Frank Bolden has been so
busy playing them one at a
time" that he has given little
thought to his overall record
since he took over as basketball
coach at Cardozo High School
in 1858.
However. Frank finally got
curious yesterday. He took the
time to go over the records and
came up with a won-loSt mark
of 1921 since he gave up
coaching track at Dunbar to
take the basketball job at
Cardozo.
Some Of Bolden's players
probably will dispute the fact
that he ever gave UP coaching
track. One of the big reasons
for Cardozo's success on the
court is the time the young
sters spend running up and
down the Thirteenth street hill.
Bolden uses the hill to build
up the players stamina. When
the weather gets bad, the team
moves inside to Join the track
and eros s-country squads
running In the halls.
The hill has become a stand
ing joke at Cardozo, but no
body can deny its effect on the
b a SIX e tb all team. Bolden's
teams always are rated as
corners" during the late sea-
son. The Clerks finished fast
last season to wind UP second
to unbeaten Eastern In the
Interhigh League.
This season Cardozo Is off to
q fast start with q SO record.
A year ago the Clerks won four
of their first five but stumbled
slightly during January. Bolden
Is keeping his fingers crossed
this year.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1963-12-19

The most important phase
of basketball at the high school
level is conditioning" Bolden
claims. His record backs him
up.
Cardozo's leader this season
is Phillip Scott. q ball-handling
whiz, and Aaron Webster, q s.
foot-4 senior. The other start
ers are Kenneth Sommerville,
ga, Billy Gaskins and Carlos
Young. The top substitute Is
Bill Jones, a 6-6 sophomore.
At least two top basketball
scorers in the area are making
sure their feats are reported in
the sports section. Bernard
White Of Luther Jackson and
Tom Tucker of Charlotte Hall
lead their teams on the court
and then phone in the results.
Sharkey Showalter Of Nc
Lean was a scholastic reporter
during the football season and
now is making news on the
basketball court. Sharkey got
his nickname for his proves
at the card table, according to
several other athletes at Nc
Lean.
Spingarn of the Interhigh
League has had three different
coaches In the last three years,
but the system has remained
exactly the same. Dave Parks,
this years coach, has retained
the idea of playing every man
on the squad In every pre-
season game, q policy started
by DR.. william Rountree. 1t
usually pays off later In the
season.

opened to the public. Also on
display, in public buildings and
in downtown store windows, will
be many interesting collections
of relics from Milford S
Ihistory-packed past.
Focal point Of the Old Milford
Days observance will be the
Parson Thorne Mansion on
Silver Hill in the northwestern
section Of the city. This "new-
est" Of Delaware's many his
torical ShrineS and tourist at
fractions is believed to be the
Oldest dwelling in the area and
was the home Of The Rev.
|Sydenham Thorne, co-founder
with Joseph oliver Of Milford.
An old English Colonial type
structure, built just prior to the
American Revolution, the Par
son Thorne Mansion was ac-
quired by the Milford Historical
Society last year as a gift from
Richard Draper, member Of a
family long associated with the
industrial life of this area. The
mansion is gradually being re-
stored to its former stately ap-
|pearance and proceeds from this
years Old Milford Days tours
will be used to further this
restoration work.
A small family burial plot
near the mansion contains the
graves of the parents of John
M. Clayton, a Delawarean who
attained international stature as
secretary of state in President
Zachery Taylor's cabinet.
Always Of interest to Milford
visitors is Christ Episcopal
Church. This imposing religious
edifice, begun in 1871 by The
Rev. Thorne, its first rector,
still retains many Of tn e
features that associate it with
Milford's early days.
A Milford area home that will
attract much attention on Old
Milford Days is "Mordington, !"
the country home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Leslie I. March.
Situated on a tree shaded
knoll overlooking McCauley's
Pond, this outstanding example
Of Georgian architecture was
built around 1777 by Walter
Douglass, who had extensive
holdings that included, in ad-
dition to Mordington, consider
able farmland, an iron foundry,
mill and wharfs near the head
waters of the nearby Murderkill
Milford chronicle., 1963-08-16

Creek. The distinguished Della
ware statesman, John M. Clay
ton, was frequent visitor to
Mordington.
In pre-Civil War days,
Mordington was "station" on
the so-called "underground
railroad" used by runaway
slaves enroute to the North and
freedom. While a tunnel used
by these slaves has long been
sealed off, evidence Of slave
quarters may still be seen in
cellar and on the surrounding
grounds.
The present owners OF
Mordington have furnished 1t
with many beautiful antiques and
have successfully preserved the
charm of this gracious, old
residence.
Old Milford Days tours will
be conducted from 11:00 am.
to 500 p.m., on Saturday, Sept.
21, and from loo pm. to 500
p.m., on Sunday, September %.
Governor Ebert N. Carvel
and other state officials will

thrips and nutritional deficien-
cies. Of the n specimens, SO
dealt with insects, 27 with nu-
tritional disorders and fertility
problems and II with plant dis
eases.
Heuberger reported that $50
people visited the clinic during
the day to examine an exhibit
on soybean diseases and insects
and to talk about plant disease
and insect problems.
The windowless broilerhouse,
topic Of much conversation
among peninsula poultrymen,
seemed to draw a lot Of at
tention. Poultrymen had an op-
portunity to go inside the house
and examine the birds. Frank
|D'Armi, research associate at
the University Substation who is
in charge Of poultry work, told
them that the birds we're making
excellent progress. The 5000
birds were placed in the house
nine weeks before Field Day
and, for all practical purposes,
they didn't see the light of day
until they were removed from
the house and sent to the
professors the day after Field
Day. Although carcass data
won't be available for a few
days, D'Armi feels the birds
will outweigh birds raised at the
S station in conventional
houses during this same period.
lit is the hope of University
poultrymen and agricultural en-
.gineers that this new kind Of
housing will result in a better
rate Of gain, higher feed con-
version and lower mortality
rate.
The house is almost COM
pletely automatic. The birds are
fed and watered automatically.
Fans are operated by thermo-
stats which kick in and out when
the temperature reaches GER
tain critical stages. The house
is lighted night and day by a
few small light bulbs. Workers
at the University Farm indicate
that practically no actual labor
is required in managing the
birds. "All we do is stop In
occasionally to see that the
automatic feeders are working
and that nothing has gone hay
wire. So far, we've had very
few problems" The University
plans to make a complete re-
port on the windowleSS house
to producers as soon
as the data has been compiled.
The effects of insect damage
on crops has long been a topic
Of vital interest to Delaware
farmers. Walter Connell, Uni
visitors to Farm & Home Field
Day some experimental work he
Is conducting to determine just
how much damage Soybean
plants can stand without suffer-
Milford chronicle., 1963-08-16

ing yield losses. In this expert
ment he removed leaves from
soybean plants to simulate in
sect damage. In one plot all OF
the leaves were removed while
the beans were blooming. In
other plots ia, 1/2 and 3/4 OF
the leaves were removed at
various stages Of growth.
He indicates that when all OF
the leaves were removed during
the blooming stage, substantial
loss in yield could be expected.
Surprisingly, though, when as
many as half Of the leaves were
removed during this stage there
seemed to be very little effect
on the plants. Connell told
visitors that after the plants
had bloomed, there seemed to
be very little effect on the plant
Weld even when all Of the leaves
were removed. He plans to get
yield data on the beans this fall.
From this, he feels entomolo-
gists will be better equipped to
advise growers on the need for
using insecticides to combat in
sect outbreaks.
DR.. Richard Cole, agronomist
at the University, told visitors
to his research plots that the
problem Of controlling weeds in
soybeans hasn't been complete
ly licked. He showed them sew
eral plots where different COM
mercial weed control chemicals
had been used. Some showed
excellent results while others
were quite disappointing. Cole
is trying to establish a weed
control method that will give
excellent results with no culti-
vation at a cost Of less than
$40 per acre. He indicated that
he has been able to get excellent
control but the cost, thus far,
has been prohibitive.
In another weed control ex-
pertinent, Cole has been at
tempting to find out the effects
of chemical residues on soy
beans that follow corn. Atrazine,
chemical that is commonly
used on corn, can have dis
astrous results on a soybean
crop that follows the next sea-
son. Cole has been experiment.
ing at various levels and forms
of Atrazine application to see
which method can be used safe
ly. SO far, the only sure way
to tell If the beans will be
damaged is to use a fall seeded
cover crop such as barley or
rye. If the cover crop IS
damaged, then its a good bet
the soybeans that might follow
would be damaged also, he says.

= Havana radio said today
many persons we're arrested
last night in Havana for re-
fusing to go to work or enlist

Without using specific num-
bers. the broadcast, monitored
in Miami, indicated several
hundred were jailed by mill

picked up in billiard rooms.
The report partially con-

rested more than 5000 persons
in Havana for refusing to
work or join the army.
Mr.. Lopez said special squads

houses, theaters, bars, billiard
rooms and other public places
and pick up everyone who

5 More Walk Out of Mine;
Utah Death Toll Put at 18

MOAB, Utah. Aug. 30 (AP)
Five more trapped miners
were rescued alive and in good
condition last night, but II
others were found dead.
The final toll was 18 killed.
Seven survived, two were
rescued earlier.
The five found last night
were in surprisingly good con-
dition in the same deep tunnel
from which the other two
escaped Wednesday morning
the day after Is miners were
caught 5000 feet down by an
explosion.
Eight men were already
known dead when two rescue
teams started a now-or-never
search for the remaining IS
late in the afternoon.
Within 80 minutes Chief
Engineer June Crawford of the
Texas Gulf Sulphur Co., owner
of the potash mine, announced
emotionally: Five survivors
have been found in the Fast
shaft. The men are walking
out of that drift"
Then up they came, grimy

but smiling, in such good con-
dition there was little need of
treatment. One of them, Grant
Eslick, said Sure, I'm ready to
go back to mining"
Three hours after the rescue
Mr.. Crawford had to tell the
fearful wives and parents still
waiting by the mine what most
of them had feared: The last
10 men in the other tunnel
where the blast occurred were
dead.
Amid some miners charges
that safety precautions were
lax at the mine, plans were
announced for a Joint State
Federal investigation starting
Monday. A State official said:
We'll subpoena and question
everyone who might have any,
thing to say"
The last five survivors owed
their lives to the first two and
their own makeshift barricades

while they awaited rescue.

station here early today when
three busloads of Negroes, re-
turning from the civil rights
march in Washington. tried to
use white facilities in the depot.
Police Sergt. Sam Keller said
the 1913 passengers went into the
railways bus station and many
used the white rest rooms, sat
in the white waiting room and
sought service at the restau-
rants white counters.
About a half dozen white

out. A fight started in the white
waiting room. After the officers
settled the disturbance, the
Negroes reboarded the buses

ChomizoI Treaty
Siqned in Mexico
By the Associate Press

Representatives of the United
States and Mexican Govern
ments have signed in Mexico
City a treaty for settlement of
the Chamizal case.
This involves land In Ell
Paso, Tex, being returned to
Mexico. The United States had
acquired it when the Rio
Grande changed its course in
1864, putting several hundred
acres of Mexican territory into
the United States.
The signing Of the conven-
ton in Mexico City yesterday
by United States Ambassador
Thomas c. Mann and Foreign
Minister Manuel Tello of Mex
leo carries one step further the
agreement announced July 10.
The document will now 60 to
the Senate of each nation for
formal approval.
Mexico's national territory is
to be increased by 437 acres
when the treaty becomes oper-
alive.
