FOOD ADMINISTRATOR IMPOSES
SHARP PUNISHMENT ON GROCERS
VIOLATING FOOD REGULATIONS
Gnsbergs Required to CONTRIBUTES 500 to War Work
Fund-Jacob Gulub Must Post ''Violator's Sign"
He Cannot Buy Licensed Goods For Duration of
the War.

at 500 East Main street under the
firm name of Quatrella and Pannucci
pleaded guilty to the charge of SELL
ing flour without substitute upon the
advise of counsel. Owing to the fact
that they admitted their guilt and
promised to abide by the laws in the
future, they were fined $25 to be
paid to the United War Work cam
paign and are to have a violation
notice posted in their store for q per-
iod of a week, beginning Tomorrow,
Nov. 6.
Charles Schiff, owner IF three pro-
Gerry stores and meat markets in the
city was ordered to pay 500 to the
United War Work fund. He pleaded
guilty to allowing flour to be sold
in his East Main street store without
substitute. Mr.. Schiff did not co.,
duct the sale himself, ana as ne
pleaded guilty, he got off with an
apparently nominal fine for the
amount of business he transacts. A
violation notice will be placed in tie
store for the period of week.
B. W. Ring who has store at 14S
Hallett street pleaded guilty to the
charge of selling without the neces-
sary substitutes, but claimed that
this was done to dispose of a large
amount of barley flour which would
have otherwise been unfit for use,
he was allowed to go with fine OF
$40 and was advised to be more care
full in the future.
J. Pivarnick and wife appeared to
answer the charge against them, and
Mrs. Pivarnick took the stand as she
spoke better English than her hus-
band. At the point of tears sne re-
peated over and over that, ST never
see that woman, never sell no f1our
without substitute" in speaking OF
the Food Administration representa-
tive who had purchased the flour
The price asked for the flour was
excessive, but owing to the small
amount of business transacted in the
store, and the aid promised the Ad-
ministration the sentence was sus-
pended.
The case of S. Derosa was post
poned until next week owing to the
fact that the defendant could speak
no English, and seemed to be COM
pletely at sea as to the nature of the
whole business. He was ordered tc
appear Monday however, and actio-
will then be taken.
J. I,eichtman of 2344 Fairfield ave
nue. was dismissed with a warning as
the violation in this case was ,evid'
emily not intentional. The witness fol
the administration had previousl'
stated to the attorney that a clerr
in the store had made the violation
through inability to figure correctly.
Three other violators failed to pu
in an appears-lce, and will be deal
with in a severe manner at the hear
ing to be held Monday afternoon.

INTERNATIONAL.
Eco CONTEST

The seventh International egg lay
ing contest at Storrs ended late We'd
nesday afternoon when hen No. 1872,
q White Leghorn from Lakewood, N.
J., laid the last egg. The two out
standing features of the competition
just ended are the remarkable per-
Torrance of pen of birds from Cor
wallis, Ore, and the individual work
done by White Wyandotte hen No. 1875
from Bridgeton, r. I. At this point
ii may be said that during the past
five years the poultry department at
Storrs has trap nested over 5000 hens
representing thirty different breeds
and varieties from twenty states and
including birds from Canada and Eng
land. The pen of "Oregons'' entered
by the Oregon Agricultural College
has beat them all. These ten birds
laid 1852 eggs as compared with the
best previous record of 2,265 made
two years ago by a pen of White Wy
andottes. Connecticut's best birds
were Buff Wyandottes5 entered by H.
P. Cloyes of Hartford.
The best individual record has also
been broken. During ten years OF
trap nesting 2S6 eggs has been the
best that any one hen could do un:il
this White Wyandotte owned by Ooed
G. Knight finished up the year WIKI
308 eggs. Besides winning first at
Storrs this bird is second best in a
class of only four American hens with
official records of more than 800 eggs
each. The following table shows
these four leading LAYERS with THAR
records and where they were made.

In the Barred Rock class hen No
112 from Palenville, N. Y, was first
with a score of 264 eggs. Hen No
673 from Hollywood, Wash, with q
record of 233 eggs was the best White
Leghorn for the year. In the Rhode
Island Red Glass hen No. 42s from
| Southboro, Mass, was first with g
yield of 24O eggs.
! The grand total for all pens was
158,920 or an average of about is

Washington, Nov. president Will

cable yesterday to the King of Italy:
MAY 1 not say how deeply and
sincerely the people Of the United
States rejoice that the soil of Italy is
delivered from her enemies? In their

thusiastic congratulations.
"Woodrow Wilson"

sador Sharp at Paris, yesterday sent

nino, Italian Minister for Foreign
Affairs, now in Versailles attending
the sessions of the Supreme War
Council:
"At the moment of the complete
victory of the italian arms I take this
means of conveying to you my most
sincere congratulations. The Govern

PLAN TO Teach
SOLDIERS TRADES
ON Their RETURN
Y.M.C.A. to Give opportun
ity to Men to Learn New
Ways of Getting Living.

London, Nov. 5.----(Correspondence
of The Associated Press.) ---ThoU-
sands of American soldiers who have
never had any trade are going to have
a chance to learn one under the tute-
lage of Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation instructors before they return
to America. It is hoped by this plan
that the soldiers, no matter what
their vocation before the war, will go
back home better equipped for it or
for something better than before they
enlisted.
Fifty instructors from the United
States already are busy with classes
of American soldiers in the United
Kingdom and at least so more are
needed before January 1, 1919. It is
estimated that for each of the 100 Y.
NJ. C. A. secretaries enlisted in this
work five volunteer instructors can be
obtained from the ranks of the SOL
diers. This would give a faculty in
1.-THE British Isles of 600 men capable of
teaching 10000 men in actual class
work; between 10000 and 10000 in cor
respondence studies and of giving lee
lures every week to from $4,000 to
so, 900 troops.
The work in France is much greater,
of course, and there the Y. M. c. A.
is receiving the cooperation of the
military forces in fitting the Ameri-
can soldier for a useful occupation
when he has finished the job under
Generals Foch and Pershing.
This great Y. M. c. A. plan is based
upon the work the New Zealand Y.
M. C. A has done in England which
has challenged American admiration.
American workers have visited the
New Zealand camp for convalescent
troops in the southwest of England
where the New Zealanders are cult
waiting intensely a 40-acre farm and
where the New Zealond troops are
learning to be better farmers than
ever.
|. Technical instruction for American
soldiers is to include the study of
automobile gas engines and aircraft
engines; mathematics, from arith-
metic to trigonometry; mechanical
drawing, agricultural drawing and
typographical draughting; plan read
ing and estimating; principles of me-
chanics; principles of electricity; arts
and crafts; general principles of ag-
riculture, which will include model
farms and demonstration in truck
gardening and the raising of poultry,
hogs, cattle, ETC., with courses in
dafrying and every other branch of
farm work.

DIVISION Of
ARMY IMMENSE
Great Task Imposed by War
Costs Billion for Material
and Labor.

Washington, D. c., Nov. 5-The
Construction Division of the Army is
without doubt the most extensive or
ganization of it's kind in the history
of the world. The approximate value
of construction projects undertaken
by this branch of the government
since the United States entered the
war is one billion dollars. The figures
representing the material used and
the men employed are staggering.
Two hundred and fifty thousand work
ers have been under the control of
the Division at one time.
Among the Divisions present ur-
gent needs are SO chiefs of survey
party at $2,700 to $4,000 a year; SO
transit men at $4,000 a year; % lev
elmen at $4,000 a year; 125 rodmen at
$500 a year, and so topographic
craftsmen at $4,000 a year, These
positions are open to men only except
the drafting positions, which are
open to both men and women. All
of the positions are in the civil, not
the military, service.
Persons interested should apply to
the United States Civil Service Com
mission, Washington, D. c., or to the
secretary of the local board of civil
service examiners at Boston, New
York, Philadelphia, Atlanta, Cincin-
natl, Chicago, st. Paul, st. Louis, New
Orleans, Seattle or San Francisco.
Applicants will not be required to
undergo a written examination, the
examination being of the "non-as-
sembled" type; that is, the ratings
will be based upon education, training,
experience and physical ability as
shown by the applications and corro-
borative evidence. The positions
offer an excellent opportunity for
patriotic service, and the Civil Ser
vice Commission urges qualified per-
sons to apply without delay.

|BRICKLEY LEADS
NAVY GRIDDERS
AGAINST RUTGERS
Famous Drop Kicker Has
Added Many Stars to
His Team.

George Foster Sanford's Rutgers
eleven and Charles Brickley's Navy
Transportation team of Hoboken will
meet on Nelson Field at New Bruins
wick this afternoon. IT'S the only
big football game carded for this sec
ton, although there will be scholastic
games both at the Polo Grounds and
Ebbets Field.
Both the Rutgers and Navy players
went through a hard scrimmage yes
terday and a bitter battle is sched-
uled. Sanford has instructed ms pu-
pills that to beat the sailors it is only
a matter of stopping the famous Har-
ward star. Yale found this impossible
a few years back.
The Rutgers players appeared at
Ebbets Field last season against ecu
pid" Blacks famous Newport eleven.
In that game Sanford told his pets
that if they could stop Black they
would achieve victory. Black was
stopped, and Newport suffered its
only defeat of the year.
Brickley has added several former
college players to his team, and no
doubt will give the Rutgers eleven
hard fight. Brickley, of course,
will carry most Of the attack for the
service eleven.
At the Polo Grounds Commerce
and Morris High will meet in their
annual game. This ought to be an
4 easy victory for Morris, as Commerce
has been lamentably weak all season,
both on the attack and defense.
There will be a double-header at
Ebbets Field. In the first game Com
mercial will mingle with Boys High.
The late game will bring together
Erasmus Hall and Manual. Neither
of the last two team has lost a game
this season.

FOR HIS HURTS
IN ACCIDENT

is the basis of a suit for $4,000 dam
ages filed in the common pleas court
by Morris Lessuck against Morris

necticut Coffee Co. The complaint

STROMBOLPS WIN
VERY EXPENSIVE

Baltimore, Nov. 5-The bitter was
mixed with the sweet for Sam c.
Hildreth at the Pimlico track yester-
day. He won two races with Cirrus
and StromboH, but will only collect
one purse. Maxey Hirsch, who is
waging a war against HiIdreth be-
cause the latter claimed several of
his horses this Fall, bid up Stromboli
from $4,000 to $4,000, just $500, the
value of the purse. Hildreth would
not let the famous old gelding go and
bought him in for $3,2O5.
There was not much profit in the
two races for HiIdreth because the
odds were SO small Cirrus was at
to 4. His hackers received better
odds for the place, as he paid 10
cents more for each place ticket than
he did straight. Stromboh paid 8 to
II 5. Each horse won by nearly two
lengths after racing in third place to
the lead of the stretch.
Cudgel, the champion handicap
horse of the year, and rated by Han
dicapper Vosburgh as the best horss
in America, is developing osslets.
Trainer Bedwell will try to check
the growth of osslets sufficiently to
start Cudgel in the Bowie Stakes, at a
mile and half This is rich event
After the Bowie, Cudgel will be
''ired' and turned out of training in
the hope that he will be all right
next season.
The Manley Memorial Stakes,
worth 10000, the most valuable
steepIechase in the United States, will
be run off today. A big delegation
of men belonging to the Long Island
hunting and cross-country clubs came
over to witness the contest
The committee appointed by the
government to supervise the race for
the remount horses report that ten
horses are capable of standing the or
deal of the trial. Army officers will
take part in the race.

of a child who had been named after
him, was trying to show his apprecia-

the dear child walk?"
"Oh, yes, he has been walking fol-
