from his car, obtain a ticket for the
reserved space Immediately.
The greatest crowd which mas ever
watched a race in this state is ex-
pectcd at the International speedway
next Monday and it is to meet this
influx of people that the committee
has decided to have reserved spaces.
LoclShart has defeated Harper, Lee
and many other drivers of note and
has beaten the best time Of any driv-
er who has ever appeared on the To-
cal track. His Miller car is declared
to be a whiz while Petticod, Canadian
champion, who is driving for W. S,
White, is nearly as fast. Without
the semblance of a doubt, the race
here on Washington's birthday viii
be one of the closest and most thrill
ing ever conducted on dirt track
in the United States.
John Mais, now in Phoenix, who
recently has taken UP his residence
here, has entered two cars IN the
race. They will both be Dodge spe-
cials. Mais driving one. himself and
w. r. Harper the other Other posi-
tive entries to Gaze are J. 4. Baker
of this city who will operate a CEev-
rolet special and Tom Harbour OF
Douglas who Will drive the same
make of car.
Then of course there is James
Randolph, Arizona state champion
who will put his Douglas Special tc
the test against Lockhart and who

believes that he will be able to de-
feat the national champion if the
breaks are at least even.
Such is the gala entry list at rres
ent-a list of drivers which dazzles
the racing clientele of Douglas be-
cause of its national character and
because it guarantees a Wonderful
race.
In addition to lle drivers mention
ed above, there are several othesr
of renown who it is believed Will
surely be here Mais has written
from Phoenix that Harold Peterson,
always a dangerous foe. is ready to
enter and that Jack Budy of the
capital city with a Ford Special and
Johnny Mccoy cf Phoenix with a
Bluebird special, are also interested
in coming here.
Then threre is w. c. Weldy or
Phoenix and possibly Jimmy Carmen
netti, all fast and nervy opponents.
And Lockhart is doing his best to
line UP other famous drivers on the
coast SO that the local field will
probably contain at least Is entrants
for the race.
Thus the advice of the committee
in charge to the public Of Douglas
is to get what reserved parking
space they want at once, for unless
all guesses are wrong, the Interna-
tional Speedway on Washington
birthday will enclose the greatest
crowd ever drawn by any race in the
southwest.

ELKTON WOMAN SHOT

Mrs. Mary Constable May, Of Will
mlngton, Del, daughter of the late
Albert Constable, a prominent law
yer OF Elkton, was shot and probably
fatally wounded on a downtown
street in Washington, D. c., on
Monday. April 26, by Enroll Elgin,
a 24-year old elevator operator in
the Evening Star building, who, the
police say, was aiming his pistol at
a taxicab driver.
Elgin, the officers said, had in his
possession money draw to pay OF
elevator men working under him,
and he used his pistol when the
taxlcab driver refused to drive away
with him. The bullet missed the
driver and struck Mrs. May.
Mrs. May was rushed to the
Emergency Hospital, where surgeons
found the bullet had entered the
left cheek and struck the spine,
paralysis developing. Just before
the shooting she had walked out of
the Raleigh Hotel to join her hus-
band, William Howard May, who is
vlce-president of the Porter Motor
Company in Wilmington. They in
tended to motor home and she was
standing on the sidewalk when hit.
Mr.. May for many years was
resident of Washington. In earlier
years he was secretary to the late
Senator German of Maryland. He
mad also served as U. S. Marshal in
Panama, and for time was secre-
tary TO Gen. Goethals, when the
latter was in charge of construction
of the Panama Canal.

PROMINENT QUARRYVILLE MAN
COMMITS SUICIDE

The lifeless body of 1. Haines
Dickinson, president of the Farmers
National Bank, of Quarryville, Pa,
and prominently identified with other
business interests of the town, was
found in the garage at his residence
on Monday, about noon. Ill health
is supposed to have prompted Mr.
Dickinson's rash act in taking his
life, as he had been sufferer for
years.
Several years ago he was operated
upon for mastoid abscess, and later
it was necessary for another opera
ton. Since then he was required to
undergo treatments almost weekly.
Mr.. Dickinson was born in Sails
bury Township, Lancaster county,
and was 63 years of age. He was
member of the Society of Friends.
He is survived by his wife, and two
sisters Miss Jamesca Dickinson
and Mrs. Anna Eavenson, both OF
Quarryville.
The funeral services were held at
his late home Thursday afternoon at
two O'Clock, with burial in the
Quarryville cemetery.

COUNTY HEALTH ASSOCIATION
Criticises Commissioners And State
Health Officer

The Public Health Association of
Cecil County charges politics is be-
ing played in Health matters, and at
special meeting held in Elkton
last week, strong resolutions were
passed criticising the County Com
missioners and also Deputy State
Ohcers Franklin for actions that
smack too much of politics.
The Whig in it's report of the pro-
ceedings OF the meeting says DR..
Joseph P. Franklin, Deputy State
Health Officer for Kent, Queen
Anne's and Cecil counties, was called
upon to explain his position as
Health Officer and his connection
with the recent change of the part
time Health Officer of Cecil county.
DR.. W. G. Jack explained to the
Association his position with refer
ence to the State Department and re-
viewed the work of the Association
during his term.
The following motion, expressing
the sentiments of the Associa-
ton, was passed The Asso-
cation wishes to go on record
as condemning the action of the
County Commissioners in summarily
removing DR.. Jack as County Health
officer, whose work in the Associa-
lion and County has been highly
appreciated, and would ask in the
future, before any appointment be
made that recommendation be re-
quested by the Commissioners from
the Public Health Association.
A petition signed by the Executive
committee of the Association and
forwarded to Drs. Fulton, Knox and
RELY, OF the State Department of
Health, is as follows
we, the undersigned members of
the Public Health Association of
Cecil County, protest against the
undue influence of the Deputy
Health Officer, DR.. ]. P. Franklin, in
requesting the County Commissioners
TO make change of Health Officer
and Misrepresentation made to the
Commissioners. We feel that the
state Department should keep hands
on, In view of the fact that all re-
qulrements of the state, as far as we
know, have been complied with.
This We understand has been your
policy in the past. We ask for the
sake OF the work in the county and
for the sake of Public Health in
general that DR.. Franklin be trans
ferred to another field. This Asso-
citation is on record as heartily en-
dorslng DR.. Jack and his administra-
ton of affairs in the county.

ADDRESS BY CONGRESSMAN
UPSHAW

Rising Sun M. E. church was
packed Sunday afternoon to hear
Congressman w. d. Upshaw deliver
his address on Americas Greatest
Battle"
Mr.. Upshaw is a leader among
the moral forces of Congress and
those who had the pleasure of hear
ing him Sunday afternoon will
readily testify to his force and
eloquence. His presentation of the
Prohibition cause was masterly.
Among the assurances he gave his
auditors was one that despite DR..
Nichols Murray Butler, learned head
of Columbia University, who wants
Prohibition taken out of the Con-
stitution, it would NOT come
out of our Constitution, as thirty
six out of forty-eight States will not
vote wet in this generation or the
next. Neither will AL. Smith or
"a man nearer home" ever get into
the White House so long as they are
wet"
Mr.. Upshaw made a strong plea
for law enforcement. His address
was one of the best ever delivered
here in the interest of Prohibition.

RISING SUN SCHOOL NEWS


The final Parent-Teachers Asso-

was held on Tuesday evening, at the
school building. Officers for the
following year were elected, as
follows President, Rev. j. G. Nc
Coy; ce-President, w. Louis
Ryan; Secretary and Treasurer, M.
Ethel Hall.
After the election of officers Rev.
Mccoy gave us a splendid address
on the subject of Cooperation "
Plans are being made to make next
years Association bigger and better
than ever.
On Monday afternoon, for the
third consecutive year, our ball
team played Elkton High School
for the championship of Cecil coun-
ty, at Perryville. The game lasted
ten innings and ended in a score
of Z to l in favor of Elkton. A
better, cleaner, more spirited ball
game could never be seen. For
nine whole innings both teams play
ed excellent ball. But in the tenth
inning, after Joe Cooney, our little
left fielder was forced to leave the
game on account of sprained
ankle, Elkton scored six runs, there
by winning the game. We can feel
proud, however, in putting up such a
great game against q much larger
and more experienced team.
Friday afternoon we play West
Nottingham Academy on our home
grounds at $3.50 o'clock,
