NEW YORK, Jan. &C., Once more Ike Boone, the 35-year-old Alabaman hast failed to make the grade in the big show. This time Brooklyn has sold him to Toronto of the International League.

other important feature entering in
to the testing of cars. If there is
insufficient play in the steering
wheel, or too much. this fact will be
noted by the inspectors, and the Ow-
nef directed to have the necessary
corrections made, wherever he has
his car or truck looked after.
Wheel alignments will also play
prominent part in the inspection.
Special apparatus will at once an
nounce when the alignment is not
correct, and the owner told what to
do in the way of repairs.
Brake equalization is still anOth-
er very important feature of the
test. Now, that there are four
brakes on most motors, the brake on
one wheel may be defective, and
this in cases of emergency may be
the reason for an accident if the en-
tire four brakes do not harmoniZe
together when pressure is applied.
Apparatus will indicate instantly
any wheel brake that is not func-
tioning properly.
There will be no repairs or cor
rections of anything defective about
the car or truck made when it is in
spected. No garage inspections will
be made this year as in past years,
and the owner of a car or truck will
have to have the defections correct
ed wherever he has his repairs
made.
Each car owner will be notified by
mail where he shall go to have his
car inspected. The safety lane will
be moved about from town to town
in each county, and he will be eX-
pected to go to the nearest town
where such tests are to be made.
According to State law, enacted
by the General Assembly, this car
inspection must be made between
July IS and August 81, in order that
the car or truck may continue to be
operated.

of the districts.
MIR. Gassaway thus far has led
the States campaign for public
works funds under the Industrial
Recovery Act. 1t was upon his init
iative that public officials from all
over the State were called together
to discuss the act as it affects Del
aware and to make plans for this
States participation. He has made
an intensive study of the act and is
virtually the only authority in the
State on its provisions.
His understanding of the Penin-
sula's economic structure and his
wide acquaintance with all sorts OF
business men and industrialists, 1t
is pointed out, make him especially
fitted for the position. Another fac
tor that has motivated persons to
urge his appointment has been a
general desire to keep administra-
tion of the public works program
strictly removed from politics.
The duties of the administrator
will include recommending public
works for approval by the Federal
and generally supervis-
ing execution of the projects.
