FRIDAY EVENING,
Is nine days overdue and for the
eafety of which grave fears are en
tertained. The steamer, with sev
eral hundred passengers on hoard,
arrived oft Morro Castle, on Septem
ber 9, when a great tropical hurri
cane was raging, and, being unable
to enter port put out to sea to watt
for the storm to abate. Faint wire
less calls supposed to come from the
Valbanara have several times been
picked up here and at Key West.
While those who have hoped the
ship was safe are beginning to be
pessimistic over her fate, It is
pointed out that on one former oc
casion she rode out a storm fully
as violent as the one of last week,
reaching port 14 days overdue and
with her upper works virtually
stripped away by mountainous
waves. They say the ship was equip
ped with watertight compartments
and was supposed to be unsinkable.
It is suggested that If other means
of finding the ship prove fruitless
seaplanes may be seat out from Key
West to search for her.

Superintendent Finegan An

Four New Bureaus
Dr. Thomas E. Finegan, the new
State superintendent of public in
strucUon, to-day announced the first
steps in the reorganization of the
Pennsylvania department in charge
of education. Appointment of Dr.
j William D. Lewis, of Philadelphia,
I to be second deputy was formally
' announced and four new bureaus
j established. Further moves in the
comprehensive plans for the reor
! ganization will be announced later
together with various projects for
i the rejuvenation of his branch of
| the State government.
The reorganization plans an
i nounced were the result of a study
I of the department and a series of
conferences with Governor William
! C. Sproul, who has given the new
| superintendent cordial support in
. the work.
Dr. Lewis, who will'have charge
j of secondary education in Pennsyl
] vania, is a graduate of Syracuse
| university and has been at the head
of the William Penn High school
in Philadelphia for several years.
Dr. J. George Becht, for several
years secretary of the State Board
of Education, was appointed first
deputy some time ago.
Dr. Finegan's new bureaus are as
follows:
Administration —W hlch will
handle all fiscal and statistical af
fairs and be in charge of Major
Fred Englehardt, a graduate of
Penn Charter school, Philadelphia,
and Yale university who has done
post graduate work at Columbia
and Harvard. He recently returned
from army service. Major Engle
hardt will be known as director and
I several members of the present
| staff whose duties relate to financial
and statistical work will be placed
in the bureau.
Attendance—Which will be in
I charge of Reed B. Tietrick, of Jef-
I ferson county, deputy State superin
| tendent for several years, and will
have charge of enforcement of
compulsory attendance as Dr. Fine
gan has received information that
this law Is not being closely enforc
ed In some parts of the State and
it will be taken up and vigorously
carried out, he announces.
Health Instruction—Which will
be under Dr. Clinton P. McCord, a
native of Chester county, graduate
of West Chester State Normal
school and of the University of
Pennsylvania and a teacher of six
■ years experience in Pennsylvania
schools and of study in other
States. This bureau, which has
been established after consultation
with Col. Edward Martin. State
Commissioner of Health, will work
in conjunction with the Department
of Health and will organize instruc
tion for all the school children
regularly and systematically in
i health subjects, placing them on
the same plane as other branches
of instruction. There will also be
supervisors of physical training.
One of which will be directed by
Miss Jeanne M. Gray, of Pittsburgh,
a graduate of Pennsylvania College
for Women at Pittsburgh and oth
er institutions and who has resigned
a position in the University of Wis
consin to take this p(ace. Miss
Gray will have special charge of
physical training for girls. It is the
plan to establish a similar bureau
to supervise physical training and
athletics for boys.
Training and Certification of
Teachers—Which will be in charge
of Dr. Albert Lindsay Rowland,
superintendent of Radnor schools,
Delaware county, a former princi
pal of the school of pedagogy at
Philadelphia and a graduate of the
University of Pennsylvania. He will
be director and have charge of a
reorganization of work relating to
the training, examination and cer
tification of teachers.
Col. Martin has extended to Dr.
Fipegan co-operation of his depart
ment in preparation of courses of
study and services of specialists in
health instruction matters.

TOTAL DEAD ON
GULF COAST IS
NEARING 500
Death List Grows Rapidly;
Body Is Identified as
Bishop Nussbaum
By Associated Press.
Corpus Christi, Tex„ Sept. 19. —
Rapid growth of the death list re
sulting from the hurricane and
tidal wave that swept Corpus Christ!
and nearby points Sunday caused
the belief among the relief workers
and local officials that the total dead
would approximate five "hundred
persons. Estimates of the property
loss runs as high as $20,000,000.
Redouble Efforts
With a large amount of territory
still to be explored, searchers to
day redoubled their efforts to rdcover
bodies of persons who lost their
lives in the gulf hurricane.
That dozens of persons who lost
their lives probably never will be
identified was the belief expressed
as reports came in that burial par
ties were interring bodies as rap
idly as found for sanitary reasons.
To-day 284 bodies had been re
ported buried and of that number
only 82 identified. Fifty-seven bodies
had been buried here.
Relief Measures Under Way
Relief measures for relieving the
distress of the 3,000 or 4.000 per
sons made homeless by the storm
were reported to be progressing sat
isfactorily.
A rescue party started to-day to
Mustang island, where 11 persons
who were on board the wrecked
launch Waldo are marooned.
Among the dead in Sunday's gulf
hurricane here. identified. was
Bishop Paul J. Nussbaum, of Corpus
Christi.
San Antonio, Tex., Sept. 19.
Bishop Paul J. Nussbaum. of Corpus
Christi, reported among the identi
fied dead there, has been at Corpus
Christi since 1913 and has been a
member of the Paulist Order. He
served as missionary in Buenos
Aires and other points in the Argen
tine Republic, was stationed at
Rome for several years and for the
five preceding 1913 conducted mis
sions and retreats in eastern states.
He was born in Philadelphia and
was ordained a priest twenty-five
years ago.

says, "which with millions at its dls-1
