tuberculosis patients.
DR.. E. Willis Hainlen, medical
director of the Bissell, revealed in
a recent report that, of 221 persons
who entered the hospital between
July, 1859, and March, 1860, II per
cent were suffering from tubercu-
losis alone, II per cent had tu-
berculosis and another chronic pull
monary disease, and IL per cent had
a chronic pulmony disease other
than tuberculosis.
Thus, Mr.. Evans pointed out,
more than one out of every four
persons hospitalized at the Bissell
during this period had to be treat
ed for a chronic pulmOny disease
other than tuberculosis.
Of the 26 persons hospitalized
with a combination of tuberculosis
and another chronic respiratory
disease, six suffered from bronch-
iectasis, five from corpulmonle,
four from fibrosis and emphysema,
and IL from emphysema and cor
pulmonale.
OF the 3S Bissel patients admitted
with chronic pulmonary diseases
alone, three had histOplasmOsis or
sarcoidosis, five chronic pneumo-
nitis, nine pulmonary cancer, six
bronchial asthma, seven bronchi-
ectasis and eight fibrosis and en-

Is Longest Grass State Feature
What could well be the finest
field of horses brought together
for grass race this season is in
prospect for the $4,000 added
Sussex Turf Handicap to be re-
newed this Saturday at Delaware
Park.
This richest and longest grass
stake of the Stanton tracks meet
ing will be having its 23rd run
Tfing, the fifth on the infield turf.
1t was converted from the main
dirt strip in 1856. It is interesting
to note that all four previous ver-
sions on grass have been won by
foreign-bred horses-and they look
no less formidable this season.
Among the imported stars ell
igible for this weekend's big at
traction are the French-bred aces

until William Penn's landing and
the founding of Philadelphia, the
story of the Delaware gparkles with
romance and adventure worthy of
the birth of the American nation.
Dutch explorers and navigators
who subsequently investigated the
Delaware included the noted Cor
nelius May Tor Mey) and Cornelius
Henrickson. The latter skipper is
credited with having made the first
map OF the Delaware in 1914.
After 1880 there were three ex-
petitions under Dutch auspices
led by the Dutch navigator. travel
ler. and patron. David Pierters-
sen de Vries. Under May and de-
Vries the first efforts at permanent
European settlement on the Della
ware were undertaken between
1923 and 1881. These attempts, in
cluding a 1881 attempt at settle
ment near present day Lewes were
unsuccessful.
The first ship under English
flag to appear on the Delaware was
the Discovery under Captain Sam
uel Argall. which entered the bay
in 1910 while searching for pro-
visions for the colony at James,

growth. And as a result OF recent
legislation, Brandywine picked up
an additional 18 nights this season
and Howard Miller, president and
general manager, ordered improve
ments up and down the line. AS a
result, fans and horsemen will be
treated to more room, greater con-
yeniences and more attractive pro-
grams than ever before.
A brand new lighting system, in
stalled under the direction of Plant
Superintendent Bill Davis, will give
the after-dark sport at Brandywine
a daylight look. Norman s. Lynch
of Frankford, chairman of the Del
aware Harness Racing Commission,
calls the track ''the best lighted
track in the country, including
Yonkers and Roosevelt Raceways. !"
Other improvements include the
expansion of the bleacher area to
an additional $50 seats so that the
track will now accommodate 10000
fans; expansion of the parking
area to a capacity of 5000 or more
cars; improvement of access roads;
of the stable area
which now can house about 750
horses; and the installation of the
Electronic Race Patrol, the COM
plex, cIosed-circuit television de-
vice that will give Milton D. Tay-
lor, presiding steward, and his
Judges, almost instantaneous re-
views Of the races.

build their own boats.
Speed Chief Virtue
Chief virtue of the El Toro
is its speed. In fact, it is rated
the fastest of its type in the
country.
Originating on the West
Coast, the Ell Toro is a modifi-
cation of the McGregor Sabot
pram. There are said to be
more than 1000 in the San
Francisco Bay area and fleets
are operating in Hawaii as we'll
as at American outposts in
Japan and Formosa.
In addition to the feet here,
there are a half dozen Ell Toros
at Annapolis, others at Hamp-
ton, Va, and Elizabeth City,
N. c.. and Boiling Air Force
Base is said to have purchased
five for its recreation program.
Useful as Tenders
Massey points out that the
little boats are useful as yacht
tenders because they can be
rowed or propelled by a small
outboard motor.
The El Toro can be bought
in mahogany plywood for $225
to $3.50, in Fiberglas for about
$3.50 and plans are available
to build ones own. That would
cost about 500 and take 40 to
so hours of labor.
The strange name? In Span
ish, Ell Toro means, Of course,
the Bull. When the first El
Toros we're built their owners
Dragged so much about them
the name was the obvious re-
suit. In fact, on their sails
El Toros carry the. class in
signia-a shovel.
