COLD STORAGE
ANTIQUATED BY
new INVENTION
Latest Preserving Process
Expected to Reduce
Food Prices.

BU Times SDcci0t
NEW YORK, Feb. 2O.-A new
process of food preservation which
is expected to revolutionize the
marketing and consumption OF
foodstufIs. will constitute the most
important scientific marvel Of 1880,
according to The American Maya
zine.
The new process. it is stated, viii
eliminate cold storage as it is now
understood, and will make possible
the year-around marketing Of
perishable fruits, vegetables, fish and
other foods at midseaSOn prices,
with all their original taste and tex
ture.
It will reduce shipping costs from
100 TO 300 per cent and viii lower
retail prices correspondingly, the
article declares. Present methods of
home refrigeration will be sufficient
to make the fullest use Of foods thus
prepared.
Formula Simple
The new system, while being a
high scientific development, is based
upon a simple formula that long
has been known, the relation Of the
size of ice crystals to the rapidity
with which they are frozen. The
ordinary cold storage process, says
the author, freezes large crystals at
a slow rate and they destroy the
walls of the cells in meat or fish
that IS being preserved, with the
result that the substance in the cells
which gives meats its flavor and
freshness, is drawn out.
BY accomplishing the rapid freez-
ing of food inside and outside al
most simultaneously small crystals
are formed and the original state
is preserved for an indefinite period.
Thus, the most ordinary care per-
mits the merchandising of perish
able foods much in the same man
ner as dry foods.
Waste Removed
All foods thus treated will be
frozen in cartons or containers and
all waste parts will be removed at
the time of packing. Among other
novelties expected of the system, is
that oysters will be available all the
year, whether in an "R" month or
not.
The idea upon which the new sys-
tenn is founded was developed by
Clarence Birdseye of Gloucester,
Mass, while fishing through the ice
in Labrador. The fish he caught
froze Immediately after being drawn
from the water. but revived upon
being placed in sea water in his
cabin. From this" Birdseye de-
clared, Il learned that ice is the
closest intermediate stage between
life and death"
Believing that he had discovered /
the secret of an important industry
BirdSeye experimental for five years
with methods of freezing sea foods, !
but his company failed. He re-
organized it and started work again |
and within a short time one Of the |
biggest food concerns in the United /
States bought his interests outright /
Tor S22000,0OO. It is this national /.
concern that Will place the new
products on the market within a
short time.

JOHNSTON READY
 ID DEFEND TITLE
Amateur Champion Wishes
 Bobby Jo1eS Success

Philadelphia. Sept, 19 LP,-Harrl- son R. Jimmy" Johnston is ready to battle to the last hole in defense of his United States amateur golf championship in the tournament at the Merton Cricket club next week. But he said he could not help but think it would be a glorious per formance for Bobby Jones if Jones should put over the grand slam in golf by winning the amateur title.
 The young St. Paul star showed in his first practice round over the championship course yesterday that he is prepared to give any of the big field plenty of opposition. Play ing in a foursome with Richard A. Jones, of New York, as his partner, Johnston went out in 3S and return ed in 33 for q card of Il, only one over par figures.
 This was two strokes better than Jones has done in either of his two practice rounds. The Atlanta bar rister, was not shooting so we'll yes- terday, taking 40-3S-7S. On We'd nesday he shot a 73.
 Johnston believes that a score of 142 will be strong bid for medalist honors and that 156 probably will be the highest score to make the 32nd place in the qualifying round.
 T am going to try my hardest to duplicate my victory for the na- tional amateur championship" John- ston said today, "but despite the fact that I shall give every bit of my skill and strength in an effort to retain the title. I cant help but think that it would be a glorious per formance for Bobby Jones if he should put over the grand slam in golf by winning the title at Merion."
 Other law scores in yesterdays practice were George Won Elm, for mer national champion and Francis Brown, Honolulu, Il; Arthur Sweet, 73; Johnny Lehman, "A; Don Car rick. "A; Chick Evans, George Voigt Charles Foley, Fay Coleman, Dr. o. r. Willing and Fred Brand, 75.
 Most of the ITO entrants are here and the others were expected today or tomorrow.

MOVIE OF GAME
Talkies Have Finally Caught Up With Baseball With Recording of Contest Yesterday.

Chicago, Sept 19 R-The movie- talkies have finally caught up with the Philadelphia Athletics and re- corded in celluloid and sound the game by which the Mackmen clinched the 1880 American League pennant.
 The poviemen began photograph ing ball gapes two days ago so they would have one showing how the pennant was won, but the Athletics waited until yesterday before final- lg making good. The moviemen. therefore, have a complete record Of two previous games which, as far as they are concerned, are of nc commercial value.
 The photographic gramophonic record of yesterdays victory of the Athletics over the Chicago White SoX is said to be the first complete picture of a major league baseball game ever to be released to the cinema trade.

AMATEUR TOURNEY
 10 START MONDAY
Bobby Jones to Try to Continue
 His Victorious March
BY JIGGER

The 34th amateur golf champion ship of the United States will be played over the east course of the Merton Cricket club, Admore, Penn, Sept. 22 to 29. The entire field will play IS holes medal play next Mon day, and another IS holes Tuesday The 32 having the lowest scores win qualify for match play.
 The draw will be seeded. On Wednesday morning and afternoon, IS hole matches will be played. Thursday, Friday and Saturday. 36 hole matches will be the order of the program.
 All who qualified for the event during the past three years are en- titled to enter and any amateur with a handicap of three or less was per mitted to send in his entry prior to Aug. 26.
 The club house is located on Ad- more Ave. about ten miles west of the Broad street station in Philadel- phia. It can be reached by the Pennsylvania railroad whose Ard more or Haverford station is about mile from the course.
 Here Bobby Jones will endeavor to continue his victorious march which has already carried him to peaks of golfing glory higher than any other ancient or modern wield- CT of the mashie has ever reached. , Stopped by Johnny Goodman last September at Pebble Beach when we'll on his. way to a record of ma jor wins in golf titles that had never been equalled, the mighty Jones started over again this spring with the open and amateur champion ships of Great Britain in his beg on his return.
 Then he took the U. S. Open in decisive style. If he wins the anna l teur title next week he will estab- fish a record that even he probably will never duplicate and it is almost impossible to imagine any other golfer reaching near this record in the distant years to come. If his skill holds out one more week and the breaks do not go against him, Bobby can retire to his beloved Eastlake course and his law practice in Atlanta, a young man un- der 30 who has no more golfins worlds to conquer. Well on his way toward becoming a successful cor poratlon lawyer, he may not enter major competitions after he finishes up at Merion. Even if he does not win the amateur title this season, he can still retire as the king of golf CTS and the champion of cham- pions after most glorious career on fairways of the ancient and royal game.

Whether youth or age is supreme on the baseball field will be decided Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock at Willow Brook park when two all- star combinations of players from the northwestern section of the city clash in what may be the first game of a series between the two.
 It will be a case of experience against agility when the two com- binations face each other. The old time squad will be made up of play CTS who have seen many a baseball campaign roll by while the young sters will be composed of those per- formers who are the coming shin- ing lights of the city No doubt the old timers will be eager to show the youngsters just how the game should be played but, like all flaming youth, the youngsters are determin- ed to show their elders a trick or two at the national pastime.
 The veteran nine will be formed from among the following, St, "Starhead" and Stub" BudnNk, Bucher, Kopec, Mania, Jasper, Kredar, Havlick, "Fy" Gaida, Jack Lipetz, Jaglowski, Ferguson and a few others.

MARIAN BENNETT
 OUT OF TOURNEY
Eliminated From Canadian Play
 by Defending Champion
Especial to the Herald)


 Montreal. Sept. 19-After a shaky start, Miss Marian Bennett of New Britain, Conn, rallied in her match with Miss Hicks, defending cham pion, and carried her to the 18th hole before losing 3-2, in the Cana dian womens open golf champion ship quarter finals here yesterday.
 Miss Bennett's play surprised the experts as well as the gallery who had expected that Miss Hicks would breeze through the match an easy winner. The New Britain girl. whose play this spring in the women's matches in England drew. much favorable comment from the Brit ish sports writers, matched her op- ponent shot for shot over much of the route. Her recoveries from traps kept her in the running to the end of the match.
 Surviving in the semi-finals are three Americans, .Maureeh Orcutt, Helen Hicks and Mrs. Harlan Hig- bic and one Canadian, Ada Mac Kenzie of Toronto. Miss Orcutt will meet Mrs Higbie andeMiss Hicks will play Miss Mackenzie in the semi tianlS.
 Helen Hicks took the lead in her match with Marian Bennett and was two up at the fourth hole although she took a six on the first hole Miss Bennett cut her opponents lead to one by scoring a birdie four on the long fifth, and by halving the next four holes was only one down, at the turn.
 Coming home Miss Hicks won the 10th and 12th holes to go three up. Miss Bennett took the next 1.-two holes by expert work with her put ter, sinking a 30 footer on the 14th. The champion took the next two holes and the match was over.

Games to play-St. Louis 9, Brook lyn ', Chicago s. New York s.
 Where Andy High had shone be- fore, Burleigh Grimes and Jim Bot tomley shared the Cardinal hero roles yesterday. Grimes spitball rendered most of Brooklyn's hitting ineffective and Bottomley's fourth inning homer helped the Cards make the most of their five hits off Phelps and Thurston. Fred Fitzsimmons of the Giants did the major part of the work in holding the Cubs in third place by allowing them only six scat tered hits while the Giants walloped Bush and Nelson for Il blows.
 The clinching of the American league pennant by the Athletics was attended by comparatively little ex- citement.. Since their great spurt early in August when they took a ten game lead, it had been almost a certainty that the Athletics finally would win, despite the strenuous and futile efforts of the Senators. The end came in an unimpressive fashion in an up and down scoring match with two five run rallies and 20 hit at tack to produce a Philadelphia vic tory. Cleveland gave the As con- siderable aid as the Indians ioacked Wesley Terrell with some timely hit ting to give him his 18th victory of the season in a close duel with Sad Sam Jones.
 The principal figure again was Connie Mack, Philadelphia's GS year old leader, who reached his eighth championship and his seventh world series since he took charge of the Athletids. Before this season. Mack had led teams to league champion ships in 1902, 1905, 191J, 1911, 1913. lsl4 and 1929. Four time the Ath- letlcs have won the worlds title. in lslo, 1911, 1913 and 1929.
 The lesser teams of the two leagnas,l battling or nothing in par tlcul; provided some startling inno- Vations and three close games to complete the days schedule. Mark hoenis' Detroit z Alortstop made an apearance on the pitchers mound against Boston, and althiugh the llgers lost, 4 to 3, the blame could not be laid at his door, The Red Sox naI completed their scoring against Bridges in the earlier part of the game.
 Charley Ruffing. New York Yan- kee hurler, proved more successful as batter than on the mound. He dld not get credit for the Tanks T 10 6 10 inning victory over the St Lotus Browns, although he con- 1rlouted two hor- runs toward if Chuck Klein, youthful slugger of the . Phlil1es also hit two homers. but they were not enough to beat Pittsburgh's Plrates, who slammed out five runs Tn the fourth inning for a 6 to 5 victory. The Boston Braves and Cincinnati were not scheduled.
