1000 ID GRADUATE
 IN JUNE CLASSES
Aggregate Figurs Includes Pub
 lie and ParOchid Schools

Approximately 1000 pupils will figure in graduations of the three high schools and four parochial schools in this city this month. ac- cording to census taken among the principals today.
 In every case, it is expected that the number will be in excess Of that of last year. The junior high schools will probably feel greater ihsrease in enrolment next year que to the fact that graduates of the parochial schools will spend one year in junior high before they start three year course at the senior high school. With the increased number of pupils from the public elemen- tary schools the Central junior and Nathan Hale junior high schools are expected to be taxed to their limits.
 Following is the approximate estt- mates of the graduation classes: Senior high, 235: Central junior high, 275; Nathan Hale junior high, a65; St. Mary's. 100: Sacred Heart.

PARADISE OF TWO"
 SHOWING, COLISEUM

Paradise for Two" rip-roaring comedy drama that sent the audi ence into spasms of laughter, open ed at the Coliseum last night for a two-days' run. The pleas ing Richard Dix as Steve Porter, the handsome and affluent young bachelor, who never can say no to the pretty young things who panhandle him for money, adds another ray of light to his shining star of popularity. Other peculiar problems that Dix has to face in this newest starring role of his are a fortune that is not his unless he gets married, and he doesn't want to get married, an irate uncle with a lock on the Porter inheritance and who insists that the key to the strong box is wedding ring for Richard, and pretty girl, Sally Lane, tBetty Bronson1 with whom he falls in love after hiring her to pose as his wife.
 There are complications to the plot that form situations to make an audience hold it's sides in laughter. There are scenes that bring the suspicion of catch in the throat. For there's pathos enough to add spice to the comedy and bring it out to better advan- tage.

SAMUEL REA PASSES AWAY
 ON SU ND A '
Former President of Penn sylvania Railroad
 Dies.in East
Continued from Page One)

nificent Pennsylvania Railroad sta- ton in New York City. Years of study and planning reached frui- tion when MT. Req took entire charge of the gigantic engineering problem represented by the tubes which eventually eliminated the vexatious ferry trip from New Jer- sey to New York City that had to be taken by passengers on the Pennsylvania railroads. An earlier project. to bridge the Hudson from Hoboken to New York was aban- doned when the other interested railroads failed to join the Penn sylvania in financing the plan, and the decision to tunnel beneath the river was then made.
 Come Into Honors
 The great task was accomplished under the personal supervision of MT. Req. The bulk of the credit for the accomplishment had been accorded to Alexander J. Cassatt, but when the University of Penn sylvania decided to honor the man responsible by conferring upon him the degree of doctor of science, it was then that MT Req came into the honors that belonged to him.
 A short time later, he was el- ected to head the great railroad system and given control of more than l2,000 miles of road and 250,- GOO employees.
 Like many other outstanding ex- ecutives, MT. Req laid the founda- ton of his career as clerk in a small country store which he de- serted to enter the employ of the railroad From that time on, he was steadily employed on railroads in the Eastern section of the. Unit ed States until 42 years later, he won recognition from the Penn sylvania railroad directorate and was named as President of the road in 1912.

Always Accessible

Every detail of the operation of
 the Pennsylvania was at his finger
 tips. Riding in a train on an in spection trip, he often amazed his subordinates by calling the number of a train that sped by and noting that it was on time. Hailed as a great railroad executive, he never theless was always accessible to the army of employees he commanded. The days problems disposed of, the most humble trainman in the rail- way employ could talk to MT. Req by merely presenting himself where

The scene is laid in the wild and woolly West, where men are men, and where one particular man, woman hater, forms an exclusive golf and coun- try club, the slogan of which is fNo Women Allowed"
 The woman hater (Arnold Gray) sends to an Eastern club for a golfing instructor. Several weeks later Priscilla Dean rides into town

executive of in S tant decisions. Quick to sweep aside superficfiili- ties, he would make decision meaning millions of dollars to the railroad and then turn to his as sociates and ask What next?" while the men still were pondering over the problems that had just been disposed of.
 MT. Req married Miss Marie M. Black at the outset of his railroad career in 1879.

the railroad head maintained his headquarters.
 Born of Scotch Irish percentage September 21, 1855, in Holidays burg, Pa, the future president first entered the employ of the Penn sylvania railroad as a rodman on the Western Pennsylvania branch of the road When the panic of 1873 halted all construction work, young Req entered the employ of an iron company and during the nights studied to fit himself for career with the railroad.
 Had Tnnuel Project
 When he resumed his railroad job, he rose steadily in the employ of the Pennsylvania, until 1889 when he resigned to become vice. president of the Maryland Central Railway. Returning to the Penn sylvania, he went to London in 1892 to make a complete study of the underground railways of that city. The experience gained in Lon don later was put to advantage by MT. Req when the great New York tunnel project was under taken. When the United States en- tered the World War, private con- trol of railroads ended abruptly MT. Req and Daniel Willard, of the Baltimore and Ohio Railroad were summoned to Washington shortly after Woodrow Wilson is sued a proclamation assuming gov ernmental control of the railroads of the country. William G. Mo Adoo was named administrator of the roads, and he informed the two executives that he purposed taking direct control.
 MT. Req devoted his efforts to aiding the Government in it's han ding of the great transportation problem. He retired to the back ground but continued to offer sug- gestions and devise schemes for the efficient handling of Government troops and war munitions
 The end of the war brought the immediate intimation that Govern ment control of the roads be re- linquished and the railroads be re turned to private capital. MT. Req entered a protest against any such procedure which did not guarantee the stockholders of the railroads a return on their investment. After much debate, a railroad bill was drafted by Senator Cummins that contained many of the ideas en- tertained upon the subject by MT Req and his fellow railroad execu- tives.
 Great Reader
 MT Req was great reader. His friends were oft-times greatly sur prised by his intimate knowledge of subjects in which they were in- terested, entirely foreign to rail roading. He was especially fond oi biography and works of travel.
 His hobby for years was the study and collection of English antique silver, of which he was considered an amateur expert. He preferred wood chopping to golf.
 A man of imposing appearance with his six feet of height and g strong face topped by iron gray hair, MT. Req was known as ar
