ROCHESTER TEAM BOWLS PHENOMENAL TENPIN SET

Rolling the most Sensational tenpin set
in the history of the game. the Rochester
quint OF the New York State League won
for itself an enduring place in the bowl
ing hall of fame last Tuesday night, and
by totaling 3,i37 pins for three games
set mark which will probably go I'M
challenged for many years to come. Led
on by Larry" Sutton, who smashed into
the naples for the phenomenal total of
192 pins. an average of 264 for the three
games. his team mates shot with pre-
cision and confidence which carried them
all over the double-century mark in all
the contests, the average Of the lowest
man for the set being PIT 1-3. But one
miss was chalked up against the team
in the set. while several bad splits were
turned into spares.
A dispatch from Rochester describing
the record event follows:
THE Rochester team of the New York
State Tenpin League ran wild on the al
leys Tuesday night. Before 1t had
steadied to something resembling nor
NAL pace one worlds record had been
shattered. another had been threatened
and bowling fans who had expected to
see Syracuse give the Rochester five de-
termfned resistance were in a frenzy. 1t
was a big night in Rochester tenpindOm.
''Rochester's total for the three games
was 3,497. breaking all existing records
and lettering by a big margin the score
| by which the same club stepped into
| the championship rank at Syracuse two
years ago. The score of Tuesday night
was bound to come in the natural
sequence of things. Rochester's bowling
all this season las been string of bril-
liant performances. a fact that disspates
any thought that the 3.491 last evening
was in any way due to luck.

The Teacher Vacancy

Other papers have announced that
Mrs. Harry Davenport has been elected
to succeed Miss Nettie Sparks. Such is
not the case.
| Miss Sparks gave a months notice in
February that she would quit March IA.
AT the meeting OF the Board of Education
March Sd two applicants were considered
hut no one was elected to fill the second
: grade vacancy. One applicant was 20
years old and a graduate of a Pennsyl-
! vania Normal School. The other was "a
years of age and had taught Is wears.
While nc full portraits were at hand
part Of the Board thought there were
enough short skirts IN the SCHOOL, and
favored the elderly lady. Others thought
the normal graduate the best qualified.
After several ballots no one was elected.
AT a meeting OF the 18th the vacancy
was brought up but brushed aside with
the remark that the supervisor could at
tend to the room. As the only available
plan to keep the children in school the
educational committee procured Mrs.
Davenport until the Board of Education
supplies a teacher.
1t is a vegetable situation to those ac-
quainted with the educational system
and the loss tile children sustain by not
having a regular teacher. Many think
anyone can teach children and do not
know that teaching is a professional art
with present day methods.
Last year the Aldine phonetic system
was introduced into the fist grades and
this year into the second grades. By be-
ginning the year Misses Hewitt and
Sparks have done excellent work. 1t
Will take a teacher months to fully COM
prehend the system. This method has
been invented since Mrs. Davenport
taught school and she has had no expert
ence with it in the second grade, The
pupils have progressed six months and
should have it effectively taught at the
end OF the year in order to be fully quail
fled to enter third grade next year.
The normal age to be graduated from a
high school is Is. Then two years is re-
CURED to complete the normal course
where the professional methods to quail
fy teachers are given.
The Aldine method is taught to teach
ers in the New Jersey normal schools and
in others, so small children can be given
the latest land best methods of instr uc-
tiCp. The dominating members of the
Board need 10 advice nor recommends |
tions from the educational committee nor
IRON the supervisor. AS a consequence |
the second grade room has no regular
teacher. Mrs. Davenport, who has not
regularly taught for years, is filling in
the best she can in order to keep the
children in school, so the Borough will
draw money for their attendance.
This should interest the parents of the
81 children enrolled in the room. If they
fully comprehended the loss their chill
dren will sustain by a break in the new
OF instruction, needed for effici-
ent progress to the third grade, there
would be l02 indignant insurrectos.

Congressman Browning In Town

Congressman William ]. Browning was
i'll Penns Grove OH Tuesday at the invita-
ton of Postmaster L. E. Hunt to inyesti-
gate the location of the jetty proposed by
the Wal Department at the mouth of Old
mans Creek.
1t is the belief Of many citizens that
the building of such a jetty in order to
divert the water towards the western
channel will be very detrimental to
Penns Groves natural water privileges.
1t will lead to the shoaling OF the eastern
channel so that boats which now land at
PENIS Grove will be unable to do SO.
The predominant ideas with the govern
ment engineers are to benefit deep sea
navigation.
A petition protesting against the build
ing Of the jetty has been sent to the
engineering department, but Major Ray
mond contends that the jetty will not
shoal the river at Penns Grove. Ii it
does the Government will dig it out.
Congressman Browning promised to
look after the peoples interest.

Make Oil Selling Easv.

One does not like to think of the Leg
~islature OF New Jersey is deliberately
framing and passing a bill that will pro-
duce hard language by forcing every re-
tail dealer in the state to take a course in
higher mathematics in order to carry on
business. Yet it is something like that
which has followed the going into effect
OF the new General Commodity Uniform
Price Law.
Under severe penalties it provides that
illegal price must be charged. This is
how the legal price Is formed. A basic
price ls made at the point of manufacture
or production and with the exact freight
added it makes the legal local price. Thus
Kerosene oil as a commodity of general use
is sold at Bayonne for 81 cents a gallon.
The freight to Belvidere is 60 hundredths
OF a cent, making the legal price there
9 and IL hundredths OF a cent, against
y cents flat, the present price.
The tank-wagon man and the store
keeper or the garage owner are, therefore,
up against it with these hundreths of a
cent to be translated into the coin of the
country. In large wholesale trading this
offers no difficulty, bat in tank wagon
sales the effect is confusing.
Would it not be a good thing for the
Legislature to permit these small transac-
ions to be conducted with say, half.cent
factors under some balancing arrangement
that would secure the rights of buyer and
seller and yet allow ofthe easy transaction
oil business, for there are scores of conod-
tiles other than oil to which the law an
J plies. adv.
