(H. S. Correspondent

Eight games are continued on the
schedule issued by Acting Manager
Jack jacobson for the forthcoming
grid Last year five games
were played and the addition Of
three more to this years list shows
that the famed autumnal sport is
well on its way to first ranking
among the four major scholastic
sports here.
-Four Of the eight games are with
county mines. MetucAen, New Bruins
wick, South River and South Am
boy are the elevens to appear on
the schedule. Another special feat
ture of the schedule also indicative
OF the fact that this city is progress
Ing in scholastic circles. is the game
with Battin High School of Eliza
beth. The Betsytown eleven is one
or the highest ranking teams in the
state and every year is one Of the
chlef contenders for the state title.
Railway, conqueror OF Amboy 4O-7
last season, is again on the list while
North Plainfeld, another Crimson e,
white eonqueror will again be faced.
A disappointing feature of the
schedule is that all games will be
played away from home. This Is the
second year since the resumption of
the grid game that local fans will

that they could not play as before
and as a result lost by one run in a
ten inning contest. The Keasbey
Jrs., have shown poor craftsmanship
all this season on thsir OWL diamond,
as every team having played there
will admit. One team known as the
Woodbridge, Jrs. did not receive
their fare home as promised. This
goes to show that few teams are
satisfied with treatment on the Keas-
hey diamond. The Orioles do not
mind il a game is lost so long as it
is lost by fair playing.
"The Orioles have one more game
to play with the Keasbey Jrs., the
final contest of a three game series,
each team having won n to date.
This game will be played in Perth
Amboy on a neutral diamond.
Yours for sportsmanship,
Anthony Virgillo.

Hightstown has four victories and
one setback, in the second half
league games played to date. Fol
lowers Of the Three M league are of
the opinion that fHightstown or Am
boy, will cop second half honors.
Bash won the first half honors, and
Freehold most likely will cop hon
ors in the Monmouth county circuit.
Tottenville Sunday
The first game of the annual Tot
tenville-Amboy series is scheduled
for the local field this coming Sun
day afternoon. 1t has been rumor-
ed that Messrs. Romer and Enrich
of the Aquehonga nine. have obtain
ed the services of the Allentown, Pa.
twirleT, who defeated the New York
Yankees in an exhibition game at All
lentown last week. Knesel, former
ly of the Aquehongas, did the catch
ing for the Allentown team in the
exhibition tilt.
Wilson, of Staten Island, made a
creditable impression upon the fans
by his showing against the Dublin
Glee Club nine last Sunday. It is
probable that he will work against
the Hightstown nine here Thursday
night, and also against the Aquehon-
gas on Sunday.

The Hightstown contest was or
igina1ly scheduled for the local dia<
mond last Saturday, but instead was
slated for the Peddie school diamond
at Hightstown. A heavy downpour of
rain just after the umpire
ed the batteries, caused the post
ponement of the contest. The Bash
Yardville contest was also postpon-
ed, while the Barber-Freehold teams
were in the fourth inning of their
game, when the weather man inter-
fered. The score in the latter tilt
was IL. at the time the contest
was called.
Jimmy Dooley, pitcher, and the
Morgan brothers, infielders, all of

STAR LOCAL OUTFIELDER

The Fords representative baseball
team, one of the leading senior
teams in this section this season, will

LUNCH IN SUMMER
 FOR BUSINESS GIRL

Now be sure and eat a hearty lunch, dear"- -admonished a mother a z Her daughter departed for business. and when the door closed she ex. cialmed, T declare, 1t is simply awful what s>aat girl eats at noon. Just sandwich and glass of milk. not enough to keep bird alivem
 If this mt ther put in a days work m an office or business on a warm day she would understand that inc sandwich and milk is a far better dlet for her daughter than dish of meat and vegetables or a course din- ner.
 No girl wants to clog her. brain and use her energy in digestion rather than her work. Even in mid winter heavy luncheon will do that. and the girl who indulges nj a,dinner at noon time cannot give her best services tc her employer in the aft ernoon. Especially is this true dur Ing the warm weahtre.
 It Is fallacious idea that hot meal Is necessary at noontme. Heat producing foods should be avoided at the monday meal by everyone on hot days, but especially by the busi- ness girl.
 If you do hard manual labor 1t may be necessary tt eat energy giv- Ing foods twice a day and nourish- ing foods twice dayshrdlupupu ing foods are also essential. but In the summertime all these require. ments should be overbalanced by non-heating foods at noontime
 If the necessity of meat has be- come an obsession, at least make it e Id meat which is admirably fur nished by the sandwich, but exclude pork and veal from the summer diet. Salads are the cooling diet par ex- cellence and these are now served in restaurants as sandwiches. An egg salad, meat or vegetable salad are good. A tomato and cucumber sand wieh is especially cooling. If the necessity for something hot is felt, why not let it go at a vegetable din- ner, such as Is now so deliciCusly served in restaurants?
 Pies, rich cake and pastry of all kinds are too great strain on the digestive organs during hot weather. Eat simple desserts such as plain custards, melons or fruit. A fruit salad is satisfying as a dessert.

GIVING BEDS THE ONCE OVEl

aN NH
 Nothing else suffers quite so mucH from having been shut up all summer .in closed house as do the family 'oeds. And nothing else is so impor- tant to the comfort and well being of the returning members Of the family as recuperative sleep upon sweet smelling, wholesome resilient mattress. A prolonged period of time spent in airless rooms, with aust slowly accommodating and the mustl- ness of damp days gathering in its ''innards" will make any bed feel and smell like cellar.
 So the first thing to do after open ing up the cobwebby house door and throwing open the windows is to drag all the mattresses in the house out into the sunshine and leave them there until bedtime. Hang them over strong lines or over a fence, turning them often so that the sun may pen citrate into every corner of them. It is a good plan to beat them with a little wicker rug beaterf, to get all the dust out of the covering.
 This is a good time to give the beds the once over for insects of every kind One housewife 1 know of who never had bedbug in one of her beds in her life, was seriously bitten by a spider that had made its home in her mattress during her absence in the country. She had not even looked for any kind of insects. With a whisk broom, clean out every one of the tufs which hold the mattress in bounds In fact, the whole mattress would be better for brisk brushing with stiff whisk.
 If possible, give the beds a full day in the open sunshine before mak ing them up for the family to sleep in. The sun is the greatest of puri- fiers, and any malodors, musty damp ness or "close" smell will be removed after a few hours summing.

 And if I remember right, there was a tree near here from which soda water camer Raggedy Ann added. Tt belonged to Betsy Bon net String, but she gave it to all the folk who lived in the deep, deep woods"

SOME RICE DESERTS
Rice Float

Rice Float
 This is a little different from the ordinary rice pudding and will be relished as change. Boil rice in milk and when done add sugar to taste. Stir in the beaten yolks of two eggs and bake in the usual way un- til the eggs thicken. When cool cover top with meripgue made of the egg whites and brown light in oven
 Rice Salad
 Use equal quantities of cold boiled .rice that is thoroughly dry and celery cut into small pieces Mix with a mayonnaise dressing. Line the salad bowl with lettuce leaves, pour in the salad and cover with mSyonnaise and capers.
 Rice With Fruit Sauce
 Plain boiled rice makes a good simple dessert and is greatly im- proved by the addition of a fruit sauce. Allow from two to three quarts of water to one cupful of rice and boil hard and constantly. As socn as kernels of rice are tender 6rain through a colander. Pour a little cold water through the rice then put it in oven for few min utes to dry. Cream one-half cupful butter, gradually add one crp pow dered sugar, beating constantly. Cut aWberries or raSpberrieS in half or cut peaches in small pieces and fold them into the creamed mixture. Serve with the rice.
 Rice Ring
 Another simple way of serving rice is to boil it, then press it into a ring mold. previously rinsed in cold water When cold unmold it and fill the center cavity with rasp- berries. entrants or any preferred fruit. Cover top with cream or fruit juice obtained by crushing the fruit
