Pedestrian fatalities are up
20 per cent so far this year.
a clergyman declared yester-
day calling for greater applic-
alton of the admonition, "Be
your brothers. keeper"
The Reverend DR.. Park w.
Huntington, a director of the
Delaware Safety Council, said:
:" BE your brothers. keeper
is rule of life. and to apply
1t to traffic behavior is prac-
dcal religion"
He pointed out that In fatal
accidents on Delaware streets
and highways up to November
IS seventeen pedestrians died
as compared with ten in the
same period last year, for an
increase of 20 per cent. He
declared there is an obliga-
don of every individual to keep
others safe In traffic.
This responsibility goes
hand In hand with the natural
instinct for self-preservation, "
he said. eff a careless act of
yours provokes an accident, you
are the one responsible for any
injury or loss of life that re-
suits - to yourself or to an
other"
NOV, when the Delaware
Safety Council is emphasizing
pedestrian protection, would be
a good time for each of US
to take a critical look at our
own traffic behavior" DR..
Huntington suggested.
He offered the following safe
walking rules, approved by the
Delaware Safety Council, as a
guide to sensible pedestrian be-
havior.
~ Cross street watchfully
and at intersections only.
(2) Never walk into the street
from behind parked cars.
(3) Obey traffic signs and
signals, cross on GREEN or
WALK only.
(4) Wait on sidewalk, not In
street, for green light or walk
signal or for gap in traffic, If
intersection has no traffic sig
nal.
(5) Cross streets In cross
walks, and do not cross inter-
sections diagonally.
(6) Look left and right for
traffic while crossing. Watch
sharply for turning cars. Be
especially careful at one-way
street crossings to check the
direction of approaching traffic.

Brown Retains Rushing
Crown; Mccoy Third

Final 1862 football statistics
released by the University of
Delaware show that junior half
back Mike Brown retained the
rushing and total offense crown
he won last season, that senior
halfback Clint Ware wrested
away Browns scoring title, and
that the Delaware Blue Hens
7-2 record was reflected In
final team statistics.
The Hens ground attack, con-
sidered the most important con-
tribution to their Middle At
landc Conference supremacy In
'o2 and their best overall sea-
son since 1859, was so WELL
balanced that seven Delaware
backs finished with significant
individual rushing totals. Pre-
carry averages of the top seven
ranged from Wares ST. to Joe
Slobojan's 80.
The 90, l98-pound Brown,
from Wilmington, DEL, carried
8o times in 'o2, the same total
he amassed last season as a
sophomore. He gained 433
yards, 2o more than last season
team leading figure, and aver
aged 40 yards per-carry. In
1861, Brown averaged AS, best
among the regulars.
Wallace, ST, l60-pond Pit
