Fundamentalists who quote cer tain scientists ae a basis for dis belief In evolution quote state ments made before science discov ered the true relationship between body cells and their ancestors, Dr. David Starr Jordan, noted educa tor and chancellor emeritus of Stan turd university, declared In an nddre.se yeBterday. - Disclosure of the fact that each cell in the body of man and ani mals contains a plan similar to that of Its ancestors and that In the neucleus of each cell the qual ity of heredity Is imbedded, said Dr. Jordan is the greatest scien tific discovery In the last half cen tury. Every scientific man believes in evolution tot.o. It is a scientific fact that man and ape have the same blood in their veins and the sume anatomy. Apes differ from monkeys, huvever. This has been proven by injecting the blood of a monkey into the veins of an ape. Tho ape dies when this is done. The blood of the.ape, however, can be injected into the veins of a man and It mingles with the man's iilood without ill effect." LIGHTWEIGHTS MATCHED Los Angeles, wal..

CHURCH1L L TO KEEP BOTH JOBS UNTIL SPRING J. A. Churchill will continue to serve in the dual capacity of state superintendent of public Instruc tion and president of the new Abu land normal school until such time as his duties as head of the normal school demand his entire time and attention. This was Mr. Churchill's reply this morning to a query as to whether he contem plated resigning ae superintend ent in the near future. Mr. Churchill was elected presi dent of the new normal last March, but up to the present time his work in that capacity has not been heavy, and he said that it was the desire of the board of re gents not to burden the state with the expense of maintaining two offices when the work of both could be done by one man for the time being. He does not antici pate that bis new position will re quire more time than he can spare from hie duties as state superin tendent until some time next spring. The present plan is to have the Ashland normal ready to open for summer courses next June, and regular work will commence in September, 1926. Mr. Churchill will prepare the course of study for the new school this winter after a trip of about hIx weeks to visit similar institu tions in the east. He plans o leave on his trio about the middle of September. EXPLOSION OF BOILER FATAL TO 29 (Continued from Page One.) lexa than 100 yarda from shore, otherwise the casualty list would have been terrible, passengers said today. The Mockanlc was a one fun nel steamer equipped with 750 horse power engines. Her gross tonnage was 512 and her net ton nage 336. She was 162 feet long, Safe Milk and Diet For infanta, Invalids, The Aged NourishinR Digestible No Cooking. i&T Avoid Imitations Subititutet U8.2 feet beam and 12 feet deep. She waa built In 1909. The excur sion Uta, Included many women and children. Many aboard were em ploye of the J. and P. Coates company, thread manufacturers in Paw tucket. Tho company had declared a holiday for the outing. Patch Gives Away A patch on the boiler, which had been placed there Just before the departure of the boat gave way, exploding the boiler and throwing the passengers into a panic. Captain Thomas McVey of Pawtucket, the Bkippcr, said the boat was traveling 15 knots an hour, Its fullest speed, and was loaded to its capacity. In a statement made to the As sociated Press, shortly after the ac cident, Captain McVey said: "I was in the pilot house with Pilot Thomas and Quartermaster Spenard, when we heard a con cussion, aft. This was followed im mediately by the hissing of escap ing steam and the entire vessel was enveloped with a steaming mist. Then the engines stopped sudden ly and I gave the wheel a yank and headed It to the beach, where its own momentum grounded It shortly after." Passengers who described the scene said it was one of tremen dous confusion. Confusion Avoided A distress signal was Immediate ly sent out by the wireless opera tors and boats from the forty na val ships in the cove rushed to the rescue. Passengers on the two lower docks were the victims, observers said, especially those amidships near the boiler room. Those on the top deck for tho most part escap ed with minor injuries. The com mands of the officers were obey ed to the letter by the stricken passengers, those who came out unscratched said today. Immedi ately there was a rush for the rails. Two men are known to have Jumped overboard and were picked up by passing boats. Others climbed to the gunwales and at tempted to reach the top deck. Helping hands were lowered to aid m 'J-y. them in their ruh to safely. Bouts were lowered when It was thought the craft was going to sink while life rafts and deck gear were toss ed overboard. Many of the victims failed to hear the report and their first warn ing was the swift rush of deadly steam which trapped them. Those who saw the disaster from the shore described a large burst of black smoke which shot from the steamer. This was followed by the steam which enveloped the entire boat. As McVey beached the ship launches sent out by the battleship Wyoming, the scour cruisers Den ver and Raleigh, the tender Dob bin and scores of torpedo boat de stroyers swarmed about.
