SENTENCED TO
YEAR IN JAIL
Seymour Shapiro Arrested In
Smyrna Was Tried in Court
of Common Pleas, Dover
WANTED IN NEW JERSEY

A driver who allegely picked up
two hitch-hikers and urged them
to hold up several truck drivers
along the highway late Monday
night, was sentenced Tuesday to
25 days in jail in default of a S25
fine, by Magistrate George R. Stew
enson, on a charge of driving with
out a license. The driver, Seymour
Shapiro, 20, of Newark, N. j., was
tried in the Court of Common Pleas
before Judge Ernest v. Keith in
Dover yesterday and was convicted
and sentenced to one year impris-
onment on a concealed weapons
charge. The hitch-hikers, Anthony
Guerrero, 26, and Ulela Esther Sal.
Ivo, 20, both of Schenectady, N. Y.
were sentenced to 10 days in jail
by Magistrate Stevenson on a vag-
rancy charge.
Tells of Pickup
According to Guerrera's story
he and the girl were picked up by
Shapiro in New Jersey late Mon.
day night. When Shapiro's cal
got low on gas just north of Smyr-
ina, Guerrero said the driver gave
him As caliber pistol and told
him to hold up several truckmer
along the highway. Guerrero said
he approached the trucks, brand
ishing the gun in hold-up style
but requested each driver to notify
police of his predicament The driv.
er, Garland Marshall, of Hallwood
Va, notified Smyrna police, who ir
turn reported the call to state po-
lice. Smyrna police then picked
up the car north of Smyrna anc
followed it in town where the ar
rest was made.
Story Substantiated
Marshall substantiated that part
of Guerrera's story relative to the
hold-up. He said he was asleep in
his truck when Guerrero awoke
him pointed the pistol at him, and
requested that he notify police,
Police said that Shapiro had in
addition to the As caliber pistol
gun of italian make, both al
legedly stolen by him in Newark

police, Shapiro, was given dis
honorable discharge from the
Army last May 15 after complet.
ing a five-year sentence for ar
AWOL offense.

LATE BLIGHT WARNING
Infected Fields of Tomatoes Dis.
covered in MiddletOWn Area


Late blight of tomatoes has
made its appearance in Delaware.
The first infected fields were dis
covered this week in the Middle
town area with approximately 300
acres more or less seriously dis
eased. All tomato growers should
spray or dust at once whether their
tomatoes seem to be diseased or
not. This spraying or busting now
is good insurance against an out
break since the wet, muggy wealth
er with more or less cool nights
is ideal for the development of late
blight. Sprays to use are Parzate,
Dithane Z-78 and Fixed Coppers.
These same materials can be used
as dusts. However, the sprays are
more effective but in either case
complete coverage of the plants is
extremely important in obtaining
control of the disease. Hornworms
and corn earworm are also increas-
ing in numbers and it would be ad-
visable to put 4 pounds of calcium
arsenate in each 100 gallons of
spray to help check the damage
from these pests. Rothane can al
so be used in the place of the ar
senate for the control of the toma-
to hornworm.

Renewed Activity at Air Base

Speculation on the possibility of

SPEAKER AT
LAKE COMO
Rev. DIR. Jones of London,
England, Guest Speaker at
Vesper Services Sunday
HARRY DECKER SANG

Speaking on the thoughts that
confront the individual viewing
world conditions today. The Rev.
DR.. Clifford Fernley Jones of Lon
don, England, guest speaker at the
Sunday evening vesper services on
the shore of Lake Como, stressed
that the real issue in any conflict
is the challenge of evil against
good. The Christian fights evil on
two fronts, he declared, one spirit
ual and the other temporal. And
he must fight on either front for
God and self-giving, or man and
self-getting. Your people and my
people won the last war on the
temporal front, but the final issue
the victory in heaven-was lost,
DR.. Jones declared. A Chaplain
with the Royal Air Force, DR..
Jones told of the general attitude
among fighting men that God is
on our side" and therein lay our
spiritual defeat. Rather should we
have asked "are we on the side Of
God?
Preaching in Wilmington
DIR. Jones, minister of Southgate
Methodist Church in The Bourne
London, occupies the pulpit at
Grace Methodist Church, Whining
ton, while the Rev. DR.. William
Frederick Dunkle, Jr., of that
church is in turn preaching in Lon

Harry Decker of Wilmington,
was guest soloist, accompanied by
Mrs. John Sparks, organist of As
bury Methodist Church. Members
of local fraternal organizations at
tended the services and were given
recognition by the Rev. Walter L.
Beckwith. The call to worship
was given by the Rev. Thomas G.
Mulligan, superintendent of Dover
district, and the benediction was
given by the Rev. Frederick Marx

LEGION POST
FAVORS LUNG"
Drive For Funds Continues
Under Direction of
Grant G. GariS
VISITORS TO POST

The drive to secure sufficient
funds towards the purchase of a
portable iron lung for this COM
munity continues under the direc-
tion of Grant G.. Garis. At last
weeks meeting of the David C.
Harrison Post No. IA, American
Legion, it was voted to place a
definite order for the purchase of
a portable lung; even though actu-
ally less than half of the necessary
money had been donated as of that
date. The total cost of the iron
lung, plus such necessary extra
equipment needed to provide for
the next twelve months use, will
be very close to $14O0. At the time
this report was written, the actual
money received and deposited with
the chairman was $73250, leaving
a balance still to be raised of
S667.5O. Teams frcfq both the
Legion Post, and Legion Auxiliary
will continue their coverage Of bus
mess firms and residents in their
appeal for funds.
Visitors to Post
A surprise visit was made to the
local Post last Wednesday night by
retiring Department Commander
William j. B. Regan and Depart
ment Adjutant and Service officer
Thomas B. Egan. Both Depart
ment officials gave informal talks.
Among subjects reviewed by the
distinguished visitors were the
Posts service activities. Much fav-
orable comment was directed to-
wards the new iron lung project.
'Tt is to be recalled, that at his
time twenty-six years ago, the
Legion Post was preparing for the
first American Legion ambulance
in the world. Now the Post is
working for still another first. This
time. it is believed, that the new
iron lung will be the first of its
kind for a community's use in
Delaware" a Legion spokesman
said.

While yesterdays thermom-

Monumental drifts that will re-

Elk Meat GiUer1
Needy Blackfeet
At Local Agency

Needy members of the Black
feet Tribe are receiving elk meat
this week as a result of a ship.
ment of "a head from Yellow
stone National Park. The car
casses were brought in by two
trucks by George Hinkel. Jr, and
Fred Cobell last Saturday and
unloaded in the old warehouse at
the Agency. Transportation
of the shipment was financed by
the Tribal Council.
Cobell said that each carcass
averaged around 400 pounds.
Work of skinning the carcasses
and cutting up the meat began
Monday. Some of the meat, it
was understood, will be distribu-
ted from Heart Butte.
The elk shipment, it was un-
derstood, is the first of several
to be made from Yellowstone Ma
tional Park during the winter.
80 carcasses is to be the share of
the Blackfeet, it was understood.
Members of various tribes of
Montana and neighboring states
are to share in the elk treat.
The project stems from the
Park Services efforts to reduce
the elk population in Yellowstone
National Park, which from time
to time becomes necessary that
the proper grazing load be main
tained in that area.
