Winter Hints To Play Safe
When 1t Comes To Icy
Roads and Pavements
SOME HOME HINTS TOO

When cold weather comes and
forces people to spend most of
their time indoors, accidents fol

cording to the Delaware Safety
Council. Excluding occupational
injuries, persons are hurt in sum
mer chiefly on the highways, in
sports, and under other outdoor
circumstances. AS December
draws to a close the accidents fol
low them indoors. The change is
a natural one, depending largely
Oh the greater number Of hours
which people spend in their homes
as winter closes in. There are,
however, many hazards peculiar to
cold weather which help to send
the home death toll soaring. Chief
among these is the hazard of icy
steps and stairs While this is
not an indoor danger, it is CLASH
fed strictly as a home hazard and
accounts for large numbers of
home injuries and many fatalities
each year. Elderly persons are
the most frequent victims and
many a broken hip sustained on a
slippery step results fatally. While
handrails on the front steps may
have their disadvantages from an
artistic standpoint, they are quite
necessary for safety. Sand or
ashes sprinkled on the snow and
ice would also prevent many falls.
Suffocation and asphyxiation in
crease in the winter months and it
is well to remember that homes
should be kept well ventilated.
Among the chief hazards of the
home which exist in summer and
winter alike are falls, burns, cuts
and scratches, poisons and fire.
arms. The Council recommends a
searching examination of the home
for accident hazards at this time
of the year. Large numbers of ac-
cidents, it is said, would be elimi-
mated by the same kind of safety
engineering now common in well
managed factories.

FRAZIER ATHLETIC FIELD
Will Be Almost Double Size Due
to Gift of Friend of College

Through the generosity of a
friend of the institution Frazer
Field, the athletic field at the Uni
versity of Delaware is to be great
Iy enlarged to meet the require
ments of a growing student body.
The field adjoining and east of
Frazer Field known as the Wilson
plot has been bought and present
ed to the University it was an
nounced few days ago. The an
nouncement was made by A. G.
Wilkinson, business administrator
at the University at the students
Thanksgiving dinner. While the
name of the donor has not been
publicly announced it is under
stood to be a friend who has al
ready aided the university in a
material way. This new field is
almost as large as Frazer Field
which was presented to the uni
versity 20 years ago by the Frazer
family as a memorial to Joseph
Frazer, an alumnus of Delaware
College. Application has been
made to the Civil Works Admins
tration in Wilmington for an ap-
preparation to have the necessary
grading done and the wall that
separates the two fields removed.
The new field for the past several
years has been usd as an automo-
bile parking field during the foot
ball season. This addition will
give an opportunity to develop in
tra-mural sports. On the new
field tennis courts will be laid out
a soccer field and a football grid
iron which will be used for prac-
tice, retaining the present grid
iron for games.

Negro Demo. Leaders

Prominent Negro Democratic lead
ers met in Chicago to make plans to
obtain some of the Democratic pie.
They decided to remain united as a
group. They are going after what
they want intelligently.
The idea was expressed, and it is
the danger signal, that some indi-
vidual might try to cut in at the
top and thereby injure the chances
of the success of the group. That
is the thing which has seriously dam
aged Negroes who vote the Repub-
lican ticket
THE ENTERPRISE hopes that
the Democratic leaders of color will
stick to their guns; that they will
act as an organized body to the
end that some of them will get big
positions. Then, too, it is desired
that the Negro Democratic chief
tains will so conduct themselves that
they will be able to secure decent
treatment for the twelve million
Negroes from the Federal Govern
ment.
We were told that the New
Deal" included Negroes. If any
group needs a New DEAL it is
black Americans. We hope the
result will exceed our expectations

Senators and Congressman rave
about this holy document on indie

For more than a half century
three Amendments to the Constitu-
tion have been nullified. BY com

Last week Congress began to null

THE ENTERPRISE believes that
the 18th Amendment should be re-
pealed, not nullified. Congress does
by indirection what it is too cow
ardly to do openly. Instead of MAX

Congress should strive diligently to
make the Constitution effective in

Georgia Chain Gang

The governor of Georgia COM
plains that the governor of New Jef-
sey violated the Constitution when
he refused to return the author of
Fugitive from a Chain Gang" to
Georgia.
Perhaps some of the statements
made by Burns are exaggerated, but
everyone knows that Georgia Dor
ders on barbarism. 1t is peculiar that
states like Georgia violate all the
laws of God and man with impunity
and then object when the world is
told about the conditions.
The Constitution of the United
States has been violated, annuled
and trampled under foot by Georgia
for more than a half century. Now
its Governor of all people attempts to
preach to a respectable State like
New Jersey about high morals and
respect for the Constitution. The
Governor points out that highway
robbery is a serious crime in Geor-
gia. But he neglected to say that the
State looks with approval upon
peonage, brutality in its prisons, dis
franchisement and the lynching of
human beings.
Clean up your own State, Cover
nor, and then you may talk to others
about respect for the Constitution.
