between the Tanks and the Cubs was attended by no more than 41,O00 persons. This might sound like a whale of crowd until you remember that the Tanks drew more customers than this several times during the regular season:
 When the second game rolled around the Yankees appealed 10 Judge Landis for the right to abandon the rule. The judge re- fused 60 reient completely. but sal dhe wouldn't say anything II the ban on single ducats was lifted. The Tanks wasted no time in throwing the rule overheard. And as a result, there were 10000 more paying customers at the second game than there were at the first.
 The block of three rule has no sense, If any other sort of busi- ness tried it, the people would re- volt. Yet baseball has been getting by with the same thing for sew erai years.

STRANCLER LEWIS WRESTLER MOSKI
 AT ARENA TONITE
Sammy Stein, New York Grid Star, in Prelim Against Pat Mckay Hagen Meets McClary

New Haven, Oct 4.-When Steve
 Znoski of New Britain, steps into the ring to meet Ed (Strangler) Lewis in the star finish match of Promoter Jim Downing's weekly
 wrestling program here tonight, he will be up against the newly proclaimed worlds champion of mat. Lewis was made champion by exclamation of the New York State Athletic Commission last week as an aftermath of Jim Londons' re- fusal to agree to wrestle the Ken lucky Cave Man." before Sept 3O.
 The only stipulation laid down to the new titleholder, who, by the
 way, has held the same crown sev- eral times before, is that he meet the winner of a Ray Steele-Jack Sherry match. Little did Znoski realize when he signed to meet Lewis that he would be facing the new champion here tonight, and
 should Steve defeat Lewis whose physical condition has improved to an amazing degree, the Nutmeg state lad will most likely be chosen the winner of the aforementioned match.
 In to-night's semi-final finish fray, Pat McClary, 250-pound Irish
 giant, who has been signed by
 Downing for series of three
 matches here, will face George
 Hagen of Norwalk, ex-marine, who will test Pat severely. McClary,
 since his return from Ireland, has won several bouts in record time
 and Hagen will be in there to stop this streak.
 Pat Mckay, Boston bad man, is slated to tangle with Sam Stein of New York, Jewish mat king, in the special 30-minute fray which should result in one of the best
 tussles of the night. Two other time limit bouts complete the bat tie bill with Roland Kirschmeyer

 Practice Tonight

In order to get g. football team together that will look something like grid combine, rather than a clique of cabbage salesmen, Man. ager Tim Grove has called prac- tice for the All-Waterbury football team tonight at Hamilton Park, starting at 7:30 o'clock, if the lights are on. The showing of the boys in Ansonia last Sunday gave the locals about as much chance of beating the Acorns. as a holder of ten million shares of Acoustic Products has of beating the boys on Wall street. This week, the Waterbury outfit may go to Thomast0n for clash with the Ponies, and here's hoping they come through untrampled.

|DORAE-M'EWAN FRIENDLY FEUD
 RENEWED OCT Is
|U. of Detroit and Holy Cross Coaches, Chums Since, 1909, Will Meet at FittOn Field
(By NEA service)

Detroit, oct 4-When the Uni- yersity of Detroit football squads meets Holy Cross at Worcester, Mass, on October Is, a friendly rivalry that has lasted since 1909 will be renewed between Charles E. Gus" Dorais. Detroit coach, and John J. McEwan, Holy Cross men, tor.
 It all started when McEwan secuted Dorais when that young feller was playing quarter for a high school squad. McEwan sent him to Minnesota for a tryout. but he proved too light. Young Dorais packed up his grip and left for Notre Dame, where he turned out to be one of the best quarters ever developed there.
 In his senior year Dorais, cap tain of the Irish, took the team east and drubbed the Army. Me- Evan played center for the cadets.
 More than a decade passed be- fore the two met again. Detroit. coached by Dorais, played the Army, directed by McEwan, four times, and got four drubbings.
 Now the two meet again. Me- Evan is coach of Holy Cross, and the tangle between the two teams ought to be interesting. It looks as though Dorais has a chance to avenge those four defeats at the hands of the McEwan- coached Army.

It might not me amiss here to express the expectancy that he Will need a "whirlwind shift" to hold Yale even, for the Yale bulldog has a lot of distemper in its backfields and the Maroon, rather than KICK" ing the animal, may find itself Tn need of new seat for it's pants.
 Yale's Big Threat
 Singling out one man in the Yale backfield for respectful observa- tions is not hard at all. The man is Bob Lassiter, who alternated with Albie Booth last year, and who was so busy getting around that half the time the customers didn't know whether it was Booth they had paid to see, or Lassiter.
 The other backs are Parker, Crowley and Lowering. They are veterans, and have taken to the Notre Dame shifts, which were an innovation last year, just as though their names were Savoldi or Schwartz.
 Veteran Chicago Line
 MT Stagg has something, of course, besides that electric runa- bout and his new whirlwind shift. There are veterans in the forward wall, and young Pat Page, son of the Maroon assistant coach, is ex- pected to star in the backfield. He has some very firce1looking young men in John Womer, guard; Tom Film, quarterback, and Cecil Stor- ey, full back.
 It isn't a bad team, but victory over Yale would have to be regard ed as an upset.

people, the doctor says: Go to bed
at once and stay there until fever,
sore throat and all acute symptoms
are gone.

letin. Rest in bed is the best known

But go to bed first and stay there.

The third rule has taken on a
new importance of late since re-
cent medical studies have shown
how many weakened hearts and
general failures in health could be
traced to an attach that failed to
get proper after care.
This rule is: Do not go back to
work or to school or to any active
pursuit too soon. Give yourself an
extra few quiet days at home after
all symptoms seem to have vanish
ed. That few day may save a
weakened heart and allow it to re-
turn to normal strength: It may
save you from many unexplained
illnesses later on.
Persons with already weakened
or damaged hearts are especially
warned to take care of themselves
during and after an attack of flu.

"Flu Rules Laid
Down By Physicians

st. Paul, Minnesota-"Flu" is
prevalent here, physicians of the
Minnesota State Medical Associa-
ton warn Minnesotans today.
Three rules Of conduct are ac-
cordingly urged by association re-
representatives. upon everybody who
wants to avoid flu, or If he can't
avoid it, to suffer as little trouble
as possible a the time with no bad
after effects.
The first rule cited in the bullet
in is: Avoid people who complain
of colds or sore Threats or sniff1es
or any other suggestive symptom.
The first days after onset Of the
disease are undoubtedly the most in
fictitious. Keep away yourself, from
people who say they are coming
down with something and keep the
children away from them.
The unfortunate flu suspect in
the home should be masked when
he is obliged to associate with
other members of the family. That
is, he should wear a pad of several
thicknesses of muslin or gauze over
his mouth and nose to proect others
from mouth spray when he is talk
ing or coughing and sneezing. He
should keep his hands scrupulously
washed so as not to transfer infec-
ton to objects used by others.
The second rule is for people
who have contracted flu them
selves. You can't help doing it, the
doctors point out, so long as others
with whom you come into unavoid-
able contact, hav no conscience

Dying Eel Grass May Starve Wat
er Fowl, Says Lewis

Dying Eel Grass May Starve Wat
er Fowl, Says Lewis
Washington, D. CA note of
alarm was sounded at the Nine
teenth American Game Conference
in New York when Harrison f.
Lewis, chief federal migratory
bird officer of the Ontario and
Quebec governments, said that the
disappearance of Eel grass may
bring about starvation of Brant,
the Canada goose and some species
of wild ducks, according to a bull
letin of the American Game AS
ISOLATION, sponsors of the Confer
ence.
In some manner, as yet unde-
termined, disease presumably at
tacks the grass. Vast areas have
become denuded along the Atlantic
coast from the Carolinas to New
Brunswick. If it is disease, the Or
ganisms, it is believed are brought
from the tropics by the warm wa
tiers of the Gulf Stream. The same
conditions it was pointed out, are
now making themselves evident on
the coast of France.
Lack of the plant, when not
causing the brant and geese to die
of Starvation, results in a great
restlessness and consequent weak
ness of the birds, Mr.. Lewis point
ed out.
Large flocks fly to the old feed
ing grounds, and finding them bar
rem, go on to other areas. Still
finding none Of their accustomed
food, the birds continued to fly
over the old feeding places all
along the route where this grass
previously grew until in many
cases, starvation follows, Mr..
Lewis said.

Road Bond Program
Promises Are Kept
Paving and Grading Accomplish
ment Exceeds Estimates Made
When Bin Was Pending

The program Of trunk highway
paving promised for the 1882
biennium when the highway bond
bill was the 1881 Legislature, has
been exceeded by $50 miles and the
grading program by 100 miles, ac-
cording to figures given out by c.
NJ. Babcock, commissioner of high
ways. The two year program, con-
tingent on passage of the bill,
was 825 miles of paving and 1000
miles of grading. Actual accom-
plishments for 1882 are 978 miles
of paving and 1905 miles of grad
ing. The department has also in
creased the bituminous treated
mileage by 1900. Minnesota now
has 2.412 miles paved and 2,649
miles of bituminous gravel in the
state road system, the balance be-
ing nearly all graveled except short
stretches where grading is under
way or was completed too late in
the fall to permit surfacing.

A cruiser car responded to the

"Oh, that's just my pal" was the
retort. Hes harmless. Just a little
too much to drink. He didn't have
a gum"
Hammergren and his partner,
Harley, Kast, cautioning against
further noise, turned to leave.
AS they did so, out Of an inner
room lurched the drunk, still clad
in overcoat and underwear. He
was tugging at his pocket.

Then the two patrolmen, convipc-

Before they got through, one OF
them was on the phone, shouting
excitedly to headquarters that they

concrete construction, have combin-
ed to make the increased donstruc-
ton possible, Mr.. Babcock said.
The special federal aid granted in
1892 and not in-offset by decreases
in motor vehicle and gas taxes.
Most of the paving is in one con-
nected system, and it Is estimated
that more than three-fourths Of the
people Of the state live either in
cities and villages joined by con-
tinuous pavement, or on farms
within mile of the pavements. It
is now possible to drive SGT miles
in Minnesota without getting off
the pavement or backtracking.
This may be done by starting at
Deer River, going via Grand Rap
ids, Virginia, Duluth, Twin Cities,
Mankato and Fairmont, to the Da-
kota line west Of Luverne.
The connected paving system
touches the Iowa line at four
points namely south of Luverne on
No. 6, south Of Albert Lea on No. l,
South of Austin on No. 40, and
south of Preston on No. 20. West
ern termini on continuous lines of
pavement are near Sanborn on No.
z, Marshall on No. IA, Sacred Heart
on No. IL and Morriss on No. 10.
Towards the northwest there is
continuous pavement on No. 8 to
Brandon, No. 81 to Brainerd, and
No. 10 to Onamia.
The greatest mileage Of pave
ment on one highway is 1913 miles
on No. 3, this route being all hard
surfaced except Lake City to Wa
basha and Brandon to Elbow Lake.
When these two gaps are complet-
ed, there will be continuous pave
men from Breckenridge and Moor
head to all the points on the paved
routes in southern and eastern
Minnesota. The longest stretch of
pavement not connected with other
pavements is on No. s, from Be
midi to East Grand Forks.
The new pavement on No. 20
through Rochester and Preston,
connects with Iowa pavements,
and furnishes a new short scenic
all paved route to Chicago.

State Road Upkeep
Costs Going Down
Large Part of Maintenance" Work
Now Devoted to Betterments,
Babcock Says

Trunk highway maintenance ex-
penditures in 1892 show a substan-
tial drop below 1881, except for
snow removal, according to figures
given out by G. M Babcock, COM
missioner of highways. Omitting
snow removal, the maintenance di-
vision spent $3,719,756 from Jan =. 1
to Oct. 81 this year and $3,919,428
in the same months in 1881. Snow
removal, however, cost $685., 849 up
to Nov. 1, 1882, and only $90,37S in
the same months in 1881.
Maintenance of the roadway
which includes regraveling, smooth
ing and patching gravel roads,
patching oiled and tarred road sur
faces, filling cracks in pavements,
maintenance of detours, and other
regular work by the sectionmen,
cost $1,966, 1866 in ten months this
year and $2,102,679 in the same
months last year. Due to the heavy
construction program, it was neces-
sary to maintain 789 miles of de-
tours this year and 803 miles in
1881. Maintenance of right-of-way
and structures, including weed cut
ting, and cleaning bitches and
drains, cost $404, 1853 this year and
$S93, 122 last year.
A few of the larger special items
handled by the maintenance .divis-
ion include new bituminous treat
ments, 1921, 1856 in 1892 and SAFE, 32O
in 1881; bituminous refreshments,
$539,913 in 1892 and $410,199 in
1881; signs and signals, $117,186 in
1882 and $90,102 in 1881; highway
patrol, $163,269 in 1882 and $685.
939 in 1881; the increase in expense
for signs and signals was due to
the replacement of a large number
of painted signs with the reflector
type. Increase in cost of the pa
troll was due to the increase in the
number of men from IS to 20,
which took effect in May 1881. The
patrol, however, has paid for itself
in fines and delinquent license fees
collected.
'The law makes it mandatory
after what is needed to pay inter-
est and principal on state bonds
has been set aside, to use 40 per
cent of the balance of the motor
vehicles receipts for maintenance"
Mr.. Babcock said. I'm the early
years of the work of this division
was strictly maintenance. In re-
cent years, with steady decrease
in routine maintenance require
ments, more and more of the work
of the maintenance division has
been in the nature of betterments.
Much of this has been on the tenn
porary trunk highways, such as re-
shaping, crawling, and bridge i'm
proyements, to carry traffic until
permanent routes can be construct
ed. The maintenance division is
also doing a lot of special work on
routes constructed some years ago,
such as widening shoulders, frost
boil cures, and bituminous treat
ment, necessary to carry the in
creased traffic.
Each mile of pavement built
helps to cut maintenance costs.
When the large bituminous mileage
built in the last two years is sta
bilized, so that less frequent re-
tt eatments will be needed, this will
also cut the maintenance bill. With
a smaller construction program,
there will also be fewer detours to

Not long after they had gone a
second man appeared at the apart
ment and was arrested. He lso
was taken to headquarters.
And about the same time police
posted in the st. Paul Grand ave-

Then police began to straighten
out their difficulties. The two men
arrested in st. Paul were identified
as Lawrence DeVolt, wanted in the
staying of a sheriff in Kirksville,
and his brother Clarence DeVolt,
reported to have been implicated in
the same crime. Lawrence, police
said, was known in gang circles as
an expert machine gunner, and it
was believed he is the one who
manned the gun that poured a rain
of death at Gorski and Evans as
they drew up in front of the bank
in response to a radio alarm.
The two men arrested in Mime
apolis were identified as Owen
Lewis and Robert Newbern, both
with criminal records. A fifth man
was being sought.
Monday morning employees of
the bank will be asked TO look over
the men to clinch the identification.
Officials of the bank also will check
on the brief case full of securities
picked up in the Grand avenue
apartment.
Clarence DeVolt Sunday evening
was transferred to- Minneapolis.
where employees will examine the
suspects, but st. Paul police re-
tanned custody of Lawrence.
