Are Feature Of This Year

With an enrolment which
came fully up to expectations the
public schools of the District
opened today for the 1930-31
season.
Definite figures have not yet

teachers will be engaged in in
structing this army nf students.

Structed and the entire public
school system overhauled. Police
men were to be stationed at the
corners near the schools to aid
the Schoolboy patrols in mininiz-
ing traffic dangers to the chill
dren.
High school pupils this year
will not have to purchase their
own books, having been relieved
of this burden by the passage of
free textbook legislation at the
last session of Congress.
Among the schools viii h
opened today was the Americans
zation School, Tenth and H SITS.

enrolment shows an increase.

superintendent of schools, de
clared that he was unable to
make an estimate of the probable
enrolment this year, it is ex-
pected that the end of this week
will see more than $4,000 pupils
enrolled.
A new eight-roonl 4 school for
colored pupils in Southwest Wash

ton period.

Since setting out on its last west

Toledo, 8 to 3. Ernie Wingard took
a turn at pitching for the Mudhens,
but was not as effective as usual,
while Slim Harriss held the Hens to
seven fairly well scattered hits. Hop

homers to the Saint attack.
Minneapolis punched hits in both

BIG new A|RPLANE
Is Expected to Arrive Sunday
With Four-Passenger Stin-
n-Detroiter Ship

Bismarck will have an outstanding
addition to its flying colony when E.
A. Hughes arrives Sunday from Min
neapolis with what Is expected to be
the handSomest plane owned by q
North Dakota resident.
Hughes left for Minneapolis Thurs
day to meet Vincent Cavasino, local
flier, who piloted the big Stinson-
Detroiter from Detroit to Minneapolis
and who will bring it to Bismarck
with Hughes as q passenger.
A 50-foot steel hangar already has
been erected at the municipal flying
field to house the plane. Its wing
spread will be slightly more than 48
feet.
Before leaving. Hughes said he pur-
chased the plane because Of its abil-
ity to save time and will use 1t for
business as we'll as for pleasure. He
does not intend to drive it himself but
explained that the machine Is of such
type that it would be easy for him
to learn to do ST. Late improvements
in airplane design, he said, are such
that a well-equipped modern plane
practically flies itself.
The machine is a four passenger
cabin monoplanc finished in black
and silver. The interior of the cabin
is finished in leather and the seats
are upholstered in that material.
The ship is powered by a 225 horse
power radial, air-cooled, Lycoming
motor, which usually runs about
$4,000 miles. without overhauling. Mr..
Hughes said.
He has retained Cavasino to pilot
the plane at such times as he cares
to use it.

proximately $4,000. Mr.. Hughes said

CONTAMINATED MILK
| BLAMED FOR TYPHOID
Seven Cases at HettinEer
Traced to Lack Of Santa
ton by Dairyman

Seven cases of typhoid fever, re-
ported from Hettinger, have been
traced to a dairy located at that
place, A. L. Bavone, sanitary engineer
for the state health department, said
on his return home today from a
hurry-up trip to the Adams county
city.
The typhoid fever scare was assum-
ing epidemic proportions when the
state health department was called
in and additional cases may yet be
reported, Bavone said. Efforts to
prevent further spread of the disease
have been made by barring delivery
of milk from the dairy in question
and by recommending incubation OF
all persons who have obtained milk
from the dairy or who have come in
contact with persons having the dis
ease.
Hettinger is contemplating the
passage of an ordinance calling for
rigid supervision of it's milk supply as
the result Of the outbreak, Bavone
said.
The disease was traced to the dairy,
the COWS of which waded in slough
water, heavily contaminated by city
sewage, twice daily to reach their
pasture. It was established. Bavone
said, that the contaminated water
splashed on the flanks. legs n I'd
ders Of the cows and they were never
washed before milking. AS a result.
he said, the germs were transmitted
to the milk during the milking
process.
Failure of the dairy to properly
sterilize bottles was given as an ad-
ditional cause. Bottles returned from
a home in which a typhoid fever pa
| tient was found, were washed IN not
water but were not sterilizeo IN a
manner calculated to Kill disease
germs. ..,-
Bayone said the Hettinger outbreak
is similar to those which nav &C.
Cured elsewhere in the state: ne
said they emphasized the need ior
adequate supervision and inspec1'oh
of a city milk supply.
