S.FOOTRALL
MEN WORKOUT
Practice Monday and YeSter-
ay--Thomas Joins Coach
ing Staff

Brisk workouts were gone through
by the high school varsity football
squad Monday and yesterday. Typ
ical football weather greeted the
men when they reported for work.
Owing to the departure of Doc"
Emmons for Springfield, David
Hank" Thomas has been added
to the local coaching staff. Thomas
like Allen, is well known in athletic
circles.
Mondays practice was held under
the watchfulness of Allen. Allen
is not known for his easy going
tactics and it was a consid-
cradle mussed up squad when the
session ended. Those in ''civies''
were made to "eat the dust as
well as those in regular football at
tire.
That the rudiments of Aliens
teachings were driven home show
ed itself when the squad reported
for practice yesterday under the
supervision of Head Coach Wad-
dell. Thomas and Allen were on
deck yesterday. Milton Mann also
assisted in this practice.
The ends were put through a
process of receiving and throwing
forwards, while the guards and
tackles followed a routine work of
calisthenics, drilling, etc. The
backield men were instructed how
to circle ends, draw opposing ends
out of position and similar stunts
Practice will be continued this
afternoon.

TWELVE TEAMS ENTER

The organization of the Elks state
bowling league for 1929 was
practically completed at q meeting
held in the Elks home. Elizabeth.
on Sunday afternoon. Twelve teams
will be entered in the circuit again
this season.
A league ordinance requiring ev-
cry team entering the circuit to have
their own alleys, resulted ia the New
Brunswick lodge being kept out this
season inasmuch as the county seat
lodge is without home alleys. The
last time New Brunswick entered it
was not necessary for everyone to
have home alleys.
The local lodge took a liking TO
the plan of the New Brunswick
lodge to enter the league for then
there would be greater interest in
the league for the members of the
two lodges. New Brunswick and
Perth Amboy have always been RI
IN all branches of sport.
Paterson, the winner OF the
league last year, did not have a
representative present at Sundays

Bic SUCCESS
Annual CIambake Held Sat-
urday-- New York Wins
Ball Game

At Nickenig's Grove, Maurer, on
Saturday last the annual clambaNe
of the United Lead Works was held.
Employees of the New York office
and the local plant were present and
an enjoyable time was had.
The big event was the baseball
game between the local employees
and Il. New York Office force. The
visitors punched their hits in the
third inning for five runs and won
out SO. Manager Jim Hopkins of
the New York aggregation coached
his team from the sidelines during
the entire contest. Pfeiffer and
Mitruska pitched for the home team
and O'Hara for the visitors.
After the game an old-fashioned
clambake prepared by Head Chef
Pavese and a corps of assistants
was partaken of. Amboy won over
New York in an eating contest and
Cashier John Kelley, Tom Fine and
Pete Johannsen battled for honors
in the clam eating contest. the
cashier finally winning out.
Straw hats worn by Bill Dewey
and Jim Hopkins were destroyed at
this time. The sad features of Mike
Stolz were found to be due to the
fact that the chicken served by the
chef was not kosher. Speeches were
made by Cashier Kelley and Bert
Sofield.

this event were Assistant Traffic
Manager d. r. Norris. General
Auditor James H.. Hopkins, Tom

BRIEF BITS OF SPORTS
IN ALL FIELDS

Amboy Athletic Association nine.
This series will decide the cham
pionship of Middlesex county.
Some fans figure that Babe
Ruth will nose out Ken Williams or
the major league home run hitting
championship in the three game
series the Yankees will play with
the Boston Red Sox the last three
days of this month.
The New Brunswick Lodge of
Elks will not be represented in the
Elks state bowling league this sea-
son, due to the fact hat the county
seat lodge is without home alleys.
There is added interest in the Tot
tenville-Perth Amboy baseball game
scheduled for this Sunday because
of the announcement made by the
A~quehonga manager that he will
strengthen his lineup for this con
test.
Better pitching should enable the
American league winner to beat the
National league entry in the worlds
series this year. The Yankee staff
is stronger than that of the Giants.
1t is said that Schultz, Railway
hurler who held the Amboys to three
hits here last Sunday, enabling Rah-
way to win 80, has been beaten only
once this season. He has worked
against all of the leading Union
county teams.
The Pittsburgh Pirates, runner up
in the National League pennant race,
have what might be considered a
hopeless fight before them.

BY GEORGE S.WYCkOEF
cont Executive. Terre Haute. Ind

col Executive, Ierre Haute, lnu.
Someone has said that when God
made the first man he made the
world significant, but when he made
the first boy he made it interesting.
Teachers know only o well the "a
pacity a boy has for making things
interesting, and this capacity for
making things interesting is nothing
more nor less than what we have
long called the hoy problem"
And did you ever stop to think
tina. all of u familiar problems
the crime problem, the labor prob
lem, the church problem, the poll
teal problem, the war problem-arc
but the hoy problem grown up?"
Ffdgets Analysed
1t has appeared to another observ-
er that mar is made of dust, but q
boy is made of dust-plus-electricity.'
A teacher would express this by say
ing the boy is a fidgetarian," and
''fdgetarianism" analysed is found
to be constituted of nothing more
alarming than instincts, to run
climb, throw, gang, build. hide, col
lect, make campfires and the dra-
matte and religious instincts.
Education by Directed Doing
All of these instincts, inconVen-
lent as they are in the school room,
are nevertheless the '%tadpole's tail
They cannot be cut off: they must lie
absorbed and utilized for full de-
velopment. And as the highest aim
OF education is full development, we
have in the Scout plan for applying
these instincts a great big education
program to supplement that of the
CChnG1g that nf fhn nhIIrHh an6 that
of the home.
And, of course. this point in a DIS
course on the educational aspect of
scouting could not be passed without
reference to Dean RusselIs celebrat-
ed statement that the scout pro-
gram is the most significant educa-
tiCnal movement of the age 1t is
character education by directed do
ing of the things that a boy natur-
ally wants to do. 1t is recognition
of the fact that a boy is being edu-
cated-that is, he is receiving i'm
pressions and forming habits folr
waking hours out of school to n
that he is being educated in school.
Scouting the Game of Character
Culture
In the brief, the plan works like
this: On one side we set up the
things we want the boy to do; on the
other side we put the things that he
naturally wants to do; we tie them
together and make it all n game,
and because they are part of the
game he just simply insists on liv-
ing Up to all the virtues prescribed
The things we want the boy to do
are represented in the twelve points
of the Scout law:
A Scout Is trustworthy.
A Scout Is loyal.
A Scout Is helpful.
A Scout is friendly.
A Scout is courteous.
A Scout is kind.
A Scout is obedient.
A Scout is cheerful.
a Scout is thrifty.
A Scout Is brave.
A Scout is clean.
a Scout is reverent.

Ella Bend Will Become Known AS The Marketing Center OF The
Most Productive Agricultural Lands OF The Southwest

The city of Gila Bend is especially well located
to be of direct benefit to anyone who moves into the
Gia Valley being located on a main line railroad
having direct outlet the coast or gulf points for
the shipping out of agricultural products and the
shipping into the valley of the necessary farming
implements and supplies. But in addition to the rail
facilities is the outstanding fact that the city of GiIa
Bend is already formed with convenient stores filled
with standard high grade merchandise and with a
great enough variety of types of business to accom-
modate any needs that may come to the rail worker
or the farmer who will eventually move into the ella
River Valley territory The building of the Giles
pie Dam increased the need Of Ga and caused it to
grow suddenly and now comes the water through
the main canals assuring the merchants of the city
that in the future they will be in more demand than
ever before and that larger stocks will be needed
Enterprisng merchants from all the surrounding
larger towns have visited Gla recently with the idea
of making certain locations and the Halstead Lum-
Der Company with its branch office now in full
operation is convincing proof that the eyes of the
progressive merchants from the capitol city are
watching the activities of Gila Bend closely.

MERE POSSESSION
OF DEER HORNS NOT
GROUNDS FOR FINE

The bare fact of having In ones
possession pair of deers horns
does not carry with it the presump
ton that he had unlawfully killed
the former proprietor OF the horns,
and if he has not done so. the horns
are not unlawfully in his possession,
according to decision of the SUI
preme court yesterday reversing the
Judgment of the lower court of Ma
yaio county against Tom Smith.
Smith was arrested for having in
his possession IS pairs of deer horns,
four sets being locked" The others
were single. Smith admitted that
he had not obtained the permission
of the state game warden to hold the
horns, but he said he had permission
from the forest supervisor of the
Grand Canyon game preserve. He
was convicted and sentenced to pay
a fine of $500.
1t may be set down as a general
proposition that no one in possession
of locked horns has come into pos
session of them unlawfully: that is,
it is pretty certain that he did not
kin the deer to which they formerly
appertained. Deer whose horns are
found locked are always the victims
of mortal combat. Once locked. the
deer are unable to release them
selves, and if they do not soon die
of exhaustion, they perish of hun
ger or fall an easy prey to predatory
animals. Usually when horns are
found locked. there is little or moth
ing else of the deer in the vicinity
except scattered bones.
Locked horns are especially valued
by collectors. The greatest collec-
ton of deer horns in the world was
that of the famous "Buckhorn Sa-
loom which, next to the Alamo. was
the chief show place of San Antonio,
Texas, before the volstead era.
There were several sets of locked
horns in the collection. One day the
proprietor received a large set from
a friend or agent in Montana. IL
was a very large set, requiring
hogshead for it's transportation. The
horns had been shipped just as they
were found, covered with dirt and
desert growth.
The horns were turned over to a
hobo who had been given tenn
porary job as "swamper. He was
told to clean the horns and was then
left to himself. After some hours
he reported proudly to the pro-
prietor that the job was completed,
and he added:
Il had the DEVILS own time gettin'
them horns apart.
The proprietor being in friendlier
mood than usual that day. did not
kill the hobo outright, but took him
by the collar and led him to the door
whence he tried to kick him across
the street.
