York, On this 1900 mile journey he' counted 321 dead birds, 14 skunks, 71 squirrels, chipmunks, 10 rabbits and)

3 opposums along the highways. Ohio and Indiana apparently have a greater percentage of fatalities than any other state, Hadley stud. He advocated a campaign for educating motorI ists to be careful of animal and bird life while driving. o Evansville— (UP) —The "hickory I stick” has almost vanished fr in schools nowadays. Out of 20 schools wliich enroll about 9,000 students, only 67 received corporal punishment. Dugger —(UP) —The largest cousoli- . dated school in Sullivan county is located at Dugger.

The same expansion Is witnessed ' further between Gary and Hammond and between Indiana Harbor and Gaiy where city limit lines are being obliterated by the construction of new homes, which gradually are making Gary, Hammond. Indiana Harbor and East Chicago a homogenous whole. According to the opinion of Mayor Tlnkham of Hammond, und many others prominent in civic affairs, the movement to consoldidate the various cities will begin to take rapid form next year, when, they say construction of homes in the Dunes area will be undertaken on a vast scale. The first concrete step in the work of consolidation was taken at Indianapolis Wednesday when a group of forty men mayors, eouncllmen engineers and representatives of all the cities and towns along the Lake, from the liliouis State line to Michigan City, met in the office of Dr. W. F. King, of the State Board of Health and discuss-

At an informal conference after the meeting, it was suggested and agreed to by all that Dr. King draft an order compelling Immediate action on sewage disposal and force cooperation between the various municipalities in cleaning up the lake. This Dr. King did, urging concreted action reminding the various mayors that they were serving a unified community and asking that they cooperate not only in this matter, but every manner which would serve to unite the Calumet Heglon, and avoid the petty squabbles which might come up. ■ar- ■ i-0 Princeton — (UP) — Two stitches were required to close a wound inflicted on Mrs. John Wood of this city suffered after she attempted to ral e a window ami a portion of the pane (ell out on her hand.
