School bells rang out today
for some 114,OOO boys and girls
in Washington, Montgomery
County and Arlington County.
Registration figures were not
available Immediately, but expected
enrollments we're: District, $4,000;
Montgomery County, $1,000, and
Arlington County, 10000. In each
case, an increase in enrolment over
last September was anticipated.
With these openings today, all
public schools in the Washington
area will be in session. Schools III
Prince Georges and Fairfax Counties
and in Alexandria opened last week.
Also opening today were the six
schools operated by the Seventh-day
Adventist Church in the Metropoli-
tan Area.
Accurate Estimate Delayed.
In the District, uncertainty as to
how many nonresident students
will return to school now that they
must pay tuition prevented an ac-
curate prediction of enrolment.
School Superintendent Hobart M.
Corning said enrolment probably
will exceed last years total, but said
he could not be more definite than
that.
He did say that some 1000 more
elementary children we're expected
to enroll than last year, however.
Evidence that enrolment in the
kindergarten and first grades was
on the increase was apparent at the
Logan Elementary School, Third
and G streets NE, where halls
were jammed with parents trying to
enroll their children.
Mrs. Catherine L. Pinkett, princi-
pal, said that it looked as if enroll
ment would go up to more than 900
before the day was over. Last year
it was about 700. The school elm
mated part-time classes last year,
but return to the part-time ap-
peared inevitable, Mrs. Pinkett said
1900 on Part Time Last Year.
Logan was one of 18 elementary
schools which found enrolment this
morning so large that part-time
classes must be set-up.
Eleven other colored grade schools
were forced to hold part-time classes
last year. School officials were ex-
pecting those II to be on part
time again this year, but said not
too much of an increase in part
time classes was expected in the
colored schools right away" Last
year more than 1900 boys and girls
were on part time.
BY the time registration is COM
pleted, however, this picture may
change.
Last year, five white elementary
schools were on part time. Stanton
Elementary School is planning to
hold part-time classes in the first
grades because of increasing en-
rollment to bring this total to six
this year. More than 1000 children

ALBANY, Sept. 13.-Gov. Dew
ey was told today he has a good
chance of carrying Tennessee by
Carroll Reece, the Republican
candidate for the Senate in that
State this year against Demo-
cratic Representative Kefauver.
Tennessee leaves the Democratic
fold only when there is national
landslide, or other unusual situa-
ton, such as the two-way split that
caused Henry Wallace to start the
Progressive Party, while the deep
South started an independent
States. Rights movement.
Mr.. Reece. former chairman of
the Republican National Committee,
was asked if he expected any sup
port in the Senate race from Mayor
Crump, Democratic leader of Mem
.phis.
That question has neither been
asked nor answered in Tennessee, u
Mr.. Reece replied with smile.
Must Have Some Help.
He conceded a few minutes later,
however that to carry Tennessee
the Republicans either must win
over some Democratic voters or
benefit from a stay-at-home trend
among Democrats on Election Day.
Representative Kefauver won the
Democratic senatorial nomination
by defeating not only the incumbent,
Senator Stewart, but also the candi-
date backed by Mr.. Crump.
Mr.. Reece charged in news con-
ference here today that Mr.. Ke-
fauver has been following radical
ideologies."
Meanwhile, Gov. Dewey turned
one eye toward Maine today to see
If the figures in that States early
general election bear out advance
predictions of a Republican trend

Size of Vote important.
The rockribbed Pine Tree State
never departed from its Republican
moorings, even at the height OF
Franklin D. Roosevelt's popularity.
But the Dewey camp is awaiting
with interest the size OF the vote

victory might be straw in the
wind as to how the rest OF the
country will vote in November.
The old saying, "As Maine goes,
so goes the Nation" lost its mean

wears the Nation went one way and
Maine went the other. This year

Army Investigator
Missing in This Area
For 4 Days Sought

Washington police and Army in
telligence Joined today in search
for an Army investigator missing
from this area for four days.
An agent OF the Criminal Investi-
cation Division, Russell v. Harper,
35, of San Bernardino, Calf, may
have met with foul play, the Army
said in an Eastern State lookout
broadcast from Army barracks,
Carlisle, Pa.
Mr.. Harper was attached to this
unit, but in recent days had been
working on case in the vicinity
of Petersburg, Va, under an as
signment out of Camp Lee, Va.
The agent had not contacted his
superior, Capt. Paul Logan, chief
agent at Carlisle, since last Sunday,
although usual practice calls for
daily communication.
Washington police were particu-
larly vigilant because Mr.. Harper
carried, probably as part OF an as

The Carlisle CID office refused
to say what case Mr.. Harper was
on, but placed no particular sig
f1cance on the fact he was sportily
attired in the manner of q race

He served as a Marine during the
war and spoke japanese fluently.
He was described as 6 feet 2 inches

II. :. Eliot Criticizes
Poe as: Misuser Of
Words in Talk Here

Thomas Stearns Eliot spoke from
the platform Of the Coolidge Audi
torium at the Library Of Congress
last night for the first time, and
proceeded to say some things that
made admirers of Edgar Allan Poe
squirm in their seats.
The distinguished American-born
English poet and critic said Poe is
an author we read when young but
rarely 80 back to when We mature.
+, Poe Is the author Of a very few
short poems which enchant the
reader as q boy and which some
how stick in the mind," Mr.. Eliot
said. THE readers appreciation is
the memory Of enjoyment which
he seems to recapture."
Referring to the American poet

as q minor or secondary follower
of the English romantic movement" "
the speaker asserted that in "his
efforts to get the right sound Poe
is not always careful to see that it
had the right sense"
In the poem 'Ulalume," Mr.. Eliot
said the word "immemorial" was
misused. Citing dictionary mean
ings defining the word as extend.
ing beyond the reach of memory,
record or tradition; indefinitely
ancient" the speaker asserted Poe
gave the word an almost opposite
meaning. The critic also declared
the poets description of the raven
in the poem of that name as saint
ly" was incorrect, observing "the
raven is not sanity, rather the
reverse"
But Mr.. Eliot, who received the
1948 Nobel Prize in Literature this
month, was listened to by an audi
ence that appeared intent on catch
ing every word he uttered. The

Friend of Farmers

Despite the general contempt in
which it is held, the skunk is an ami
NAL whom farmers may regard as
their friend. 1t is quite useful be-
cause it eats many mice, grubs,
beetles, potato bugs, grasshoppers
and other pests. When left alone the
skunk is non-aggressive. A person
can pick up a skunk without danger,
if he knows just how. The great
horned owl does this, and bobcats
and foxes prey upon it.

Herman j.. Englehard, rs, a painter and decorator, of Chicago, III. Mr..
Englehard was well known in his own community for his Kindness to
