much harder than in previous years. Charlie Leader and Bill CurtiSs have lined up Rotary club team to take on the Lions who had a record last year of doubling the score of their nearest competitors. The Kiwanis club, with the help of President Dr. Charles Larkin of the Y and former Y president, Levi Wilcox, promises to step into the service club race. Probably one of the greatest threats is the Scovill company team with the stalwart backing of men like John B. Goss, Captain Eddie Col lins, and Y Director Arthur Hickox
 The Lions team headed by it's president, Adolph Raymond. and with such experienced campaigners as Gene Beadle and Glenn Sweet has topped the drive steadily for several years, both for the Y and for the Boy Scouts. If they lose in this campaign, good team will have to work hard to beat them.

Petition Requesting Se- lectmen Appoint Him
 Constable Presented

Correspondent: Nellie s. Fair-
 grieve. Phone 513.

A petition requesting the select men to apopint James Blakeman of the Fluteville section of the town as constable has been presented to the board. Every taxpayer in that section signed the petition. MT. Blakeman has for a number of years been elected constable on the democratic ticket. This year, how ever, the democrats for some reason failed to renominate him. Hence came the action of Fluteville resi- dents who feel they are entitled to police protection as well as other districts. MT. Goodhue, one of the petitioners, stated that Constable Blakeman had served the com munity well, that he had been a most efficient officer, and that he had never refused to answer & call for help, no matter the hour.

the CULVER. the Burton Holmes,

golf. "At home have closets full
of albums. Everywhere 1 go my
camera goes, and do believe I've
been everywhere"
mo matter where you go, you'll
find an English colony. And the
first thing an Englishman does after
reaching a place, no matter how re-
mote. is to look for place that will
enable him to hit a few golf balls.
Some of the courses I have played
are crude, yes, but most of them
have been fairly decent courses. l
played a nice little layout in Eth
opia not so long ago, and the greens
in Java are perfect. No, I didn't
play any foursomes with the head
hunters. Speaking of Ethiopia, I
heard while there that Halle Selas-
sic has nice short game, but Is
weak with his woods"
Mr.. Kirkwood said his one disap-
pointment with golf today is that it
produces SO few players with color
and showmanship.

be" Mr. K.irkwood said. but Walter

NEW YORK, Dec. %. W.P)-1n-
vasion of the football field by spec
tators-incidents such as Mike Mes
kos appearance as the 18th man
in Dartmouths line against Prince
ton-Was termed a real menace tC
the game by Walter OkeSon, chair
man of the football rules commit
tee, in his annual report to the
American football coaches asSocia-
ton today.
Destruction of goal posts by jul
bilant roOters in celebration of
football victory also was labeled
deplOrable tendency.
Your committee deplores the
tendency on the part of certain
spectators to invade the playing
field" said Okeson. I'm some cases
this happens while the game is UNI
finished. This sort of rowdineSS is a
real meance to football and often
makes a disagreeable finale to what
was otherwise a thrilling and en-
joyable spectacle"
As for the football rules them
selves, OkesOn recommended that
they be let alone for the good of
the game.
The only definite sentiment for
change concerned the supplementary
note dealing with lateral passes
which gives a runner who is on his
feet, even though he be held by an
opponent, the right to run, pass OF
kick until the whistle blows.
Commenting on injuries, Okeson
said it was 10 times as safe to play
football as ride in motor car.

CORAL GABLES, Fla, Dec. %.
WR)-There is but one universal

The one game that is played

dear old maddening golf, with Its
broken heart for every putt, its
broken club for every broken heart.
The authority for this statement,
which is rather broad one, and
certain to bring me letters OF in
dignation from volley ball addicts
who believe the sun never sets on
volley ball, is Joe Kirkwood, the
trick shot golfer who is more than
that.

that he completed a 14-months

has more than a touch of Ulysses in
him, and this country is rapidly be-

The 27-year-old Oklahoman, who
went to the Pirates from Albany
during the 1884 pennant fight,

On a par with Blanton's per-

a second consecutive season.
"Dizzy" also struck out the
most batters, 1872, to top both
leagues in that department and
lead his own circuit for the
fourth straight season. The
other side of the ledger shows
that Dean yielded 326 hits-mOre
than any other national league
