DISPLAY NEW
HOME FREEZERS
Wilson Company Display New
Models at Exposition in
Atlantic City
USE COLOR ON CABINETS

Last week at the 9Th All-Indus-
try Refrigeration and Air Condi-
tioning Exposition held in Atlantic
City, Wilson Refrigeration, Inc, of
Smyrna, announced and displayed
their new 1850 home and farm
freezer models. On display for the
first time was new 80 cubic foot
self-contained freezer model F-300
incorporating many new engineer
ing and design features including
the use of color on the cabinet ex-
terror and interior. Also on display
was newly designed sectional 80
cubic foot freezer model FF300 also
incorporating many new and un-
usual features. Refrigeration deal
ers and distributors from all over
the country were very enthusiastic
about the new products and many
expressed the opinion that they
were the best designed and most
attractive freezers they had ever
seen. Wilson officials who attended
the Exposition were very much
pleased with the reaction to their
new products, which indicates a
substantial increase in freezer pro-
duction for 1850. Wilson also dis
played their well-known milk cool
ers, the "Zero-Flow' and the new
front opening milk cooler, the
"zero-Spray." They announced that
their 1850 line will include three
different types of milk coolers
ranging in size from 2 can to "a
can capacity, and both chest and
upright type freezers ranging in
size from 8 cubic feet to 120 cubic
feet. They will also continue to
build walk-in refrigerators. A large
number of Wilson officials and ad-
ministrative personnel attended
the show, including John e. Wilson,
Jr., president, and Aubrey A. Dav-
is, vice president in charge of sales,
who managed the display.

DIR. CARLSON
TOLEAVE u OF d
Announces His Resignation
To Become President of
University of Vermont
EFFECTIVE APRIL 1ST

DR.. William S. Carlson, president
of the University of Delaware, has
announced his resignation, effective
next April 1, to become president
of the University of Vermont. He
said that opportunity for profess
sional advancement offered in his
new position had overcome his re-
luctance to leave the Delaware post
he has occupied since July 1, 1916.
II feel that we have started much
that is worthwhile at the postwar
University of Delaware, while car
rying on the university's best ira
ditions," DR.. Carlson said. 81 re-
gret that I will not be here, save
in spirit, to aid in the completion
of many of these programs" Elias
Lyman, acting president and a
trustee of the University of YER
mont, said that in their search for
a president, the trustees had been
attracted to DR.. Carlson by quail
tiles manifested in an environment
similar to our own, especially in
student and faculty leadership, and
in the essential humanness of the
man." At Vermont, DR.. Carlson
will be the head of a university
with student body of about 5000
and a faculty of some 300, about
so per cent larger in each case than
the University of Delaware. Found
ed in 1871, Vermont is the oldest
state university. 1t includes Col
lege of Medicine, the State Agri-
cultural College, and colleges or
schools of arts, technology, educa-
tion and nursing. The university's
annual budget is nearly $4,000,000.
Dr. Car1son's administration at
Delaware has conceded almost ex-
actly with the university's postwar
surge in size and services. From g.
pre-war maximum of $50 students
and fewer than 500 after vi Day,
the university. rebounded to 100
at DIR. Carlson's arrival, and each
fall since then it has increased to
new record highs. The 1949 enroll
ment was 2215 undergraduates,
plus AIS graduate students, 1000 in
extension courses, and 100 who
studied in the last summer school.

dating quantity without loss of

Kitten Taken From S0-Foot Well
At Home On Upham Street


The Smyrna firemen have been
called often to remove a cat from
a tall tree but never until Monday
had they been asked to get a cat
out of a deep well. They were
called to the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
William H. Percival, South Upham
Street, at the western edge of
town, after a kitten had fallen
down a 30-foot well, and had been
crying during the night. Apparent
ly perched on a ledge, the wet
scared creature was brought to the
surface with the use of a grabbing
net brought by Chief of Police John
w. Jacobs, Jr. Members of the po-
lice force and the town mainten-
ance crew assisted the firemen,

SPEAKER AT
LIONS MEET
Capt. Carl Schnetter, Criminal
Division, State Police Tells
of Adventure
SPONSOR BAKE DEC. 3

A fascinating tale of adventure
was told the members of the
Smyrna Lions Club by Capt. Carl
Schnetter, criminal division, Del
aware State Police, who was a
member of an expedition made by
Sir Hubert wilkins to the North
Pole by submarine in 1881. Speak
ing at the meeting of the club at
The Colonial Hotel on Monday
night, Capt. Schnetter, after trac-
ing the background of the first
submarines made by Simon Lake,
told of the experience of the men
who set out from this country in
a submarine which had been laid
by for some years in the Navy
Yard, Philadelphia, and of the
motor trouble in the Atlantic, of
rescue by battleships off the coast
of France, being towed to England,
and of reaching Norway two
months behind schedule to start
the real adventure in Artic waters.
The purpose of the trip was for
scientific study which included use
of the sonic depth finder, the chart
ing of an underground mountain
range between Spitzbergen and
Greenland, terrestrial magnetism,
the study of animal life of the sea,
temperature taking to determine
the course of the Gulf Stream. He
told of travel under the ice, and
through open leads, of the Nautilus
being out of touch with the outside
world, when they could hear the
voice of Lowell Thomas but could
not be heard themselves. Finally
the submarine was declared unfit
for duty and the expedition dis
banded in England. The hazards
of the trip were justified by the
knowledge that the only way to
make the necessary studies is by
submarine, and he predicted the
day that the boats would go up
under the North Pole and proceed
down the west coast. Many still
photographs of the expedition were
shown. The speaker was introduced
by c. Preston Poore and the re-
sponse was made by Burrill Nc
Coy. w. G. Roe, Jr., once a MEM
ber of the club, rejoined and Walter
Eley was welcomed as new MEM
ber. Guests were Harley Bodley
and Frank Siekmann. Stanley Mid
dleton, presiding, announced that
the December visiting committee
includes Lester Meyer, Davis
Turner, Clarence Collins, and How
ard Slaughter. The invocation was
given by Robert Dunning. A bake
will be sponsored by the Lions on
Saturday, December 8, with Mrs.
Henry T. Price as chairman. The
speaker at the meeting of Monday,
December 5 will be Stanley Ross,
editor and publisher of the Sunday
Star.
