CITY CODE MAKES
NO MENTION WHERE
CAR TAG BE PLACED

A check of the latest code OF
the City of Wilmington, published
in 1946, revealed last night that
there is no special required place
on an automobile upon which
the city license tag must be
displayed.
Police Lieut.. Jack Moore,
traffic director, was quoted yes
terday as saying that city statutes
require the city tag to be installed
on the front of vehicles.
The wilmington code published
in 1946 states only that the tag
must be placed in a position SC
that it is Clearly visible" at all
times. State statutes, however
prevent the placing of the tag on
the windshield.

NEW YORK, Dec. 19 -R-
Ralph Kiner of the Pittsburgh
Pirates compiled the high

opened Aug. 20 last fall and had
played 18 of its Sc regular
games or about 80 per cent of
it's schedule before the regular
major league baseball season
was over. Although the National
Football league usually waits
until baseball is out of the way
to start it's regular schedule, it
played six in September in ad-
dition to vast number of exhi-
bitions.
College football creeps to-
ward summer by week every
now and then. The 1947 cam

tered fronts as early as Sept. 20.

Basketball has stretched into
early November but as yet has
given no indication that it too

NEW YORK, Dec. 10. -R)--
Footballs unlimited substitution
rule, after a years trial, has earn
ed 2 to 1 favoring vote from
writers, coaches and athletic di-
|rectors answering the annual sea-
son-end poll conducted by The
Associated Press.
Opposition centers around the
old cry of taking the game away
from the boys and the obvious
confusion to spectators of a steady
string of subs running on and off
the field. Both were sounded by
Glenn (Pop) Warner, the veteran
coach.
On the other side of the fence,
Coach Lou Little of Columbia and
hackers of the rule point out that
more boys are given a chance to
play, better football results and
less injuries occur.
With the annual meeting of the
college football coaches organiza-
ton scheduled for New York Jan.
Is, there appears to be little or
ganized opposition to the rule as
it stands.
DR.. Eddie Anderson, Iowa
coach, wants the rule broadened
to allow more than one replace
ment while time is in and coach
Blair Cherry asks permission to
send in three men at once with
out a charged time out.
Confusion about IL men on the
field at the same time may re-
suit in an amendment to the
rule providing that the player
leaving the game obviously is
making an honest effort to hustle

Shortage Of Teachers
Acute, Corning Says

The continuing shortage of teach
ers and the need of new school
buildings are the two most pressing
problems facing the Districts pub
lie schools, School Supt, Hobart M
Corning told members of the Junior
Board of Comerce yesterday.
DR.. Corning said that at present
approximately $50 teachers in the
schools are temporary and that
qualified teachers are not applying
for jobs. Examinations completed
yesterday found only approximately
800 took the tests, he stated. Even
if all qualified, the shortage would
continue, he pointed out.
An estimated $500O0,000 is needed
for new construction to bring the
schools up TO present needs, but
the budget allows only about $4,000
600 a year for construction, he said.
AT this rate our present needs
will be met in Is years and that is
too long to wait" he declared.
DR.. Corning cited the tremendous
increase in the population of Wash
ington and large increase in the
number of babies born here as con-
tiibuting factors to the crisis.
He reminded the group that the
Board of Education was trying to
get a $50,000,0OO loan from Con-
gress to meet the immediate needs
of the school system.
The group met at luncheon at
the Burlington Hotel.

.CIoture May Be Sought
In Senate 10 Limit
Debate on Rail Bill
BY the Assoeioted Press

Republican leaders today consid-
cred application of a seldom used
rule to limit further Senate debate
on the Bulwinkle railroad bill.
The slowly paced discussion OF
the measure now is in its fifth day.
The man who held the floor by
agreement after an overnight re-
cess is Senator Johnston, Democrat,
of South Carolina, who has an
nounced he is ready to talk until
I drop" to defeat the bill
The measure would grant anti
trust law exemption to railroads and
other common carriers who enter
rate making agreements approved
by the Interstate Commerce Com
mission.
May Apply Cloture Rule.
Senator Johnston got only a half
hour warmup yesterday before Ma
jority Leader White suggested the
recess. The South Carolinian's desk
was piled high with speaking ma
terial
Senator Reed, Republican, of
Kansas, sponsor of the bill, and
Senator Taft of Ohio, the Republic
can Policy Committee chairman,
told reporters they might try to
apply the ''cloture" rule unless an
agreement can be reached to vote
early next week
With Congress planning to ad-
journ in late July, every day is crit
ical. Most of the important appro-
priation bills remain to be cleared,
and other legislation such as the
presidential succession bill and the
unif1cation of the armed forces is
on the waiting list.
Two-thirds Vote Needed.
A two thirds majority of the Sen
ate is necessary to apply cloture and
bring the debate to a close. The
filibuster- breaker has been invoked
successfully only four times in 80
years.
If cloture is tried unsuceessfully
there are indications the Bulwinkle
bill will be dropped for this session.
Senator Reed, whose bill is adapt
ed from a measure sponsored last
session by Representative Bull
Wrinkle, Democrat, of North Caro-
lima, contends that railroads have
no other way to get together on
equitable rates.
Senator Johnston told the Senate,
however:
you give me power like this bill
would give the railroads and 1 could
make or break any section of the
United States"

operates, has filed suit to break his

Mr.. Weiner contends the termites
were there before he was, five years

Worrying about the termites and
preparing his case prevented him
from going after the money imme-
diately, he said. But he is deter
mined to get his money back "as
soon as I can possibly get away"
