ers on the beach. That agreement
was made in writing with the sane
ton of then Governor Carvel. All
the Whites had to do was to ask
me to let them see this agreement. "
Regarding the $4,000 fund, May
or Smith said, 1.-THE LeWes Town
Board was unwilling to say how
the highway department should go
ahead with this usage just on the
recommendations of this commit
tee." He referred to the several
parleys of property owners there.
I'VE felt we board members
know nothing about how the work
should be done, and l think that
these numerous meetings have
only clOuded the issue"
Colonel McWilliams agreed with
Mayor Smith that the local parleys
had clOuded the issue to date.
You have been too undecided
in your various plans he said.
But as long as you are now in
agreement, we can go ahead with
our plans if it is left up to us to
decide what to do as our best en-
cheering knowledge dictates"
The colonel outlined the depart
ment's plan. These include the
erection of two additional grOins,
and possibly another if the money
holds out. We hope to start this
work with a preliminary survey on
Thursday. Then bids must be re-
ceived, of course, before contracts
are awarded"
Colonel McWilliams said he
didn't think much of a proposal
for pumping up sand barriers on
the beach. He deemed them only
temporary relief, the same as bulk
heads. He said it had not proved
satisfactory at Bethany Beach or
Slaughter Beach.
He added that Mayor Smith had
personally written him, placing the
responsibility of the beach prob
lem on the highway department.
but that he wanted the official
sanction of the town of Lewes.
H. Edward Maull, former Lewes
mayor, who presided at this meet
ing and at the three previous par
leys, said he would see that the
highway department gets the spe-
ciftc authorization to go ahead
with the work proposed by the
chief engineer, Incorporating the

 C0MMENT

The hottest baseball ques- ton of the moment is whether Del Webb and Dan Topping are ready to sell the Yankees, who just last year set an all time record by winning their sixth straight pennant and World Series.
 The event which prompted the latest speculation along this line was the sale of right handler Vic Raschi to the St. Louis Cardinals. Raschi, long the highest paid member of the Yankees -hurling corps, had also long been compari- lively overpaid by the Yan- keeS.
 Even when Allie Reynolds won the pennant for the Tanks a couple of seasons back and saved the World Series with sensational clutch pitching, he came up next sea- son with a contract calling for less dinero than did Raschi. The Springfield Rifle was a top Yankee hurler, however, be- fore Reynolds was, and evil dently felt that his past ser
