 George Judson, 27, of 106 Wal nut street and John Kuratkowski. 28. of 145 Locust street, were the two defendants assessed by Judge John F. McGrath. They pleaded guiltysto an early morning disturb ance on North Main street. Whether they were talking to themselves, shouting at each other or joining in the chorus, is mat ter of opinion, but the noise was sufficient to summon the police and result in their arrest. They plead ed guilty this morning.
 The case of August Diginas, 46, of 85 Burr street was continued until Monday morning. He is also charged with breach of the peace. In all three cases the complaint was made that the trio had been imbibing,t but this is not serious offense anymore in police circles.

Hartford, Conn.,, Mar. 9-(UP) Member of the society of Amer ican magicians, who emptied their bag of tricks before the legisla- ture judiciary committee to defend a bill prohibiting the revealing of secrets of professional entertainers, today awaited a bit of legislative magic which will decide the fate of the measure.

Boys Like Cooking

Cooking is no mystery to boys OF
the Lowrey school, Dearborn. Last
fall there were 134 applicants who
wanted to join the Boys Cookery
club at the school. so two clubs were
formed to take care of as many of
the wouldbe cooks as possible. AT
a recent Father-andS banquet the
members demonstrated the skill
they have acquired since then. With
the aid of their sponsors. the boys
prepared entire meals for 20O

These are some of the oppor-

States Navy to young men.

Charlie Fyfe and his able assist.
ant, Charlie Reynolds, formerly
associated with the Knights of Co

young men and boys the same ad.
vantages if they join it's athletic
club.
One of the latest and novel
games going on at the Boys Club
at present is indoor baseball. A
five-team league is in operation,
and although the teams are not
uniformed and do not possess the
facilities of regular outdoor mines,
they have just as much fun or
more.
Gloves Not Necessary
Gloves are not necessary for
this game. All you need is an in
door ball and bat. The site of
the contests is the spacious Boys
Club gymnasium.
The teams competing are the
Eagles, who won the first-half
crown; Muddy Ruels, All-Stars,
the Pirates and the Merrick Boys
Club. The Merricks are leading
the second-half race.
Charlie Reynolds originated the
unique idea one rainy night. He
thought:
"Why can't the boys play
baseball at night as well as dur
ing the day. We have a huge
gym and it will be ideal for in
door baseball"
And so he organized the league,
formulated drastic rules and the
boys responded with such unusual
enthusiasm that the league be-
came successful.
There Rainy Nights
Two games are played every
night except Saturdays and Sun
days. The boys prefer rainy eve
nings because they can play bet
ter when the rain beats against
the window panes and the light
ming strikes with it's ferociouS
bolts.
Such wellknown scholastic and
sandlot stars as Mario Gregori,
Louie Hayman. Louie Grasso,
Buck Porter, Tony Caruso, Joe
Amin, Harry Hofberg. "Leggo"
Lamb, Joe Crisafull, Gus De
George, Hymie Schulman, George
Calmeris, Johnny Mandese and
Walter Merchant are competing
in the loop.
Besides this attractive novel
league, there are numerous other
sport attractions going on at all
times at the club.
