MISS EVA FRY INJURED

Three Delaware folks of Green
wood, Sussex County, were killed
and one, a nurse in the Kent Gen.
eral Hospital, Dover, injured, in an
automobile accident while return
ing from a motor trip in the South.
The accident occurred at Ridgeland,

stantly killed and S. C. Smith, II,
also of Greenwood, who died in a
Ridgeland hospital the next day.
Miss Eva Fry, a nurse at the Kent
General Hospital, Dover, who was
with her parents on the trip, is
still in a serious condition at the
Ridgeland hospital. The automo-
bile in which the three were return
ing from Miami, crashed head-on
into a motor truck. Ernest Nc
ClOuQ or SummerV1lle, >. T., Oper-
ator of the truck, was absolved of
blame by a coroner's jury. He was
slightly injured. Jasper County Of
ficers of South Carolina, said the
head-on collision, which occurred
about $50 a. m, was probably due
to a heavy mist that reduced visi-
bility. The Delaware automobile
was coming north. Mr.. Fry was
90 years old, and a painter. He
lived in Greenwood for many years.
He and his wife came from Eng
land. The Smith youth was the

REHOBOTH FIRST TO ASK

Bills to create at least 38 more
election districts to relieve conges-
tion due to heavy registration are
expected to be presented to the
General Assembly. There are now
249 districts. Bruce Tappan of Re-
hoboth Beach already is circulating
a petition for an extra polling place
and has obtained 500 signatures.
1t would be known as the Fourth
Election District of the Tenth Rep
resentative District of Sussex
County. Civic leaders of other
communities, it is reported, are
planning similar petitions. In many
districts, especially those in which
more than 800 persons voted, there
has been congestion. This was es-
pecially true of Georgetown, the
Ninth Representative District, and
Milton, the First Election District
of the Tenth Representative Dis
trict, both in Sussex. OF the 38
districts with more than 800 votes,
18 are in the % Sussex districts,
nine are in Kent, and IL in New

fortunate last election in having no
district with as many as 300 vot-
ing, although some came close to
it. The Department Of Elections
had added five districts to the city.

LEWES MAYOR
TAKES A WALK"
David w. Burbage Declares
New Town Commissioners
Illegally Elected
NEW BOARD ORGANIZES

Mayor David w. Burbage Mon
day night walked out" on the
three new town commissioners,
elected at Saturdays election, and
gave notice that he would not rec
ognize them and may demand a
new election because, re contended
they were sitting Illegally. The
new commissioners, Frank S. Car
ter, ]. Orton Marshall and John
w. Hooker, Jr., however, proceed
ed to organize while the mayor and
the hold-over member, T. r. Ryan,
sat on the sidelines. Mr.. Ryan an
nounced that he would not take
sides in the controversy. Mayor
Burbage, who opposed the candi-
dacies of the new members, based
his refusal to recognize their GER
tifcates of election on the grounds
that they had not been formally
registered in the town book of GER
tification and, therefore, were not
eligible to sit on the commission.
The new commissioners, in turn,
said that the mayor had refused to
produce the book when requested
to do so by Magistrate James P.
Lank, the judge of election. After
a conference failed to change the
situation, Magistrate Lank issued
the certificates of certification.
Mayor Burbage called the commits
sion meeting to order but notified
Messrs. Carter, Marshall and Hook
er that he would not recognize
them as commissioners. The three,
however, refused to depart and the
mayor left the chair. The commits
sioners then proceeded with the
meeting by electing Mr.. Hooker
temporary chairman. Gilbert Coop
er was unanimously re-appointed
secretary, Tunnel and Tunnel of
Georgetown, were named town at
torneys, and John c. Millman was
again appointed chief of police.
Loda Wilson also was renamed
road supervisor With the new
commissioners announcing that
they intend to serve, regardless of
the mayors attitude, and with the
town executive equally insistent
that he will not recognize them Of
ficially, Lewes residents are now

gram over a national radio chain,

there was no need to cruise to dis
tant lands to look for buried treas
ure as, according to legend, sub
stantiated in part by records, trea-
sure is in wreckage of old vessels

counted the story of the DeBraak

cargo of gold, silver, and diamonds.
He also told of Captain Kidd, pir-
ate, making Lewes his first port
and the legend of his having buried
treasure on the east side of the
great dunes.
