that tho recall will be embodied in the

ing in the STAR headpin tournament

is treasurer of Court Newark No. 1892,
is taking much interest in the arrange
ments, and he says that there will be
at least fifteen teams on the job. This,
of course, makes it sure that Forest
ers' Night will be one of the big fea-
lures of the tournament.
Joe Dunn, as usual, is working like a
beaver to make Branch Brook Night"
a big success. He is not yet ready to
announce details. but 1t is sure that
there will be a big turnout.
Some Of the teams which have re-
Gently entered the STAR headpin tour
nament are the Aretas, three teams
from the Devine Bowling Club, Of
Elizabeth; the Welland Five, of Irving
ton; the Oaklands and three teams
from the Headley & Farmer Company.

legs. A schedule for October has been
prepared. The dates follow:
