in any, other way. That applies ever
though the Rhodes scholar originally
elected has not begun residence in Ok
ford.
Therefore, here in Delaware, the
situation stands: That G.. Gray Car
ter, of the University of Delaware, has
been awarded the Rhodes scholarship
coming to this State this year; and
young Abbott has a chance to receive
appointment to fill any vacancy that
may be created in any part of the
United States by any cause.
Young Abbott has had an excep-
tionally brilliant scholastic career,
but he never has done much in the
way of athletics. He was born in Mil
ford on November 26, 1900, his parents
being Mr.. and Mrs. Charles D. Abbott
and his paternal grandparents, Will
liam W. and Sarah G. Abbott. When a
boy he attended the Milford public
schools and was graduated from the
Milford High School in 1918. In Sep
TENDER of that year he entered Hav-
erford College and was graduated last
June. In tabloid: his record at Hav-
erford was as follows: Business man
ager of the Haverford News, 1920;
member Student Council, '22; adver-
Using manager, Haverfordian, '22;
corporation scholarship, 20; English
prize, 20; honorable mention in verse

Cap and Bells, 20; secretary English !
Club, '21-'22; member Classical Club,
and secretary of Foun-
1ers' Club, 20; highest honOrs in Eng
fish, '22, the second time in the his
.ory Of Haverford; Hubbard memorial
prize for verse, 20; graduated second
nigh man for the four years work and
awarded Phi Beta Kappa.
In 1922 young Abbott was a teacher
If Latin and English at the Choate
school in Wallingford, Conn, and he
vas selected by Mrs. Howard Pyle of
to write the biography Of
Toward Pyle, deceased artist, of Will

While Charles David Abbott, Jr.,
HaverfOrd graduate, of Milford, this
State, failed to win the Rhodes schOI-
arship from the Delaware committee
of selection on Saturday afternoon,
he impressed the members of the
committee so favorably that hey have
recommended to Dr. Frank Aydelotte,
American secretary of the Rhodes
Trustees, that he be appointed to fill
the first vacancy in the United States
caused by the death, resignation or
disability of any American now hold
ing a scholarship. In fact, the Della
ware committee made a studiOus eff
fort to emphasize that Recommended
ton. In short, young Abbott has been
placed on a preferred list in the Office
of the American secretary at Swarth-
more College and there is no telling
how soon he may be called upon to
fill vacancy if the recommendation
in his behalf should meet with the ia
vor of DR.. Aydelotte.
The Rhodes Trustees direct their
various state committees of selec-
ton that no appointment should be
made in any-state where no candidate
likely to do credit to such scholar
ship offers himself. All vacancies so
created may be filled by the allotment
of scholarship-at-large subject to the
approval of the Rhodes Trustees. That |
practice was followed in this country |
in 1919 and 1920. To make such a
course possible each state committee |
is directed to send to the American
Secretary the credentials of any can
didate who has been particularly
strong but who has failed to secure
scholarship. Such credentials must
be accompanied by statement made
by the members of the State Commit
tee in which the qualifications of the
man are clearly set forth. 1t is stipu-
lated that no state committee shall
recommend to the American Secre-
tary and through him to the Rhodes
Trustees, more than one candidate for {
a scholarship-at-large. There also is
a distinct understanding that no rec '
watever shall be made Y
unless the qualifications of the man
are so exceptional as to I
it. 1t also should be said that I
The state committees cannot appoint c
alternates and the principle that State i
committees have the right to fill va +

 It is stated that MT. Taylor accir dentally discovered the copper pro- cess and succeeded in producing a blade that would retain a razor edge and had the qualities of steel. At the time of his death he was negotiating with an airplane manufacturer to fur nish hardened copper parts for the machine, During his copper investi- gations, 1t is said, he found an excel lent alloy could be produced from gold and copper.
 Among the effects in his workshop were found specimens of the anneal- ed copper and gold alloy, but no traces of the formulas

USED A HYPNOTIC
 POWER ON PEOPLE
Germany Has Interesting Case
 to Be Tried

Berlin, Feb. 9.-German cri1nino- logists, psychologists, medical and legal experts will hold a congress over the case of Leopold Miecyslaw Kittay, a Galician, whose trial on charges of misuse of hypnotic powers was set to begin here today. They have been summoned for opinions on psychology, hypnotism, suggestion and mental responsibility of persons who commit crimes while hypnotized.
 Kittay, who practiced hypnotism under the name of To Kittay, is alleg- ed to have influenced his clients to sell or pawn their valuables and give him money. He will also be held to answer charges of immortality for he is said to have had great influence over women, one of whom, the wife of a well-known merchant, tried to sell her house and furnishings without her husbands knowledge and succeeded in raising a considerable sum which she gave the hypnotist.
 He used part of the money in mak- ing brief tour of German cities where he gave public exhibitions of his power over the merchants wife who, with a friend accompanied him.
 The complaint against kittay cites as an example of his influence that he hypnotized a dancing girl while she was on the stage. compelling her to fall asleep and abandon the perform ance.. This girl is said to have de- tested tke hypnotist but could not re- sist his hypnotic power.
 A number of husbands whose wives were addicted to drug habits appeal ed to Kittay for assistance and in some instances he is alleged to have put the women to sleep and while in this condition suggested they sell or pawn their own valuables or the prop erty of their husbands, proceeds of which transactions he pocketed.
 kittay's defense will attempt to show the clients themselves were criminally inclined and committed the offenses without undue influence on the part of the hypnotist.
