New York, Oct 24-Those of us who believe in preserving old cus- toms were gratif1ed when General John J. Phelan, chairman of the New York State Athletic commis- sion, ordered an investigation of wrestling.
 For 22 years the athletic com mission has launched wrestling probes on the 23rd day of October without a miss. So, when General Phelan sounded off, he was keeping a rendezvous with tradition.

 LEAGUE NOTES

The first honor of the season, that uis high single for first week, went to Armand Blanchard with a score of 139. Mike Whelan started off like an old time captain filling on a spare on the 9th box with a strike on which he collected six more to win game by a small margin. Frank Monaghan co-starred with Whelan hitting a 353 pinfall.
 The Chase team now led by Dan Sullivan had little difficulty in taking over McPartland's team in the first two games and build up enough lead to also win pinfall.
 Bill Cavanaugh played the lead ing role in the race with the Plum bers to feature for Pepe's team in a point victory, Bill hitting $50 pinfall while the team kept close behind him having a 1870 pinfal.
 The Reilly team can still bat them over in their old time form, going over the 500 mark in each and every game to ike 3 points from George Bearings team, who were strong in first game.
 Joe Harpin's team started off with bang to give the boys a good mark to shoot at, the team piling up a pinfall of 1904 with which they took three points from Dr Cottiero. They also had a high single of 5S5.
 With Pat Gribbon displaying real mid-season form, to hit 339, his team had little difficult in taking three points from the Powermen.
 Armand Blanchard collected 65 pins in the last three boxes to knock out his high single and win the first game for his team, after which the Baldwin Street repre- sentatives made g clean sweep.
 The Lux Clockmen sure protited by their acquisition of Charlie Denehy to the team, Charlie top pliong the pins for total of 358, to beat out the School Teachers in three games.
 There were several good scores WHiCu were lAdQc WlthOuI AAldI hc, but after the finish of week, we find that Joe Dinova leads the race with a score of 93.
 Bill Butkus has one of his big nights going strong in every game to lead the Dvileskis team to a four new team, the Dvileskis team pill iro a y.ix, fon of 1EEQ like old times to see Mike strutting his stuff again.
 After being buried by the Under takers in the first game, Bill Cahills men came back strong with Bill Cunningham playing the leading role to to win other three points.
 Leaman Harvey and Jack Prac- ny didn't even give Verriker's Paonters a look in with their ex- ceptional bowling. Harvey hitting 357, while Pracny hit 334, to pull the team total up to 1860 and take all four points.
 By beating his average by Al pins in knockig off 131 single, Jack York saved the tiremen from "a complete upset. One look at the scores would show that the Beer Barons are out to set some records this year, both in scores and in team mebers, now having nine legitimate members in their team.

Through the rigid application of the

AS emigration coatinued without the
corresponding influx of people the sugar
concerns were compelled TO reduce their
sugar cane areas and individual farmers
were forced to abandon their land or to
turn to cattle raising.

NEEDLEWORK GUILD
 SEEKING MEMBERS
Tomorrow Final Day to Enroll to Aid Needy
 Children

Tomorrow is the last day to en- roll as a member of the Needle work Guild and to do your small share in helping the needy to dress warmly during the coming cold months. Membership means the giving of two new garments. More than 100 workers are ready to take your membership, to help you in purchasing of garments or to do your purchasing for you if you care to give money Men are es. pecially invited to become money members.
 Most children take nightgowns and pajamas for granted. They have always had them. Yet this summer when a group of children were taken to a farm near Water bury for a fresh air cure,. all but one of them had never had night clothes. Either their day under clothes or nothing at all sufficed. One came from family of sixteen ranging in ages from 2 to A. No one in the family had nightclothes and the mother said she couldn't buy street clothes on the SIP a week income.
 Needlework Guild will be happy to provide nightclothes for any such families if enough members join. Warm nightclothes and un- derclothes are needed. Blankets to keep out the bitterness of a winter night. Bathrobes. Wool slippers for tired old feet which never get warm. Bunny slippers for eager little feet which should never be cold.
 Call up one of the board mem bers, Lincoln House, Visiting Nurse or the Anti-Tuberculosis so- cietv and tell them you want to join. A worker will, get in touch with you immediately. Tomorrow is the last day.
