The company has always had considerable pride In tho landscap- ing which beautifies one side at least of the grounds and Is striving to restore things as tar as may be possible. Some of the smaller trees which were prone have been set up straight and it is hoped that they will flourish again. Considerable loss was caused by the high tide which over-flowed most of the premises and poured into the cellars where fittings were stored. Many tons ot such fittings win have to be removed and var- iously treated to remove all trace of damage. Three shifts working the full round ot twenty-four hours liave been.put to work to restore things to a normal condition as soon as possible. The company greatly appreciates 'the aid given b y t h e fire depart- mBnt-'ln:"pimiping^'*'-oiSt'^the"witcr from the cellars and thanks them as well as the effective and prompt work of so many ot its employees in the emergency.

Postpone Public Inspections At Malleable Iron

Because the hurricane has upset the usual routine ot the Malleable Iron Fittings Company in so many ways it has been decided to post­pone the inspections by the citizens of the town, the employees and other friends from October until November.

The company has always had considerable pride In tho landscap­ing which beautifies one side at least of the grounds and Is striving to restore things as tar as may be possible. Some of the smaller trees which were prone have been set up straight and it is hoped tha t they will flourish again.

Considerable loss was caused by the high tide which over-flowed most of the premises and poured into the cellars where fittings were stored. Many tons ot such fittings win have to be removed and var­iously treated to remove all trace of damage.

Three shifts working the full round ot twenty-four hours liave been.put to work to restore things to a normal condition as soon as possible.

The company greatly appreciates 'the aid given b y t h e fire depart-mBnt-'ln:"pimiping^'*'-oiSt'^the"witcr from the cellars and thanks them as well as the effective and prompt work of so many ot its employees in the emergency.

Business was greatly hampered by the cutting off of mail service dur Ing last week and the inflow of or ders and the outgo of goods was not resumed in any quantity until the first of this week.

A successful battle was fought by the meclianical and outside em ployees to maintain power at the factory and to supply power to the power company where it was badly needed.

As late as two o'clock power was being received as usual from the Conn. Light Si Power Co. and with no indication of impending failure but suddenly at three o'clock the company telephoned that the sup ply of power was about to fail.

The Malleable Iron under the dl rection ot Mr. Ernest G. L. Craig, the master mechanic, was able al most at once to revert to the old and reliable method of producing power by steam upon their own premises.

There was some steam in the boil­ers and the ftres under them were forced ond in a few minutes the Corliss engine was turning over and with it the dynamos and sulTlclent power was produced tor all factory purposes and in addition the cur­rent was reversed over the power

Sunday Sdhools of the worm "Wliidh use the International Lessons will lie making an Intensive study of The Ten Commandments, a rhymed version of Which given above, has boon used In New Englond families for genelatlons. One wonders If the whole world would bb In the terrible straits Which It faces now. If those anclpnt commandments had not been nllo\vod to fall litto ncijlect. If not actual djsroputo. Since It Is as trup n<5w OS It olways has boon that "Righteousness exttltoth a na­tion, but sin Is a reproach to any people," It surely Is high time for •us to examine the 'foundations of our natienol, as wdll os dur 'per­sonal life, that wo may,-if possible, recover the Ijlgh moral and religious standards of the New England pl-bneors and patriots.

"Thou slialt have no other gods before mo," "The One True God." So road the first commandment and

the topic of next Sundays lesson. In our community there are few who would not give lip service to those sayings perhaps, but let us look a bit deeper, Some one has said that a man A real god Is that from whom he oxpoots help, to whom he gives his supremo loyalty.' How about It? Do we put the Mas-tor's service first, or give Him the tag ends of our time, our talents, our money? Do we put ourselves first, always looking out for "Num­ber One," or are wo like the college student who had a placard on his wail, "I'm third"? Asked Its meaning, ho said his mother card on his wall, "I'm third"? Asked Its meaning, he said his mother taught him to pUt Qod first, others second, himaolf t hird. What a transformation It would make In our lives If all of us, or even Ju.5t the Christians so-called, would adopt this rule. Lot us search our hearts and pray the prayer of tho hymn;

"The dearest Idol I havo known, Whate'er that Idol be,

power of the Almighty, But I do not believe for a mo-j

ment that our Heavenly Father de-ilberately sends disaster to ihis children; any more than we would to ours. Many people seem to think so, and thoy often speak of fire, pestllchce, flood, famine, and storm sent upon the world os chas­tisement for some sin. There Is mis­ery enough without believing that we are at the mercy of some groat power who might In some savage moment destroy us, "God Is our refuge and strength; a very prcnent help in timo of trouble," But He |s not tho Cause of our troubles, j

Wo are In a world of law and or-; dor. The world Is full of great for­ces that act according to fixed laws. If God should'*lntorferc with the orderly working of these laws no ono can Imagine tho oatastrophe that would result.

Now what happened was some­thing lite this: we had had a long spoil of worm weather and a great deal of ruin. Somewhere down In tho southern seas there was form­ed a groot area of low pressure. That Is, a place whore the pres­sure of tho atmosphere was far be­low normal. Suppose a large kettle, empty, was pressed away down In­to tho wator, then it was suddenly lifted out. Prom every direction tho water would rush to fill up the va­cant place. Now a great pocket of air acts the Same way. There comes a disturbance and cold air from above rushes to level up this area of low pressure. This place of dis­turbance starts to move from tho southwest part of the country to­ward 'the north oast.If tho area of low pressure has been very groat the Storm will be severe. Of course someone will -pipe up and tell me thot I.om a Ipndlubbor and ought to know thotstorms come from the east. But thoy do not. They come from tho southwest. Tho wind blows toward the storm center, Wlien the center passes by us then the wind blows 'from the west ond we have oloor weather.

We have learned how to control may of the forces of nature, and in time will doubtless find out how to make these great disturbances less destructive. Meanwhile let us not noubt the goodness and mercy of our Heavenly Father,

There was no personal Injury reported; The orchards were hard hit, both by the fallen fruit and the uproot­ing of trees.

A SECOND REPORT to the telephone users

of CONNECTICUT

Since we reported to you in the newspapers last Friday, it !has become

apparent that obstacles delaying the complete restoration of telephone service

'have been even greater and more numerous than we then anticipated.'In isome

places, for example, wc have had to wait for flood waters to recedcbeforc start­

ing reconstruction of telephone lines. Elsewhere, although t r e e s h a v e b e e n

rapidly cleared from the center of the highway, t h e i r complete removal has

been necessary before the work of replacing broken poles could begin. In the

many country districts, construction and supply truckis'have been impeded, and

in some instances blocked entirely, by trees and road washouts.

As these conditions are being overcome, repair work is proceeding at a

faster rate. Our own regular forces have been supplemented by 33 telephone

line crews, complete with trucks, tools and equipment, by 53 cable s p l i c i n g

crews, and by approximately 250 installers and repairmen, all from other tele­

phone companies in New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Delaware, 'Virginia,^

Ohio, ,nnd the District of Columbia. M e n who left their homes at sue o'clock

last Thursday mornihg are now working side by side w i t h o u t o w n p e o p l e

throughout the state. More are available if and when they can be used effect­

ively. They will help us. by day and by night, in the tremendous job of ere«-

ing at least 2,500 new ipolcs—stringing millions of feet of wire—«pIiclMg thou­

sands of wires in cables and tracing and connecting each wire to the proper cen­

tral office equipment and to the proper telephone at the Other end of :the'line.

Your wish and ours is for the earliest possible completion of this .job.

Engaged dircrtly in it are altogether 241 Completely equipped crews and 1^124

installers, repairmen, equipment maintenance men, engineers, ietc., bn Individ­

ual jobs—a grand total of 2i017 men. Progress during the last t w e n t y - f o u r

hours has been encouraging. W e shall report further to you within a few days.

•In the meantime we acknowledge with grateflil appreciation your patience and

co-operation,

RADIO IN THE FLAT

Ono feature of a huildinge.xhihi-tion recently opened in London is a (lat designed to prevent the sound of a radio in it passing be­yond its walls. This should prove a most Vttlunblu imi)rovement; for wlion tho concert of Europe is per­formed, with nobs on everywhere, and a full oast, the modern block of apartmonta is often another Tower of Babel.

Then does tho British (lat-dwol-lor, finding himself the center of a Rome-Berlin clash, or a Paris-London jangle, become a whole­hearted isolationist; and it is not to be wondered a t if he should, feel that there is no alternative but to come on tho air too, or to go up in it. In fact, in self-dofoiise, the in­habitants aro liable to set up a vicious oirelo of noise, against which tho, walls of any who remain silent olTer as little resistance as those of aneiont Jericho.

JUMP THE THIRD By Abbott C. Page

There were three shepherd dogs, black with white markings. They were somewhat smaller than the Scotch collie. •

Those,three dogs, each named, "Jump', ruled successively about equal periods over the animal life on the farm of Edgar D. Pago by Great Hill, the outermost farm to the north of the township. They rounded up the sheep and cattle. They kept within bounds the ro­dents of tho field. They were good guard dogs and, on occasion, would bark at the man In the moon

"Jump the Third" was my body­guard, playfellow, companion and helper. In my late boyhood and early manhood. We playe^ and rac ed on the lee and went hunting to­gether. He was a matter-jn-faot canine, performed no tricks, had been taught none

THE SHOE PINCHES

When a man howls you can bet he has been hurt. Honco it is inter­esting to watch the reds, the jjiiiks aiid the niauves shout insults at the Dies Congressional Committee investigating un-American activi­ties. . '.:,

If ^orb spots had not been touched, Conimunisls would not have pijlkelodGomniiltee meeting places. Nor would other Communists and sympathizers have rushed into print with caustic criticisms instead of factual answers to information uncovered by the Committee.

Neither would attempts have been made to lead tho country into believing that the Coinmitteo had accused Shirley Temple of being a red when all it did was receive testimony that her agents unwittingly had allowed her name to be used by the reds.

Developinenits to date apparently tend to minimize doubts as to the merit of the invcstigution. True, the study is not yet over. But so far the Committee has shown pretty well that the only interest it Iins in "isms" is to protect Amevicanism and to show the extent of alien propaganda in this eouiitry.

WASHINGTON SNAPSHOTS

By JAMES PRESTON

One of the nicest things tha t can be .said about the report of the Na­tional Resources Committee on In­come dLstrlbutlon Is that It gives Wa-shlngton something to talk about besides purges, preparedness and panacea.*?.

At arm-waving "parlor-pink" teas It is held up as absolute prodf that one-third of the nation Is "un der-prlvllegcd" because another "cla.s.'i" Is "over-prlvllcgcd". Hence It becomes an argument for socialism.

In more serious d'scusslons, how­ever, the many flaws In the report arc discussed. And the flaws are so Important tha t Its value as a fac­tual document Is subject to serious question.

For Instance, the report purports to show the "under-privileged third" had an annual average In come of only $471. But the report was based on a sampling of only 1 per cent of the total population, not sclentlflcally chosen. Furthermore, 18 states and 2,00t> counties were not even sampled. It appears to some that only the low Income areas could have been studied.

To top even that , the report com­pared total rather than net incomes I t made no reference whatever to the proportion of bigger 'Incomes taken by tho government in feder­al taxes alone, running as high as 83 per cent.

Still .further, the report found about 20,000,000 families in the na­tion. Put tha t alongside 28,000,000 automobiles registered arid you'll see that a considerable portion of the "under-privileged third" was at least able to drive automobiles up to the WPA pay check windows.

The dog leap­ed over tho fence and caught one there, and one was found in tho deadfall trap. The deadfall trap consisted of a flat stone held up by a figure four, of tliree sticks.

A carpenter from tlie Queach, passing dally, grew tired of "Jump's" barking, to hurry him along," I suppose, and gave the dog a revolver shot. The bullet glanced from a rib and passed along under the skin a few Inches from tho wound with little effect.

118 Main Street, Branford, Conn.

In early boyhood I was quite fond of a little song used in public schools, entitled "Hurrah for Old New England" as I remember.

Hearing it sung after the lapse of many years by Mr. James A. How-arth for a long time postmaster of New Haven, at some entertainment it so revived my wish for the old song that I wrote Mr. Howarth in 1920 asking for the words. They are as follows:

"This is our own our native land Tho' poor and rought she be The home of many a noble soul The blrtliplace of the free. We love her rocks and rivers Her woods and templed hills Hurrah for Old New England, And her cloud capped granite

hills.

They tell us of our freezing clime Our hard and rugged soil Which hardly half repays us for Our Springtime care and toll. Yet gaily sings the merry boy As the homestead farm he tills Hurrah for Old New England. And her cloud capped granite

hills.

Others may seek the Western clime

They say 'tis passing fair That sunny are its laughing skies And soft its balmy air. We'll linger round our childhood

home Till age our warm blood chills Till we die on Old New England And sleep beneatli her hills. Hurrah for Old New England, And her cloud capped granite

hills. Mr. Howarth said this was or

iginally composed In New Hamp­shire and a third verse referred to Daniel Webster. This has been de leted to make It a New England re fraln.

NEW HAVEN CO-OP EXPANDS Cooperative Consumers, Incorpor­

ated of New Haven has leased the adjoining store a t 224 George Street where a modern meat department and a clothing department will be Installed. This was the decision ot the membership a t a meeting held this month. I t was also decided to enlarge the co-op electrical appli­ance and auto accessory lines.

Tn four years, the original New Ha?en Consumers Club has grown from half a dozen members who pooled their grocery orders to tho full-fledged . present store which carries a complete line of groceries. About 300 families now belong to the co-op. A new delivery truck was purchased with capital put up by the membership a few months ago. The most recent addtlon to the store Is the refrigerated show case for cold cuts, butter and cheese.

The co-op has contracts with var­ious merchants for such services as dry cleaning, laundry, watch and shoe repairing, prescriptions, coal and oil and paints. These contract sales through the co-op amounted to $8,080 for the first six months of 1938. Actual sales in tho co-op store amounted to almost $10,000 for the same period making a total of near­ly $25,000. A purchase refund of two per,cent was paid to the members in proportion to the amount of their purchases.

This consumer-owned and con­trolled business is growing by leaps and bounds. When the original half dozen members met In their homes four years ago to pool 10 and 15 dollar orders, little did they think of the line modern present store— and yet—knov/ing that If they stuck to cooperative principles, growth and expansion was inevitable.

After a few months when the membership had grown to a score or so a small hallroom store was rented. A member who was handy wltli tools erected a few shelves. A very modest stock of goods was bought. Volunteer lielp manned the "store" a few hours several days a week. In 1936, the club moved to a larger room and the following year saw them in a small but regular store a t 29 Orange Street, New Ha­ven.

.'ibout a year ago the Consumers' Club incorporated. I t employed two full time workers and one part time worker. I t now employs five full time paid workersandmucl i addi­tional volunteer help. Working con­ditions are good and all employees are given annual vacations with pay.

p . M. Gallombard is the manager Lou Walton runs the delivery truck and d ia r i e s Brittlngham Is clerk. The bookkeeping Is done by Milton Erickson. The new meat depart­ment in the enlarged store will be supervised by William Tensteldt.

The store has a library of coop­erative literature which helps to educate nev^'roembers to the coop­erative way of doing business. Near­ly half of the 300 members belong to the credit union which enables them to borrow money at extreme­ly low rates and at the same time offers a safe place for savings. The The Cooperative Consumers Feder­al Credit Union is one of the 13 credit unions operated in New Ha­ven. Cither credit unions are run by the employees of Sargent's, Gilbert's Majestic Laundry, Sperry Barnes, American Steel and Wire Company, and St. Boniface Parish to name a

Mr. J. Edwin Brainard, after two months illness is now able to be out or doors.

40 per cent more money in circula­tion this September than at the same time In 1929; that there is 25 per cent more money in bank ac­counts and that we have about 200 per cent more gold than we had in the most active financial year in history. Then the Reserve Board points out that although bank de­posits are near an all-time high, the turnover of these deposits "is a t the lowest rate on record." , •

Many Washington observers be­lieve tlie answer to the economic problem lies in tha t last Item about "turnover", They suggest that the question, therefore, should not be "how can more money be provided?' but "how can people be persuaded to use the enormous supply of mon­ey tha t is already available?"

All of which leads back to the theory the theorists refuse to aC' cept—that the country's Job-ereat Ing capital wealth is frozen by the fear of future uncertainty. Most economists estimate there are mil-Hops of Jobs in private enterprise held up by restrictive laws and ar­bitrary taxation.

There's a new "perpetual motion cycle" being talked about around Washington. It 's described as the philosophy of some politicians, to wit: Tha t the unemployed should be kept unemployed so employed pqlltl6ians could remain employed employing the unemployed lest the politician become unemployed.

few of them. Incidentally, St. Boni­face Parish Federal Credit Union was the first religious credit union to recleve a federal charter in the United States.

Another service rendered to the members of Cooperative Consum­ers, Incorporated is the Plan for Hospital Care. By paying 50 cents a month a member Is entitled to three weeks hospital care each year a t Grace Hospital, Hospital of St. Rahpael or the New Haven Hospi­tal.

Thus Cooperative Consumers of New Haven is fulfilling need after need of loyal cooperative members, or, to put it a better way, the mem­bers themselves are fulfilling their own needs. Even greater t han the flnanclal savings of cooperative buying is the education of demacra-tlc methods learned by working cooperatively together.

niOVIES GO CO-OP The first cooperative movie thea­

tre in the United States, a modern, air-condltloned theatre with the finest available projection and sound equipment, opened in Green-belt, Maryland, September 21. The theatre, which seats 600, was de­signed for the comfort of the con­sumer-owners, and as a result the seats are more ample and the aisles are much wider than usually found in a movie house. The leading mo­tion picture companies in the United States will supply the pic­tures which will be selected by a committee of consumer-owners.

The theatre will show movies four evenings a week a t present with a matinee for children on Sat­urday afternoon. A committee of children elected by the coopera­tives in the high school and gram­mar school and the Junior Citizens Association, will have charge of the Saturday matinees and the selec­tion of the pictures. "Efforts have been made to improve children's movies, usually by parents, but Greenbelt is going bh'e step further by giving the cliiidren a chance to say what movies they want to see. This par t ot the experiment will be watclied with interest," declared Herbert E. Evans, vice-president of Consumer Distribution Corpora­tion, which is assisting in the de­velopment of the cooperative enter­prises a t Greenbelt.

The theatre is equipped for thea­trical productions, concerts and lectures as well as motion pictures. 'Telegrams from co-ops and civic leaders' Congratulating t h e ' Green­belt citizens on their venture in cooperative entertainment poured in before the official opening of the theatre. The keys of the co-op theatre were turned over to the cit­izens of Greenbelt by Percy S. Brown, president of the Consumer Distribution Corporation and ex­ecutive director of the Good Will Fund established by the late Ed­ward A. Fllene.

ANTI-CHAIN STORE LEGISLATION

A year ago, Representative Wright Patman of Texas announced he would introduce a bill in the next Congress to tax the chain stores out of existence. The chain stores have remained strangely silent un­til a week or two ago when the A. & P. in a 2,000 word advertisement opened a chain tax offensive.

The advertisement was signed,by John Hartford, president of A &P and George L. Hartford, chairman ot the board, both of wliom in a statement of public policy, spoke at some length on the Interest of management, employees, the con­sumer, the farmer, and labor.

Representative Patmap has been singularly successful in getting his proposed legislation enacted into law In the past. This antl-ohaln store bill would impose prohibitive taxes on chain store with the effect of literally taxing them out of ex­istence. The bill has support ot in­dependent stores which have them selves formed what they call vol­untary associations. I t is these as­sociations which maintain a pow­erful lobby to pu t the chains to death.

Much more will be said in this column on the Importance of every consumer doing all possible to de-teat this bill. This Is no brief for particular chain stores but Is an earnest plea for the right of a par­ticular method of, distribution to continue In business. Already, su­permarkets have been taxed out of existence In several states. If chain stores are eliminated through Mr, Patman's federal legislation, tiie way is open to kill mall-order house and cooperatives or any other form of distribution that offers competi­tion to the so-called independent stores. If this happens, every con­sumer will be at the mercy of the greatest monoply this country has ever known. It Is a distinct step to­ward Fascism, Think it over and decide for yourselves if you will be told where to buy your commodi­ties—and at fhted prices to boot. .

Every resource to speedily restore service is being employed by the company. All the manpower experi­enced in line work and all the trucks and equipment that the company can muster inside and outside the organiza­tion are being brought into this area. Our employees and those assisting them are working continuously with never a thought to, their well-being.

With sincere appreciation, we acknowledge the val­uable assistance extended by municipal authorities and state departments.

We are deeply grateful to our customers for their whole-hearted cooperation and patience, and we wiflh to assure everyone that we are doing our best to justify the confidence shown in us.

Fight One More Round Gentleman Jim Corbctt was prob

ably tho best boxer who ever step­ped Into the ring. He was a master of the art of self-defense. In his autobiography • Corbett points out that each fighter' ' lias the same equipment—two arms, two legs, a body aii'd a Head. The biBWs it ;ls lib.sslblb to uSe are few—not more than twenty In ail. What then is tills statement: "Fight one roundl Wlion your feet arc .so tired you have to shuffle back to tho center of tho

ring—fight one more round. Wlien your arms are so tired that ydli can hardly lift your hands to come on guard—fights one more round. When your nose Is bleeding arid you eyes are black and you are so tir ed that you wish your opponent would crack you on the jaw and pilt you to sleep— fight one more round —remembering (that the man who always fights one more round Is never whipped."

Corbett praotisod what he preach

Football colors of the Branford Laurels came near being lowered in their first game of the season at iflammer Field last Sunday after­noon before a fairly , large crowd, wheii a plucky band of gridiron war riors from New Haven invaded the Laurel lair. Foi- much of the first half of the game the Issiie was in doiibt, but at last the Harrison-coached football machine, dfetermin ed not to be shuntecl from, the main road of victories, tiriiimphed by a 2 to 0 score.

Entering what fans called the iiidst exciting battle, the new, young scrappy Branford Laiirels shoWefl that they have plenty of Speed, power, fight and ability. Although tlie Qreen Wave did not win by a decisive margin, the;)' pushed the: highly vaunted Qiiails all dvei; 'the' field, outplaying them from start to finish, rolling up seven first downs to the New Haveners two,

With but a few minutes left of the first half a Branford lineman broke through the Quail defense and nail­ed the opposing bail carrier behind; their own goallne for a safety, the only score of the game. The Laurels, were In scoring position twice -but in eaoli instance time did not per­mit. The first half they lost the ball on down on the two yard stripe and second time the game ended with tho Green Wave ' haying the ball Just inches of a touchdown and the whistle sounded.

For the Harrison coached com­bine, Georgie (Killer) Torrelli, full­back, proved to be one of the com­ing outstanding backs in this vic­inity. As a whole, the entire team pltiyed good ball with the excep­tion of times when theyplayod rag­ged, due to the lack ot practice be­cause bf the Inclement Weather we, have had th'e past week. ;'

Green Wave Eleven In Great Shape In

Battle At Local Field Coach "Ducky" Harrison Puts Pressure On Laurel Team In Pre­

paration For Big Game With Savin Rock Combine—^^Large Crowd Expected To Be On Hand For Game—Kickoff Sec For 2:30

Victors in tlieir first tiuigh game with the New Haven Quails last week end, the Branford Laurels will have to show much more ab­ility Sunday afternoon at Hammer Field if they want to knock off tH6 Sturdy Savin Rock eleven of West Haven. At 2:30 o'clock the battle will begin.

It Is generally felt that the Green Wave players httve passed through the hccessary trial period that ev­ery nbwly organised team has to unddrfeo, and they are expected to show class for the rest of the season. In their first, game they ^have shown flashes of powbr which shows what they can be expected to db Wheh the tBam becomes sea­soned. It Can be taken for granted that the local elub will turn loose .against the Savin Rock combine this wi!ek.

With flie discovery of a great back in the Laurel lineup, (Killer) •^orreiii, with any kind'of lUok this iflashy, hard'-hittlnfe bttckfieid man shoilld iglve the many 'fans 'plenty of thrills and dish out a lot of woe to opposing elevens.. Husar at cen-tet is also a great rfian for the snap per back position to the Laurel team, and other players as Pana-ronl, Dykun arid other are being recruited.

The Laurels defehslVe, with a little bit more of seasoning, will be able to take care of anything the

opposing teatns have to Offer. Thb line has provM tb be a stbne wall against lihe QUhils. The only weak­ness of the Green WaVe was the poor punting by the badkfield men and against forward passing and Coach Harrison has 'been driving the boys this week in aritl- craft defense and punting.

Tol, 027-2 Brunford, Conn.

•Wlliinm D. Hutchln'sbh, Age 22; height .'J-9; weight 175. On October 23, IS37, a rain-drciichcd croWd of some 40,000 was electrified by one Bill 'llu'tohinson iiiid his personal defeat of a strong Harvard team by thb'scorc'do'f 20-2.

Thb Sunday papers hurried to press with statement's 'describing Bombshell" Bill as the gVeatest

ball carrier since Red Grange, and for a fortnight Dartmouth's Hutch­inson was the football sensation of the nation.

iviter tile shouting had'dled'down and 'liVo Green ended ' tho season with still another fullback as the s'ta'ftlnB •regular, the fpotball puljlic had either forgotten Hutchinson or 'else ijoVe askliig the'question, was it merely a lucky day that ho had 'a'galn's't Hh'rva'r'd?

E.'o't's look Kit the record. Hutch­inson was first bf all a sophomore newcomer to the -Dartmouth squad 'ii'iid "e'ntitte'd to tli'o 'liilSt'iikes every boglnnci" must make. His first touch down for the Indians came in the Bates gafnb and he nlsb 'scored touchdown number two against the same opponent.

The'i'i Hutch failed to score again \iiitirtBe Bi'Own gtime viven he tal­lied two more touchdowns against th'e Boai-S: Attcr'his ttixrvaVd 'glories, he ended his season's performance Mit\ tot 'one 'ttOfe tally %ainst Princeton. Against both Harvard md Yale ho was nabbed behind his own goal line for safeties.

On tho basis of his Harvard per­formance Hutchinson Is a great ball carrier. On the basis of his other performances he was a green young 'Sfer. ;

Wliat should the football world expect of Hucht for this 1938—fame or a fadeout?

The fact of the matter is Hutchin­son is a standout ball carrier.

Against his own mates in scrim­mages ho repeatedly makes long romps once given his conveyance by tho line of scrimmage with good blocking. Tl e fact of the matter

Unless the present Mafia controlling boxing purges its own sta­bles the gentle art of fisticuffs is due for more "suicides" than the New York Police Department has had during the past year.

An 'eitample of the suspicion Milch surrouii'ds fights and.fighters these days is contained in LOu Jaffes Philadelphia Public Ledger coluinh, when Jaffe said:

"Word from Pittsburg is to the effect Chairman Dr. JioClelland be­lieves Tony (jalento's recent illness is 'phoney', having.prevlously stated he learned from an authoritative source the John Henry Lewis bout never would be staged in Philadel­phia." ,

Dr. HcClevelah'd's opinion, un­founded as It alppears to be in view of Galento's confinement to a hos­pital bed, was probably based upon recent efforts of certain-boxing ijro-moters to Induce John Henry Lewis or Galento to run out of the Phil­adelphia fight before it took place, so that 'Galento Avould be left free to fight Max Baer for the boxing Mafia and Lewis could defend his light-heavyweight ci'bwh against

closely into behind the scenes wire­pulling which is being done to fur­ther the Fox cause over that of the leading Negro challenger, Al Gainer of New Haven.

The public is becoming-apathetic to boxing matches.Rumors and scan dais are rapidly killing off the sport. Boxing naturals are 'dying'be-fore they are able to draw breath due to avaricious -practlees of pro­moters and managers.

The public is still trying to un­derstand the peculiar ending to the Max Sohmeling-Joe Ijouls fight, which terminated with the CJei'man hardly striking -a blow, 'and -was -fol­lowed by Sohmellng's smoke Screen confinement to a-hospital cot One member of the 20th Century'Sport­ing Club won a reported huge simi betting on Louis. Lucky wagers such as this cause the public to ponder.

Competition -in boxing -has been virtually eliminated 'through the Boxing Mafia's control of every-fis­tic title except the -middleweight and lightweight-heavyweight. 'The crew has tried to steal Lewis' title, and Is mbvirig everybody and evfery thing to 'force new Middleweight Champion Al Hostak to defend liis crown against favored son and tibh-trolled Fred Apostoli, who was bald­ly beaten on the Coast by YdUng Cbrbett.

Boxing as administered at pre'sfeht has arrived at the position whereby

Tiger Jack Fox, a second- rate col-[a fighter must either work for 'the ored battler over whom Lewis holds a knockoift victory.

fBecaiisfe Lewis refused'to-fight the second-rate Fox again the New York Athletic Commission has vaca­ted the sterling, clean-cut Lewis' title. "This iscertalnly strange treat­ment accorded to a man who has met al! comers, proved "himself -a wof thychamfilon of his dlvislon-and Is 'outstanding as a 'fighter without strings and fakes attached to his good name. Negro groups, interested in furthering the welfare of the colored -rooe, might look more

Maflaor 66 hungry. Unless the cbh-dltion is speedily remedied the 6h-comlng winter •will be a bleak 'and cheerless one for small and hdnest promoters -and -managers.

Only Mike Jacobs (who, when the need arises, handles the affairs bbit-Ing with a skilled and practised hand)-can pull the already burnlhg fistic chestnuts out of the fire coh-silmlng them.

But Mike will have to elimlha'te the sychbphaiits, connlvers, thteVes and chlselers wrecking a profl&tile enterprise.

Ripe Juicy Apples Right Into Delicious Apple Pies

There Is nothing quite so good these crisp, fall days as a sweet, juicy apple. Almost everyone enjoys an eating apple; and if you ask any man to name his favorite des­sert, nine times out of ten he'll lose no time In replying "apple pie". Connecticut can boast of an un­usually good crpop of apples this year, and the fruit may be obtained at very reasonable prices in the markets, at roadside stands, or di­rectly from the grower.

The Connecticut season usually begins In July, with the 'yellow Transparent which is so popular with many cooks for use in apple sauce and in desserts. Macintosh^ Jonathan, Grimes, Baldwin, Para­gon, Wlnesap and those that have already been mentioned mature in succession through the late summer and fall months. Many of them may be stored for use during the winter.

The housewife will learn to iden­tify a few of the best varieties grown here in the state, and will aslt for them when she goes marketing. ,

A good cooking apple should be Juicy, and at least mildly aoid or tar t Applos for baking must be of a texture which will not break down and become watery, or which will not remain hard and dry even af­ter long baking. For eating in the hand, the ftpple should be mildly «cid, Juicy and not coarse or dry and -meialy. The great variety of flavors In apple's permits a clioice of those most suitable for your needs. It Is a saving to purchase apples by the basket or in some lar­ger quantity when they can be pro-

.perly cftred tbr... They should be caretuljy sorte l and any bruised or injured fruit separated from the rest Rud used at onpe. The remaind­er should be in.a cold, dry place.

Ripe -apples right -from the trees make delicious apple pie—Here is a recipe -for

Dutch Ann'p Pie --'-l-oup pastry flour -. r - ;,

V4 -eup lard '/z teaspoon salt 3 tablespoons ice water 6 tart apples ?i cup sugar

2 tablespoon shutter \\ teaspoon cinnamon Vi teaspoon-salt Sift the flour and salt. Add the

lard and blend with two knives or a pastry blender. Add the ice wa­ter, a few drops at a time, pressing the dough together. Chill and roll out to fit a deep pie plate. Cut peel­ed apples in quarters or eights. Ar­range in unbaked pastry. Melt the butter, add the sugar, salt and cln-nornon and spread over the apples. Baice in a 420o P F. oven for 15 minutes, then in a 350o F. oven un­til apples are tender and crust is browned. Serve with squares of cheese or whipped cream.

Varied Butler Fillings There are ever so many salads

and meat dishes that are best serv­ed with thin bread and butter sand wiches. Now, even these simple little sandwiches can be varied in dozens of ways merely by adding or cream ing a little something with the plain butter. For Instance:

Honey Butler Cream '/< pound of butter and

blend into it, 2 tablespoons honey. More honey cap he used if desired.

Ham Butter Mix 1 tablespoon of creamed but­

ter with one small can of deviled ham.

Pimento Butler Place four pimentos In a liowi and

mash to a pulp. Press the pulp through a sieve and add '/s cup of creamed butter. Mix woll.

Keep Lard Well Covered Lard used In deep fat frying

should be strained tlirough cheese­cloth after use to remove the food Particles which accumulate in the kettle. Foods which have been dip-pedl n bread or cracker crumbs leave the most residue. To remove the finer pai^ticles which go through; the stariner or cheestolath, clorify the lard occasionally with raw po­tato-slices: Cut tlV^ potatoes direct ly into the cold fat and boat grad­ually until the slices are well browil ed, then remove by straining. Be­tween fryings keep the lai'd well covered and In a cool place.

Luncheon Or Supper Dish Of Stuffed Peppers Delicious

For Autumn Days

IHow To Have A Good Appetite

By Dr. James A.'Tobey The desire for food, or the ap­

petite, is an important factor in good nutrition. Some people seem to have little, if any, appetite for food, while others have too much. The ancient Greeks had a word for Insatiable appetite, calling it "Bui Imia."

A iproper appetite depends upon many conditions, mental as well as .physical. A person who enjoys good health will usually have a satipfaotory appetite, but it may be spoiled by Jatlguo, worry, or cook­ing land other preventable cond­itions.

Appetite is stimulated by all the senses. Thus, a .pleasing aroma of food, or the attractive appearance of food, er even the sound of food cooking, sizzling, or crackling in a dish will appeal to the appetite, which gets excellent inspiration from our senses of sight, smell, and hearing, as well as taste.

The flavor ot food is often im­portant as an appetite stlmulat-r, A dash of salt or sugar, a bit of spice or herb, an attractive sauce, all may add to the appeal of well-cooked food. One of the advantages of bread, rolls, and toast, and var­ious beverages with a meal is the pftlatability they add to the ordin­ary mixed diet The exception of a pleasing dessert also helps to sti­mulate appetite.

-When appetite Is lacking, an in­creased Intake of a certain vitamin,

. one of the vitamin B group, is us­ually helpful. The richest sources of this food factor are whole wheat breads and cereals, and yeast, but this vitamin Is likewise found in fruits, certified and pasteurized milk, eggs, and most vegetables. If liberal amounts of these protective and sustaining foo^s are included In yopr daily diet, and if about half Of the 'Ijreiid and cereals consumed are Of ithe whole wheat variety, there should be a favorable effect on -appetite, 'i'he other half of the

. bfead epten daily should be white bre^d, li) order to avoid too much roukhage.

Emotional upsets are bad'for the

appetite. Meals should always be pleasant occasions, and food should not be eaten at times of great men­tal stress, such as anger, sorrow, worry, or fear.

As Shakespeare so wisely said, "Let igood digestion wait on appe­tite, and health on both."

For Asparagus Pimiento Soup

"What kind of soup can I give the family to-night that is dif forent?" That is a question which which is being asked constantly by many -housewlfes these days. Well, here's a happy suggestion; why not try Asparagus Pimiento Soup. Here Is the recipe for it which was pre­pared recently in the Sealtest La­boratory Kitchen at Rockefeller Center.

The ingredients are: Two table­spoons of butter, five tablespoons of flour three cups of milk, one table spoon of salt, a few grains of pep per two tablespoons of finely chop­ped pimiento and three cups of cooked asparagus. Melt the butter in a double boiler, add the flour and mix well. Add the milk gradually and cook, stirring constantly untU thickened. Add salt, pepper, pim­iento, pureed asparagus and as­paragus liquid (about three-quar­ters of a cup) and reheat. It will serve six.

Homomakors, who like to,take ad-vontage of iast-of-the-season veg-otables, are making plans for using green poppers, in a variety of way during the next few weeks. Those Stuffed Peppers, a tasty and satis­fying dish, make good use of left­overs:

Slutfcd Peppers 0 green poppers 2 tablespoon's onion (chopped) 3 tablespoons butter l'/4 cups rice (cooked) I I'/z cups ham (chopped) 3-4 cup tomato soup 1/2 cup cheese (gratod) 14 cup crumbs (buttored) Remove stem onds, the white

membrane and the seeds from the peppers.

Parboil for 2 minutes in boiling salted water. Cook the onion in the butter for a few minutes, and com­bine with rice, ham, cheese and soup. Flu the peppers with this mix ture, top with grated cheese and buttered crumbs. Place in a greased baking dish and bake In a moder­ate oven (360o) for about 30 min­utes.

This Is an excellent dish to plan for busy days, when time for cook­ing is limited. The peppers may be prepared for baking several hours, oreven a day, in advance, and stored In amodorn air-condition refriger­ator until you are ready to complete your meal. Preparing tomorrow's meals today is practical, when you have one of the new refrigerators to solve your food protection prob­lems.

Lettuce Roll Salad Filled PotatoChips Fill Witli Cheese

One is apt over a period of much enlertaining to run short of salnfl. Ideas. The usual cole slaw or pota­to salad somehow loses Its appeal If served too often.

Here Is n good suggestion that "Will be as unusual to yotiK guest -fts tho potato chips which accompany this salad.

One of the most Importont things to keep In mind when you are plan­ning to build Is the .arrangement of closet space. Closets are indispens­able and should 'bo installed •whore-ever required as far as tlio cost of the house worrants. In inexpensive houses whore space 'is .noosssarily scarce, closets :arc used sparingly.

Also there should be a .eood-slzed closet comioctod -with Mie kltolien,| one with the laundry, BTid one for coats, etc., in connootion with the, Imli.

Fred Stone Scores American

Triumph Again Fred Stone, Incomparable stage

and screen actor, who has regaled audiences throughout tho country with his comlcalltlos tor a half century, has scored an "American triumph" In the role of Llghtnln' Bin Jones In John Goldon's revival of "Llghtnln"', currently on view at the Golden Theatre. So enthusias­tic was the response to Stone's bril llant acting before tho Now York critics the opening night that the veteran h a d to respond to fifteen curtain calls and then had to step forward to make a curtain speecU, a Hpeech tha t ho has had to repeat a t each performance over since.

"This Is tho happiest day of my lite,' Stoilo told his delighted audi­tors, and tho ilctor, tears in his sycs, meant every word of It. Con­tinuing, ho said: "I hopo to bo able to play Llghtnln' Bill until the end of my days in tho theatre."

And if capdclty audiences at the Golden Theatre is an indication of what tho future holds • in store for Fred Stone, "Llghtnln' " i s on the road to duplicating its record run with Frank Bacon twenty years ago at which time the comedy remain­ed Tor 1,201 performances on Broad­way alone.

Dramatically interesting Is the story behind the revival of "Llght­nln' ". John Golden, riding with Joseph P. Kennedy, Ambassador to England, through tho Long Island countryside,, got to talking about hits of tho past.

"Why don't you bring back 'Light nin' ", suggested the Ambassador.

"I dont think playgoers would go for It," oald Golden. Tha t night, however, tho producer picked up the manuscript, read it through and was delighted with tho play, Next morning he called Kennedy. "I'm going to produce it," ho said, "If I find an actor to play Llght­nln' Bill Jones."

Tho scene shifts to Hollywood California, wlipro Fred Stone was appearing In pictures. He, too, by a coincidence, had read "Llghtnln' began studying the par t and came East to see John Golden. Tho actor had hardly walked into tho door when the producer said; "I've got a Job for you."

"There's only one Job I'm Inter ested In," said Stone, "and tha t ' s playing Llghtnln, " whereupon Stone recited the role. Tho two shook hands and tho revival was on tho way.

"Of course," confess Golden, "I expected some success for 'Llght­nln' or I wouldn't have produced It, but never did I think It would be­come a sellout overnight. I t proves one thing—the play Is one of the American classics of our present day theatre and will live as long as Americans recognize it as a comedy that comes out of the hearts of the people—which It does."
