REPORT CASES
CHICKEN POX
Seventeen New Cases Report
ed to State Board of Health
Last Week
17O CASES THIS YEAR

Seventeen new cases of chicken
pox were reported to the Vital Sta
tistics Division of the State Board
of Health last week, bringing the
total number of cases thus far this
year to 10. Wilmington has re-
ported SO cases of the disease to
date, New Castle County, exclud-
ing Wilmington, 81, Kent County
6, and Sussex County IA. Last year
during this same period only 107
cases of chicken pox were re-
corded.
Chicken pox is highly contag-
ious childhood disease and is most
common during the winter and
spring months, warns the State
Board of Health. All young child
rem are susceptible to the disease
and usually contract it on the first
exposure. Chicken pox is most con-
tagious "a hours before the char
acteristic rash develops and about
6 days after the rash appears.
Those persons who are susceptible
and have been exposed to the dis
ease will most likely show symp-
toms of infection about 13 days
later.
Although practically every child
who comes in contact with chicken
pox catches it if they have not had
it previously, it fortunately is US
ually a mild disease for children.
However, chicken pox can be sew
ere in infants and adults, and a
complication such as secondary in
fection, may lead to septicemia or
pneumonia. But even if the case is
mild, health officials say children
should be isolated from others and

$2O5,OOO STAKE
AT DEL. PARK
To Feature Five Stake Races
at S25,000 or More; Two
Jumping Handicaps
TO OPEN MAY 2S

Delaware Parks stake dates,
which were announced recently by
Racing Secretary ]. Gilbert Haus,
show that the track again will
open with the $4,000 added Will
mington Handicap for sprinters on
Saturday, May 28. There will be Is
stakes on the program, which also
will run through June and early
July. Total stake money is $685.
900. OF course, this stake money
outlay is only fraction of Della
ware Parks total distribution, but
the purses have not yet been cal
culated. The 1949 stake figures
are $4,000 higher than a year ago
due to the custom of annually in
creasing the two rich futurity
events by $500 each. It is esti-
mated by Haus that the Leonard
Richards Stakes, which is exclu-
sively for three-year-olds, will
gross approximately $28,000. and
will be the richest event OF the
meeting. The other futurity race,
the Delaware Oaks, for three-year-
old fillies. will gross approximately
$27 800, thus closely rivalling the
Leonard Richards in value.
Delaware Park, of course, re-
tains in addition, its three $25, 900
features, the Kent, New Castle
and Sussex, each of which has been
named for one of Delaware's three
counties. This makes five stake
races each of them at $4,000 or
more.
While Delaware Parks minimum
stake value is $4,000, there are
two exceptions where the added
money is established by the Ma
tional Steeplechase and Hunt AS
sociation. These two events are the
three-ply jumping races, National
Maiden Hurdles, and Spring Maid
en- Steeplechase. The purse in each
is $4,000. The Maiden Hurdles is
run in conjunction with Belmont,
and the third leg is run at Della
ware. Jumping will begin at Del
aware Park on June IA, with the
third running of the $4,000 Tom
Roby, unique event wherein the
trophy goes to the winning jockey.
Minimum stake value so far as
Delaware Park is concerned, is
$4,000, and at that figure there
will be eight stakes, the Whining
ton Handicap, for three-year-olds
and upward, six furlongs; the
Brandywine Handicap, three-year-
olds and upward, one mile and a
sixteenth; the Polly Drummond
Stakes, two-year-old fillies, five
furlongs; Tom Roby Steeplechase
Stakes, four-year-olds and upward,
about two miles; the Christiana
Stakes, two-year-olds, five and a
half furlongs; the Georgetown
Steeplechase Handicap, four-year
olds and upward, about two miles,
and the Indian River Steeplechase
Handicap, four-year-olds and up
ward, about two and half miles.

Mr.. ISadore Moscovitz, Editor

Dear Mr.. Moscovitz:
At the suggestion of our repre-
sentative, Mr.. Jay Wiseman, who
had an interesting interview with
you at the Zionist Convention re-
Gently in Atlanta, l am sending
you herewith some literature per-
tanning to the Weizmann Institute
of Science.
The Weizmann Institute of
Science at RehoVoth is making a
most vital contribution to the Sc
curity and independence of Israel
by making possible the develop
ment of the country's industry
and agriculture and, thus, ex-
panding the absorptive capacity
of the land. The enclosed re-
print of an article by Maurice
Hindus will tell you more about
the Institutes activities.
1 sincerely hope that you will
find this material helpful to you.
With every good wish,

Editor, Southern Jewish Weekly

Dear Mr.. Moscovitz:
Having the privilege to be in
israel on Zionist mission and
visit, and sitting on the terrace
OF this beautiful modern and
brand new hotel, l can't help but
remember what Palestine looked
like in 1920 and 1921 during
which two years I worked in
Rehovot and Migdal.
Seeing the terrific and wonder
full development of Israel, l re-
allze how helpful you have been
as a Life Member of the Zionist
Organization of America in bring
ing this about. Please take this
letter as a heartfelt thank you"
for the wonderful assistance you
have given to the movement, to
this remarkable new country and
to me in my work.
Another observation one can't
help but make while in Israel is
the tremendous need for the con-
tinued efforts of the Zionist Or
ganization of America. AS wond-
erful as the start of Israel has
been, unbelievable work will
have to be done in the future to
Solldify this work and amongst
the greatest needs is the influence
and helpfulness of the Jewry Of
the United States. Just as the
whole of western Europe is in
need of an understanding and
generous U. S. A., so is Israel in
need of an understanding and
generous JeWry in the U. S. A..
The public influence alone which
we in America can exercise is of
tremendous Importance.
And so, although this is a sin
cere greeting and again a heart
felt thank you, it also is an appeal
to continue the good work you
have been doing and to bring in
as many Life Members as human
ly possible. 1t is wonderful to
walk on the ground which is
owned by this country and which
has been purchased through your
Life Membership payment.
Sincerely yours,

superior invaders drove out the SYrans and captured
city OF Jerusalem. The Temple rededcated the 25th

Today like the of Mattathias of DID, the modern
Sraes are seeking to make Jerusalem their capital The
new city OF Jerusalem which has almost all of its people of

heritage of undyng devotion to the land and mpershabe

Now for those who have been
interested in our solid cat, Jerry
let us paint another picture in his
colorful career. Jerry was a cat
who pretend to be an atheist al
though in his heart he was afraid
of God. His supreme egoism and
egotism drove him on toward
wickedness, and he was slowly be-
ing destroyed.
His wife, Audrey recognizig
his weakness had kept him
level headed, but others used
him for their selfish ends.
In his youth, he had known ex-
IRENE poverty, and he lived in
great fear of becoming poor again
This helped to control his action.
A woman cf strong intuition,
Mrs. Jerry had warned him and
guided him and he had received
great inspiration from her. One Of
his letters to her read.
you have been every inspira-
ton. Without you I could not go
on. You are my life, my strength
my all. :.
And another one read:
All I have become, whatever
success, whatever that is good
is yours, my wife i am yours,
passionately, Intellectually and
in every way. $50
But Jerry was a snake. When
he reached al position of affluence
he began to mistreat his wife, 1t
irked him to remember that she
knew him when he Was poor. 1t
hurt his pride that she had help
ed him. Instead Of living grateful
he wanted to crush her because
she knew too much about him.
He resented the fact that his
wife had been "born with a silver
spoon in her mouth" and he wan
ted to make her suffer- He Wan
ted her to be hungry, and to know
poverty as he had known it when
he was young. A strong sense of
inferiority drove him to attempt
to destroy her because Of her
superiority. Not creative, not
brilliant, merely a stealer and
assembler of ideas and a hard
worker, he took the ideas Of
others and enlarged upon them
until he became known as an
'idea man..
He created the illusion Of brill
lance until everyone spoke of him
as the brilliant Jerry until they
began to realize that he was real
ly dumb - merely lucky, crooked
and good at making contacts. He

kicked the little man unless the

fered serious head injuries. The
police was determined not to tole-
rate it either. James had to go
to court as a delinquent. His
father thought the experience
would be an excellent example Tor
the boy, one he would never for
get. With this in mind, he didn't
raise finger in James defense.
Rather, he alluded that it might
be a good thing if he was sent to
reform school for awhile. 1t would
serve to prove to James, as we'll as
other young boys his age, that re-
gardless Of what they did in order
! to feel big, they were still very
small and very insignificant, when
A., it came to taking the law into their
own hands, or attempting to live
in manners to which they are not
accustomed.
This time the judge was lenient.
He only gave James six months.
In a month or two (f he behaved
hinse1f) he'd be home again. Next
time he'd get a year. After that,
we'll, it all depended upon the
seriousness of his offense.
James made up his mind before
leaving the court room that he'd
never forgive his father. To him
self, he was an innocent victim Of
circumstances, who failed to fully
comprehend the complete nature of
his crime. He glanced about the
court room sadly. The teacher was
there on a stretcher. He spotted
| Scotty in the background with the
redhead. Gladys didn't dare show
up. She was afraid James would
rat on her; therefore, she left
town. There was no loneliness
such as his now. Not even the
warmth Of Scotty's smile appealed
or filled the vacancy in his heart
made by the hate created for his
father. Turning slowly, he answer
led to the touch of the officer by
going back to his cell, ready te
serve his time.
