PRICE THREE CENTS The RAMBLING REPORTER •Savsz DO YOU KNOW THAT —More workers were in- volved in WPA and relief strikes during 1937 than were involved in strikes in either the chemical, pa- per and printing, tobacco, leather, stone, clay and glass or non-rerous metal industries . . . The use of cigarettes has cut cigar production from seven bil- lion in 1919 to only 3,685,- 000,000 in 1935 . . . There are approximately 43 rail- road freight cars in ser- vice for each passenger car in service . . . X X X X ODD BUSINESS—Horse racing has given an un- usual business to a com- pany in Baltimore. The company makes more than 50,000 aluminum horse- shoes a year. Because of their light weight—about half that of iron shoes aluminum horseshoes take a real load from a horse's feet. Napoleon III, it is said, was the first to tin- ker with aluminum shoes, but was unable to acquire enough metal to equip his cavalry in 1852 when the price was $545 a pound. With the price today down to aroundd 20 cents a pound, however, almost every horse on the big time tracks now is shod with aluminnum shoes. X X t X WELL OFF — Despite the hard times experienc- ed by many persons so far this decade, America, as a nation, is still better off economically than the rest of the world. A recent study shows that the U.S. 'Contains only six per cent ofthe world's area and seven per cent of world's population. Yet America consumes 48 per cent of the world's coffee, 53 per cent of its tin, 56 per cent of its rubber, 21 per cent of its sugar and 72 per of its silk. Sixty per cent of the world's telephones are operated in the U.S., and 80 per cent of the world's motor cars are owned here. America pro- duces 70 per cent of the world's oil, 60 per cent of its wheat, and cotton. With more than 11 billion dol- lars in gold, this country possesses nearly half of the world's monetary me- tal. The purchasing pow- er of the American people is greater than that of 500,000,000 Europeans and many times larger than that of more than a billion Asiatics.

Surviving are seven sons, Paul, WOODBRIDGE.—An ordinance, reducing Township Plenary Retail Consumption Licenses from seventy to lifts' and the Plenary Retail Distribution Licenses from five to three, will in all likelihood be introduced for first reading at a meeting of the Township Committee Monday night. The ordinance, which has the sanction of D. Frederick Burnett, Alcoholic Beverage Commissioner, is being introduced to protect the liquor dealers, according to Town- ship Attorney Leon E. McElroy. "There are too many taverns now," said McElroy, "and none ot them are making a real living." All the present dealers will be given licenses if they so desire. If present dealers wish to transfer their licenses they must do so 'be- fore July 15 or they will lose their right to transfer through failure to apply for the transfer within the alloted time. Burnett has informed McElroy that all applicataions for renewals must be filed with the- clerk not later than July 15th of the license year for which the renewal is sought and that all applications filed after that date "shall be deemed to be applications for new licenses." As liquor dealers drop their li- censes no new licenses will be is- sued until the number decreases to the fifty as required by the new ordinance. "Need Fewer Licenses" Writing to McElroy, who sent the Alcoholic Beverage commissioner a copy of the new ordinance, Bur- nett said: "My records indicate that there are presently outstanding in- the Township seventy plenary retail consumption and five plenary re- tail distribution licenses. The or- dinance seeks to reduce the quo- tas to fifty and three, respectively. That is surely enough for a mu- nicipality of 25,000 inhabitants. What we need is fewer licenses, not more. "If licenses are to be cut down, the way to begin is to begin. A journey of a thousand miles be- gins with one step. In the light oi 1 the purpose of the ordinance and the desirability of reducing the number, I believe the regulation to be sound. It is herefore tenta- j lively approved, subject to the usual right of appeal." NEXT TOWNSHIP CCC ALLOTMENT READYJOR JULY OMENHISER URGES ELIG- IBLE YOUTHS TO FILE APPLICATIONS WOODBRIDGE.- J o h n Oraan- hiser, municipal director of relief, announced today that the next CCC allotment for Woodbridgo will officially be released some- time in July.

Aft er the list expires, any boy from families whose incomes are in- sufficient will be considered. ANNUAL SCHOOL EXHIBIT TONIGHT COLORED MANMINUS TROUSERS FOUND ON NEW BRUNSWICK AVE. WOODBRIDGE.

After receiving a daughters, Mrs. Arthur Hansen of suspended sentence, the relief of- fice was called upon to supply Honest Racing Planned If the voters approve the constitutional amendment permitting pari-mutuel betting at horse race tracks, New Jersey will have real horse racing again after a lapse of more than forty years. But horse racing, this time, if it comes, will be con- ducted far differently that it was in the old days. When horse racing flourished at the old Guttenberg course, in Gloucester, Monmouth Park and Clifton, it was in the hands of professional gamblers who, through their avarice and greed, brought about the elimination of racing in this state. In the ol-d days many a race was fixed in the inter- est of the bookmakers who controlled the tracks. Too much, money wagered on any one horse at the old Guttenberg track, caused the "bookies" to do one of two things. They either had the horse "pulled up" behind the big rock at the northern turn of the track near Nungesser's, or one of the other horses, which had been weighted down with lead sinkers under its saddle, was relieved of its excess weight by its jock- ey, who threw away the weights and, with less pound- age to cany, easily beat out the heavily backed horse. But it was altogether the crooked racing which, brought about the downfall of the tracks as much as it was the greed of the racing combine for more easy money. They had racing in winter and also wanted night racing with the evils attending such races. Denis McLoughlin, Democratic boss of Hudson, and L his three partners, Johnny Carr, Fred Walenbaum and Nick Crusius, who owned the Guttenberg track, were warned by Billy Thompson, big shot at the Glo- cester track, opposite Philadelphia. They were told they were going too far but they would not heed "Plank Shad" Billy Thompson, and being in control of the legislature had bills passed giving them previl- eges to do as they pleased. This brought on a revulsion of s&ntiment and a Re- publican legislature the following year knocked out the night racing and other obnoxious gambling laws and paved the way in 1897 for the constitutional amendment which wiped out racing altogether in New Jersey. But racing, if it comes back, will be conducted on a higher plane and under a better system this time, with the crooked race track operators and bookmakers on the outside looking in, for under the pari-mutuel bet- ting system the "Sport of Kings" will not be controll- ed by a "Gang of Knaves," as in the old days. There has always been gambling and always will be despite all the laws ever enacted against it, with the profits all going into the pockets of the profes- sional gamblers and the taxpayers deriving no benefit from it at all. Under the proposed pari-mutuel system of betting the state will receive a benefit of more than a mil- lion dollars annually. A tidy sum to help. In addi- tion to this revenue, hundreds of men could be putto work.

WOODBRIDGE.—An ordinance, reducing TownshipPlenary Retail Consumption Licenses from seventy to lifts'and the Plenary Retail Distribution Licenses from five tothree, will in all likelihood be introduced for first readingat a meeting of the Township Committee Monday night.

The ordinance, which has thesanction of D. Frederick Burnett,Alcoholic Beverage Commissioner,is being introduced to protect theliquor dealers, according to Town-ship Attorney Leon E. McElroy.

"There are too many tavernsnow," said McElroy, "and none otthem are making a real living."

All the present dealers will begiven licenses if they so desire. Ifpresent dealers wish to transfertheir licenses they must do so 'be-fore July 15 or they will lose theirright to transfer through failure toapply for the transfer withinthe alloted time.

Burnett has informed McElroythat all applicataions for renewalsmust be filed with the- clerk notlater than July 15th of the licenseyear for which the renewal issought and that all applicationsfiled after that date "shall bedeemed to be applications for newlicenses."

As liquor dealers drop their li-censes no new licenses will be is-sued until the number decreases tothe fifty as required by the newordinance.

"Need Fewer Licenses"Writing to McElroy, who sent the

Alcoholic Beverage commissionera copy of the new ordinance, Bur-nett said:

"My records indicate that thereare presently outstanding in- theTownship seventy plenary retailconsumption and five plenary re-tail distribution licenses. The or-dinance seeks to reduce the quo-tas to fifty and three, respectively.That is surely enough for a mu-nicipality of 25,000 inhabitants.What we need is fewer licenses,not more.

"If licenses are to be cut down,the way to begin is to begin. Ajourney of a thousand miles be-gins with one step. In the light oi1the purpose of the ordinance andthe desirability of reducing thenumber, I believe the regulationto be sound. It is herefore tenta- jlively approved, subject to theusual right of appeal."

Honest Racing PlannedIf the voters approve the constitutional amendment

permitting pari-mutuel betting at horse race tracks,New Jersey will have real horse racing again after alapse of more than forty years.

But horse racing, this time, if it comes, will be con-ducted far differently that it was in the old days.When horse racing flourished at the old Guttenbergcourse, in Gloucester, Monmouth Park and Clifton, itwas in the hands of professional gamblers who,through their avarice and greed, brought about theelimination of racing in this state.

In the ol-d days many a race was fixed in the inter-est of the bookmakers who controlled the tracks.

Too much, money wagered on any one horse at theold Guttenberg track, caused the "bookies" to do oneof two things. They either had the horse "pulled up"behind the big rock at the northern turn of the tracknear Nungesser's, or one of the other horses, whichhad been weighted down with lead sinkers under itssaddle, was relieved of its excess weight by its jock-ey, who threw away the weights and, with less pound-age to cany, easily beat out the heavily backedhorse.

But it was altogether the crooked racing which,brought about the downfall of the tracks as much asit was the greed of the racing combine for more easymoney. They had racing in winter and also wantednight racing with the evils attending such races.

Denis McLoughlin, Democratic boss of Hudson, and

L

his three partners, Johnny Carr, Fred Walenbaumand Nick Crusius, who owned the Guttenberg track,were warned by Billy Thompson, big shot at the Glo-cester track, opposite Philadelphia. They were toldthey were going too far but they would not heed"Plank Shad" Billy Thompson, and being in controlof the legislature had bills passed giving them previl-eges to do as they pleased.

This brought on a revulsion of s&ntiment and a Re-publican legislature the following year knocked outthe night racing and other obnoxious gambling lawsand paved the way in 1897 for the constitutionalamendment which wiped out racing altogether inNew Jersey.

But racing, if it comes back, will be conducted on ahigher plane and under a better system this time, withthe crooked race track operators and bookmakers onthe outside looking in, for under the pari-mutuel bet-ting system the "Sport of Kings" will not be controll-ed by a "Gang of Knaves," as in the old days.

There has always been gambling and always willbe despite all the laws ever enacted against it, withthe profits all going into the pockets of the profes-sional gamblers and the taxpayers deriving no benefitfrom it at all.

Under the proposed pari-mutuel system of bettingthe state will receive a benefit of more than a mil-lion dollars annually. A tidy sum to help. In addi-tion to this revenue, hundreds of men could be put towork.

Funeral services will be heldthis morning at 9 o'clock from thehome and 9:30 at St. Michael'sGreek Catholic church in Fords.Interment will follow in the Al-pine cemetery, Perth Amboy.

T OO many persona cling to thefalse notion that certain foods are

automatically fattening. FrequentlyI am asked by presumably intel-

ligent personsif it isn't truethat milk con-tains somethingthat makes youfat, that breadcauses over-weight, that po-tatoes and otherstarchy vege-tables will sure-ty cause obesity

The answer,based on solidscientific facts,

Dr. J. A. Tobey i s t n a t n 0 o n e

food is actually fattening It Is thetotal day's diet that may or maynot be responsible for overweight,but only when the total of all thefoods consumed regularly exceedsthe usual energy needs of the body.Similarly, no one food is non-fatten-ing, or reducing, but a dally dietmay be.

The body's energy needs aremeasured by a unit of heat produc-tion known as the calorie. Everyfood produces a certain number ofcalories, since its fat, carbohydrate,and protein are burned for energy,the most immediate requirement of

The average person needs from2500 to 3000 calories a day, althoughan individual doing hard physicallabor will need more. These calo-ries come from a wide variety offoods in a mixed diet.

To get 3000 calories from onefood, you would have to drink morethan four quarts of whole milk, oreat 40 slices of bread, or 30 mediumpotatoes, or nearly three pounds ofsteak, or about 1000 leaves of let-tuce.

You do not eat these quantitiesdaily. Instead, you may consume apint of milk (340 calories), six slicesof bread (3S0 calories) and butter(180 to 250 calories), two potatoes(180 calories), a small steak (200calories), and various other foodsthat make up tbe remaining 1500 orso needed calories.

When you want to reduce, de-crease the calories by S00, andwhen you want to put on weight,increase them by 500; in each case,however, using the right foods. Soyon see, it is not any one food, butthe entire day's diet that may J».fattening, reducing, or normal.

Reunion At GettysburgPresident Roosevelt has signed the bill making pos-

sible a reunion of the veterans of the North and the Southtit Gettysburg from June 29 to July 4. Among the old menwho will gather on the tield of -battle, just seventy-fiveyears after the struggle of their youthful days, will besome who participated in fighting for Little Round Top.Politically the entire nation feels the effects of the divi-sion that existed between the states. Truth then compelsthe statement, that, while most of the people of the na-tion have little, if any feeling in certain sections of thecountry, some remnants of the emotions that stirred thepeople of the country years ago.

Continuing to look the facts in the face, forces one toadmit that the race question in this country has not yet!bee.n completely settled. It would have existed to some ex-tent if there had never been a war between the Union andConfederate forces. The compulsory freeing of the slaves.The horrors of Reconstruction, the war amendments to theConatiutian and the recent mass migration of Negroes combine to create problems that must be solved in the future.

There is, however, no reason for pessimism in regardto this country. As the old veterans gather on the field ofGettysburg, the people of the nation should assemble inspirit and pledge anew their faith in the nation, its peopleand its future.

World Trade ProspectsWorld trade, at the end of 1937, according to monthly

fatistics published by the League of Nations, haad climb-back to the level it had reached in volume in 1929. Im-

lediately afterwards, in three months, it dropped twelvelircent.

Somewhat along this iinefi Harold B. Butler, directorrof the International Labor Office at Geneva, Switzerland,

that war is biock'ng world social progress and[threatens to precipitate a "total collapse."

While reporting that basic economic conditions in the|world are favorable, he declared thaat "war is already

Mr, Butler, a British citizen, is chief of the Labor Bu-reau, a League of Nations Organization. After recounting-

(the gains made between 1929 to 1933 to 1937, he says that.in the latter half of 1937, the economic tide turned with'stock market declines a.nd breaks in raw material prices.The major disturbance centered in the United States andMr. Butler attributes the American recession to thre fact-ors; a reduction in Government borrowing-; a decline inne\v orders by overstocked business houses and a stockmarket collapse.

"Truckload of Silver"By FLOYD GIBBONS

Famous Headline Hunter

H ELLO EVERYBODY:Collecting money from people who owe it to you—

well—it's always had the reputation of being a tough job,and now I'm beginning to learn it can even be so tough asto be classed as an adventure. Herbert J. Devine of NewYork city did just such a job of collecting once—and boy,did he have a ticklish time doing it!

Tt happened in China where collecting dough is a lot harder than it lshere. A Chinese merchant way back in the interior, owed five thousandbucks to the company for which Herb worked, and Herb couldn't get anickel of it. It wasn't that the merchant wasn't honest. He had themoney, in silver, and would have been only too glad to pay off his debts.But, as he pointed out to Herb's firm in a letter, he was more than threehundred li (Chinese miles) from a railroad, and the country in betweenfairly swarmed with bandits. If he tried to transport it, he'd loseit. And that wouldn't help anybody but the bandits.

Well, that dough had to be brought in somehow, so Herb setout to get it. He hired three Peking carts, a few coolies, and aninterpreter named Djoa, strapped a Colt revolver around his waistand started on the long trek inland to the city of Ho-Kien-Fu inHopei province, where the merchant conducted his business-

Bandits Stopped Joe's Caravan.The first day out was uneventful. The little caravan stopped at a

Chinese inn for the night, and the next morning, they started out again.Afternoon found Herb cramped and stiff from riding in one ol thosejolting, springiess carts, so he got out to walk. He had hardly gone threesteps when he saw a dust cloud kicking up on the horizon.

Sand storm.' That was Herb's first thought. He walked back to thecarts and told the coolies to draw the canvases tight over the supplies.But as he talked to them, Djoa, his interpreter, came running over.

"Master," he cried. "Not sand storm. Men riding this way.Very fast. Either soldiers or bandits."Herb had been in China long enough to know that if those riders were

bandits, it was mighty serious business. Life ls cheap In China. They'llkill you for your shoes—or just for no reason at all. Herb drew his

"Hide the Gun, Master," Said the Interpreter.automatic, placed himself behind one of the carts, and watched. As theriders came nearer he could see the ragged clothes they wore. Theyweren't soldiers. They WERE BANDITS.

Djoa's Plan Better Than Shooting."My mind was made up," says Herb, "not to be captured alive. I

had seen too many gruesome butcheries out there for that. I was con-vinced that this was,4he end, and the cold perspiration began to standout on my forehead.' But at the same time I was determined to take afew of the scum along with me before I used that last bullet I was savingfor myself. The band pulled up their horses a feiy hundred feet awayand some twenty of them, headed by their leaders. ' ,\rhe toward us, riflesleveled. Fixing my eye on one of them, I lifted r ,un and took carefulaim."

But that's where Djoa, the interpreter, came into the picture.He put a hand on Herb's shoulder and said, "No, master. Hidegun. They will kill you for your gun quicker than for anythingelse. Lei :ne go first and talk to them."It sounded all right to Herb, and Djoa went trotting uff toward the

bandits. For a full 15 minutes he parleyed with the chief, and that was amighty long 15 minutes for Herb Devine. What was Djoa talking aboutover there? What vr.r ,,'Tking him so lung? Was he having a hardtime with the bandits'- '• 1 was he making some sort of treacherous deal—planning to deliver Herb into iheir hands in order to save his ownskin?

And Djoa had told the absolutetruth. "Nothing but silly foreign food in cans which you wouldn't eat,"he said. "But if you will let me join your band later, I will tell yousomething."

The bandits agreed, and Djoa told them. "The white mangoes to collect much silver," he said. "Wait until we come back,and then we will capture him and divide (he money,"And though Herb collected thai silver, the bandits waited a long time

for him to return. He and Djoa came back by another route.

It seems to us that the idea has possibilities in theschools of this county. The time has passed when schoolofficials and teachers can be satisfied with pumping intel-ligence into the skulls of children. Education is, after all,primarily intended to equip boys and girls for living. Veryoften, the student could afford to know less about mathe-matics, language or history and more about the ait of get-ting along socially with other human beings.

ABRAM CHASINS, A.S,C.A.P.

J

By Daniel I. McNamara

ABRAM CHASINS, brilliant youngAmerican musician . , . com-

poser, pianist, musicologist , . . ia anotable exponent of industry in art.He adheres strictly to longschedules in hi. busy New Yorkstudio overlooking Central Park.Luncheons are brief; often heworks far into the night. Still inhis early thirties, he enjoys world-wide prestige.

Chaslns was born of Russianparents in New York City, August17. 1903. Discovered as a childprodigy by the late Mrs. ThomasTapper, musician-friend of juvenilegenius, he began studying- composi-tion with Rubin Goldmark at twelve.Later teachers were Richard Ep-stein and Ernest Hutcheson. Hestudied at Curtis Institute in Phila-delphia, remained as piano teacheruntil 1$34. During 3931 and 1932 hemade two successful concert toursof Europe.

Chasins' flrat compositional effortgwere In hlg student days in Curtis.His "Three Chinese Pieces" foundtheir way into the concert programsof many leading artists.

He made his own planlstic debut•with Gabrflowftsch. and the Phila-delphia orchestra in 1929, piaylngbis own^irst Piano Concerto. Tos-canlnl honored him in the 1931season ol the Philharmonic by per-forming Chasins' "Parade" and"Flirtation in a Chinese Garden."Thrice In a single week in 1938 heappeared ,in Barbirolli's Philhar-monic Symphony series, playing hisown Second Piano Concerto.

His regularly scheduled lecture-recital raOio broadcasts initiated In

193i attained great popularity.These revealed facility of oral ex-pression to complement his thor-ough musicianship.

Chasins is a staunch ally of fellowcomposers, a defender of the rightsin Intellectual property created bythem. He is a leading spirit oC the-American Composers' Alliance, andan active member of the AmericanSociety of Composers, Authors an5Publishers. His favorite composersare Bach, Chopin, Brahms and Wag-ner. Rachmaninoff and Strauss arehis most admired contemporaries.

Chasins finds time for recreation,in the midst of constantly increas*ing activities in composition, con-certs and radio broadcasting. IIQplays chess and brldge^njoys out-door sports. HI3 favorite reading Isbiography and philosophy, occasion-ally a detective story. He conversesfluently in three languages.

Singularly devoid of the tempera-mental instability traditionally at-tributed to composers, he insiststhat hard work is his best inspira-tion. He loves his work, Dears htehonors modestly. Success In youUjhas not spoiled him.

"...every man a successful man"—Phelps

'"pHERE are two fundamental rules for a happy and successful life,•*• according to William Lyon Phelps, America's best knowo and

besi fovedv college professor. They are, according to Dr. Phelps, tomarry young and to develop character through religion in the home.

"The highest happiness known on earth is in marriage" saysDr. Phelps in an article in the June issue of Good Housekeepingmagazine, "Every man who ls<Smanbappfly married is a successfulman even If he >ias failed in every-tblng else. And every man whosemarriage Is a failure is not a suc-cessful man even if he bas suc-ceeded In everything else, '

But successful marriages, ac-cording lo Dr. Pbelps, are madeand not boro. "Fror. childboodboys and girls find out bow chil-dren come, but the secret of agood character, temperament, anddisposition Is not so readily found.

"The reason vby character ist te most Important requisite forsuccess in marriage is not merelythat It happens lo be the chiefcause ot happiness, but that thosewho have character can turn anunsuccessful marriage into a suc-cessful one, instead of taking theeasy way out. and acknowledgingfailure. No man or DO woman lato blame1* for malting a foolishmarriage; It might happen to any-one. The test of character Is notwhether one bas or las not madea foolish marriage; the test comesafter the foolish marriage has beenmade. What a iriumph then toturn thai failure into a success,as ine statesman turns a minorityinto a majority!"

"I am In favor of early mar-riages" says the Professor. "[ amdelighted wnen either ihe boy'sparents or tnose of the girl navemoney enough so thai ibe youngpair can be married at twenty-two,before they begin professionalstudy or work. And when there Islittle money but either or botbhave a job, then by all means theysbould be married. When youngpeople marry, they take difficultiesof housekeeping and privations asa lark, even as young people do

the University of Chicago wagmarried at nineteen. He told mothat during the first five or sixyears there were tinjes whenneither he nor his wife could malla letter, because they did not haveenough casb to buy one postagestamp. He laughed aloud as horecounted this, and added, 'Therewaa never one moment when eitherof us regretted our marriage.'

"Marriage can be wonderfulfrom every point of view" saysDr. Hhelps, "when it is a com-bination of the highest physicaldelight with the highest spiritualdevelopment."

Dr. Phelps gives several ruleslor keeping marriages happy. Thefirst is this: After you are marriednever leave tbe house, even \t onlyto post a letter at the corner, with-out kissing you.1 wife. Second,during the first twenty years ofmarriage, occupy the same bed-room and never go lo sleep withresentment In your hearts Tbethird, since Ihe greatest ot all thearts is the . rt of living together,and since the highest and mostpermanent happiness depends ooit. and since Hie way to practicetnis art successfully lies throughcharacter, tbe all-important ques-tion Is how to obtain character,and the surest .vay is through re-ligion—religion in the home.

RAHWAY THEATRE, Rahway.The urge to make big pictures,

pictures honestly deserving thosemuch abused adjectives "tre-mendous," "spectacular" and even"colossal" seems to come in cy-cles. And these cycles reach theircrest roughly, very roughly, atten-year intervaals. Of course,people haven't been making mov-ies long enough yet to enable thestatistician to determine so longrange a matter as the periodicityof appearance of big pictures de-finitely, but so far, ten years seemsto be the interval between onecluster of big pictures and thenext, but the clusters themselvesare spread over a period of threeof four years.

We seem to he right at the highpoint of such a cycle now, with alot of big pictures showing, and"In Old Chicago' with its enorm-ous budget scheduled for an open-ing at the Rahway Theatre Sun-day. The chances seem to be( ifthe cycle is correct, that the nextfew years will see a slump in spectacle pictures, no more than onebeing produced a year, if that.

The fire itseU, the mere matterof reproducing convincingly a firethat burned four square miles ofbuildings, destroyed $200,000,000worth of property, killed 300 peo-ple (that was the number of deadwho were found after the confla-gration) all in a holocaust thatlasted unabated for two days, wasdifficult enough. A sixty-acre cityhad to be destroyed by real flamescarefully controlled, while cameramen, Tyrone Power, Alice Faye,Don Ameche, Alice Brady and

hordes of extras and cattle all per-formed their duties in the midst ofthe flames.

LIBERTY THEATRE, Elizabeth,| Although Beverly Roberts, love-ly screen actress who plays oppo-site Richard Arlen in Republic's"Call of the Yukon," which is op-

' ening at the Liberty Theatre, ad-mits that her surpressed desire isto be a slinking, smouldering andglamorous siren, there is littlechance that that desire will everbe attained. Miss Roberts is essen-tially an outdoor girl.

In "Call of the Yukon," MissRoberts once again plays a roleof an outdoor girl. As Jean Wil-liams, a writer, she journeys toAlaska to gather material for astory but misfortune overtakesher and she becomes stranded andkst in Artie wastes. She is res-cued by a half-civilized trapperand a northern woods trader. Fur-ther complications arise as a re-sult of the fact that both men fallin love with her. How this groupsettles matters amicably, with thehelp of a beautiful dog, SwiftLightning, makes excellent screenfare.

In addition to Miss Roberts andArlen, such screen favorites asLyle Talbot, Mala, Al St. John,Emory Parnell and AnthonyHughes are included in the sup-porting cast,

KITZ THEATRE, Elizabeth.Sometimes amusing, sometimes

tragic and always exciting "CrimeSchool," the Warner Bros, picturaopening at the Strand Thetre, to-day, contains a powerful indict-ment of unthinking, brutal, out-modern methods of dealing withjuvenile crime.

Effectively utilizing the talentsof the six New York boys who became famous in both stage andscreen versions of "Dead End" aswell as such adult players as Humphrey Bogart and Gale Page, thelatter a beautiful newcomer to thescreen from radio, the new Warner picture makes a strong case forits basic theme—that the old typeof boys' reformatory is in fact a"Crime School."

The newer methods of dealingwith juvenile offenders—designed to prevent their developing into adult criminals—are effectivelycontrasted with the old by basingthe story on the determined fightmade by an idealistic young offi-cial to introduce his ideas into areformatory of the old type.

AT THE RITZ THEATRE

A scene from "In Old Chicago" to be featured at Rah-way Theatre, commencing Sunday.

And if this promise isfilled, we can thank

The victory for the Legion plac-ed them in a triple tie for secondplace with the Art Color and HolyTrinity nines. At the present timethe Clover-Brooks and the NorthAmboy Sporting Club are tied forfirst place with two victories andone loss apiece.

"Legs" Kocsi was on the moundfor the Soldiers and the fireball expert allowed the Art Color teambut six hits while he fanned sixmore. "Legs" didn't allow his op-

a run until the sixth in-jning. Meanwhile his mates wereslugging the gracious offerings ofBeirn. Slicta and Newman all ov-

Ihope they succeed, becausethrough this movement theycan continue their own ath-letic program. The associa-tion will also help to keephigh school athletics at apeak.

frame the Legion was leading 14-1.

Kocsi weakened in the eighthand the home club scored fourruns, but the Legion had scoredfive runs in the preceding inningand Kocsi was never in any dang-er of having his lead choppeddown.

In all, the Legion collected 23hits with "Swack" Dunham grab-bing the spotlight by collectingthree nits in four trips to the plate,

j Dunham also hit the only homerof the day. "Jake" Kinney, theFlemington commuter, banged outfour hits in six attempts.

The Clover Broks walloped theHoly Trinity nine 10-4 while theNorth Amboy Sporting Club had arousing time in banging out a 31-9 victory over the Sacred Hearts.

Art Color (5)

Galetta proved once and for allthat he is the best hurler and aserious threat for all-state honors.He limited the Barrons to fourhits while he fanned ten' batsmen.Chaplar, Woodbridge's hurling ace,was nicked for seven hits.

Perth Amboy was the first toscore. In the sixth inning Chap-lar walked Nick Ruffo. Jugan sac-rificed Ruffo and Galetta smasheda single over second base to scorethe runner.

Woodbridge tied the count inthe seventh when Gyenes singledand Chaplar reached first whenGaletta fumbled a bunt. MickeyKarnas then hoisted a high fly toright field, but Kolcsak droppedthe pill to allow Gyenes to score.

The deciding tally was scoredby the Panthers in the ninth whenDeRasmi singled to center aftertwo men were out. Reick slappeda single into left field, but the ballrolled through "Yoke" Gyenes'legs and. DeRasmi scored the win-ning run. Galetta retired the Bar-rons in order in the last of theninth to end the game.

On Saturday, after two post-ponements by rain, the Barrons defeated St. Mary's, 8-5 at Wonder-land Park. The battle was nip andtuck for eight innings. Petro start-ed for the Barrons, but Ellis wascalled, in the fifth with the Saintsleading four to two. Ellis wasyanked in favor of Chaplar in theseventh with the score 5-4 in fav-or of the Saints.

Woodbridge tied the count inthe eighth when Korzowski chasedin Chaplar with a single. Al Leff-ler pulled the game out of the firein the ninth by smashing the ballover the fence with two mates onthe sacks. Karnas was the battingstar of the game with four hits infive trips to the plate.

Our American Legion baseball club's opening at thenew stadium last Sundaywas postponed because rainon Friday and Saturdayhalted the last minute prep-arations. As a result, theyhad to play their first homegame at the Dunellen ArtColor field. Rain also post-poned the St. Mary's Wood-bridge game.

WOODBRIDGE. — The holidayweekend and the rainy spell earli-er in the week slowed down theproceedings in the Woodbridgetownship senior leagues. Onlythree games were played, but nochanges were recorded in thestandings.

Sewaren took a 17-2 win overthe Woodbridge Comets in a free-for-all hitting contest. Neitherteam collected as many hits a^

iruns, but that can be contributedto a pile of errors on both sides.Sewaren took a 6-1 lead in thesecond frame and from then onthey ruled the roost.

Batting honors went to JohnnySefchik wno collected a single,double and triple in four trips tothe plate. Bedi's home run wasbest for the losers.

A grudge game in the Port Read-ingg senior loop found the Anchor

PISCATAWAYTOWN. — AD inspiring Memorial Dayprogram was presented by the students of school No. 3here at a general assembly held Friday afternoon. It wasthe first program of its kind ever held in the school. Planshave already been advanced to make it an annual event.

The confer-ence committee will befree to incorporate in afinal bill the geographicwage differentials con-tained in the Senate billpassed several months ago.The House bill providesfor a nation-wide 25-centminimum hourly wage,and a maximum workweek of 44 hours. This, itis said, would cause unduehardship in the south,which is struggling tochange over from an agri-cultural 4,0 an industrialtype of economy.

dication that Congress isbecoming aroused by themenace of Japanese com-petition with Americanmanufactured products isseen in a speech deliveredin the House by EdithNourse Rogers, congress-woman from Massachu-setts. U.

Girls alwaysdo this before

they meettheir "date"

Nine times out of ten, you will find thatthe girl who is popular, who has lots oifriends, and all sorts of social engage-ments, is one who is careful about herbreath. It's the same with men, too.

Nothing offends others so much aseven a mild case of halitosis (unpleas-ant breath). Anybody may be a victimof this condition because most cases,says one authority, are caused by thefermentation of very tiny bits of foodthat even careful tooth brushing hasfailed to remove.

Smart men and women don't takethis chance of offending. Every dayand especially before business or socialengagements, they rinse the mouthwith Listerine. This safe antiseptic andquick deodorant works wonders.

It halts fermentation, then over-comes the odors it causes. The breath,the entire mouth itself, becomessweeter and more wholesome.
