A most extraordlnaiy recovery of
sight has just taken place in Seward.
Sometime ago Bruce McNutt got hit
in the eye with a bit of flying rock
and the eye seemed to have been com
i pletely smashed out. 1 be doctors
even probed right through the eyeball
to the very back of the eye and no one
j thought the sight had the least
chance of coming back. Even Mr. Me
Nutt himself became resigned and
took his medicine with fine fortitude,
but today the sight has so far been
recovered that he can distinguish be
i tween a man’s collar and tie while
looking at him. That is, he can dis
tinguish it by using only the injured
optic.
BASEBALL DANCE SATURDAY
The baseball boys want everyone to;
know' that they can come to the dance
Saturday night in any sort of clothes.!
There is no necessity for togging up.
Just dress as carelessely as you liko
as you would for your w ife or hus
band, and that is saying something.
But it will be one great dance.
PITTSBURGH KIDS TO GET
HALF THEIR SAVINGS BACK
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
PITTSBURGH, April 19. — Thou
sand of Pittsburgh boys and girls
were delighted today when they got
back half the savings that they
thought were lost forever when the
i Pittsburg Bank For Savings failed
| last December. Whether tho bank
pays it or not, the kids also will get
back the other half of their savings,
because Henry C. Frick, the million
aire steel man, has pledged himself
1 to see that none of the boys and girls,
most of whom have none too much of
this world’s goods anyhow, lose a
j penny by the bank’s failure.
Visiting cards, invitations, anything
pretty is done by the Gatewray just as

GOETHALS EXPECTED TO
OFFER RESIGNATION AGAIN
CANAL IS REOPENED
(Special to Gateway by United Press)
PANAMA, April 15. — Governor
George W. Goethals ofv the Canal
Zone, who withdrew his resignation
and hurried back here from Washing
ton to clear the Canal of the Gaillard
Cut landslides last September, is ex*
pected to reofTcr his resignation to j
President Wilson if there is no prom
ise of further trouble following the
reopening of the Canal today.
Colonel Harding, who has been act
ing governor during GoethaPs absence
in the United States, is expected to
succeed Colonel Goethals as governor,
when the timo comes.
Goethals has not announced that he
will reoffer his resignation, but his
associates here feel sure he will be
cause he asked to be retired undew
the army retirement rule before, think
ing hi3 work in completing the canal
was done.
The earth movements blocking the
canal began last September, about the
time Goethals offered his resignation
to President Wilson in Washington.
At news of the trouble, which pre
vented the passage of the Atlantic
fleet, which was to have attended the
opning of the Panama-Pacific Ex
position, Goethals asked the Presi
dent not to act on his resignation, and
in October he hastened back to
n *
! Panama.
| The canal builder faced a task
j slightly less gigantic thijn the one he
faced in finishing the big project rt
i self. Millions of tons of rock and
; earth have been torn fro mthe collaps
] ed excavations under GoethaPs dircc
| tion, employing bigger dredges and
steam shovels than ever were used be
fore.
Construction work at the terminals
j also has been completed in the mean
time and when the big ships begin
to pass through the canal today, it
will be more advanced in equipment,
more "polished” than it ever has been.
It will be able to handle ships much
more expeditiously than heretofore.
It is not considered improbable that
there will be small slides from time to
time, but no more big ones are looked
for and what there may be are ex
pected to diminish in size from year
to year. There is believed to be no
danger from earthquakes. Goethals
says the defenses of the canal zone
are adequate to repel any enemy.
