DOPE IS UPSET IN OPENING GAME Wise Ones Looked for Bush to
 Beat Giants

New York, oct. 5.-tBy Associated Pressl-Dope. like bowlG of milk can be upset as proved by tn. nine of Me- Graw in taking the first game or the world series from the Tanks 10 2,
 Huggins, the mite of an American, who leads the Yankees, hopes to sal wage some of the fluid by selecting Bob Shawkey for the twirling office today
 Men called experts, declared that the Americans with Bush, one of the most highly rated pitchers of the sea son. would be inNncible. Sportsmen accepted that dope and bet on it. Bush was poked from the pitching mound by MeGraws pummelers and now the dope bowl is upside down,
 Locks Like Shawley
 Bob Shawkeys name has been heard and applauded during other world series. He is in form this year. He wears red undershirt just like the one worn by Mir. Bush, But red undershirts neither win nor lose ball games. McGraw has chosen Jess Barnes. the raney Oklahoman, who brought the Giants out of the depth of defeat in the championship games last fall. Huggins will use Shawkey and Carl Mays probably will be called upon to relieve him, while Deacon John" Scott was told to keep warmed up, ready for action in case Barnes needed relief.
 Ymks Need Hitting
 The Tanks, even with Shawkey at his best, will need to bring to bear some of their batting ability in order to win today, said little Huggins. We know" he added, that the Giants are fighters and that the only way to beat them is to wade in and play their game.
 "A smooth, beautifully working ma chine is my team. But even a good machine will stop running if some body hits it with a sledge hammer. We'll have to pound them so hard they won't be able to overcome us.'
 Today the Tanks are home bodies, wearing their tidy light uniforms and resting on the home bench while the Giants sit in the visitors dugouts.

MATIY AT GAME
Big Six Witnesses Opening of Worlds series-Jack Dempsey Dis
 appointed When Ruth Strikes Out.

New York, Oct. 5.-Christy Math- ewson (Big SiX), perhaps the great est and best loved pitcher in base ball, was at the opening worlds series game. His great slow moving frame shook with excitement during the tense moments of the game. It was his first glimpse of a worlds series since he went to Saranac Lake, N. Y., few years ago to fight for his life. Matty appeared well. He said he felt fine.
 Several rows behind Mathewson sat Jack Dempsey, worlds heavyweight boxing champion. Jack is somewhat of fan. He enjoyed the game, but was disappointed when Ruth failed to get home run. T like to see Babe clout 'em,' said Jack. "Cloutin' is my business, too, you know"

CONFER MONDAY
ON CROSSINGS
City Officials Will Meet R. R.
Engineers on City Sewer
Plans
VERY IMPORTANT ACTION
Plan is to Take Care of Sewer
Outlets at Time of Cross
ing Action

The grade crossing elimination
conference between members of the
Board of Aldermen, City Engineer
Morgan F.. Larson. City Attorney
Leo Go1dberger. and engineers and
attorneys of the Pennsylvania
railroad, the Central Railroad of
New Jersey, an dLehigh Valley rail-
road will be held Monday morning in
Jersey City.
City Clerk Arthur f. Graham, who
was instructed by the aldermen at
their meeting Monday to communi-
cate with the railroads in order that
their officials might set date for a
conference with city representatives
on the crossing elimination matter,
this morning received a telephone
call from Chief Engineer Owens of
the Central railroad setting 1880
o'clock Monday morning in his Jer-
sey City office, as the time for the
meeting. Mr.. Owens informed the
city clerk that the representatives
of the other railroads would be pres
ent at the conference in order that
all matters relative to the proposed
plans might be discussed officially
and intelligently.
The aldermen have requested this
meeting in order to learn from the
railroads just what their plans are
for going ahead with the work. The
city has before it the problem OF
constructing a trunk sewer to care
for the sewer mains in the western
section of the city as the new rail-
road plan will make it impossible to
operate the present sewers. 1t will
be necessary for the city to lay a
trunk sewer to the west of the rail-
roads, extending south to the Kari
tan river to care for the outlet of
mains now serving that section OF
the city west of the tracks.
1t is proposed to have this trunk
sewer go under the railroad tracks
along the waterfront and continue
east along the river. thus taking
care of the sewer mains which now
open into the river. Numerous COM
plants have been received for years
regarding these sewer outlets as the
pipes do not extend sufficiently far
out into the water to be covered by
water at all times. This proposed
new trunk sewer will remedy these
conditions
City Clerk Graham has also COM
municated with officials of the Bar
ber Asphli: Company requesting
them to set a date for conference
with the aldermen, city engineer ana
city attorney. to take up the Amboy
avenue paving project. AS the new
route will go through lands owned
by the Barber Asphalt Company
some agreement must be reached
whereby this land will be acquired
by the CITY. No date for this con-
ference has been set by the asphalt
company as yet.

LOCAL MAN PUT
ON PROBATION
Charged With Stealing Gold
at AS. & R. Plans Other
Cases Are Heard

NEW BRUNSWICK, July 21:-
John Hubiner forty-four years old,
of Perth Amboy. who has pleaded
guilty to an indictment charging
him with the theft of ten ounces of
gold from the plant of the Ameri-
can Smelling & Refining Company.
was placed on probation when ar
raigned before Judge DAILY for sem
tence this morning.
Investigation by the prosecutors
Office and the probation officer fall
ed to show that Hubiner had taken
the gold to dispose of for his per-
sonal gain. it developed, and the
six months probation was fixed as
his penalty. Harry S. Medinets, at
torney for the defendant, called the
courts attention to the fact that
Hubiner had been in the employ of
the company for twenty years and
that he had never stolen before. In
this instance, Mr.. Medinets said.
Hubiner's act was caused by the de-
sire to have a souvenir of the pre-
cious metal in which he constantly
worked
On this ground the attorney re-
quested the court to consider tho
case from an angle different from
that in the other gold case involving
otciVI hiCtoi iici' NV
concern.
Hubiner's guilt was discovered
through a Perth Amboy school
teacher who saw several of her
students playing with small chunks
of pure gold. A police investigation
revealed the fact that they hal
come from a coal bin in Hubiner's
cellar. The prisoners son had
traded one piece for a lollypop but
all of the stolen metal has been re-
turned to the company. according
to Assistant Prosecutor John T..
Toolan.
John Zeher. forty-seven, of
Woodbridge, was sent to the work
house for six months when arraign-
ed for sentence under a plea of
guilty to an assault on his wife
Bertha. Franklin NJ. Ritchie, the
prisoners counsel. made a plea for
leniency on account of ctrcum-
stances existing prior to the attack.
He said that his client had been put
out of the house by his wife and
that in his anger he picked up an
axe and battered the door in. When
the portal gave way the handle OF
the weapon struck Zeher's wife,
who was standing inside. Probation
Officer MacWilliam, however. re-
ported tnat the w OOuDrluge ponce

David II. Wilentz, as attorney for
Steve Mycek. of Perth Amboy. who
signed a waiver of indictment and
trial by jury on an arson accusation,
appeared before Judge Daily this
morning and requested the waiver be
removed. Mr.. Wilentz made his re-
quest on the ground since he had
been retained as counsel for the de-
fendant, he had discovered circum-
stances that he thought would per-
nit an adequate defense to be made
In view of the seriousness of the
charge Judge DAILY granted the re-
quest.
Mycek was arrested as the result
of drunken frenzy, during which
he put his family out of the house,
set fire to the building, and then
paced up and down before the blaz-
ing home and refused to allow fire.

industrial court and picketing law,
which he was informed last night
was in preparation by Attorney Gen
eral r. j. Hopkins
Mr.. White and Governor Allen are
life long friends. and Mr.. White has
supported the governor throughout
his administration. Even in the face
of impending action against him he
said yesterday there is no personal
feelings between Governor Allen and
me. He is making splendid gov
efnor."r
Hearing of the impending arrest
Mr.. White restated his defiance of
the ruling of the court that to dis
play signs of sympathy with the
striking men was against the law.
He said he would not take down the
signs which he placed tu he ONCE
of his paper, the EmpC lette.
The sign reads:
I'VE are for the striking Fay
men SO per cent. We are for Nv
ing wage and fair living conditi MS. .

The governor said that Mr.. White
