Penns Grove Plays Close Game

The league game was a good clean
game and was thoroly enjoyed by the
few spectators who were in time for
it, as the reliminary games start at
seven thirty. Penns Grove began the
scoring by a foul and field goal by
Franklin and "Hank" Straughn, re-
spectively, but the ceEnginers
got to working together in a way that
they kept up till the end of the game.
So, except for these few minutes they
led the whole time and finished the
first half by II to II. The Penns
Grove five, which is yet inexperienced
in playing together pulled up and out
played the opponents in the second
half by one point. The score for that
half was IL to IL.
1t was great work by Lackey that
won the game for he not only led in
the scoring but made three field goals
that were long distance bulls-eye shot
Then, "Morry" Paterson and George
Dolbow were right with him for they
made the rest of the S. & E. field
goals. Borman and Anderson, botf
did good floor passing and threw the
ball to the others many time fol-
goal to be thrown.
The Penns Grove men did very good
foul throwing for both Brooks (Chas.
Jr.) and Bill Jones made more thar

Basket Ball
Continued from page 1

the teams were evenly matched and
both played sterling basket ball but
it proved to be such a finely played
game that a thoroly experienced ref
cree would have been required to keep
it so. So, in the second half the All
Stars lost their pep and sort of gave
up the desire to play but the Pavonia
five beat them at this and won de-
cidedly by 81 to ID.
The visitors were the Pavonia P. R.
R. shop team, near Camden, and they
played well, keeping up good team
spirit thruout. Sheets and Quicksill
proved stars at shooting.
Breidenbach equalled the best man
in the game and was consistently in
most of the plays. He was the only
one to score for the home team in the
second half. He was assisted ir
steady playing by Teahan on the
offensive and by w. Smith on the
defense

DU POINT EASY FOR ALI STARS

Friday evenings game at the Y. NJ.
c. A. proved to be the best when the
Service-Fngineers defeated Penns
Grove ina good close league game as
q preliminary to the All Star match
With the DUPONT team, of Wilming-
ton. The first game mad a % to %
final score while the one which fol
lowed finished with the All Stsrs
ahead by So to Is.
The All Star game began well, as
far as going close is concerned, for
the first five minutes neither scored
altho they tried many times. Then,
after every one else had some tries,
Warren Smith, who was the back de
fense, took shot and made the first
count This started more than was
expected for the home team simply
threw one after another and the visit
ing team of young boys proved inca
pable opponents. The first half ended
at Sc to 2. Then in the second half
the All Stars got tired throwing SO
many that they let the visitors have
turn. Once Breidenbach deliverately
passed the ball to Regan to see if he
could score. By the way, "Breidv"
did the most scoring by his nire field
goals. All the others did good share
at it, as Duke who gave "Breidy" re-
lief for the last few minutes of the
gave put one thru.

PUNCH BOARDS ILLEGAL

Since Mayor Walker and xte Mar
shals have started crusade TO have
the laws observed, some have asked
whether Punch Boards" are illegal.
Most people know it is species of
chance and gambling like the slot ma
chimes.
Some who had slot machines paid
fines and one served time on the
county roads.
Some of the punch board profiteers
may be called on to help the public
treasury and help improve roads.
Instead of being confined in open
stores on Sunday to get few pennies
from the Sunday loafers, the profteers
could have their health improved by a
vacation on the roads.

that he saw a car hit Catherine, that
the car stopped, some of the Occur

That seems to be the link which was

1t may seem strange that Cooper

he has often done it within the past

seven o'clock, while Mr.. Justice sald

COKE WORKER GOES
 ID WORK IN PLANE
SedanS Take Miners to Their
 Daily Tasks

Uniontown, Pa, July 14.-That the | luxuries of peace in the Fayette coun- ty coke region far outshadow war
 prosperity, was indicated today when
 Edmund Henriques, a coke worker. New York with a Sopwith airplane
 which he will use to carry him to and from his daily toil."
 For several years the flivver, which had been domesticated among the
 mining towns of the Connellsville re-
 zion, has been passe and high pow cred sedan cars have travelled the highways bearing miners from their homes to the coal pits and back again when the days toll was ended.
 Henriques startled the "aristocrats
 of the coke region" when he returned
 from New York with his Sopwith
 "camel," British built airplane with which he is familiar through five years service in the Royal Air Forces He made the flight from New York in his new machine in four and half hours and will use 1t during the sum- mer to attend Sunday baseball games in Chicago and Cleveland.
 His home is several miles from the coke ovens at Gates, where he Is em- ployed, and he has found it annoy ing to be forced to arise so early in the morning to go to work. Being 3 high class employe with good job and not wishing to lose his place from lateness, he concluded that the safest and fastest method of transpor> tation, the airplane, would just about make his lot a happy one. Acting on this conclusion, he "got himself one,"i according to his way of putting it.
 Henriques has been the owner for some time of high powered motor car, but tire troubles and other me- chanical accidents exhausted his pa- tience. His Sopwith will take him | anywhere he wants to go in few hours and he has no fear of being | late at the coke plant in the future. |
 In 1920 Henriques piloted an air. plane from New York to Nome, Alaska.

CLERGYMEN SUPPORTING
 U. s. SENATOR COUZENS
Write to Michigan Senator Endorsine His Stand in Defense of 5 Per

Detroit, July Reinforcement b, clergymen of the declaration of Sen
 ator James Couzens in favor of al-
 lowing the manufacture and sale ot
 non-intoxicating beer of not more than
 per cent alcoholic content is ex- pressed i'll letters received by the senator from ministers of different de- nominations.
 The Rev. c. Malcolm Smith, rector of Trinity Episcopal church, Haver- Ill, Mass. thus expresses his view of Mir. Couzens' position.
 T write to assure you that I air, only one of large number of clergy men who are in cordial agreement with you on this iniquitous Volstead act. As a pastor, I know by experi- ence 1t has done much more harm than good. I congratulate you on your frankness and courage in speak ing out the truth"
 The Rev. L. List, pastor of Imman- uel Evangelical Lutheran church, Se- bewaing, Mich, says:
 Permit me to express to you my oOoOiulc dppTONdl or your fearless stand in regard to the question of pro- hibition. 1 voted for it myself at that time because we were told we would thereby put the saloon out of busi- ness and politics and that the personal liberty of the individual would not be curtaiied in any respect. Had I fore seen the awful mess into which pro- hibition has gotten us, I would have thought a hundred times before vot- ing in its favor I am very glad that you are not letting the paid agita- tors of the anti-saloon league bluff you with their threats of retiring you at the next election. We are with you for law and order and common horse sense."
 The Rev. V. F. Ducat. pastor of St. l Mary's Catholic church. Niles. Mich, has written the following to Mir. cou- zens:
 T most heartily congratulate you on your stand taken on the volstead | act. It is a pleasure to know that | we have a man in the United States senate who represents the wishes of .he people" M
