Each year sees more entries to the Industrial games, and an increase in the number of spectators Under the direction of Peter Carney the events were run off in good order, and the maj ority of the events afforded keen competition. It was generally sup posed that Geometric would take pre-
 mier honors, and Eastern Machine Screw follow them, but the dopesters failed to look over the Winchester
 entries. The Winchester team took
 seven of the 10 individual events and
 topped this off by whining the relay scoring in all 48 points out of a pos sible oo.
 Harold Fitzsimmons with three lhrsts and one third place, led with IS
 points, with Petzol second in points with two wins. In one event only did Winchester's fail to get placed the last on the program, the shot put Geometric failed to get a man placed in either the 88o yard run or
 the shot put, but they scored in every other event, Marks leading the club with 10 points.
 Sheehan again won the standing broad jump i'll good fashion, but Fred
 Dunn of Berger Bros. failed to take tAC oLOl put llllS year, stepping dSlQe for Gruber of Seamless who threw Al feet 3A inches.
 Jim Bullock, the lanky first base
 man of the Geometric, finished third
 in the low hurdles, but showed lack
 of training, and the same applies to San Marco of Greists, who lost sec
 ond place i'll the 40, at the tape when his lack of condition told on him.
 Petzol of Winchesters, who took
 the 88o yard and one mile, is a fine
 runner, with a graceful stride, and although the time was slow for both events he could doubtless have bet tered it, had he been pushed any The staff of officials was very com
 plete, and included many Yale officials

 ent local authorities on sport served in some capacity or other-even Bob by Hatz, for no athletic event at Yale Is complete without Bob there Ito do the announcing.

SAFETY FIRST" WORK
 LOWERS ACCIDENT COSTS

Olympia, Wash, Sept I5.-In a bulletin issued by the state depart ment of labor. and industries it is shown that "safety first" activity re- duces the hazards of industry and lowers workmen's compensation cost.
 In 1922 the amount paid out in ac- cident claims tota1ed $2,278,o23. This is saving of $3o7,65g. .6I, or I3H per cent, over 1920.
 "In addition to the direct saving of $3o7,654.6I," says the bulletin, "the industries and worklnen of the state had the benefit of active employment which this achievement in accident prevention work made possible.

FOOTBALL.

East Haven with "Lolly" Leeper as head coach are practicing twice week ly and xpect to have a team in the I35 pound class that will be the equal of any in the vicinity. They will play the Davenports for their opening game on Sept. 3o The Davenports, who last season were known as the Quails, have good reputation and their two visits to East Haven last season resulted in good clean games.
 Mike O'Connor, who handled the Williams A. C. last year, is busy re- constructing his team for the coming season. Apparently dissatisfied with the players that have appeared in the Williams lineup from year to year, he is now out to make up his team of the younger local talent, which seems to be a wise move.
 Mike Healey of American Chain worked on these lines last year and was very successful, and with Fritz Musante cooperating with him this season, they will undoubtedly have one of the best teams in New Eng land.

STEEL MEN SATISFIED.

New York, Sept 15-The local press says Judge Gary has declared his company "is meeting with little or no opposition" from employees be- cause of the eight-hour day.
 A few months ago, Judge Gary was assuring the public that his employees wanted to work I2 hours day and that this was one of the principal req sons why a change could not be made.

, SEES NO NEED FOR FENCES
At Least They Should Not obstruct
View of Landscape, Says Al
fred Hopkins.

Once upon q time when our anceS-
tors spoke Of their "defenses" they
referred to the great walls and battle
ments which protected them against
warlike neighbOrs, but neighbors are
more friendly nowadays, and the "de-
lenses" have dwindled down to mere
fences" Most people owning de-
tached homes like to have either a
fence or a hedge along the boundary
line.
There is not so much to learn from
European countries with respect to
fence design, says Alfred Hopkins,
well-known architect, as there is from
the American colonial period which
was rich in this particular. England
has given some excellent examples Of
the iron fence, but the iron fence has
had no great development here.
The tall solid masonry walls Of the
continental estate are not friendly In
America, nor are they desirable here,
Mr.. Hopkins points out, because we
have endless land and comparatively
scattered population. The impulse
for privacy on the part of the well-to-
do is as insistent as ever, but as
general principle, says Mr.. Hopkins,
a fence which is not absolutely neces-
sary should be done away with, or at
least it should not obstruct view OF
the landscape.

Marl4 in Clean Walks.

No day is too good for serious con-
sideration of the obligation resting on
conscientious citizens to keep their
sidewalks as clean as possible in the
months of snow, Ice and slush. Men
and women may be as badly hurt by
falling on their way to or from church
as they can be In their business er-
rands Of the working week, and 1t is
Just as irritating to wallow through
drifts Of melting ice and half-frozen
water on Sunday as any other day.
There is real merit in well-kept side
walks. They are a comfort to many
thousands Of pedestrians and credit
to householders and all others who
have to do the work or get 1t done.
In the large sense, walks clear OF
snow and ice contribute to the stand
ing of the city which is able to show
such proof of good citizenship, and
the more difficult weather conditions
make this service to the public the
higher praise it deserves.

But, while the new Congress may be
short on constructive legislation, just
because the wheels will not be able

Not many years, ago it used to be the

may be increased criticism OF the
legislative branch of the government
by the people generally. The impo

in which the people are keenly inter,
