The appointment of M21. Anderson
came about after considerable discus-
sion as .to salary. The Amoricaniza—
tion classes last over ii. period of four
months and Mrs. Anderson asked for
$600 for this period of time. William
P. \Vard thought that the contract for
Mrs. Anderson should be such that the
board would have control ,over her
timo for the entire year. After much
discussion. it was voted to engage Mrs.
Anderson at the stated salary for such
n. period of time as would be approv-
ed by the State Dom-d of Education.
Mrs. Anderson is a graduate of Ohio
State iversity. Columbus. Ohio. and

Miss 1g; 40. Wenderothi peéuuvo
secretary of the Norwaik Chapter of
the Bad Cross. appeared before the
Board of Education at its meeting at
the‘Norwalk High school last night.
and urged the formation of a Junior
Red Crow Council in the local public
schooli. The project was received
with much into t and enthusiasm
by the board which appointed Dr.
George G. Fawcett. Dr. William ,J.
Tracey and Superintendent of Schools
0. V. Buchan'in a committee to in-
vestigate further and report back at
action.
In introducing the plan. Miss .Wen-
derotb told the board that the idea.
was to have one or two members of
the school board on the Junior Red
Cro- Council together with two or
three teachers to supervise tho work
of that organization. -
"Each room should have one‘agent
to be elected." said Miss Wendertoth.
“These would represent the individual
school. In turn this body would elect
one its members as a member of a
Central council who meet in the Nor-
walk High school once a month to
plan and sketch out work of the or-
ganization. The pupils would elect
their own oflcsrs. transact their own
business under the supervision of the
Board of Education members. Teach-
ers. one. _ »«
Continuing Misc Wenderoth said.
"We have $779 for playground equip-
ment. We. think it would be a good
idea for us to pay for lumber and
allow the manual training department
of the schools make the equipment.
Then the numeric“ over could be
used for baseballs. mitts. etc. This
equipment‘lhould be turned over the
Board of Education eventually. An-
other reuson-for the organisation of
the Junior Red Cross Council is that
tho girls studying thn art of speech-
making could gain poise ,, 11‘2”

2 o’Clock Yesterday
Accident
L
John Wuensky of Edgewood road
died at the Norwalk Hospital at 10:80
.o'cloc; last night from injuries sus-
tuned about 2 o'cIOck yesterday after-
noon. when a wagonin which he was
driving over Witch Lane. was struck
by a Norwalk-bound trolley car in
charge of Conductor Charles Buck-
nm, and operated by Motor-man
Willis. mRust. With Wan-emu was
16-year-old Harold Hussey of 87 Ely
who was helping Wasensky
move some lumber from the Shipping
Board plant. and who was riding on
the seat with him. An inquest into
the death will be held tomorrow after-
noon at 2:80. Hu-ey is also injured
but will recover it is believed.
Jud what happened is a matter of
conjecture. as the motor-man mid that
the first he knew of Wasensky's pres—
ence win when the wagon loomed .up
in front. of him. with Wasenlev saw-
ing attbe reins iii an effort to stop
l
tempted to bolt across the tracks. eith-
er losing its footing coming down the
supp grade to the trolley tracks. or
also becoming frightened by the warn-
ing whistle of the approaching trolley.
There is no other way that the acci—
dent oangbe accounted for by people
who have viewed the spot where .the
accident took place.
The horse was uninjured. the wagon
.being ripped loose from the shafts and
being dragged a distance of some 70
feet, towards the Standard {Oil plant
before the car was brought to a. stop.
A list of the witnesses of’ the acci- '
dent were obtained by the trolley crew
and the poilce today are conducting
an investigation to learn what the wit.
neme- know. so as to have; then: at
tho mum tomorrow afternoon. -.
.goronsr Phelan was here this after;
noon at 3:18 o'cIOck and togitber with
Medical Examiner Samuel H. Hunting-
ton who is also conducting an invastb
fition. went to the scene of the acci-
dent and examined the ground.
Waunsky was on his way down
Witch Lane. driving the horse‘ and
wagon. en route to the Shipping Board
plant to load some lumber that he had
purchased. 0n the seat with him was
young Harry Hui-3y of Ely avenue.
As they era-ed the tracks the Nor-
waih<bound trolley car. in charge'of
