successful
season. Nearly all Of them will
have teams made up Of new men,
as some of the star cagers OF last
year have left, via graduation route.
1t is necessary, that they have strong
combinations as their schedules are
by no means soft. Most Of them
have twenty or more games on their
schedules.
With Wilmington High. Friends,
Salesianum. Goldey and Beacon,
each with a strong quintet. II would
be a good idea If an interscholastic
basketball league would be formed.
There is no reason why there should
not be one in the First City of the
First State" other cities not even
as large as Wilmington, have leagues
which promotes athletics. It would
also create a better feeling in the
way Of craftsmanship among the
schools.
1t is not too late to form a leagul
as dates can be arranged which will
conflict with schedules in Vogue.
This would settle any disputes which
would arise at the end of the season
for some OF the local cagers who
will lay claim to the city title. May
be the method OF elimination could
be used or else have each quintet
play the other two games.

along the line OF the parade.
Both bands OF the town also show

quarter, Laurel was limping, tied up

only the ghost OF Laurel left, rep

Did the Knights of Columbus de-
feat Mt. Vernon, % to 81 or did Mt.
Vernon defeat the Knights of Col
umbus. 2S to %?
This question is the result Of the
City League tussle staged between
the leaders of the circuit in the
Wilmington Friends School gym
nasium at Fifth and West streets
last night. And the lead is still
deadlocked.
As the question now stands Ref
cree Maxwell has constituted him
self as the California to be heard
from" before the final count can be
decided. Maxwell failed to give a
decision last night.
The direct cause of the doubt as
to which team won the game was
caused by dispute between Timers
Abbott and Harkins as to whether
time was up or not when a field goal
was registered by Weitzel for the
Creek quintet. The claim is made by
the Knights that the timers whistle
was blown before the shot could be
legally counted, while Mt. Vernon
contends that the field goal was
made in accordance with the rules
OF the game.
No official timer was present al
though two were selected from
among the followers of the teams.
Neither was provided with a stop
watch. The entire matter will be
laid before President Walsh for
settlement while the standing will
night until the decision IS made.
The game was won by one Of the
teams. but which one (won)?
The Friends School gym was
packed to nook and corner with ex-
cited fans, perhaps the largest
crowd that ever crammed into the
building. There was an overflow on
the couFt with hundreds Of spec
tators right up on the players. The
continuous turmoil OF the game was
nothing to what came with the de-
cisionless ending with the close to
the 1000 fans in an uproar.
The game recalls one Of the sim

floor and there was some argument
on the time with the score very

time was given, however. and even |
