These experts in the building of
safe highways came to the conclusion
that from now on the greatest saw
ing in life and limb can be accomplish
ed by the education of all drivers of
motor vehicles and the elimination of
habitually reckless, incompetent, or
dangerous drivers from the highways
through extension of the work Of
highway patrols and tightening of
drivers license requirements.
Sessions of the convention brought
out that there are now 26,OOO,OOO mo-
tor vehicles in the United States with
100000 drivers. Last year there
were 827 900 accidents in which $4,000
persons lost their lives, emphasizing
the vital Importance of widespread
public attention to the safety problem,
and those phases of it's solution that
cannot be reached by all the skill of
the best engineers.

2 ACCOMACK WOMEN RE-
OPERATING FROM CRASH

Mrs. Mabel X. Bull and Miss Mar
garet Kellam are recuperating at the
Memorial Hospital, Nassawadox, Va,
of injuries they received when their
automobile was in a collision with
one driven by Horace Bailey, colored.
Mrs. Bull and Miss Kellam were en-
route to their home at Belle Haven
from Exmore about o'clock. In be-
tween the homes of Wade Walker and
Harry Kellam, Bailey pulled his car
from behind a wagon into the path
of their car. When Bailey saw that
he could not get by the wagon, he
tried to run off the side of the road.
The other car was too close for him
to make it and he was hit on his right
side about the middle of the car.
Mrs. Bull received dislocated hip
and fractured knee cap. Miss KEEL
lam had her right arm broken be-
tween the elbow and shoulder, her
face cut and several teeth broken off.
DIR. Burleigh Mears was called and
had them removed to the Memorial
Hospital for treatment. The colored
man was hurt also. After being
treated he was taken to the Jail at
Eastville.

dangerous drivers and as much at
tention is paid to the education Of
motor vehicle operators as is now paid
to educating firemen of stationary
steam boilers.
These conclusions are the result of
the meeting Of Americas highway ex-
perts at the 22nd National Conven-
ton of the American Association Of
State Highway Officials, according
to members from Delaware who re-
turned in the middle of December.
The entire trend of the convention
was toward a greater emphasis of
the drastic need for education of mo-
tor vehicle drivers. This, speakers
and study COMMITTEES agreed, is now
the most immediate need in the ma
tion-wide campaign to cut down the
increasing death and injury toll Of
the highways.
Traffic control devices, safety en-
gineering, better road design, and
all the other mechanical and engi-
neering accomplishments have con-
tributed much toward making the
highways safe, was pointed out, but
even with continued improvement in
this field, which is the continued OBJ
jective Of the Highway Department,
no feat of construction or traffic
control can make any road safe so
long as dangerous driver is permit
ted to careen down the road in an
automobile.
Not reasonable speed, but speed in
improper places and under improp'
err conditions are responsible for &C.
cidents, the convention concluded.

RHODE ISLAND RED
LAYS MAMMOTH EGG

A Rhode Island Red hen owned by
lakewood Poultry farm on Chestnut
Ridge has produced master egg, the
acme of all hen fruit, a mammoth
specimen weighing SEVEN OUNCES.
The hens superlative achievement
was one of a dozen weighing THREE
LBS. presented by the proprietor, Mr..
Vance D. Kopp, to the president OF
The Union News.
Mr.. Kopp, who keeps 1000 Rhode
Island Red and White Leghorn chick
ems on his % acre farm, breeds and
matches his own fowls. 81 feed a
controlled Purina ration" says Mr.
Kopp, "but the ration must have got

The 7-ounce marvel, when opened,
was found to contain another COM
plete egg, of more than average size'
plus two yolks between the inner and
outer shells.

barebail league-a Class D profess
sional loop expected to serve as pro-
ductive farming" area for major and
Glass AA clubs.
Tom Kibler, veteran director of
athletics at Washington College, Ches
tertown, was unanimously elected to
serve as temporary president of the
new circuit, tentatively composed of
Salisbury, Centreville, Crisfield, Dow
er, Del; Pocomoke City, Cambridge,
Easton and fredericksburg.
Although Chstertown was not re-
presented at the meeting there may
be a possibility of this town to en-
ter the league if sufficient interest
and financial backing can be assured.
Joe F. Carr, promotion director for
the National Association of Profess
sional Baseball Leagues, presided.
Carr explained the National Asso-
citation, under which the league would
operate, imposes a salary limit OF
81 900 a month-with minimum OF
S7OO. No club, he said, will be per-
mitted to exceed this limit.
He said he planned minimum OF
six clubs in the loop, which would
play between 100 and 12O games q
season, to run between three and four
months.
Carr estimated each town should
figure on a budget of $500 a season
for expenses. Ogden and Patsy
O'Rourke, representing the Phillies
estimated a working budget of about
$4,000.

The Chesapeake bay bridge project
has enlisted a new recruit-a Della

Representative William F. Allen of
the Diamond State advocates the An

than the span proposed above the

The Delawareans attitude toward
the bridge is interesting inasmuch as
he sponsors it in the light Of link

tern States to the National capital.

Pacific coast league teams faced
new opponents today after pro-
longed series of nine games which
left hurting staffs riddled but made
no major changes in the standing
of the clubs.
Sacramento remained in first
place, one and one half games a.
head of the Seals. Both leaders,
however, lost ground last week to
San Diego. which moved TO within
one game of the second plaeers and
two and one half games TO the top
Portland handed Sacramento one
of its rare series defeats by taking
five of the eght gaines tie teams
played. The clubs split the Monday
doubleheader, with Ad Iiska hurl-
ing Portland to a 1912 win in the
opener and Tony Frietas, southpaw
veteran, tossing a. 4-3 victory for
Sacramento in the Tindup.
San Francisco dropped two to
the Missions in the holiday bargain
bill but the Seals grabbed the series,
five to four, by winning the first
four games. The Missions slammed
Bob Cole and Manager Lefty
O'Doul around in tie opener for
an l1-2 victory. In the second game
the Missions combined five hits in
the third to score five times and
beat Sam Gibson, Seal ace, 5-2.
Oakland cleaned up on Seattle
twice to register the most decisive
series win of the week, seven to
two. Bill Miller and Al Piechota
hurled the Oaks holiday wins,
Miller taking the first IA and
Piechota the second 5-4.

Among them will be President

ball.
A stormy debate has been in pro.
gress ever since the % players were
selected oy the two managers for
the rival teams. 1t centers around
William Harold Terry, pilot of the
National leaguers.
This game is really a battle OF
wits between Terry and the Ameri-
can league. Terry hand-picked his
squad, without seriously consulting
other National league managers.
I'm going to play this one to
win it, said Terry, who failed in
1894 as pilot OF the National
leaguers. u picked the players CO.
ing the best right now and I'm
satisfied with my selections"
The big argument over Terry's
picks concerned third base, where
he named Arky Vaughan, Pittsburgh
shortstop. instead of Pinky Whitney
of the Phils who is batting .36l,
or Stan Hack, Cubs.
Even with Terry's high powered
squad the American league, man.
aged by Joe Mccarthy of the Yanks
is the betting favorite. Jack Doyle
quotes the American league a 7-l0
favorite.
The opening pitchers are almost
certain to be Mungo of the Nation

! finally put Wieland in his place
with a deft poke-enecK ana turned
on Ross who was over in the corner
trying to explain to Mrs. Ross why
he had asked me out there.
Mister Ross" 1 said, why don't
you hockey people speed up your
game by using one man less or by
widening the playing surface?"
I'VE have thought about that"
Ross replied, because ii would save
us five or six thousand dollars a
year. That's what we pay the aver
age player, We decided not do 1t
when common sense told us that
it would ruin the game"
Far be il from me even with
seven lemOnades under my waist
coat to dispute Arthur Jerusalem
Ross. one of the greatest players
and managers the sport ever
knew. But l did ask him one
more question and the question
was this:
I'm all your years i'm hockey
who was the greatest player you
ever saw on skates?"
The man didn't even think a
total of One-half second. He just
sort of gave a look as if to say
don't you know" and replied:
"ShOre. Eddie Shore. He could
do everything just a little bit bet
ter than anybody else"
AT this point desire to launch a
canoe struck me without warning.
And, an honest confession being
good for the soul the next thing
knew I was Adams apple deep in
Massachusetts, Bay. No one thought
anything about it until they noticed
that I had no canoe and was fully
dressed.
I was in the vicious arms of an
undertow and might well have been
carried off the grand banks had
not a beachcomber named A. Linde

rescued me.

HORTON SMITH
LEADS FIELD
IN GOLF OPEN

CARNOUSTIE, Scotland, July c
tU.p-Scoring a second successive
subpar 60, Horton Smith, tall
sharpshooter from Chicago led the
field today in the qualifying rounds
of the British open championship.
His 1896 at Burnside today after
his brilliant 60 at Caroustie gave
him an aggregate of 1873.
Smith, the man who was SO far
off form before last weeks Ryder
cup play that he was left out of the
United States team, today made the
Burnside layout look easy. He had
no long putt to sink in the entire
round. His only trouble came at
the l4th where he had a bad lie
after his drive and barely moved
the ball with his second shot.
The other American players were
having no difficulty in qualifying
for the ~ holes of the tourney pro-
per which starts tomorrow. Gene
Sarazen had II for l4l. Sam
Snead had 70 for 142, matched by
Byron Nelson who today scored a
IL. Ralph Guldahl Ed Dudley and
Joe Kirkwood were grouped at 144.
Denny Shute had Jag, and Charley
Lacey lat. .
Most of the British aces were
within the possible qualifications
limit of 1853, although Alt Padgham,
the defending champion, gave a
hint that he might be forced to
relinquish his crown by following
a miserable 78 with a casual IA for
152. ..

GERMAN WINS
$4,000 FOR 1ST
IN DARING RACE

WESTBURY, NY, July W.P)-
There wasn't a snicker at the AL
pine hats or the Bavarian shorts of
Bernd Rosemeyer today as the
blonde, affable German stepped up
to claim a check. for S20,000-first
prize for his daring victory in the
second Vanderbilt cup race.
Those oddities were forgotten by
a horde OF 10000 persons who Jam
med Roosevelt Raceway ana saw
the "Rhineland Rocket dominate
an international field of the finest
drivers and the speediest racing
machines in the world :,
Rosemeyer, at times flashingV
down the straightaways from $50
to l8O miles an hour, finished the
30O mile grind-90 laps around the
s l-3 mile course-in three hours
and so minutes for an average of
S2.564 miles per hour. His 16 cylin-
der silver Auto Union roared across
the finish line 81 seconds ahead of
the Mercedes driven by Dick Sea-
man OF England VINO TOOK second
place check of $4,000.
While Rosemeyer and Seaman
took the biggest cut of the swag,
the able driving of Rex Mays, "a
year-Old Californian from Glen
dale, was one of the high spots of
the race. Mays, in reconditioned
Alta Romeo called BoWes Sealfast
Special, finished third, less than
six minutes behind Seaman with
an average of 80l44 M.PH. Mays
never hit more than 139 MPH. on
the straight stretches, some 20 miles
less than the powerful cars of his
European opponents. Yet, his driv-
ing ON the seven turns, made up
more than II miles of that handi-
cap. He took third prize of $4,000
and an additional $2500 for the
first American driver to finish.
