Yard Under Civilian
Contract.

The Navy will soon salvage the
MORO Castle of Asbury Park. N. j
by civilian contract, and inspect her
at the Brooklyn Navy Yard, Secre-

The hulk will be towed to the
Brooklyn yard and there inspected to
determine its possible use as a naval
auxiliary. The job will be done by
the firm Of Merritt. Chapman & Scott.
The Secretary said that if the YES
sci was found suitable. she will be
altered as a submarine tender or air
craft tender. He made it clear that
the craft will not become an aircraft
carrier.
The Public Works Administration
has allocated s18o,00o to the Navy
for salvaging operations. Rear Ad-
miral George c. Day. president OF the
Navy Board of Inspection and Sur
vey, and his colleagues inspected the
craft and recommended to the serv-

HEAD OF EDUCATION
ASSUMES DUTIES
Commissioner John Ward Stude-
baker Was Named Success
sor to DR.. Zook.

John Ward Studebaker, newly ap-
pointed commissioner of education, has
taken over his new duties as successor
to DR.. George F. zook.
A severe illness prevented him from
coming to Washington on September
/, when he was supposed to have
started on his new career. For many
years Commissioner Studebaker had
been superintendent of schools Of Des
Moines, Iowa. He was appointed early
last Summer by Secretary of the In
terror Ickes.
The school system of Des Moines.
under Strldebaker. had long served as
a model in the United States. One Of
his reforms was q public forum. an
experiment in community wide adult
education which attracted Nationwide
attention. He organized a compre-
hensive health program and special
classes for children slow to learn. The
Smouse Opportunity School for physi-
ca1ly handicapped children was
pioneer In this field and it reduced the
per capita pupil instruction cost by
more than 20 per cent.
Miss Bess GoodykoontZ has been
acting commissioner Of education since
July, when DR.. zook left to become
director Of the AZ erican Council for
Education.

weeks.
The local chapter of the Elks had
elected him as delegate to the ma
tional convention at Chicago. He had
wanted to take Claire along, but the
other delegates declared their inten-
ton of lone wolfng" it.
The thought of being away from
her, even for two weeks, made him
uncomfortable. The alteration he
showered on her hadn't dimmed
And the tears glistening in her eyes,
he felt with thrilling tug at his
heart, were for him; tears that meant
the parting was as dtficult for her as
it was for him.
Then he remembered the letters
Claire had written him before they
were married. Fat letters, they were,
almost like an intimate talk. And
now, while they were apart. she would
write him one of those fat letters every
day.
The train began to move. He
kissed Claire full on the lips. She
chung to him, moved along as the
train started.
Don't forget" he called. as the
train bore him away. Write to me
every day-a big. long letter. III be
at the Palmer House" He saw her
handkerchief f1utter as she waved.
Then the train rounded curve, swal-
lowed her from view.
1t was the fifth day Of the conven-
ton. Chane paced nervously the
length of the lobby. He hadn't
thought anything about it when there
wasn't any mail for MIN the first two
days. 1t was the third day he felt dis
turbed.
He consoled himself with the
thought that maybe she had been en-
tertaining friends and that she hadn't
found time to write. The morrow
would bring letter, surely.
That day came and went, and no
letter. Here 1t was the fifth day. and
still no letter. A number Of possibil-
tiles flashed through his mind. She
might have been hit by a car and
seriously injured; maybe she couldn'
write. Or she might have been taken
sick.
On second and saner thought, both
possibilities seemed absurd.
What, then, was wrong?
He thought of Jimmy Woodaf
Jimmy had been his chief rival for
Claire. Was he back and taking ad-
vantage Of the temporary separation?
Even as he thought it Chane knew
the suspicion was unfair.
Jimmy had accepted Claire's de-
cision gracefully. And as for Claire
slim and straight, full of laughter,
but serious and four-square beneath
the gayety-she was not one to re-
| sort to subterfuge.
Almost subconsciously he was by
the clerks desk again. He had for

came every day.
On the impulse Of the moment he
began to toss ties, shirts and pyjamas
into his travelling bag. I'm going
home" he decided impetuously.
Something was wrong Or he would
have had letter before this.
1t was nearly midnight when he
walked up the familiar path to the
little bungalow where Claire had made
a paradise for him the last 10 months.
A light was burning to greet him.
He let himself in with his latch
key. Then he stopped in bewilder-
ment. The floor was strewn with
crumpled sheets of writing paper. At
the table sat Claire, a pen in her hand.
blank sheet Of paper before her.
"Oh," she gasped. in startled sur.
prise when the door opened. Then.
when she saw who it was; she came
to life, rushed into Chane's arms.
murmuring: Darling, it's you" It
was as if she couldn't believe her eyes.
Then it came to her how the Uttered
floor must look. And while he hadn't
said so, Chane must have come back
because she hadn't written to him.
I've a confession to make" she
blurted out.
Chane blinked his surprise Have
you been flirting with the ice man?"
He tried to talk lightly, but he felt
uneasy.
Its about those letters I wrote you
before we were married" Claire ex-
planned. II didn't really write
them. A girl I chummed with wrote
them. She just couldn't get trigo-
nometry through her head. I used
to do Ter trig for her. and she wrote
my letters for me. just can't write
a letter"
Al light dawned on Chane.
Babe Ruth, Lou Gehrig and a lot
of others have ghost writers do their
articles for them. So you had this
girl ghost write your letters. And
you did her trig. in return"
Claire nodded her head.
ST started about four dozen letters
to you while you were gone, but they
never sounded right after sentence
or two"
Chane looked at the paper-strewn
floor, took her in his arms.
You poor darling"
