Holy Name Society championship
: at Convention Hall, at 1880.
And on May Is, the league will
stage it's brilliant annual banquet
which has become one of the
major attractions of each bowling
season.
The tournament, an idea which
has struck a highly responsive
chord among the bowlers, is the
thing on which George F.. Har-
bin, the prexy, and his lieuten-
ants, Edward j. Kelley, OF st.
Joseph, league secretary and
executive chairman of the tour
nament, William E. O'Brien OF
st. Matthews, John T. Critten-
den, Of st. Francis Xavier, and
Larry Cook, Bob Dillon and
Ollie Pacini, all of st. Peters,
are concentrating right now.
Last year Sc per cent of the
league bowlers turned out for
it, a showing not to be sneezed
at.
Strives for IS Per Cent
However, the committee sees
no reason why rs per cent of
leagues maple-spillers should not
shoot for a purse of some $3.50.
Approximately 5000 was dis
tributed among Is winners last
year.
Though the tournament opens
tonight, tomorrow will be the big
night with some 10 teams, 40
singles and 20 doubles on tap.
To make everything convenient
for prospective entries, the tour
nament will last 10 days, from
today until May 9, and bowlerS
can pick the night most conven-
lent to them. Entry fee is 81 per
man per event, including price of
games.
rs Teams Last Year
Last year IS out of 40 teams
rolled with st. Gabriel's "a" barely
nosing out st. Peters "D'' by four
pins, St. Peters enjoying a 119
pin handicap.
Jack Preller, Of st. Gabriel's,
surprised by winning the singles
with All set, including generous
81 pin handicap. Here's complete

FATIGUE HELD AID
TO AUTO MISHAPS
Keystone Club Survey Shows
More Accidents in Evening
Rush Hours.

Mental and bodily fatigue looms as
an important element to be consid-
cred in relation to reduction Of high.
way accidents. according to conclu.
sions reached by the Keystone Auto
mobile Club through extensive study
Of accident reports.
Club investigators have found, for
example, that automobile accidents in
the morning rush" hours are only
about one-third of the number record
ed in the evening rush" hours. Over
a period Of five years this ratio OF
highway crashes held good in the re-
ports examined.
There is a lesson for motorists in
these figures" says a Keystone bulle-
tin. THE motorist. fresh and alert
in the morning. drives with ease and
confidence After a hard days work
his physical, mental and nerve eff
cheney is not up to par and his driving
lacks the assurance Of the morning run
to ONCE, store or factory. Reactions are
slower and he becomes involved in ac-
cidents that he would have avoided
without conscious thought in the
morning.
Motor car manufacturers who are
making extensive researches into the
causes of driver fatigue as it relates
to automobile equipment are to be
commended. Unquestionably, good re-
suits will follow correction of condi-
tions found to contribute to that tired
feeling but the individual must al
ways take into consideration his own
state of mind and body before start
ing to drive.
Common prudence dictates that the
driver who is tired before he takes his
place behind the steering wheel should
give himself-or herself-a greater
margin of time to reach home or other
destination. The motorist who can
make the off1ce in 20 minutes nat
in the morning should allow half an
hour or more for the return trip in the
evening""

Rule Applies Everywhere.

The average nnotorist thinks Of the
risht-of-way rule as applying only at
street intersections. AS a matter OF
fact, speaking broadly. 1t applies to
every inch Of the street or highway.
When any driver gets out Of his right
full place, he has invaded the right Of
way that belongs 10 another street
user.
Driving on the wrong side Of the
highway, which accounted for 1892
n1ishaps, clearly takes the offending
motorist into the right Of way OF the
man coming from the opposite direc-
ton. The stop" sign on the second
ary street or highway is placed there
as a warning that the trafic on the
main street or highway has the right
of way. Yet, out Of slightly less than
100000 accidents tabulated, $500
were due to violations Of this funda-
mental provision Of modern traf1c law.
If the motorist would but analyze
his own attitude regarding the right
of way, he would see o tremendous
significance and q valuable lesson In
these accident statistics. Such an
ANALYSIS would reveal to him that he
expects to make the utmost use Of his
right of way. For example, approach
ing the crest Of hill he proceeds at
q high speed on the assumption that,
having the right Of way. his path
will be clear as he begins the descent
on the other side.
Exactly the same attitude prevails
with regard to driving around curves.
It is the nature Of every motorist TO
assume that the other man will stay
where he belongs in such q case.
Others Count on Right Of Way.
The motorist making the analysis
should put himself in the other fell
lows place. He should realize that
the other fellow also is counting upon
making use Of his right of way and
that he will not find 1t invaded by
D driver to whom 1t does not belong.
A thorough understanding Of the
term right Of way" and q little re-
Election on its meaning by each in
dividual driver might 90 far toward
elimination Of the commonest cause
of street and highway accidents.
There are some who may disagree
with the inclusion in the list Of the
446 accidents laid to passing through
safety zones. However, the motortst
does not have the right Of way in
such q case. The zone area is re-
served for the pedestrian in nearly
every part of the country whether or
nr. it is occupied. Any motorist who
drives through this area imposes upon
the rights Of another.
Strictly speaking, the motorist who
observes the right-of-way regulations
Is always in his rightful place. II a
larger proportion were always in their
rightful places, obviously there would
be fewer accidents.

Petri to Play at Shoreham.

EGON PETRI. celebrated Dutch
pianist, has left his home in Po-
land and is en- route to England,
where he was proclaimed several
years ago lone of the few great
pianists." Egon Petri is the second
artist to appear on the Concerts In
times concert course at the Shore
ham, Elena de Sayn. director. and
will give his recital Tuesday after
noon, January IA. Mr.. Petri spent
the Summer on his estate near the
famous Summer resort zakopane,
where he divided his time between
his own preparation for his extensive
tours this season and his teaching.
Mr.. Petri has made many friends
in Washington and his return is be-
ing looked forward to with interest.
Several requests for certain concert
numbers reached Miss de Sayn re-
Gently and will be submitted for Mr..
Petris consideration.
Jan Kubelik. who will give his re-
cital on the Concerts Intimes course
Tuesday afternoon, December 3, is on

Another thing needed to make driv-
ing more sensible and safe Is q we'll
defined greed limit.
Watching bus drivers take a corner
suggests an idea that should prevent
many driver from humping the right
rear wheel against the curb. Drivers
of these mammoth cars invariably
swing the front end out before start.
ing to cut the front wheels for the
turn. This gives the needed margin
of clearance for the right rear wheel.
OF course, 1t Is not necessary to fol-
low this exaggerated process, but 1t
at least suggests the essence Of the
idea.
This is the day not only Of special
lists in service but of specialized
troubles. I was reminded of this by
the case of a n1otorist who had been
the round of shops trying to find out
how water got into the crankcase.
Ordinarily this condition suggests
leaky cylinder head easket, but new
gaskets, inspection of the cylinder
head and the usual routine failed
to bring relief.
Finally her dealer recognized the
trouble as one that is common TO
this particular make OF car. An ex-
cessive amount Of water pump pack
ing had been used SO that the packing
nut was forward far enough TO be
practically against the timing gear
cover. Water, leaking past the pack
ing. worked out along the shaft, was
prevented from running out Of the
motor because Of an accumulation OF
rust. and so found its way into the
timing gear case. Here it easily mixed
with the oil.
At this time Of year do not be
alarmed If the exhaust Of the car
sounds like a machine gun in action
when you are going downhill. It Will
merely be a tip to have the carburetor
adjusted for richer mixture. Some
times at this season the mixture will
be Just on the border line, causing
the exhaust to indulge in series Of
mild explosions early in the morning
or after sundown, when the tempera-
ture drops.
II you see the fender-wen spares
sticking up in the air do not take
this to mean that new vogue Is under
way. Spares have no business being
so conspicuous. Looking the situation
over carefully you will note that these
awkward looking spares are found on
cars of short wheelbase. Because
there Is not enough space between the
front wheels and the running boards
the spares have to be set up at an
ungainly height On longer cars they
are most attractively and conveniently
placed low in the fender wells.
The idea that nothing serious can
happen in cold weather If the fan belt
breaks is a view at least one woman
motorist won't hold in the future.
When the belt of her car broke 1t
ripped off the lower water hose con-
nection to the radiator. Result: Loss
Of all the anti-freeze.

Central America, It's termini being
Nuevo Laredo, Mexico, across the Rio
Grande from Laredo. Tex. and Pam
anna City. About half Of its entire
length Of $500 miles lies In Mexico
and the rest in the other six coun-
tries. A complete reconnaissance sur.
vey Of the southern half Of the route
has been made by the Bureau OF Public
Roads. The bureau is making further
surveys, including location survey
for the final section OF the road In
Panama, leading to the Costa Rican
border. The necessary personnel for
the new operations has been engaged
and field work has begun on bridge
surveys and estimates. Work on the
northern part OF the highway will be
done by the Mexican government.
Some political observers report that
the action Of q Democratic Governor
and Legislature in increasing New
York States gasoline tax this year
without even hearing was equally
responsible with aversion to New
Deal policies for sweeping the Re-
puolicans back into control of the
Assembly in the recent election.
The Republicans. now holding 90
seats TO 68 held by Democrats, won
out particularly in the populous coun.
ties OF Monroe. Erie and Oneida. The
increased gasoline tax was a leading
issue in Monroe County. where the
Rochester Automobile Club conducted
a fierce campaign against all Demo-
cratic candidates for the Assembly,
the fight becoming so bitter that sew
eral Democratic county and city off,
cials resigned from club membership.
Monroe elected five Republicans and
three Democratic assemblymen. Erie
County elected six Republicans and
four Democrats, while Oneida elected
three Republicans and two Demo-
Gratis.
Republican leaders adopted the gas
oline tax increase as an issue early In
the campaign, holding the Democrats
responsible for janmine through legis-
lation despite thousands of protests
from taxpayers. 1t was charged that
the additional ! cent per gallon tax
not only was continued, but the tax
rate increased to 4 cents, and the bulk
Of the revenue diverted from highways
to general State expenses. Gov. Leh-
man was accused Of forcing highway
users. who constitute only a fraction
OF the States population, to pay the
major cost Of government. while at
the same time the roads for which they
were paying were neglected. 1t was
brought out that while the State has
been collecting approximately $780,
100000 q year in special additional
motor taxes, the bulk Of 1t coming from
the tax on motor fuel, only Q small
amount was spent upon highways.
Senator George r. Fearon Of syra-
cuse and other Republican leaders,
during the campaign charged the
Democratic Governor and legislature
with contributing to highway fatalities,
blaming an increase In highway acct
dents upon failure to keep highways
in line with trafic needs.
Republican legislators trom the first
unanimously opposed both the III
crease in the tax rate and the diver
sion OF revenues and temporarily were
supported by few upstate Democrats.
It was said that these legislators, how
ever, were whipped into line by Demo-
cratic leaders despite pleas their con-
stituents strongly opposed the In
crease and any change in their posi-
ton would jeopardize their chances OF
reelection.

Kreisler on Technique.
WHEN musical Washington hea,

WHEN musical Washington hears
w Fritz Kreisler, with the Phila-
delphia Orchestra on December 10th,
they will hear the performance Of the
worlds greatest violinist. His opinion
on technique is quite worth hearing.
Kreislef says Of musical technique
that it is not O matter Of muscular
development. but of mental control.
He states. for example, that he has
often memorized q concerto on q
train, and played it before an au-
dience with little or no preliminary
practice.
1T is like aiming pistol" the
great violinist explained. "You take
aim, you cock the pistol. you put
your finger on the trigger. A slight
pressure of the finger and the shot
is fired. Now the same thing applies
to technique on an instrument. You
think before, and not merely as. OF
after, you fire the note. Your muscle
is prepared, the physical conception
is perfectly clear in your mind-a
fash Of will power and your effect is
achieved. But to rely on muscular
habit, which so many do, in tech
niuue is fatal. A little fatigue. a
little nervousness, the muscle be-
wildered and unable to direct itself,
and who are you? Technique Is q
matter of the BRAIN"
This, then, is only one Of the keys
to the exquisite Kreisler technique.
That and his wonderful memory are
two attributes which are only sec
ondary to the interpretive power OF
this great artist.

So that airplane designers and con-
structors may have time in which TO
lay their plans, the National Air
Races Of Cleveland, the organization
which will be in charge Of the 1885
national air races, has announced a
schedule Of officially sanctioned races
to be flown during next years meet,
September 8, 4, and s at Cleve-
land.
The program. it was announced, em-
bodies several innovations and fea-
lures Of genuine Importance to all
departments Of the aircraft industry"
A minimum Of $4,000 in cash prize
money will be available. it was an.
nounced, and commitments were made
for races in various cubic-inch classi.
fcations.
This, 1t was explained. will permit
period Of approximately 10 months
for the design. construction and test.
ing Of the 1886 racing aircraft. The
entire program is intended to encour-
age the design and construction Of
new types Of racing airplanes in the
several cubic-inch classes for 1886
competition.
The problem of dealing with pri-
vate flying in the vicinity of heavily
Travelled airways and at major air.
ports has been the subject of an un.
usually interesting conference at the
Bureau Of Air Commerce during the
past week
The bureau started the ball rolling
with the PRONUNCIATION Of a tentative
order restricting thick weather and
instrument flying by private airplanes
within Is miles Of an airway or air
transport terminal. The conference
was held for an informal discussion
Of the regulation and of the general
subject.
Anticipating a conference with per-
haps half dozen representatives Of
the aeronautical industry, Bureau Of
Air Commerce officials we're surprised
to flnd representatives Of the major
air lines. Of the major Eastern air
ports, of the charter flying services
and Of the sportsman pilots waiting
to be heard.
There appeared TO be general agree.
ment that regulation of private flying
in the vicinity Of the air transport
arteries and terminals is a present
necessity and the discussion resolved
itself into consideration Of detail. The
results Of the meeting will be boiled
down into essential regulations, which
probably will become the law Of the
skies in the not far distant future.
