Volunteer Companies Send Dele

Fire Association.
~Standardize Equipment

Delegates from the several yolun-

Somers Point, Mays Landing, Ham
monitor and Egg Harbor met on We'd
nesday night, at the latter place, to
form an association TO be known az
the Atlantic County Firemen's Associ-
alton. The purpose of this organiza-
ton is to take up various matters of
interest to fire companies and the
several municipalities for the general
improvement of fire service and to
study matters of fire prevention.
One of the principal objects of the
new association will be to make every
fire company in the County adopt stan.
dard equipment in their bumpers, SO
that in case of a call for assistance
at any time the companies called will
be able to go into service Immediately
and work effectively. This is a most
important subject, as at present com.
panies from one town cannot render
effective fire service in another town
because of the difference in the equip
ment used.
The association will adopt a set OF
bylaws for it's government, and will
hold frequent meetings. The nexi
meeting is to be held in Pleasantville
at a date to be named by the BoarC
of Directors. DR.. w. J. Hudson, CHIEF
of the local Fire Department, was cho.
sen as Secretary of the association
and City Clerk Nehemiah Andrews

company, is n of the five Directors

Dor firemen with a fine sour krauf

comfortable lead throughout the en-
tire game, therefore a number of sub
stitutions were made in the second
half, to give some of the new players
a chance to display their playing abil-
ity. Before the end of the first half,
OFT, regular center, was banished from
the game via the personal foul route.
Before leaving the game, however,
OFT, who is playing his first year on
the Varsity team, netted four pretty
field goals. The Ott-Painter-Russo-
Clark-Thompson combination, with
Henry, first substitute guard, has
shown the most form so far this sea
son, and other members of the squad
are finding it difficult to break into
the lineup.
