o 81! ;75 e; i G.:

There are bound to be many times
In a round of golf when backspin
shot is vital to low scoring. Pitch
shots with enough backspin on the
ball to bring it to a stop quickly, are
particularly necessary when trap is
between the ball and the flag.
: Many golfers have the idea that it
is the loft of the club that makes the
ball climb. But backspin also will
help send the ball into the air at even
a sharper angle, and the more loft to
the club, the more backspin can be
applied.
There Is only one way to apply
backspin and that is to hit the ball
crisp, descending blow, letting the
club bite into the turf after the ball
has been struck.
Do not try to lift the ball with a
flick of the wrists. You probably will
top it.

LEWES-CAPE MAY
FERRY PROJECT
Again Revived With the
Report That New York
Interests Mean Business
SEEK FRANCHISE, LEWES

Prospects for the starting of the
proposed ferry line between Lewes,
Del. and Cape May, n. j., reached
optimistic proportions with the
visit to Lewes of representatives Of
the Excursion Steamboats,, Inc, of
New York, who met with Mayor
U. w. Hooker, and other prominent
citizens and presented the most
feasible proposition yet offered for
the long-discussed ferry service.
The New York concern proposed
that the town of Lewes grant a
franchise for a site on the bay
shore for the building of proper
ferry terminals, and this has been
tacitly agreed to contingent upon
satisfactory negotiations with the
ferry operators. It is understood
that a similar franchise has been
granted them by the Cape May
town authorities. Former business
dealings regarding the project have
involved a large monetary expendi-
ture on the part of the two towns
interested, which has not met with
the approval of town officials, and
for this reason building of the
ferry line has never reached con-
summation. The offer of the New
York concern does not include any
such local expenditure, the repre-
sentatives told the Lewes citizens.
The distance between Cape May and
Lewes is twelve miles across Della
ware Bay. The Excursion Steam
boats, Inc, headed by w. H. Ell
lery, is an organization which owns
six steam screw steamers, the par
ticular steamer which is offered
being the ''Rappahannock," a steel
propeller vessel, 220 feet long, hav-
ing a 40 foot beam, with speed of
about Is knots an hour. 1t has a
capacity for approximately 40
automobiles, motor buses and
trucks. Mr.. Ellery went to Lewes
with F. c. Stolz, who will act as
traffic manager, and Louis Splitter,
all of New York. They told Mayor
Hooker they had been assisted in
their Investigations of the ferry
project by highway authorities re-
garding the anticipated traffic to
use the ferry line. and were in
formed that the amount of vehicu-
lar traffic would probably reach
around 1900 a month, shortening
the distance between New York
and Southern points by approx
mately seventy-five miles.

SHOT CUNNING
FOR SQUIRRELS
Clayton Draper, MiddletOwn,
Dies in Delaware HOpital
From Wounds
AL SCHUMAN ARRESTED

The first fatality of the hunting
season in Delaware, occurred when
Clayton Draper, % years old, of
Middletown, died Sunday in the
Delaware Hospital, Wilmington,
from shotgun wounds received Sat
urday. According to the State
Police, Draper, with Albert Schu-
mann, 81 years old, of Middletown,
and James F. Van SAINT, 80 years
old, of Blackbird, were hunting
squirrels near Middletown. The
men separated, and while Schu-
mann was walking through the
brush he heard a rustling that be
believed was a squirrel and fired.
Running to the spot, he found
Draper unconscious with blood
streaming from wounds in his face.
With the aid of Van SAINT, he took
Draper to Middletown, from where
he was removed to the Delaware
Hospital, Wilmington, where an
operation was performed, but some
of the shot had penetrated Drap-
er's brain and resulted in his
death. Schumann was arrested by
Private r. w. Carpenter, of the
State Police, on a charge of man.

fore Magistrate Hodgson, of Mid

MIDDLETOWN HAS
A NIGHT ROBBERY

The truck was overtaken at 3 a. m
near the Black Cat. The clothing
found in the truck was identified
by Mr.. Berg as that taken from the
store. The truck bore Maryland

The Board of Budget Directors,
of which Lieutenant Governor ].
Henry Hazel is chairman, and Sec
retary of State Charles H. Grant
land and Representative Harry B.
Van Solver are the other members,
began public hearings provided in
the act of the last General Assem-
bly,, at the State House in Dover
yesterday at 10 o'clock a. m. The
hearings will be public, and any
citizen or group of citizens may at
tend and be heard upon any sub
ject matter properly in review.
For the convenience of the State
departments and agencies located
in the vicinity of Wilmington,
meetings are to be held later in the
hearing room of the Industrial Ac-
cident Board in the Delaware Trust
Building. It is the purpose of the
Board to submit to the Governor
for his consideration a balanced
budget and, to this end, the esti-
mated receipts are to be carefully
reviewed, and the requested appro-
priations scrutinized on the basis
of rigi@ economy Despite this an

two years is being sought by the

"a and 1934-35 operation, it is said
Public hearings on budget requests
began Monday before the Budget
Directors in Dover. The budget
request for 1934-35 for the Board
of Education is $3,99O,0OO, while
for 1933-34 it is S3,861 900. It is
understood the budget commission
ers are inclined to reduce these ap-
propriations to below the $780,
900 mark, in view of the falling off
in the franchise tax which is the
largest source of supply for the
school fund. The law provides
that the total budget appropriation
items may not be increased where
they will exceed the State revenue
from all sources as estimated in
the budget. With a total general
fund appropriation of less than
100000 as the objective, the
Board is understood to be favor
able to a general reduction of 10
per cent in all appropriations.

ATTEMPTED ROBBERY, DOVER

A daring robbery took place in
Dover Saturday evening between s
and 9 o'clock when the residence of
E. H. Atkinson on Bradford street,
near Loockerman, Dover, was en-

drawers were pulled out and con-
tents thrown on the floor and a
desk was forced open. From a
check-up by the family later in the

anything of value had been taken
In pulling out one drawer in which
there was an envelope containing
$50, the robbers overlooked this as
it was found intact. Police officers
