Miss Margaret Fox was lying In the Hack- ensack Hospital with a possible frac- ture of the skull; her chum, Miss Loretta Dalton,” was out under a $500 bond as a material witness, and the police were looking for the two men. Realizing that Miss Fox's condi- tion would not permit questioning, the police focused their attention on her companion, and after she was discharged from the hospital at noon she was taken to the prosecutor’s office. First the girl told the police that she did not know what had happened. but she helleved the car had turned over.

Secouting Develops Leaders. A recent repert of Admiral Wilson, superintendent of the Naval Academy at_Annapolis, to Col. Theodore Roose- velt, assistant Secretary of the Navy, gives added proof to the fact al- ready known that the Boy Scouts program develops qualities of leader- ship in its members, increasing their likelihood of advancement.

Admiral Wilson’s report shows that of 2,396 -midshipmen enrolled at Annapolis, January last, 915, or over 38 per cent, had been members of the Boy Scouts of America.
