EDWARDS COMES
TO LILY LAKE
Announces That He Is Candidate
for United States Senator
Silzer Is Doomed.
Donnelly Also In Race

Democrats from every part of At
lantie County gathered at Lily Lake
last Saturday afternoon to confer IN
candidates for the coming election and
to hear Governor Edward l. Edwards
make the announcement that he is a
candidate for United States Senator.
The Governor was a little late in ar
irving from Sea Girt and several had
departed for their homes before he ar
rived and made his address. He said,
Il an in the race for the United
States Senatorship, and am in it to
stay and to win. If elected, l am 60
ing to keep my campaign promises.
! intend to fight, and fight in earnest
at Washington toward this end, and
for all the things in which l believe"
Following the meeting some of the
County Executive Committee stated
that the County Organization, in At
lantic County, was solidly back OF
Judge George S. Silzer for the Demo-
cratic nomination for Governor of
New Jersey. This statement is not
borne out by all that occurred at Lily
Lake. There were some Democrats
there, and they are members of the
Atlantic County Executive Committee,
who favor State Banking and Insur-
ance Commissioner William futile as
the candidate for Governor. Also
there was a man on the ground who
intends to make a fight for the nomi-
nation. This man was Mayor Fred
eriek w. Donnelly, of Trenton. \
1t was stated that Donnelly and
futile would withdraw before the
primary election takes place. DON
nelly said in his conversation with
some Democrats that he had been
working many years for other people
and he thought it now time that he
commenced to do some work for him
self. He intends to make the fight
for nomination and to stay in the fight
until the primaries are held.
District Court Judge Louis A. Re
petto acted as chairman of the meet
ing. 1t had been intended to hold a
conference on county candidates at
this gathering, but the Governor was
so late in arriving that this part of
the program was not carried out.
Prominent Democrats from other
parts of New Jersey who attended the
affair included Harry Heller, of Tren-
tan. chairman of the Democratic State
FCommittee; Joseph Fitzpatrick, of
Jersey City, yice-chairman of the
State Committee; Richard Hughes, of
Burlington, chairman of the Burling-
ton County Executive Committee; Ed
ward j. Kellerer, chairman of the
Camden County Executive Committee;
Harry Foley, secretary to Governor
Edwards; William Griffin, of Jersey
City, internal revenue agent; Edward
/. Edwards, Jr., son of the Governor.
Some of the Pleasantville people
who attended the gathering were Sec
rotary Harry Lovett, of the County
Board of Elections; former Judge c.
c. Shinn, Mr.. and Mrs. George Leech,
Mr.. and Mrs. Henry W. Lewis, Mr..

Local Team Takes
Game From Melrose
PleasantvilIe Regulars Defeat
Strong Atlantic City Nine
in Contest on Sunday.

Dump" Adams again demonstrated
on Sunday that he is still in the run
ming as a pitcher when he caused the
strong Melrose team to bow to the
Pleasantyille Regulars by the score of
seven to three. But three safe hits
were made off Adams during the nine
inning game. Charlie Doom, the for
mer Philadelphia National Lacquer,
Walter Heckle and Frank Farley,
were the only Roses" who could con-
meet with the fast balls sent over the
plate by the veteran Mainlander.
Adams also contributed further to the
winning of the game by walloping the
horse hide to center in the fourth
inning.
Nine Roses" famed the air as
Adams sent his curves toward the
home plate. He had the shore boys
eating out of his hand during the en-
tire game. Kramer started on the
mound for Melrose and lasted seven
innings. During that time he walked
five men, hit three batters and was
found for six hits.
Doom made one of the longest hits
of the game, sending the ball to deep
center and bringing Heckle and
EiudIll6 I1Oillt LII WV VI II &C
runs which Melrose secured. Green
berg was at first for Melrose, but was
later replaced by Doom who had been
behind the bat. Greenberg made
three misplays before he was succeed
ed by the big Lacquer.
Jimmy Carmack and Westcott
were absent on Sunday and this weak
ened Melrose considerably, and caused
a switching of players. Doom con-
tributed to the victory by making
overthrows to third.
~Pleasantville started the scoring in
the first round by sending across a
marker. The Roses" went one run
ahead by chalking up two counters in
their very first trip to the plate. The
Mainlanders once again went into the
lead in the second session with a two
run rally never to be headed again.

A feature of this building is a ramp

Remarkable Work
of the Magnetic

The recent achievement OF DR.. Stein
metz in concentrating enough energy to
produce a miniature thunderbolt. with
all of the characteristics of it's natural
brother. has its counterpart in a recent
development of the Robert Bosch mag
neto-the little instrument that supplies
the spark for igniting the gas in your
motor. In this case, however. the re-
markable result is exactly opposite to
that of DR.. Steinmetz.
Instead Of concentrating electric
energy the magnetic splits it up and de-
livers the tiny white sparks at the rate
OF 10000 per minute with uncanny regu-
larity.
Considering the weight of the instru-
ment. about seventeen pounds, and the
strain of continuous operation. it is a
remarkable example of the combination
of sturdiness and precision possible in
the field of mechanics to-day, where
tremendous stability with light weight Is
essential.
1t is In just such refinements of motor
construction that we may trust to bring
safety and dependability to the airplane
In much the same measure as has been
accomplished in the development OF the
motor car.

CARS
IN NEW SETTING
Now Handled in This Territory
by Fred Wright, a
Pioneer.

TWO pioneers-a car and a dealer
have joined forces here. Fred w.
Wright has taken on the we'll known
Apperson line, with headquarters at
H25 West Fifty-seventh street, just
hround the corner from Broadway.
This interesting affiliation was ar
ranged by e. w. Murdough. acting for
The factory under George II. Strout,
Eastern manager. with headquarters In
The Fisk Building.
The Apperson organization Is one of
The oldest in America making automo-
biles exclusively They started business
IN 1893 and have been continuously
hctive since. The present directing per-
Fonnel has seen few changes since that
time. The president is Edgar l.. Apper-
eon, T. L. Jerrard, vice-president; A. G..
Dawson, secretary-treasurer,/ and N. H.
Nan Sic<len. general manager.
OF late years the greater portion Of
the Apperson production has been taken
up by the Western States. where the
Ear has held a leading place in sales fig
lires. An intensive publicity and sales
'campaign now in progress in the East
ern States. aided by the unusually at
'tractive features of the new Apperson
models, will, it is expected, place the car
n a deserved position of prominence
nnd prestige in the Eastern States
The 1929 Apperson models, as has
been the case with all previous models,
fwere designed by and constructed un-
der the personal supervision of Edgar
p. Apperson. The eight cylinder engine
|of to-day has eighty less working parts
than the other eight cylinder models,
and each part is instantly accessible.
IA competent mechanic can take off the

Some Short Trips
To Good Trout Streams

The trout fishing season is now in full
swing. The "law is Off after the 1st OF
May in all States and the exponent OF
both the wet and dry fly may indulge In
his favorite sport. Since the advent OF
the automobile trout streams are no
longer inaccessible. and in many cases
good roads run alongside the streams
for miles. Small hotels that cater to
the fishermen are found in most every
town.
The fish hatcheries in most of the
States have been busy planting trout
that are large enough to hook for the
past two months. New Jersey built a
hatchery in Hackettstown eight years
ago. and millions of rainbow and square
tail trout have been raised until they
are large enough to catch. Each year
over 100000 trout are liberated in
streams throughout the State about two
months before the season opens.
Ore OF the famous trot streams In
New Jersey is the Musconetcong, which
follows the valley of the same name and
runs from the north New Jersey hills
through Beattystown and Washington,
flowing to the Delaware River neai
Phillipsburg. The Pequest River. another
