CHESWOLD-DOVER ROAD
CONCRETE ALL POURED AND ROAD MAY
BE OPENED WITHIN A MONTH.

With the blowing of the engine
whistle until all the steam had been
exhausted, and a general handshaking
winding up with feast of good things
10 the employees, the first lap of the
State highway between Dover and
Cheswold was completed, Saturday
evening last, shortly after 6 o'clock.
That the completion of the work might
be witnessed by others than the en-
ployes Chief Engineer Upham had
Mayor Magee and the newspaper rep
go out and witness the
LAYING of the last few feet Of concrete.
This last strip of work was just below
the State College, on the State Road
from Dover to Cheswold, which COM
pletes the full seven miles or nearly
so from Dover to Cheswold. The
road will not be opened for traffic,
however, until nearly three weeks or
about June 10.
The road completed has a width OF
16 feet, two feet wider than the Sussex
county dupont Boulevard, and is
claimed by the engineers to be con-
structed deeper and Of better material
than the Sussex road. With the sever
miles completed and with traffic op-
ened, a detour of less than three miles
will be necessary from Dover t.
Smyrna, the detour being made a
Bishops Corner, leading into Ches
void, to Bradford, where the way t
the completed portion Of the Smyrn;
road may be taken.
There are about three miles Of roa'
yet to be built from Cheswold o.
Bishops Corner, on the strip from tina
place to Smyrna. This will likely b
completed by July.

QUIET DECORATION DAY

Decoration Day in Milford this year
was quiet, and the people generally
enjoyed themselves, Those in Milford
and the surrounding country who en-
loved baseball were more than enter
tanned by the two games played here
between the Caulk Club and Fort
Salisbury. The morning game was
one of the best seen here in years.
For nine innings both teams played
without scoring. In the tenth inning
the Caulkers landed three runs, and
in their half of the tenth the Salisbury
boys managed to score two runs; the
final score was to 2 in favor Of the
Caulkers. The afternoon game, while
not so good as the morning game,
was a fine game. The Fort Salisbury
boys won this game in the ninth in
ming. The score was 4 to 3.
Those who enjoy horse racing went
to Harrington where fine races were
the order. Several hundreds Of per-
sons were in attendance at that place
and all report a fine time, and extra
ordinarily good racing.
Milford chronicle., 1919-06-06
CAULK CLUB NOTES

Well, we won two out of three games
from Fort Salisbury and we didn't
load up to do it. Legar was at his
best in the game he pitched and laid
down a neat bunt in the tenth that
made victory possible. Counselman
broke up the game. With the sacks
loaded in the tenth he drove the ball
to center field and three runs, just
enough to win, crossed the plate. The
hit was a twenty dollar one, as E. M.
Davis, a member of the Caulk Club,
offered five dollars for each run and
the hits that drove them in. Armel
Nutter caught Legar well and was
there with the stick.
We lost the afternoon game Mem
orial Day but Collins pitched a good
game and deserved a better fate.
E. Murphy, Legar and H. PettyJohn
got three hits apiece in that game.
Caulk got fourteen hits, ten in the last
eight innings, and never scored after
the first, due to the good fielding of
Fort Salisbury.
The final and deciding game was
played Saturday afternoon and was
featured by the splendid pitching of
Wiley. He pitched shut-out ball and
made two hits and scored two runs.
All the High School players made
good.
The Caulk Club will play a series of
games with the Middletown team,
which promise to be hard fought and
interesting. The first game will be
played Saturday, June 14th, at Mid
