CAR ADVANCEMENT
IS PART OF HISTORY
REQ Motor Car Director Points
to It's Development and
Popularization.

Just as books on natural history
trace the progress Of mankind from
the remote days Of our most primitive
ancestors down to mans present state
of social and industrial advancement,
books on the history Of Transports
ton written for future generations
will trace the development and pop
ularization Of the motor car, accord
ing to r. e. Olds, REQ motor car d.
rector. In mans advancement Ger.
tain stages Of ages are tied in with
his development Of ability and skill
in utilizing the forces and raw ma
terials of nature for his own con.
venience, safety and advancement.

upon the light or the policeman's
signal. In consequence, he Is not
alert to pedestrian movements to that
degree necessary to avoid accidents.
The rule finds 1t irrefutable logic in
that circumstance, 1t is pointed out.
A regulation with respect to car
equipment at which many q motorist
has demurred unsuccessfully when
apprehended In its violation Is that
which requires two headlights at the
front Of the car. Almost invariably
the argument is offered by such Of
tenders that they did not notice one
light was burned out. Their inability
to detect the change, they maintain, is
an indication that one light will pro-
vide adequate illumination. There.
fore, to their minds, two lights are not
exactly indispensable.
To this point, Mr.. Van Duzer an
swers that the "why" of this regulation
Is that two lights are needed to outline
the machine, apart from the consid-
Grafton of Illuminating the road. Ex-
perience has demonstrated that other
drivers need such an outline in judg-
ing passing distance.
Matter Of Common Sense.
Again" he says, 1T is just a mat
ter Of plain common sense"
The difference between good driving
and bad driving in the opinion Of Mr..
Van Duzer Is that the former has Q
philosophy. the latter none.
1.-The philosophy of good driving"
he says. recognizes that the traffic
regulations are built upon the expert
ence of the group as it has expressed
its general traffic conduct. They have
the logic Of instructive action behind
them. Let the driver who thinks
them wrong reflect for a moment on
what the situation would be if the
laws were based upon his conception
Of things-that the individual should
have the right to do as he pleases."

He was a man approaching LIES
middle years and the automobile he
drove proclaimed that his success had
been somewhat more than average.
He stopped the car before the en-
trance to the large office building and
studied the widely spaced mo Park
ing" signs. Apparently coming to q
frowning conclusion that they repre-
sented an intrusion upon his rights, he
drove up as close as possible to one
end of the prescribed zone and parked
his car.
Thirty minutes later he emerged
from the building just in time to see
q policeman putting the finishing
touches on the ticket which formally
accused him of violating the parking
regulations.
His expression turned at once to one
Of wrathful indignation.
whats the idea?" he demanded Of
the officer.
For answer the latter merely handed
him the ticket. The gesture provoked
further vocal explosions, series of
them which concluded with the pro-
test:
No Sense Is Seen.
"But there's no sense in closing a
whole half block on each side Of a
building entrance"
The unruffled policeman glanced at
the two signs with an expression which
implied eloquently that "a whole half
block" represented considerable Of an
overstatement. His silence, however,
continued unbroken while the irate
motoriSt denounced the law and its
servant.
I'm sorry, sir" the policeman said
finally when the other had concluded.
With that he Saluted and walked away.
And, II he was an intelligent police
man he truly was sorry, according to
William A. Van Duzer. director Of
traffic for the District of Columbia.
From the arresting policeman all
the way along the list" says Mr.. Van
Duzer, "every official having to do
with administering trafiic laws sin
cerely is sorry the public does not
realize all such regulations are based
upon necessity and plain common
ssnse
1T may startle the average man. but
the fact is that the traffic regulations
actually are made, in the main, by the
public. Each of them represents q
statement of a way to do thing
which the collective experience of
motorists has demonstrated to be the
best way.
Understand, do not say the regu-
lations thus evolved are ideal or per-
feet. However, in none of his in
dividual or collective functions does
man seem to have achieved perfection;
1t makes no difference whether that
function Is making left turn in
traffic, selecting public officials, or
properly distributing wealth. What
we have. however, In each case, prob
ably represents the best we have been
able to achieve"

Those intrepid neighbofhood rivals in sports of all sorts. the Tribune A. 0. and Washington Hills are scheduled for the prin- cipal baseball attraction at Ham, iiton Park, tomorrow afternoon in the City Amateur League meeting on the first diamond at o'clock. With both team loaded for the game with as fine collection or players as their hustling managers have been able to bring together. the game looks like something that ought to give the Sunday custom CTS plenty to look at.
 Kaukis May Pitch
 Manager Tom Purcell will prob ably trot out young Tommy Kau- kis the former Crosby High school finger against the Tribes with Joe Strokalaitis ready for duty in an emergency. Or it may be the other way round, while the Tribunes will have their newly acquired iron horse" Percy Atwood on the hill against the Hills, for his ability is sound both in the box and at the plate.
 Two Early Games
 At1:45 o'clock the Sacred Hearts and North End Thomas Club will get under way on the second dia- mond while the Brooklyns and North Square-Recreations are bill- ed for contest on the first diamond at that time. Both of these games should produce something to make the followers of the four teams let out @ few yelps of encouragement for number of heavy and danger ous hitters are listed in the line- ups.
 With the promise of fine baseball weather and all six teams in con- dition for their games, another crowd of 5000 to 5000 fans will probably be on hand for the open ing games, to which umpires will be assigned directly before game time by. President George Casey.

GERMAN SOCCER CLUB OPPOSES
 PHOENIX FOES

Tomorrow afternoon star soc- cer attraction will be played at Schwarz field, Bridgeport, when the German Sport club will introduce to the public new opponent to Connecticut soccerdom. when the Phoenix Soccer club of Philadel- phia will play an exhibition game against the Bridgeport German team. It will be the second Phila- delphia team to appear in Bridge port during the month, for the Fairhall r. c. of the Quaker City was tho last team to appear in Bridgeport.
 The Phoenix team has never previously played in Connecticut, but 1t Is q great team as its record shows. and to prove the fact 1t may be noted that the team has played the F'airhall team four times this season and won every game. As a member of the Pennsylvania league last season 1t went through the entire schedule without losing a game and won the pennant quite easily. It reached the semi-final round of the eastern section of the National Amateur Cup Competi- ton where 1t was eliminated by the Nauticoia F. O. by the score of To. This season it has played in all S7 games, winning 28, tieing 2, and losing only two games. scor- Ing 97 goals aainst 20 by its op- ponents.
 It has won the German-Ameri- can leaue six times in succession and has been recommended in Bridgeport by the members of the Fairhail team owing to the great hospitality of the German Sport club and the good sportsmanship of the Bridgeport fans.
 Every member of the team, which Is an auxiliary of the First German Association, the greatest soccer organization in the country, is an amateur player of the high- est calibre and comes here with Q great reputation.
 Being the only game in the southern section of the state a large crowd is expected from all sections of the state. The German Sport club, which was unfortunately de- feated by the Swedish Athletic club last Sunday in the final round of the Protective Cup Competition, will have it's full team out this week for this game and anticipates a victory when opposed to its far stronger rivals.

 Tomorrow's headline attraction up at Fulton Park, brings together the pace setting c. 6 c. Jrs., and the hustling North End Hillies, di- rected by Smoky Palladino.

Fulton park, 1:45 o'clock, Wilson's vs Washington Hill Bears; 1 o'clock, c. 6 c. Jrs. vs N. b. Hillies., Umpire, Crocco. scorer Fo- ley.
 Hard Luck
 Rain washed out the colored American Legion teams game last wee.s to postpone their chances of breaking into the win column, so Alex Graves and his boys are out to win today at the expense of the Waterbury A. c. who incidentally were handed a surprise setback by the Hillies in one of the two games played in the league last week. Bob Wookey, veteran fireball ace of the Presidents will toe the rub hef arainat Andreaon
 Playing their first game on the Fulton diamond this season, the Washington Hill Bears led by Shinny Shea are out to impress the fans with a victory over the highly touted Wilson A. C.. The Brooklyn lads must win tomorrow in order to stay in the running for first round honors. Overton and White will be the rival pitch CTS.
 All Set
 Herman Bernier's fourth place Hamiltons encounter the greatly improver St. Stanislaus club in Wa terville. Showing several new faces in its lineup the Saints are to be considered very dangerous for the remainder of the year. On Joe Mo- bile's trusty left arm rests the Hamilton's hopes of victory while Fiftal will pitch for the Saints.
 Smoky Palladlno's second place North End Hillies, who are only Q half game out of first place, face tha ,.aoa aattinu ~ Q, ~ Ira in tha days headliner. Showing such hustling youngsters as DeLucia, Romeo, Pugliese and Koslosky, the Hillies may spring the unexpected. Sof ar the c. && c. club has drift ed along without the bitter taste of defeat and tomorrow lookk for ward to another victory. Berardl, newly added to the c. & c. stan, will pitch while Eddie Gederitias will oppose him.

 In their first meeting, the Green and White slapped Nauga- tuck flatter than lunch cart pancake, 10-1, but the Foleymen have shown flashes of brilliance on various occasions since that time, so victory for Capt. Lem Credo and his mates does not seem en- tireiy out of the question.
 Capt. Credo will probably hurl, in view of the fact that 1t Is his final game in @ Naugatuck high school uniform, and either Morris or Norby will hold him up. Haigh and Hoey will be the reserve moundsmen.

 Rangoon, Burma, June 16.-- (UP).--Well, folks, you can't say I don't keep my promises, for here I am in Rangoon just as said I'd be if Braddock beat Baer for the heavyweight championship.
 Employing a device powered by the steam that was lacking In Baer'g punches, made a remark ably fast passage from New York and came into Rangoon harbor yestreday just as the dawn came up like thunder out of China cross the bay.
 I write this stretched out on n sambaxa in my small but comfort able quarters hard by the left bank of the River Hlaing. I am smoking, an enjoying, a long, black cheroot or rupee. At my feet is my native boy, Gunga Din, lazily flaming me with fcur giant punkahs. Perhaps it's mly imagination, but one of the punkahs--the largest one-- bears a strong resemblance to Baer.
 Tn view of the common miscon- ceptlon regarding Burma's cli- mate, am happy to report that comfort is Q matter of clothing. a..d am no hotter here than was in New York, and as many of you will admit, I was not so hot in New York.
 As to clothing, I am affecting the cotton surcingle made popular this year by the Dionne quintuplets. It is ccmmodious, and gives very knobby effect, especially around the knees.AI understand that most newcomers have difficulty arrang- ing the Burma dress but fou..d 1t quite easy. Fortunately, my mother was never one to pamper her children and I graduated from infancy with sound working knowledge of the safety pin.
 In ore corner of my room, work ing industriously over small chedawah or stove, Is ancient Mom- khajuri, my cook. She is currying my rice. Outside the door q know they're there by the soft batter of their sandalled feet and tse soft notes of their irawaddies) are sev- eral native Anfay-Ancerdays who also are currying--my favor. Later. after have had . change of cloth ing and enjoyed one of the noted Burma slaves, may step ut on my balcony and allow them to amuse me with their dances. I trust their routine will be more enjoyable and effective than the waltzing of Baer.
 Since my arrival I havn't heard mention of the fight. l spoke of it to Gunga Din and he asked blankly:
 "who Braddock Baerg They fighters?"
 couldn't lie to him.
 "No." I answered. "they aren't"
 want my friends to know that I'm happy in Rangoon. No one here knows of my shame. I am free to come and go as I please, and when I walked along the street CT into the quaint jabwob- berbobbers for a spot of chutney, no one turns to second guess me. Although the strain of having to watch Braddock and Baer through fifteen rounds weakened my eyea to a point where reading pains me, am not lonesome. have taken up snak charming, and there is no more satisfying way to while away the hours. my friends, thain to hold a cobra in your lap and teach it to say:
 "How many of those guys who gave you the razz, thought enough of Braddock's chances to have a little dough down? Nuts to lem. kid!"
