WORK COMBINED WITH STUDY BY DE PAUW MEN Nearly Half of Men Enrolled Engage In Various Occupations. Bp Times Special GREENCASTLE, Ind., Sept. 5. De Pauw university officials are yearly besieged by the question, “Is it possible to work my way through school?” In order to give a satisfactory answer, Professor L. H. Dirks, dean of men, and Dr. Henry B. Longden, director of the Rector scholarship foundation, made a survey. It was found that 48 per cent of the men at Dc Pauw work and contribute to their own support while attending school. Os the Rector scholarship holders, who were already aided by paym n n*- of their tuition, 51 per cent were doing outside work. Os the non-Rector men, 44 per cent were working. It was found that' the average working student earns $104.80 a semest?r or almost $2lO a year, a third of the average expense for a year at De Pauw. Approximately 950 men are enrolled each year and with half of these contributing to their own §upport with an average of $2lO a year, a total of $99,750 a year is earned by students. To earn almost SIOO,OOO in the course of nine months might appear to require a serious drain on the time of the student, but it was found in the survey that the average time per working student, spent in outside work, was but 2.36 hours per day. Various kinds of work is done. Forty-four occupations were listed. Waiting tables in sorority and fraternity houses, restaurants and cafeterias, proved the most popular work. Firing furnaces claimed many. The most lucrative were found to be preaching and playing in jazz orchestras. The gamut was run from caring for children to barbering. Farmer boys found work In local dairies and orchards. • The largest amount reported earned by any one student in one semester was S4OO and the lowest was $5.

BY BEN STERN. POLITICAL kite fliers for 1932 will have a good chance to learn the direction of the wind within two months when the voters in approximately 400 Indiana towns go to the polls to elect local officials on Nov. 3. To a certain extent, however, the indications will be tempered by purely local issues. In the main this will be taxation and small-town animosities and dislikes, but if greater portion of the 400 select their officials from one party or the other, the sentiment will be well reflected. In 1929 elections were held in approximately sixty Indiana cities of major size and Democrats were chosen in almost all. a a it It was a clear foreshadowing of what was to occur the next year, in 1930, when the Democrats took all of the state offices contested and won in the majority of the counties. Much depends on the local elections this year. There are many party leaders who place much faith in what they portend. The results at the polls will be watched much closer this year than ever before, for 1932 is a crucial year for many a politically ambitious Hoosier. Os this all may be sure, that no matter what the outcome then, new faces will appear on the horizon. There has been a dearth of these, especially in the Republican party. The Monday night watermelon feast at the Irvington Republican Club was proof of this. tt tt a Not an unknown was present. All who came have held office and been political wheelhorses of one kind or another for years. The same can be said to have been true down in Tell City at the Eighth district rally Thursday. A look at the political landscape today causes the commentator to declare: “ ‘The old order changeth, giving place to the new’ except in Hoosier politics.” The 1930 election should have warned the Republican leaders that new faces and new ideals are needed. but it is evident that like the Bourbons, they “never learn.” Receiver Appointed By Times Special WABASH. Ind., Sept. 5.—W. H. Anderson has been appointed by the Wabash circuit court as receiver for the Midland Asbestos Corporation.

Asserting that last winter several cases of under-nourished school children had been brought to her attention, Mrs. Wells declared: “If the county council allows 60 cents a day for feeding prisoners in the county jail, I believe that some adjustment should be made to provide sufficient food for children of families w r ho are law-abiding citizens.” Relief Rules Tightened HAMMOND, Ind., Sept. 4.—Feed for one dog is enough tn feed a child, H.

HOOSIERDOM FAIRLY SAFE FROM SNAKES
Deaths From Bites Very Rare, According to Health Official. Snake bites are uncommon in Indiana and bites with deadly results are rare, Dr. William F. King, state health commissioner, said today. Dr. King said that two deaths, attributed to snake bites, had been reported to his office this year. These may have been caused directly by attacks of serpents, Dr. King admitted, but he was inclined to believe that other circumstances were contributory. A person in sound health usually will overcome the poison, he asserted. The health commissioner said that there are only two types of venomous snakes in the state, the rattler and the copper-head. “The latter,” Dr. King said, “although recognized as deadly, seldom inflicts fatal bites.” He believed that there has not been a person killed in Indiana by a copper-head in more than six years. “Rattlesnakes are the more dangerous of the two, but they always give plenty of warning before they strike.” Even though their bite is deadly, if medical aid is obtained before the poison has time to penetrate the system, the patient is in no grave danger. Dr. King said. He advised that all snake bites be given treatment, since many, while not necessarily dangerous, often resulted in severe wounds. INVITATION TO TWINS Triplets and Quadruplets Also Urged to Attend Reunion.
