We hope that our continued warnings about brush fires won't become too te- dious, but even if they do we will still re- peat them at regular intervals in the spring and fall. No matter what the authorities do and say people continue to allow brush fires to get beyond their control and endanger much private property. A brush fire can easily become forest fire. And we don't want any serious forest fires around Waterbury. Our woodland areas are too scant as 1t is. Our streams are none too wide or deep. Denude the surrounding country of all vegetation and this would be a pretty barren section of the scenic Nau- gatuck valley. Watch all fires and call the fire department at the first sign of danger.

SOME WORK, OTHERS TALK

It is quite true that many mem bers work their heads off, but the Record shows that there are too many others who talk their heads off for purposes far less worthy
 The Senate, freer from rules control and hence usually more valuable parliamentary body than the House, is the worst offender both from the standpoint of use- less gabble and filling up the Record with costly type.
 HOUSE IS STTNGY. BUT
 Senators may talk as much as they like, in effect, and they allow each other leave to insert almost anything in the Record. The House is stingy about granting its members Record space.
 Some representative is usually bound to object to the insertion of anything except an extension of remarks through which a comrade pretends to have made speech so that he may frank it back to his district for reelection purposes. That's only common courtesy, of course, to let such stuff get by.
 Nevertheless, Congressman, Pat man of Texas, the bonus man, took over II pages one day this session and IS pages on another, what between actual speech and inser- tions. Kelly of Illinois got 16 pages similarly and Frear of Wisconsin required 45 pages (cost. $2,610) for two speeches (including inser- tions) on the same subject.
 
 JUST PURE GABBLE.
 But for pure gabble the most prolific members include even some of the august leaders of Con- gress. Senator Pat Harrison, rec ognized as the democratic party's unofficial chief castigator of the republican party, and Senator Jim Watson of Indiana, majority floor

Los Angeles school books are declared out of date because students still recite from them that grape growing for manufae- ture of wine is one of California's most important industries :" and when the Panama Canal is completed, Los Angeles may be an important city Of course the former is still true California grapes are used to manufacture wine in concentrated form although it is sold as fruit juices. Los Angeles is important. but not because the Panama Canal was built
 but because it is a suburb of Hollywood.

Washington-The Congressional Record costs us $5S a page, but that fact doesn't seem to make 1t any smaller, even in these days. :.
 It would be lot cheaper 1T members of Congress were content to let the Record go with a mere record of legislative transactions and speeches actually made on the floor, but instead of that they fill it up with reprints of documents, speeches made elsewhere by some body, rotten poetry from constitu- ents and long tabulations of statis- tics designed to prove something or other
 And large additional saving might be made if each man who had the floor were always com- pelled to stick to his subject.
 But if you go as far as that it would be only logical to insist that no member ever be permitted to talk simply because he loves the sound of his own voice, or for the mere benefit of his constituents. Fat chance!

ST. JOHNS PREPARING
FOR HOPKINS BATTLE
Leads, 20 to 10, in Long Series
and Is Anxious to Keep Edge
With Win Saturday.

ANNAPOLIS. Md.s october 4.-Lead-
ing by 20 victories to 10 in the long
series, St Johns College gridders yes
terday held a lengthy workout in prep
Grafton for its forty-fifth contest with
their traditional foe, Johns Hopkins
ST. Johns is anxious TO hold its lead
over the Black and Blue Jays. Hop
kins tied the series in 1926 and went
one game ahead in 1927. but in 1928 st.
Johns won, As to 0, to hand the Balti-
moreans the worse drubbing in the his
tory of the series. st. Johns won, 26
to 6, in 1929 and 1880 to lead but two
games. Hopkins, running true to tradl-
tion, however, defeated a favored st.
Johns eleven, 20 to 13. last season.
This year the Jays are the favorites
and ST. Johns feels that it is its turn
to upset the dope bucket. Since the
series began in 1888 there have been
many upsets. 1t is the game of games
between the two institutions. Holding
about an equal rating in the athletic
world, the Jays and Johnnies contest
has become a State classic.
While st. Johns leads in the series
and five games have been tied, Hopkins
has scored 424 points, compared to 385
for the locals The scoring has been
rather high for Is years. Before that
point or a touchdown usually decided
the issues ST. Johns has kalsomined
Hopkins II times against a like num-
ber of whitewashes. The 1907 game
was a scoreless tie.
This season both the Johnnies and
Jays have won the only game previous
ly played. Hopkins has a fine attack
while the locals are more boastful of
their defense, although Carl MacCartee,
washington boy. and Kilmore are two
fine running backs.

She uses a brassie off the tee.

she is a fine putter and her ap-
proaches are good. Bobby plays with
her often on Sundays and gives her
some tips, but leaves the general in
struction to Beckett.
In another year she'll be very
good player if she can give the time
to practice" Beckett says. Mother
ing her three children keeps her
busy most of the time and she finds
it difficult to get in much real prac-
tice.
Mrs. Jones is a slender, tall bru-
nette. Bobby was just as excited as
Mrs. Jones when she qualified for
the top flight in her first competi-
tion. Mrs. Jones doesn't plan to
play in tournaments other than her
club events and plays the game only
for the exercise and fun of it.
