BLUES IN HARD WORKOUT
 FOR TOUGH GAME SUNDAY
Coach Puts Local Squad Through Stiff Drill In Antic- patton of Hard Battle-Meriden Mohicans to Fur nish Opposition - Considered One of Strongest Semi-pro Teams In This Section-LOcals Have Op- portunity of Tieing Up Score In Games Already Won.

Following an extraordinarily stiff practice session last night at Will low Brook park. the New Britain Blues football team is ready for the invasion of the Meriden Mohicans Sunday afternoon. The two football combinations will clash at Memorial field in Willow Brook park at 2:3o o'clock sharp.
 As this is the only gridiron con- test in the works for this city Sum- day, the attendance at the park should be large. The Blues have been travelling along at fast pace and so has the Meriden eleven. Both are evenly matched and the is q toss up.
 The Blue face the opportunity of evening up the score in games won with the Silver City team. In three meetings. the Mohicans have won two and dropped one decision to the local crew. This season.. the Blues. counting on the fine showing of the team in the games played thus far. are optimistic over the chances of their champions to come through with a win.
 The Mohicans carry an impress sive lineup with them. Some of the best-known players in the Silver City are members of the squad this year and the Hardware City outfit will have to travel at top speed if it is to come through with its pre- dicted win.
 The Blues were drilled in all phases of the game last night un- der the direction of Coach Zwick Forward passing was emphasized because of the fact that the Mo- hicans are reported to have a strong line. If the line plays fail. the Blues have . good forward passing game in reserve.
 This will be the second home ap- pearance of the Blues and the packers of the team will be out in full force Sunday.

US. TO SPEND
BIG ROAD FUND
S219,375,0 900 to Be Federal
Share for Work in Next
Three Years.

Two hundred and nineteen million,
three hundred and seventy-flve thou
sand dollars worth of good roads will
be the Federal Governments contribu-
ton to the cause of national progress
during the next three -sars. the Amer
lean Road Builders Association said to-
day. The sum to be allocated to each
State under the Federal aid road appro-
priation was made public by the asso-
citation.
A total of $73,125,00 will be avail
able to the States and Hawaii during
each of the years 1929, 1880, 1881. The
States must spend a minimum of S198,-
049,9e2 on the Federal aid roads dur
ing the three years in order to take
advantage of their Federal appropria-
ton.
THE annual contribution Of the
Federal Government constitutes less
than per cent of the cost of road con-
struction and maintenance each year
In the United States" the American
Road Builders Association declared. "It
is less than five undredths of one
cent for each mile travelled by motor
vehicles during 1928"
The association asserted that good
roads are a national as well as local
asset. and that the Federal Govern
ment should not only make Its periodic
appropriations perennial but should
increase them beyond the present limi-
tations. The nation still has in excess
OF 1000, 900 miles of unimproved roads,
much of which Is in need of improve
ment
The ALLEGATION of Federal funds for
1929, 1880 and 1881 road construction in
the United States and Hawaii, has been
made by the United States Bureau of
Public Roads There may be few
miner corrections in the appointments
for 1880 and 1891 as result of mileage
revisiens. With the exception of IS
States in which more than per cent
of all land is non-taxable, the States
mus: finance at least so per cent of
Federal aid road costs. and In no case
will the Government contribute In ex-
cess of $4,000 per mile.

MARYLAND MAY GET
MINIMUM SPEED RULE
Rate of 20 Miles an Hour to Be-
gin With, but Increase Likely
Would Follow.

Special Dispatch to The star.
BALTIMORE. July 21.-Legislation
providing minimum rate of speed for
motor vehicles on the open road In
Maryland was advocated by John N.
Mackall, chairman of the State Roads
Commission, this week in commenting
on automobile accidents on State high
ways.
While believing the minimum can be
substantially increased after tests,
Mackall said he thought a rate of 20
miles an hour probably would be the
safest to adopt in the beginning. Later,
he added that could be increased to
IS or 80 miles.
The commissioner said he not only
advocates such legislation, but he be-
lieves a step in that direction Is in
evitable.
Besides expediting traffic, Maokall
said he thought minimum rate of
speed would eliminate many accidents
which indirectly are the result of ''pok-
ey' driving.
On heavy traffic days such as Sum-
day, he explained. slow driving results
in the blocking and iamming of scores
Of machines and. consequently, in dan
gerous "jockeying" to get ahead.
Maekall also urged greater enforce
ment and observance of such simple
but effective regulations" as turning
left from the left lane of traffic and
to the right from the right lane. He
also was just as vehement in condemn
ing the passing of cars on hills, at in
.erSections and on curves.

mony of Color.

The modern automobile rolls along
the streets and highways of the world,
without effort, all but noiselessly, among
its hundreds of thousands Of brothers at
speed undreamed of only a few short
years ago. according to AlvaE Macauley,
one of the automotive cnieftains. 1t
has to be thing of beauty. 1t has to
have perfect symmetry of design and
harmony Of color and appointments. 1t
has to operate as perfectly when the
thermometer registers below the zero
mark as when the scorching sun oiazes
down upon 1t on the hottest OF days In
the desert.
Rain and sunshine, mud, cobblestones
and smooth asphalt must the modern
automobile meet without falterin2.
Where its progenitors of only quarter
of a century ago were thought to BEHAVE

Is the automobile destined to change
the architecture Of our American cities?
Already, according to Fl. H. Brooks,
general sales director In the automotive
industry. there are indications of the
radical and amazing changes eventually
to be brought about by the gasoline
propelled vehicle.
"Chicago's anti-parking experiment,
neceSsitated by the congestion OF the
Loop" says Mr. Brooks. has placed the
downtown merchants of that city face
to face with no inconsiderable prob
lem. Business has fallen off because OF
parking restrictions and retail trade
has reached out into the outlying
neighborhoods.
THE greatest obstacle to the enforce
ment of anti-parking laws in this and
other cities is the opposition of the
merchants. who maintain that their
business will be ruined unless motorists
can have access to their establishments.
II the motorist cannot park his car
while shopping, he will naturally pre-
fer to spend his money at shops more
conveniently located Should TINS
tendency remain unchecked the retail
districts of our cities instead of being
concentrated. will spread out over
vast territory The huge department
stores will yield gradually to small spe-
cialty shops and develop more and more
into wholesale establishments,
1.-THE automobile already has done
much to spread out our cities, Every
metropolis today is made up of many
small communities. Suburban life has
become more general and country
homes, once accessible only by rail, are
easily reached by motor car"
Mr. Brooks is inclined to believe,
however, that the suburban expansion
has about reached its limits, The motor
car, he points out, still has restricted
cruising radius and until the airplane
comes into more general use our cities
will remain more or less as they are.
Double decker streets says MIR.
Brooks, streets such as Wacker drive,
Chicago, will be the next radical change
In city architecture. The lower levels
will be devoted to heavy trafic, while
retail commerce will be elevated to an
upper level
But this is only beginning of what
We shall eventually see. In Boston, a
department store rising 20 odd stories
into the air and occupying an entire
block. Is being constructed to provide
garage space for 5000 cars in the base
ment
The proprietors. of course, will as
sumo loss of many Of the cars parked
on their premises as the owners OF these
vehicles may do their shopping else
where, and until every large building
provides such garage space, somebody
will have to make a sacrifice.
