THE NEW PosToFFIcE FUNCTION

THE NEW POSTOFFICE FUNCTION,
While it seems good deal like over
burdening a department that i already
harassed with demands for service,
there il no doubt that the postotiice
department through its individual
postoiIices can do much toward tracing
out lost people; and now that Post
master General Hays has issued the
order directing postmasters to lend as
sistance in this line Of work the efforts
Of police, detective agencies and yari-
GUS organizations whose business It Is
to find lost persons will be powerfully
aided. These so-called lost persons are
generally those who desire to have
their identity concealed for some rea-
son or other, oftentimes just because
of perversity, forgetting or unmindful
Of the anguish Of mind which they are
causing THEN relatives and friends.
Very frequently these so-called lost
persons could be located readily
through addresses furnished by the
postofiice or by checking up at the
general delivery windows Of those call
ing for mail; but heretofore postmas
tiers and postal employees have, per-
haps, felt certain reticence about d.
yulging information in the belief that
they would be overstepping the bounds
Of their position or license. The order
removing those mental barriers does
not propose to turn postmasters and
postal employees into detectives or po-
lieemen but TO permit them to be Of
material aid in ferreting out many OF
the mysteries, which keep the police
departments of thousands OF cities
cluttered up with business that might
easily be disposed Of by the aid OF the
postoffices. That order is reasonable
as long as compliance with It does not
interfere with the service for which the
postofiice department was intended,

100000 yen (about $4,000. .00o) that

Socialism Is fighting to destroy

Let's be fair when a busher stands
UP al the bat, so he doesn't
realize where he's at. We know by
the way he is swinging the wood,
he's trying the best he knows how,
to make good. And if we just root
for him. friendly, a bit, then he
might come through with a rip
roaring hit.
The star gets a hand every time
at the plate; let's root for the BUSH
err till he becomes great. Let's be
fair to each fielder-bird when he be-
gins; what if for awhile he makes
plays with his shins? If he gums
the game with some horrible boots,
we can't Danish gloom with u
howls and our boots.
Where gallops the fielder who
plays perfect ball? The errors must
come if he's human at all. Let's be
fair to the ~ielder-lads. struggling
and NEW; it took Honus Wagner
some time to come through.
LET'S be fair to the youngster we
see on the mound, although with
base hits all the war clubs resound.
He's gaining experience with every
clout, and that's why we shouldn't
yell, "Take that guy out!" Perhaps
all he needs is a wee bit of praise to

TWO BIG GAMES
FOR LOCAL FANS

There is great interest in the
double-header to be staged on the
Auditorium court in this city tomor-
row night. In the main game the
Perth Amboy Speedways will stack
forces against the champion Jersey
City Y. NJ. Fl. A. combination, while
tn the preliminary attraction the
County Girl Stars win play h crack
South Amboy Independent girls.
Particular interest is conferred in
the second appearance of the South
Amboy girls who were nosed out in
a brilliantly played game by h
Roosevelt Centers a short time ago
The South Amboy girls are expected
to have a new player in h pivot
position in this game, while the
Misses ID. Forgotson and M. Bennett
will play forward, and the Misses
Thorn and Miller will occupy the
guard positions.
With the County Stars will be the
Misses Marie Handerhan and Mary
Nolan, two of this city's best basket
ball performers, and the Misses Eva
Shechtman and Bella Schwartz from
Roosevelt. The latter girls perform
with the Roosevelt Centers who are
credited with eight straight victories.
Miss Schwartz made eleven baskets
in a game at Midtown last night.

Roosevelt Team Shows Great
Class on Woodbridge Court
Score 1914

The strong Roosevelt Separate
basketball team travelled to Wood
bridge last night where they now
ed down the Knights of Columbus
representative team in a well played
game on the high school court, by a
score of 36-14. The visiting team
outplayed their opponents through
out this game and held the lead
throughout the greater part of the
first half, and also in the second
session.
Sam Dubrow, who featured for
the Perth Amboy Y. NJ. II. A. team
a few seasons ago, showed that he
has progressed considerably in his
around work in the contest last
night. In addition TO scoring ten
times from the field this player was
the pivot for the hoorwork of the
Separates. The Separates should
make things interesting for a major
ity of the teams in this section. Last
nights game was the second on the
schedule OF Manager Jacobowitz for
the season, the first having resulted
in a setback for the Separate quin-
tet.
At the termination of the first
period the Separates led by a score
of 25-5. and the greater part OF the
second period was given to passing
and perfection Of teamwork. Risley
led the home team in scoring. All
of the Roosevelt players scored i'll
this contest. Buckley was the elev-
enth man on the floor.
On Monday night the Separates
will play the Fighting Five in Eliza
beth. Johnny Howard, Mickey Walk
err and Willie Davis will be annexed
to the Elizabeth team for this game.

by the Speedways of this city.

KICKING Is FEATURE
OF FOOTBALL GAM E

No feature of football is more
spectacular than the kicking end of
the game.
The punt place kick or drop kick
in football. carries much the same
thrill as the stolen base in baseball.
The onside kick at one time was
a pretty play, but of late years most
of the coaches have discarded 1t n
tirely for some reason.
In only one game of any impor-
lance was the onside kick worked to
advantage last season. That was a
western game. in which the play re-
suited in tie only score of the game.
The kicking end of football gives
a big thrill. because the element or
uncertainty goes with 1T. There is
always a cnance the kick Will De
blocked. that the kicker will "hlv-
YER" or the opposing player rumble.
Since the west was generally SUI
preme in football, it was in keeping
with the records, that the leading
drop kicker of the country should
hail from the west.
The drop kicking honors of the
country go to Robert Fitzke or
wyoming, according to the dope VIC
have at hand on the seasons play.
Fitzke came through with six
drop kicks. all Of them scored in
games against standard opponents.
Four OF the six kicks were made
from a distance of 40 yards or bet
ter His greatest effort came in
the game with University of idaho.
when he L, gistered from the As
yard line.
Paul Cashier of Notre Dame also
enjoyed some of the spotlight for
classy kicking. In the Rutgers
game. which was played at the Polo
Grounds before a critical eastern
crowd. Cashier gave the experts
something to talk about. by drop
kicking successfully from the AZ
and 4S-yard lines. In the game with
Purdee he repeated, scoring o
the % and 35-yard lines.
30 McMillin, who won fame in all
other departments during the sea-
son, broke into the kicking END
strong by making three drop kicks
against Tulane in the hnal game
of the season.
