Several girls leagues start their schedules next week. They have been practicing for the past few weeks ironing out the kinks which set in in summer and they are get ting used to the new pins.
 The North < Judd, Fafnir and Stanley Rule and Level girls teams are already organized.
 The Industrial Basketball league ts undecided where it will play dur ing the coming season. Some of tho, members of the board of directors are in favor of the Stanley Arena. others are all for the Tabs while still others want to return to the Y. M C. A. This matter will probably be decided before the season starts.
 We were down in Meriden yester- day visiting at the Meriden New De- parture plant and there we learned that Jack Curry is forming one of the most formidable basketball teams to represent the concern in years. Cohen, last year with the Atlas of New Haven. is the pivot around which the team is to be built and he is bringing a couple of for wards from New York Jerry Con- way will jump center again this year for the Meriden team.
 News like this brings home an ominous note to Manager Clarence 1anpher. New Britain will certain ly have to step to cop the state championship in the season Of ls2J-2s.

ALASKA OR BUST'' IS MOTTO OF CINCINNATI BOY, NOW
 HEADED FOR FAIRBANKS

Cincinnati Times-Star, June 2O;)
 Charles Herbert, 18, recent With row High School graduate, hasa long road ahead of him.
 Clad in khaki, prepared for any kind of weather he encounters, carry ing 25-pound pack, young Herbert headed Wednesday morning for Fair banks, Alaska, taking off" at 5:3O a. m.
 From Cincinnati to St. Louis, then to Salt Lake City, then to Seattle, is the itinerary this youthful cross country adventurer has set for him. self. He plans to traverse the miles between here and Seattle by hitch hiking" which is road jargon for picking up rides from motorists.
 From Seattle to Fairbanks, Alaska, by boat-and then five years of min ing engineering at the Mining Col lege there. For a number of years Herbert has been interested in the prospect of entering .mininy engineer ing and no wis on the actual road to find out all about it.
 Big game hunting is another at traction that Alaska holds, and after he is established in Fairbanks, Her bert will get a gun, and, in the hunt ing seasson, fare forth for big game. In the afternoons and evenings, after study hours, he plans to work at odd jobs in Fairbanks, thus financing his course.
 Herbert is the son of Mir. and Mrs. J. c. Herbert, ,315s Linwosd avenue. He was the leading man in the With row Dramatic Clubs annual produc- tion, Clarence" during the last school year, and stood high in academic work.

ssWHY IS FTP"

The Citizen-Patriot of Jackson, Mich., asks question a great many people all over the land ask:
 "Why is it that a man who is courteous and considerate of others in his home or when he is walking seems to lose his manners when he gets behind a steering wheel, and when he crosses intersecting streets does not slow down the speed of his car, but blows a blast calculated to make the luekless pedestrian jump for safety9
 "The matter has been studied. Some authorities say that all civilization is but thin veneer, that the veneer is more durable in the home than in the motor car, and that the speed with which the motorist thinks he must move accounts for the difference. It is also pointed out that driving a eemotor car seems to change the dis

THE PASS A LAW" MANIA.

THE PASS A LAW" MANIA.
 Noting that New Jersey has wiped out several hundred archaic or use less laws, the Minneapolis Journal says:
 "This puts, the books in fine condi- ton. Whether they will stay that way remains to be seen. Probably they will not. Unfortunately, the same kind of legislating that origin ally clutterad the hooks up with hma- dreds of needless enactments will im time pile up a new load of excess statutory baggage.
 "Indeed, the piling up is on the way. There was recently introduced in the New Jersey legislature a bill to prohibit smoking in any barn or shed in which cattle are kept.
 "This is a typical example of the American tendency to pass law about it. The purpose of the bill-to lessen the possibility of fires in which cattle perish-is praiseworthy. But why pass alaw about it? If the barn owner wishes to protect his cat tie, he can make and enforce his own rules against smoking in the place. But if he is not willing to make and enforce such a rule, he, his employees and his visitors may smoke with inn punity, law or no law, for the State cannot maintain a small army of spies to go around .peeking into his barns and sheds.
 "The New Jersey bill is typical of thousands of bills passed by State legislatures all over the country"
