An automatic %carburetor has been
developed In England for which aston
ishing claims are made. The detailn
of Its construction are withheld, but
Its performance is said on good au-
thority to be remarkable. During q
demonstration test it was used on o
two -cylinder, Sir-horsepower motor
cycle. The start was made with the
engine cold and the float chamber half
filled with gasoline. The change to
kerosene, while under way. produced
no noticeable difference in the per
Torrance of the engine. There was no
knocking on grades. no smoke. no
odor. The cylinders fred crisply. the
pickup was quick, the firing regular at
all speeds, and the power all that could
be desired. 1t Is even claimed that,
with the new c~arburetor, a gallon Of
kerosene will drive the motorcycle
and sidecar the unheard-of distance Of

Pieted-- May Start April IL
tBy H. s Correspondentl

Over fourteen candidates reported
Tor age practice yesterday afternoon
at the local high school gym for the
p. A baseball team Yesterdays try
outs were the first for this ear and
the Tow of rockies hat turned out
would indicate a truly successful sea-
son. Many failed to turn out on ac-
count of a Science Club lecture after
school. Coach Burns had the play
ors throwing the ball rou in order
to imber up their arms.
The veterans from last years var
kty who reported out were Billy
Flynn, who pitched On the Is team
and who will no doubt fill the same
position this year. Jimmie Silver will
probably hold down the catching po-
sition. Silver was second string catch
err last yea and has been developing
rapidly. This dependable battery
should compare with the best in h
state. Both have received offers from
senior organizations In this city ask
ing for their services. but these Offers
have been turned down by Silver and
Flynn. who will give all their time to
the Z. A. II. S.. nine. Red" Splitter,
Thowald Olsen and Jake Levine also
of the rs team turned out yesterday
and showed up well for their first
practice With such a nucleus q strong
nine will no doubt be out on the field
repre-. enting Amboy High for this
season. Others who reported for yes
terday's practise session were, Ira
Grouse, Barney Durham, Frank Fo-
gel. Watson tombstone, Isidore Du-
brow n Joe Lewkowitz. "Wee" Al
len, veteran third baseman will be out
for about two weeks, as he split his
finger yesterday. This leaves a wide
gap to be filled until Allen can re-
turn to the game again. The first game
was scheduled for April IL with North
Plainfield at their grounds but 1t
Is thought that this encounter will
have to be cancelled as the local nine
will not be in first class shape by that
time.

 Rails and food shares, which suf- fered severely in the several recent de- lines also rallied vigorously, large
