who died few days ago. 1t had been his hope
to round out half century of public service, but
his death came eleven months after his retire

County and to private life.
At the time when Mr.. Hamburger began to take

community Mayor Mitchell was not yet born In
fact, the Mayor did not come into being until
seven wears later Julus-most New Workers

Half a century ago Mr.. Hamburger was Re
publican. His Tammany enthusiasm was OF 3uCh
a pronounced kind that one unfamiliar with
the fact would have imagined that he was ever
anything else and certainly no one OF the present
generation knew him . member OF the he-
publican party.
As for the fighting element in his makeup ne
was just "inculcsted and inoculated' with that
spirit on his very initiation into the political
maelstrom, for those were the fighting days when
julius Hamburger went into the public arena;
those the rough days of the strong arm IN
politics, when fists counted more than facts and
bullets often took the place of ballots. j. II. car
ried on his body the mark of combat, and in
his mind the memories of numerous narrow es-
capes from death.
Before he went into politics Julius Hamburger
was something of "trimmer"-athough not in
the sense that the term is understood to-day in
politics He was in the trimming business with
his father on the East Side, in the same neigh
borhood where he born and which was his
home all his life. And talking about "trimmers"
II should be told right here that Julius Hamburger
did not agree with the California University pro-
lessor who declared that man could not be IN

mer"-which is sometimes an alternative term for
CRATER. Its simply preposterous,' quoth Sherih

HOW THE COLLEGE MAN DEALS WITH THE

In case a ticket is found in the hands of specu-
lators It's section is found on the field map. In
this way the class to which it was awarded Is
discovered. Then, by reference TO the boxes be-
longing to that class, the individual to whom
the ticket was sent is revealed within few sec
onds after the complaint is made. That unfortu-
nate man then goes on the black list unless he
can give a satisfactory explanation and his future
ticket rights are forfeited Remarkably few
tickets have fallen into the hands Of Spectators
bowever. and The black list is not as long as
might be expected. When all the tickets have
been allotted and registered in the index they
are ready for the mail.
