GOVERNOR TAKES BAT

HARRISBURGH, Pa. Cp-After a
three-month tussle with the Repub-

funds, Democratic Gov. George II.
Earle celebrated-and how.
He stopped where the boys of South
street were playing base ball and
picked up a bat.
Come on, the guys an easy mark, !"
said the young pitcher.
The Governor proceeded to waIlop
them way out into the field, leaving
the boys quite awe-inspired even be-
fore they learned who the batter was.

Ancient Greeks Athletes;
Training Was Worth While

The ancient Greeks started physical
training and made it required sub
ject' In their schools.
That is why, says the New York
World-Telegram, without benefit Of
yitamins, they were a strong and hand
some people, virtually every youth was
an expert jayelin hurler and every
maiden a worshiper Of Diana.
This, In effect, was the story told by
200 stars Of physical education classes.
Growth Of physical education was
traced from the time Of the ancient
Greeks, through the medieval period
down to the gay nineties, and up to
when hin billy dance was considered
excellent exercise.
The second period (medieYal times),
demonstrating the Slovenian influence
was illustrated by young woman III
native costume dancing to aecompani-
ment Of an accordion.
The gay nineties were typifed BY a
young man wearing very tight trousers
and a girl In yoluminous skirts riding
a bicycle built for two.

Famous Appian Way Was
Over Three Feet Thick

The modern road builders must go
far to equal the work of the men who
supervised the Appian Way, the famed
roadway of ancient Rome. which has
lasted through the centuries. The cost
Of construction on the scale of the an
cient Romans, however, would be pro-
hibitive.
The great difference between Roman
construction and modern lies in the In
tended purpose OF the road top. The
Romans believed that the road they
built would have to bear the burdens
Modern science merely dresses the nat
ural soil with a surface, the soil itself
carrying the burden.
The Appian Way, which endures aft
er 20 centuries, was 16 feet wide with
2-foot curbs 18 inches high on both sides,
beyond which were 8-foot side roads. 1t
was of solid stone and concrete mason
ry to 41a feet thick, depending upon
the soil on which it was laid. 1t was
very straight. with steep grades and
the curves widened as on modern
roads.
In building the Appian Way bed
of sand and gravel sometimes covered
with q thin coat of lime mortar was
used as a foundation for the four lay
ers Of masonry. The first masonry
layer, from 10 inches to 2 feet thick,
was composed of stones that would
fit in mans hand, held together with
lime mortar or clay. The second layer
Of smaller stones mixed with lime NOR
tar, was 8 inches thick. The third
layer was Of concrete made Of small
stones. sand and hot lime mortar ~
feet thick In the center and foot
thick on the sides, to give crown to
the road.

CYCLISTS CAUTIONED
BY CALHOUN

With the enormous increase in in
juries received by young boys and
girls who ride bicycles, Police Chief
John G.. Calhoun this week issued a
message of safety.
The chiefs safety message, given
the endorsement of DR.. Edward Cook,
Butler county coroner, follows: In
struct your children not to drive their
bicycles against red light stop sig
mails. Bicycles are governed by traffic
laws the same as automobiles. Don't
let them ride tandem-two on BIZ
cycle; this is violation Of city
ordinance Advise them against rae
ing with another cyclist. Caution them
against trick riding, especially against
the trick of riding with their hands off
the handle bars. Tell them not to
circle their bikes in the center of
streets.
"Advise them against riding on
sidewalks, and on the wrong side of
the street. See that they display a
light on the bike when riding at night.
Do not let them hang on the side of
automobiles.
Calhoun also warned motorists to
respect the rights of cyclists to ire
spect the rights Of cyclists on the
streets, and to be extremely careful
when approaching a cycIist, or .
group of children crossing intersec-
tions."

A. F. OF. |. ENDS
Inquiry Into Unions Color
Line

New York City (ILNS)-The Amer
lean Federation of Labor has decided
to conclude its inquiry into the dis
elimination against Negro workers by
labor unions, according to information
sent the National Association for the
Advancement Of Colored People by
William Green, president of the A. F.
Of L.
Mr. Green informed the N. A. A.
G. p. that the executive council of
the A. +. of T., which met in August
in Atlantic City, had decided not to
hold regional hearings on discrimina-
ton in various cities of the United
States with a heavy Negro working
population. He said that the council
believed that the information secured
in the first and only hearing in Wash
ington, D. G., IN July was sufficient.
The N. A. A. G. P. and other inter-
ested organizations had urged the
A. T. Of E. to conduct hearings in
cities with large populations of Negro
workers such as Pittsburgh, Philadel-
phia, Baltimore, Chicago, Detroit,
New York and st. Louis. The associa
tion maintained that only by staging
these regional hearings would the
workers themselves be able to tell the
full story Of the alleged jim crow in
labor unions.
