I'D. Head Says

The University of Delaware is
evidently being considered an
even better place to teach and
engage in scholarly activities.
A study prepared for the COM
mittee on instruction of the uni
versity's board of trustees re-
veals that there has been a
steady improvement in the re-
tention of capable faculty. In
view of the national shortage
of qualified college teachers in
most fields and stepped-up re-
cruiting efforts by industry and
government as we'll as other
colleges and universities, this
report is especially gratifying to
university officials and trustees.
OF this improvement, Presi-
dent John A. Perkins said, "The
challenge is to Keep on improv-
ing our holding power in the
even more competitive period
ahead"
In l956-57, the University of
Delaware retained 1877 per cent
of its 244 faculty members.
This percentage has continued
to rise each year to l959-60,
when dosses through retirement,
illness, death and the recruit
ment efforts of other univers-
tiles and industry were reduced
to 10 per cent. Only 27 of last
years 27l faculty members are
not on the staff today. These
statistics are particularly inn
pressive because of the expect
ed turnover at the probationary
ranks of instructor and assist

Step-Up Patrols
To Combat
Night Hunting

Night hunting for deer, rab-
bits and waterfowl has been the
most serious game violation this
fall according to wardens of the
Delaware Game and Fish Com
mission. Night patrols have
been stepped up to combat
these practices.
Magistrates cooperate with
game wardens in opposing night
time violations by levyin g
heavy sentences against guilty
parties. Fines usually exceed
$4,000 per person.
Over most of the State ex-
cellent cooperation with land
owners and other true sports
men has resulted in information
leading to the arrest of viola
tors. Public opinion is gener-
ally dead set against night hunt
ers because groups of armed
boys and men roaming the
countryside at all hours of the
night is a constant threat to
life and property. Recent shoot
ings at mail boxes, buildings
and, in one case, the wounding
of a young girl has been attrib-
uted to night hunters.
Law enforcement officers feel
that, in the final analysis, the
best deterrent to night shooting
is strong public disapproval
which is made known to those
who would consider such law
violations.

Somewhere back of the sunset
Where love never dies,
He lives in land of glory
Amidst the blue and golden skies.
Not dead to those who loved him
But only gone before.

Sad memories craved this time of year.

Deep in our hearts he'll always stay.
Loved and remembered in every way.

Plant an Amarylls bulb for win
ter blooms. Amaryllis, Caladium,
and Gloxinia are usually started in
January and February. With good
cultural care, beautiful foliage and
flowers are produced. Bulbs are a.
vailable from local florists and
farm supply stores. For detailed
directions on planting and care of
these plants, request a direction

Now is the time to check your

them now to make sure that they
do not dry out too much and die.
If you didn't have time to mulch
= your garden last fall, there is still
time. Your old Christmas tre e
I, boughs are excellent for this pur-
B pose. Perennial flowers especially
appreciate a mulch. Oak leaves,
hay, straw, and similar materials
are good mulching materials. AL
ternate freezing and thawing cause
plants to be heaved out of the
ground and killed by drying winds
and sun. This is especially true of
newly set plants.
Days are getting longer now.
House plants will grow faster. Now
is a good time to take cuttings of
some of your house plants such as
cOleus, everblooming begonia, etc,
so you will have plants to include

mer. Make cuttings 3 to 5 inches
long and root them in vermiculite

bout an inch long plant them in

Insurance Commissioner
Smith Gets Recognition
CONTINUED from page one)


in connection with public insur-
ance programs, but also in the
handling of business and individ-
ual risks and family insurance
programs. The editorial stated
"coverages are being cOnsolidat-
ed and broadened and the saw
ings, real or envisioned, are being
passed on to the consumer IN the
form of lower rates.
Commissioner Smith was cited
for his forward look because of
the fact that premiums developed
by these new programs and pack
ages are based on a higher ratio
of insurance to values. In many
cases the property owner, which
in this case is the State of Della
ware, not only benefits by saw
ings in insurance cost but by
much better insurance protection
for the premium paid. The Del
aware Commissioners was further
praised for having the property
of the State of Delaware well-ln-
sured as reflected by such large
savings through a revision of the
states insurance arrangements.
The weekly insurance magazine
carving this editorial brought
out the fact that the insurance
business in general has made a
lot of progress in the past decade
and indicated that Commissioner
Smiths development of such a
formula means future success for
The business because OF his
prompt adoption of such sound
new methods of procedure.
Apparently Com m i S i 0 7
Smiths new program, which has
effected such savings for the tax
PAYERS of Delaware in this trying
time of attempting to balance the
state budget, has rubbed off on all
segments of the insurance busl-
ness. This was evidenced by his
being commended in a recent
statement of the Journal of Com
merce. a national insurance daily
publication, and by the official
publication of the Tri-State Mu-
tuar Agents Association of Penn
sylvania, Maryland and Delaware
for consolidating many OF Dela-
wares insurance policies" The
mutual insurance article COM
mended the Delaware Commission
er for his drive" to eliminate
waste and duplication in the states
insurance program which he had
launched out on early in 1853.
They cited Commissioner Smith
also for coordination of the states
insurance program with the aid OF
free professional and technical
services from all segments OF the
insurance business, which, in turn,
saved Delaware taxpayers thou
sands of dollars on appralsals and
engineering surveys necessary TO
properly evaluate the millions OF
dollars worth of property, both
real and personal, owned by the
State of Delaware.
