Tornado Is Most Frequent
Disaster; Causes Heavy
Loss of Lives

What type of disaster occurs
most frequently in the United
States?
This question is answered from
the relief annals of the American
Red Cross, which show over a
period of years that the tornado,
or cyclone as it is called in some
sections, is the most frequent
and claims a heavy toll of life.
It swoops almost without warn
ing. and in the terrific whirlpool
Of its fierce winds it destroys all
in its path.
The Red Cross gave relief in
"A tornadoes in eighteen states
last year. The tornadoes killed
S26 persons, injured 2,755 and the
Red Cross gave aid to 21,73S who
were homeless, injured or other
wise victims of the storms.

Students of Delaware College

recommendation that at least that
portion of the system having to do
with examinations be abolished

tenn but students will seek the
right to try cases of violations I'M
