A delegation from the Delaware Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals and the Delaware Humane Association visited Mt. Pleasant High School yesterday to find out what bioiogy classes planned to do with dogs they sought to obtain after the animals had been destroyed in the Euthanair at the SPCA Shelter.

The delegation, headed by Mrs. Elmer F. Cunningham, SPCA president, and Mrs. K. C.

Johnson, chairman of animal welfare of the DHA, spoke first with Principal E. R. Schwinger then with Anthony DiAngelis, one of the school's biology instructors. Mr. DiAngelis explained that dogs the SPCA Shelter had trona been provided in previous years through an arrangement which he had assumed to be known by the organization.

He added that he was expecting delivery of two dogs from the shelter momentarily. Mrs. Cunningham, however, had stopped delivery. explained today that no dogs had been given to anyone such purposes since the present officers of the SPCA took over last June. There may have been such case before that, she added.

Vice Principal Charles H. Bomboy and DiAngelis disclosed that preserved animals from reputable biological laboratories are used for most classroom experiments at Mt. Pleasant School. Mr. Bomboy explained, however, that a keener comprehension of the circulatory system and other functions is possible from study of the animal in a recently expired state.

"Immediately after expiration," he said, "blood pressure studies can be made, blood corpuscles checked, and foul odors are avoided." The SPCA under its by-laws contracts to provide animals for research only to one local professional technician whose requests are passed upon by committee. No request is sanctioned without assurance of a non-surviving, non- suffering experiment. Masonic Club Speaker Dr. Haymond W.
