FORTY.TWO AT BAT
Municipal League Unesrthed By Pat.
 riot Sports Writer

The Patriots sports reporter un- covered a little inside stuff at the drag end of last week. He unearthed a Municipal League whose efforts and contests are dedicated to a semi-sham- rock game called Forty Two" It is called the Municipal League because the contests are staged in the munich pal building and because most of the players are municipal employees.
 How often the league puts on it's battles is a detail that has not as yet been uncovered. The public that views the sport consists of a now and then loafer in the little room between the cell room and the wash room and the cellar This room Is occupied by the captain of police as his private sane tum when none of his force are pres ent, for they also use the room as a locker room. The court followers. or part of them, use it as a waiting room for court to convene.
 But to return Co the Forty two ague and the contest staged last week Four games were played. Of which Bill and Bill won the first. sec ond. third. fourth and fifth. and George and Gene lost the first. second. third. fourth and fifth As there was no sixth game it Is an easy matter to figure out that it was a shut ont for Bill and Bill. with George and Gene the shutoatees.
 The scores for the five games were as follows. the first score of course being Bill and Bill and the second George and Gene. the latter claimant Co the Forty-two championships 42- 70. 42-4: 42-7: ALA; 42-l0.
 \ perusal of the games played will show that C. X C. were never even dangerous except in the first session when they arrived at the forty yard line. or whatever they may call it. the sports editor admittedly not being con- versant with the fine points of the game.
 Challenges to George and Gene will be received by the sporting editor of The Patriot. If any team can beat these second raters, arrangements will be made for session with Bill and Bill.

GROWN, B. c. STAR, AND
 FAMILY ARE FEATURED
MOTHER PARK, SUPERINTENDENT AT cHILDRENS HOME, GRANDMOTHER OF BABY GROWN, POS
 TIMELY REFUSES TO POSE FOR CAMERA
Well Known College Athlete Has Resident Putnam
 Several Years

The Boston Traveller" Tuesday evening ran front page feature story The story carried 6 double column front page picture of Jack Crouin. Mrs Cronin and baby Cronin, with q separate inside picture of the baby. The grandmother. Mother" Park, superintendent of the Children's Home, refused to pose for the camera man
 Mrs. Cronin is a granddaughter of Mrs Park and daughter of John Fallon, formerly a newspaper man in Putnam, now with the American Type Founders Company. and the late Mrs Fallon, who was Miss Elizabeth Park. The story Is of local interest, as the family has resided in Putnam for sew eral years past and IS reproduced be. low:
 IL doesn't seem as though a col lege such as Holy Cross and a dark haired woman with a pleasant smile down in Putnam, Ct, could have much in common. But they have.
 For both the Worcester college and Mrs. John Cronin will be glad when that end-circling back known as Jack Cronin quits playing football for Bos- ton College.
 One Who Isn't Fan
 And there is one other individual who will be quite as glad as Mrs Gro- min when Jack gets his degree from Boston College Not that this other individual knows much about football. She doesn't She doesn't like 1t much us yet. But she does love her Daddy and football keeps Daddy iH college over the week-ends.
 Now take last Saturday. for exam pie. Jack Cronin was devoting his en- tire time and attention to smearing Holy Cross plays. smashing off Holy Cross ends and m other ways making the Braves Field gridiron a glorious spot for the thousands of E. (. root CTS.
 While he was doing all that. there were some 5000 or 10000 wild-eyef rooters bursting their lungs trying t5 tell him how good he was. But there wasn't one of those royal rooters who got as much kick out of Jacks playing as did this same smiling woman and that tWo=year-old youngster down n Putnam
 Paul Wait was announcing that game over che f8dio There k re. ceiving set down in Che Putnam home of the Croniu family. Mrs. Cronin was just as tired as her husband when that game was over. for she lived ev- cry play of it.
 A Happy Family
 She lives with her grandmother- for whom she and for that matter the baby. too. k named One k Ruth Elizabeth and the other is Ruth Eliza beth The baby is Betty, for short Mr. Gronin's mother Is dead
 Mrs Addie Elizabeth Park is the baby's great grandmother II was im- possible to get Mrs Park to hold the baby in front of the camera. The baby was willing enough, but Mrs Park wasn't She is the matron of the Windham County Home for Child ren
 When Jack is graduated from Bos- ton College. as he will be in 1927, there is ant to be one long argument down in Putnam for if he should at. tempt to take his wife or baby away from Mrs. Park it just couldn't be done, that's all there Is Co that
 However. the radio set is in one room. and Mrs Park was busy in an

other room last Saturday. Mrs. Gro min sat with ears straining to hear Paul Waitt relate each play When. ever the announcement came that Gro. min eircied the Holy Cross end and gained upmty-steeu yards, Mrs. Gro. min ran from the radio room to Mrs Park, repeated the news m breathless haste and dashed frantically back to the radio room hoping that she had not missed q play.
 And when, in the last part of the game. Holy Cross threatened-well, many Saturdays like that and she would be almost nervous wreck.
 Loves Football
 She loves football. too. She was born in Hiugham and there she met Jack. All through high school she watched Jack play. That was the be- ginning of the romance. She and Jack are 22 years old They will have been married five years in March.
 .I don't know what to say about Jack" she answered the reporter question with a smile Was l exeit- ed when the game last Saturday was being played? l should say l was. kept running to mother she calls Mrs Park motherl after every play and telling her all about it.
 Betty didn't pay much attention tn it' Betty smiled happily at her mother. That baby is pink-cheeked, bobbed haired. sparkling-eyed yamp When she same into the house from the automobile in which she and her mother had been riding to elude the Traveller man, her cheeks were as pink as the prettiest pink a florist ever knew.
 She ran at once Go Mrs. Park and said Hat and tried with baby fing- CTS to unite the little bonnet she wore. Ia fact she just named her sweater leggings and even her shoes, one after another, just as a gentle hint to her great-grandmother Co take them of
 Was Jack disappointed because she was a girf?" Mrs. Cronin was asked
 No, he was not. said Mrs cronin. But Jack says he'll make a football player out of her anyhow" The baby slid from her arms and marched out of the room. Marched Is the only way to describe that walk.
 Game Keeps Him Busy
 The conversation returned Co Jack. He gets home week-ends except in the football season. Then of course he stays in Boston That is one reason Mrs. croniu will be glad when Jack quits playing football
 ..Jack is as good-natured as any one could be. she said. Why shouldn't he be- He is always in the finest condition always wrestling, or fouliug around He loves outdoor work and loves football. too. "
 The question came up as to what Mrs Jack thought Jack would do when he is graduated
 '.i think he'ii teach school and coach football team" she answered. 'I don't think he could be happy away from football, all the time.
 He loves the game a great deal and is never happier than when he is in the middle of it Then, too, don't want to leave mother, she add ed indicating Mrs Park, "and Pm teaching now and don't want to quit teaching for a long time yet"

DEATH TOLL IN
WRECK NOW A;
MANY INJURED
Debris Washed on Track
of D. L. e w. Blamed
for Piling Up Four
Cars of Special Train
fBv The Associated Press.)

NEW YORK, N. Y, June 1.-THE
death toll had mounted to AZ today as
a result of the wreck of a Delaware
Lackawanna AMI Western special tour
ist train at Rockport Sag, n j., 60 miles
west Of here. Estimates Of the injured
varies from three dozen to four dozen
and the cases of at least one dozen were
considered serious.
The train carried 1872 German Amer
leans, mostly from Chicago. They were
bound for Hoboken, N. j., to embark on
the liner Republic to visit the father
land from which they had emigrated
years ago. Only 80 sailed on the Re-
public yesterday.
Speeding on a downgrade the seven
cars train hit a stretch of muck and
debris that had been washed over the
cracks by an electrical storm early
yesterday. The heavy engine ploughed
through but the pony tender was thrown
off the track. 1t clutched the frogs
of switch farther on and wrenchei
the engine and four steel cars from the
rails. Three cars piled up on top of the
overturned engine. The steam pipes
burst and sent scalding fog spoqting di-
rectly onto the passengers in the cars.
1t was the breaking of the pipes
that caused the deaths of at least 80
Of the victims. Joseph Snyder, a farm
er, watching the storm from his home
nearby saw the accident, sounded the
alarm by telephone and with his wife
rushed to give aid. Lyman Gulick, an
other farmer, rode half clad in his auto
mobile to Hackettstown, two miles
away, and summoned physicians and
ambulances from there and other towns
When rescuers arrived the steam had
spent itself. The suffering was intense.
One man .jerked roll Of bills from his
pocket and begged Snyder to kill him.
Only four trainmen and few passen-
gers were killed instantly. One woman
was decapitated. The others went
through hours of agony before they
died in hospitals at Easton, Pa, Dover,
n. j., Phillipsburg, Morristown and
Hackettstown.
Mr.. and Mrs. John Pfeiler, an elderly
couple from Holy Cross, Iowa, riding in
front of the first coach, had a remark
able escape with minor bruises Other
survivors told of a slightly scalded
Chicago woman who limped moaning
through the wreckage until she found
he'd wallet. Then she shouted joyously
and helped the rescuers. 1t was a care
free party that was plunged into agony.
On the sides Of the cars had been nailed
large banners, See the Old Country
again. Most Of the tourists were
sleeping when the crash came.
Railroad officials blamed the storm
for the disaster By queer twist of
fate the train had been routed over the
old main line of the road at Delaware
Water Gap, Pa, instead of using the
more travelled cutoff built several
years ago.
