Safes that are hole-shy are the
latest in government service.
Formerly when yeggmen attempted
to drill holes in POST Office safes to
insert nitroglycerin to blow them
open. the worst they faced was the
breaking of a bottle of ammonia.
whose fumes would drive them away.
Now they will run smack up against
the new hole-shy safe.
The new SAFE, to be used in small
post offices where considerable money
is handled. has device adjusted to
the locking mechanism. q When a
burglar attempts to drill hole in the
safe the device locks automatically.
Then no number of holes will do any
good.
Bids were asked by the Post Office
Department today on 40 of these de-
vices. After the device locks. it is
necessary to send for an expert from
the factory furnishing the lock. He
is the only one who can coax, pry or
blow it open.
In the old days the postmaster
carefully placed his pint bottle of
ammonia in the safe. so that when
the yeggs exploded the safe it would
shatter the ammonia bottle.
While the burglars were waiting
for the fumes to clear away time
was given for the police. attracted b!

On Diamond This Year

Sunday afternoon. One thing IS
certain and that is the Amboys will
have to win here Sunday in order to
hold the county title which has re-
mained here for a great many years.
Interest in New Brunswick over
the approaching series is greater
than it has been in previous con-
tests or series, since the days of
Driscolls representative New Bruins
wick team.
The Perth Amboy Athletic Asso-
citation team record for 1922 can ne
circled around its great over
the A~quehonga nine of T~ottenville.
While the local magnates have not
done everything all season as some
fans would have them do 1t, their
victory in the series with Hilker's
team overcome all previous faults.
A year ago the Aquehongas and
Amboys could not come to terms on
a series although games of this class
were practically demanded by the
fans of the two organizations. This
season the local magnates agreed to
leave their own field on a Sunday
to play the first game of this series
and the Aquehongas did likewise
for the second game, and so on for
the third and fourth contests.
Aside from football 1t appears
practically impossible for any repre-
sentative team of Tottenville to
show to advantage over a local
representative outfit.

Bohnsack recently announced the

If the fact that H.. Whitley
Schultz was touched for a homer,
two triples, three doubles and a
mess of singles by the Landings of
New Brunswick last Sunday after
Don can be considered seriously 1t
might be well for Messrs. Applegate
and Poulsen of the Perth Amboy
Athletic Association nine to prepare
for the appearance of a hard hit
ting aggregation this Sunday.
The Landings are scheduled TO
appear here in the first contest of
a MiddleseX county championship
series this Sunday. and the second
game will be played on the New
Brunswick grounds the following
Sunday. The deciding contest of
this series, if same is necessary, will

who on the previous Sunday held

CHARLESTON
NINE TO PLAY
HiIker Changes His Mind and
Books Neighboring Com
bination for Sunday

Although Charley Hilker. mana
ger of the Aqueohnga baseball nine
of Tottenville, announced about two
weeks ago that his team had de-
feated all teams worthy of cons.cer-
alton for the championship of Stat
en- Island, the Charleston baseball
outfit of Kreischerville has been
booked to play the Tottenville rep
resentatives this Weekend.
The Charleston players have
made a real record on the diamond
this season, although its opponents
have not been as strong as those
played by Hilker's combination.
Numerous challenges have been di-
rected at the Aquehonga manager
by the followers of the Charleston
outfit and also a great many Totem
vile fans.
II. Crate will be given the mound
assignment for the visiting Charles
ton team, while Frank Dunn proc
ably will be Hilker's choice. Crate
has pitched for Rossville, had a try
out with the Tottenville nine and
also worked for other Staten Island
teams during the past several years,
There is a possibility that the re-
mainder of the Charleston lineup
will be padded In order to insure
a good showing against their neigh
boring rivals.
One of the reasons for the clinch-
ing of this booking is the fact that
the Charleston team beat the
Huguenot nine twice in three meet
ings this season. Huguenot in past
seasons has been considered a
strong contender for the island
honors.
