Rei ently March 29 was named as ihe day for the annual inspection of the city schools. The girls at Central high immediately decided to extend an invitation to the directors to come to the domestic science kitchen for their noonday meal. As a result nine hungry and happy men eagerly wended their way to the basement of the school to-day to sample the cook inn of the girls, who were busy all morning "getting ready." Miss Fran ees Hamilton, instructor, supervised the pit. is, but let the girls do the work. And the directors turned in a unanimous decision that those eirls can't be beaten. In the party were Harrv A. Bover president of the board; F. K. Downes superintendent of city schools: D. d' 1 lammelbaugh, secretary: William A. 8011, Adam I>. Houtz. Millard F. Saul Harry M.

Va„ March 29. The <";• rman auxiliary cruiser Prinz Eitel Friedrich still lay at her dock to-dav apparently no more prepared to make a dash for sea than at any other time during the last week, but the activities Mil around her convinced local officials that some definite step soon would be taken either to intern the raider or send her out. The elusive report, current in armv " a l> v cirfle *. that Commander I hlerrichens was readv to go but awaited assurances that the United States would protect him within the three-mile limit from the hostile cruis ers which have been blocking every lane out past the Virginia Capes, would not down. Other than two torpedoboats and one submarine daylight disclosed no other American ships in these water* although battleships were reported throughout the night gathering to protect American neutrality. The time limit of the Eitel's stay was still an official secret but there was a well-defined report that it ex pires within the next 48 hours. One report that the Eitel will be towed to New York within the three-mile limit is not taken seriously by officials, who beliexe her draft, even though now light, would not permit her to navi gate so close to the shores.

Isn't An Unusual Bargain "Certainly I shall not urge the pas sage of this measure until after the Planning Commission has had a chance to look it over," said Mr. Tay lor. "The Cotineilmen expect to go up there this afternoon but I can't say when the Planning Commission will do so. The members may also go up [this afternoon. I "In urging the purchase of this plot I'm not going to do so with the idea that this is an unusual bargain. Ido not say It is. But I tio say it is certainly an ideal playground site, and that the price at which it is offered, is fair and reasonable. The assessment for the property of $11,500, I do not think is a matter for consideration in this instance because the assessment is hardly indicative of value. The Polyclinic hospital site alone was of fered to us for $15,000; from the pres ent owners we now could buv that site for $14,700.
