HOOSIER SCHOOL TEXT AUTHORS FLOCK TO FORE Fame of Writers Neglected Until State Sale of Books Is Needed. Indiana has a host of Hoosier authors whose lame has remained unheralded, it was discovered today. They are teachers and college professors in state schools whose names appear as authors of textbooks adopted by the state. It is said that in some instances other names appear in other states with state adoptions, the "local appeal" being used to make state sales. Texts Approved by Board Several such texts have been approved by the new state board of education when five-year approval was put on all high school texts recently. For instance, approval was given the High School English written oy Henry Seidel Canby and John Bakpr Opdycke in the edition "revised ’ by Miss Margaret Gillum, a tpacher at Teire Haute. That such editions arc put forward to secure adoption in the state where the author lives, was admitted readily by both Governor Paul V. McNutt, ex-officio member of the board, and George C. Cole, state superintendent and presiding officer. The list for both common and high schools comprises about a dozen “approved'' books. In some instances all authors are from Indiana, while, in others, they hold the role of co-author, or have compiled special Indiana editions. Here are the books, authors and publishers: “Guide Books to Reading,” Laidlaw Brothers’ publishers; Lawrence McTurnan, former assistant superintendent of public instruction in Indiana, and President J. O. Engleman of Ohio State Normal, Kent, 0., authors. Hygiene and Health,” BobbsMerrill, publishers; Dean Charles P.

Heat, Drought Set New Weather Record in U. S.

Condition Abnormal Over Entire Nation, Says Bureau Chief. E*y Science Service WASHINGTON, June 27.—Summer has scarcely begun, yet this year’s hot season already has made a record for itself, according to reports of the United States weather bureau here. There was abnormally hot weather in a large part of the north, while frost has visited regions much farther south, J. B. Kincer, chief of the climate and crop-weather division of the bureau, pointed gut. In the middle of June a large reSion centering around the Dakotas suffered from an average temperature of fifteen degrees above normal for a whole week. At the same time, cool weather brought an average of nine degrees below normal to a large part of the east with

Captain Pfleuger Fails to Shake Off Injuries in Truck-Bus Crash. With a record of twenty-nine years as a fireman without a black mark, Captain William Pfleuger of Station 27 has been retired, having failed to recover fully from injuries he incurred when a truck collided with a bus. Besides Pfleuger, those injured

were Charles Boswell, Orville Robinson, Michael Welch and Truman Coan. All have returned to duty excepting Pfleuger and Boswell, the latter having incurred a severe spinal injury. The truck-bus crash occurred Oct. 30. 1932. Several years ago Pfleuger. then a lieuatenant, incurred an injury in a fall

frosts as far south as the Shenandoah valley of Virginia. Drought has been coupled with ; heat in the north central part of | the country and has also extended over practically all the south. It is most unusual for so many states to lack rain at the same time, Kinccr explained. He said he did not recall a week during which as little rain fell over the whole country as that which ended June 20. The rainfall map for those seven days shows about half the country, mostly the Mississippi valley, without a drop of precipitation. He explained that there have been scattered local rains but that large regions as a whole were very dry. So fan only one crop, wheat, has been damaged seriously by heat and drought, Kincer said. Corn and cotton have not been injured yet, but both crops need good rains soon. The need' for rain is especially great over much of the south, where June is the second dry month.

Pfleuger was known to his associates. They explained it was given him because he always “sounded off” when made the target of practical jokes. One of the jokes was putting limburger cheese behind the buttons of Pfleuger’s coat just after it had been returned from a cleaning shop. Pfleuger was appointed to the fire department April 6, 1904, and had served continuously since that date. He served as lieutenant of Squad 1 prior to his promotion to the captaincy of Station 27 in August, 1918. AERO DIGEST IS CHOSEN Named Official Medium for Recording Legion Aviation Activities.
