afternoon in a game closely con-
tested throughout. The score was
8 to 8 in the first half of the
ninth inning. In the last half,
Saluda got three men on bases
and jim Culton made a hit across
the highway, ordinarily a home
run, but which on account of
ground rules is counted only as a
two base hit. This brought two
men in and ended the game 10 to

her record to seven wins out of
ten games. The batteries were:
Saluda: Summey and Pace,

SCHOOL BODY
MEETS AGAIN
State Commission Deter.
mining Boundaries of
New School Districts
The Times-News Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, June 22.-The State
School Commission started an all
day session here this morning to
determine the boundaries of the
new districts it must set up in
the counties, as well as pass upon
several other city administrative
districts. So far the commission
has approved 40 city administra-
tive districts, none of which have
a school population of less than
than 500 children. 1t is expected
that the commission will approve
from 10 to Is more of these city
districts, but not more than that,
although approximately 70 cities
and towns asked to be set Mp as
separate administrative units.
Those that ale not set up as sep.
arate units will remain parts of
the county school system and be
under the direction of the county
superintendent, even though they
NAV be pretty good sized towns.
Most of the commissions time
today, however, is expected to be
devoted to a study of the pro-
posed redistricting of the various
counties. Under the new school
law, all districts and all school
committeeman and district boards
have already been abolished. The
result is that no teachers can be
employed for any of the county
schools until the new districts are
set up and the new district COM
mitteemen named by the county
boards of education. Thus it IS
necessary for the school commits
sion to act as quickly as possible
to that these schools can be or
ganized for the term beginning
this fall. In some districts, the
schools open in July or August.
Another reason why these new
districts must be set up is to en-
able the school commission to al
lot teachers to the schools in
these new districts. so the local
boards and superintendent will
know how many teachers they can
employ for next year. So as soon
as the commission finishes this
redis-ricting work, it must begin
the allotment of teachers on the
basis of enrolment and other
school needs. The commission
plans to set up much larger dis
tricts than formerly existed, so
that all the elementary schools
that feed into a particular high
school will all be grouped into the
same district.

watering resort nthe shores OF
Lake Geneva. last night, after Il
wedding here this afternoon
marked by its simplicity.
The groom, better known as
Prince of the Austrias and form
er heir to the vacant throne OF
Spain, was married to Senolita
Edelmira Ignacia Andriana Sam
pedro-Oecjo, daughter of a
wealthy Cuban planter. He re-
nounced his claim to the throne
in wedding a commoner.
The young prince, who issued
invitations to the wedding as

him family name, joined the ranks
of young European royalty who
have revolted against class reStric-
tons and married the girls of
their choice rather than of the
choice of the royal court.
Rain fell in torrents over the
Alpine countryside during the
two ceremonies at Lausanne in
which the lovely Cuban commOner
became the bride of the pale
young prince who, until his we'd
ding, still had 4 chance some day
Of becoming king Of Spain. His
father, Former King Alfonso XIII,
last of the Bourbon MonarchS,
ignored the wedding and an
nounced he would diSinherit the
prince for his act.
The prince laughed and follow
ed his heart. The ceremonies were
conducted first at the hotel De
Vile here at 2:40 p. M, where
the civil requirements were gone
through with, and then later at
the little Catholic Chapel at
Ouchy, a village just below Lou
same on Lake Geneva. The mar
riage official, AuguSte Margot, de-
clared the marriage legal both in
Spain and in Cuba.
Thousands protected by umbrel-
las lined the roadway to the
chapel, and the police had great
difficulty in PRESSING the crowd
back in order that the bride, with
gorgeous 20-foot white satin
train could get out of her car and
enter the church.
Inside, only some GO persons
were gathered, bearing tn e
princes visiting card on which he
had written in his own handwrit-
inf :EInvitation." The prince wait
ed quietly at the church door
while bridesmaids feverishly I'M
tangled the brides train.
None of the princes family was
present, but all of the brides
family, many from Cuba, marched
up the aisle to the alter. The
couple sat in chairs directly be-
fore the altar throughout the
sermon, ring exchange and bene-
diction.
