Expect Early Potato
Planting To Increase

Following two seasons of successive
reduction in commercial early pota-
acreage, reports to the United States
Department of Agriculture around
October 1, point to the probability
that the commercial paintings in the
10 early and intermediate States will
be increased nearly one-fifth in 1884.
This group of States begins with
Florida and Texas which supply the
earliest new-crop potatoes each sea-
son, starting in November, and ends
with New Jersey, shipping into Sep
TENDER.
The reported plans of growers and
operators at this early date are, of
course, subject to more or less varia-
ton before actual paintings are made
but the summary of their present
views indicated about $4,000 acres
for 1884 which would be 1870 larger
than the acreage harvested in 1888
and 100 more than the 1882 acreage.
The 1884 acreage possibilities for the
several groups of States drawn from
these reported October plans, COM
pare as follows with estimated acre
age in 1888 and previous seasons.

Maryland Meets
Green TerrOrs
AS Under Dog
Western Maryland College Has
Taken Three Games
Since 1928

University of Maryland's foot ball
team, in the process of being rebuilt
will meet the more veteran and exper-
fenced Western Maryland eleven in
the Baltimore Stadium Saturday in
the oath tilt between the State insti-
tuition in series dating back to 1898.
Western Maryland has won three of
the five games since 1928 when the
series was resumed after long lapse
shortly after Dick Harlow put the
Green Terrors on the National foot
ball map.
The Old Liners chances of evening
up with the Harlow-coached teams is
not at all bright, as Maryland, prob
ably a little heavier than the Green
Terrors, will present combination
made up of seven sophomores, three
Juniors and one senior, on the other
hand, the Terror eleven will be mainly
junior combination, properly spiced
with two or three seniors.
However, the Old Liners are not
conceding defeat and even if they do
take the short end of the count, be-
lieve they will play good enough foot
ball to make it interesting for the
Terrors and fans alike.
Maryland's 50-piece band and most
of the Old Line students will be in
the Baltimore Stadium when the
starting whistle blows Saturday at
2:30.

Health Officials
Planning Drive
On Diphtheria
Details To Be Worked Out BY
Medical Society And Health
Department

A drive for the prevention of diph.
liberia is being tentatively planned by
the Montgomery County Health De,
partment, to begin in May 1884. Var.
ious methods will be used to urge par
ents to take their children to Their
physicians for innoculation to protect
them against this disease. The details
of the drive will be worked out by the
County Medical Society and the
Health Department problems Of in
dividual communities.
AS many as possible of the innocu-
lations will be given by practicing
physicians in their own offices, be-
cause this method represents the
most satisfactory form of treatment
If immunization clinics are establish
ed, they will be used only for those
children who, for financial or other
reasons, cannot receive the innocula-
tions from their physicians.
The first step in preparation fol-
this Diphtheria Prevention Drive is
that of preparing a card index of all
children Of Montgomery County OF
pre-school age, so that this can be
used as basis for sending letters
or postal cards to parents urging
this preventive health service. This
index is now being prepared in the
Health Department. While the inten-
sive drive will not begin until next
May, this work is already being car
ried on to considerable extent at the
present time, and all, or practically
all, of the physicians of Montgomery
County have already given these in
noculations to some of the children of
their practice.
AS diphtheria is a much more dah-
gerous disease to the children of pre-
school age than to the school child,
it is im1ortant to give child the in
noculatlSns early in pre-school age,
preferably at 6 to months of age,
rather than to wait until he goes to
school.

ANOTHER HEARING
 ON CORSE ESTATE
Nothing New Presented in Wallace Roberts Claim
 for Compensation
FOR SERVICE RENDERED

Testimony, which was actually a repetition of evidence recorded last Monday at a hearing on tho claim of her father, Wallace Rob- erts, was placed on file today in the hearing On Miss Alicia Rob- erts's petition for $7,0O0 compen- sation for services rendered the late Frank J. Gorse, assistant treasurer of the Scovill Manufac- turing Company. MT Roberts seeks $44,000. MT Gorse, who resided with the Roberts's family for 27 years, died last October, leaving an estate appraised at $1,250.000. He left no will.
 Several hearings have been held in which Mir Roberts and his raughter have claimed that MT Gorse paid only weekly sum for time to time to remember them in his will, fully compensating them for their many kindnesses and for personal services.
 Miss Mae D. Mcclure of Hart ford, friend of the Roberts, tes- tified last Monday and today that she had chatted with MT Gorse several times and he had confided in her his intentions to remember the Roberts. Mrs Bertha Tromm- Ter supplied additional testimony today to the effect that she be- lieved the claims of the Roberts were reasonable. Having spent 31 years in conducting a rooming house or working as g. domestic nurse she feels that she is qualified to speak as an expert on such matters.
 When MT Gorse died. his only brother, Arthur Gorse, claimed the estate. The latter, a resident of Brooklyn. N. Y., died a week ago of complications traced by the authorities to the effects of gas MT Gorse inhaled in an alleged at- tempt at suicide last March.
 More hearings are scheduled on both the claim of MT Roberts and Miss Roberts. Attorney James M. Lynch, Thomas F. McGrath and Walter E. Monagan. are hearing

 Washington, May 26.-(UP)- New talents have been discovered among the White House personnel.
 When Mrs Roosevelt. was coming down for breakfast yesterday she heard sounds of piano music from the east room. The music rose and fell, swinging along in the smart cadence of popular melody.
 Arriving at the entrance to the east room, Mrs Roosevelt saw Gus Gennerich, burly former New York policeman, seated at the great old piano. Gus was so immersed in his music that he did not notice the ments as she stood listening. Gennerich was with MT Roose- welt for four years in the capacity as personal bodyguard to the gov- ernor of New ork. He has now re- tired from the New oYrk city police department on a pension and is assigned to the White House secret service.
 A teacher who knew that the father of one of his pupils was newspaperman called the boy to his desk and whispered, confident ally.
 You passed in Greek. You pass in Latin and you passed in Eng fish composition.
 "How about a pass to the ball gamer"
 The culinary honors in the Hoover administration went to the then Postmaster General Walter F. Brown. In the new administration | it seems to be Silliman Evans. fourth assistant in the department once headed by Brown. Evans, a plump form in chefs clothing, presided in the kitchen at an informal dinner at which beer steins served as place cards. Evans turned out sirloin steaks which won | the approbation of his chief. Post master Farley.
 'T like you cooking" said Farley, "and most of the other things you do around the house."

capacity of winning friendship, MT Mccoy mad no efforts to capitalize sentiments entertained for him. He had no liking for public office, took only a passing interest in politics and preserved his independence of any certain political faction or party. He held membership in two lodges and one civic club, but his friends knew and admired him for his unaffected love of his family and home. He cherished the hap piness of his family circle in which he lived principally.
 The deceased was a natve of Anandale, N. r., the son of the late William and Mary Kelley Me- Coy. He was born in that town on November 2, 1875. With his broth CT, Alvin F. Mccoy. president of the Mccoy, Inc. he came to Wa. terbury in 1888. He was em. ployed for some time with the Waterbury Clock company, but in 1906 he became interested in busi- ness and became associated with the predecessors of the present McCoy's "House of Music" the Fulton Music company and the Fulton, Driggs & Smith company. AAV PA CoSAt ALIIt was lHCOTUOTaIeQ In 1920 an da1so established one of the finest music stores in Hart ford.
 MT Mccoy, strange to say, de- spite his 27 years of activity and affiliations with one of the best known music houses in New Eng land was not musician. He was principally interested in the man. agment and the sales promotion features of the business and through his own initiative and per- sonality achieved unquestioned success and prestige in both en- deavors.
 He was a member of Euclid Lodge, F. & A. M., and Townsend Lodge. I. o. o. F. and the Lions Club. He was a sponsor of many Of Waterbury's outstanding con- certs and aided others immeasur- ably to find enjoyment and hap piness in music
