NEED TWO MORE STRIPS
FOR PLAYGROUNDPURPOSES

The purchase Of a strip Of land 10
straighten out the eastern line of the
Durand tract, which has been ae-
quired for playground purposes. and
the purchase of the Belcher estate,
were discussed last night by the
Irvington Fairgrounds Commission.
The cost of the Beleher estate is s12,-
500. and the parcels of land in the
rear of the Smith street property
required for Strengthening the Durand
grounds will cost s2.100.
Gustave Kruttsehnitt, the president
Of the commission, said Il was not
the intention Of the commissioners
to make any elaborate equipment of
the Belcher ground. He believed that
If an appropriation of $500 for a
wading pool was made the grounds
would increase greatly in value with
in five years. and would then become
an excellent site for a public school.
Resolutions favoring these appropria-
tions will be submitted to the Town
Council Monday night.

SEEK ADMISSION |
TO SEWER PACT
BIoomfieId's Plea Referred by
Commission to Other Towns
in Agreement.

Bloomfield has at last fallen in line
with the fifteen other municipalities
that have contracted with the Pas
sale Valley Sewerage Commission TO
build the great trunk sewer which
is to end the pollution OF the Passaic
river. Councilman C. J. Murray and
Town Counsel Frank Kocher ap-
peared before the commissioners yes
terday and were closeted with the
latter for more than a hour
The representatives were informed
that the commission had no power TO
act In their behalf. but that the
Bloomfield Town Council would have
to place it's requests before the other
municipalities and obtain their
unanimous consent.
Mr.. Kocher admitted that the rea-
son for Bloomfeid's desire to join IN
the trunk sewer project was the fact
that Orange, together with Mont
clair and East Orange. planned a dis
posal plant of its own.
This proposed plant would be To-
Gated partly on Bloomfield territory,
and Mr.. Kocher said the latter nuni-
cipality Is opposed to the scheme. On
the other hand there is no other out
let to the trunk sewer from Bioorn-
field except a branch of its own. This,
Mr.. Koeher declared, might be done.
1t was pointed out that il might
be a difficult matter TO obtain the
consent of the other municipalities
to let Bloomfield in on the project as
the plans were already under way.
Mr.. Kocher averred, however. that he
did not think it weuld be a difficnIt
matter as the town af Bloomfield WAS
willing to bear its fun share Of the
expense.

Davis Tolls of Athletics Plav,

Harry Davis asserted that there was
no truth in the rumor that the success
of the Athletics was due to their abil-
ity to steal signals. Davis said that
the Athletics never made habit of
stealing signals. and moreover, lie de-
MED that they swiped any of the
Giants signs in the worlds series.
I'VE let the other fellow believe
that we stole signals and played it for
all it was worth" said Harry "In the
opening game of the world series ]
drove home Baker with the first run
of the game with a single to left.
Because 1t was old Harry Davis
who made the bit Mathewson imme-
diately thought that | had stolen his
signs. and he quickly switched. The
Athletics always had the New York
battery up in the air, and they wor-
ried themselves sick changing their
signs when we didn't know anything
about them.'

Without his weight there was a

"Tell mother how it happened, Ed
