Borough Beaten SI.2I as Higgins Sets New
 World Record

Naugatuck, Jan. T-The Nauga- tuck Y. M. c. A. swimming team journeyed to Providence Saturday and swan the Providence Boys Club. The boys were defeated bl to 2i but they were especially proud to have had 'the opportunity |. to swim this team which is nationally known. This Providence team is regularly on the schedules of both Harvard and Yale and is tho only team other than college teams that is on their schedules. The provi- dence team contains men who swim close to worlds records--ln fact m Saturdays meet worlds record was broken.
 Naugatuck should feel proud of It's remarkable swimming team and great praise should be given to Sey- rnour 5quires and Alex Sullivan for their share in developing such praiseworthy team.
 John Higgins of Providence set Q new American record for 100 yard breast stroke. The time was i:03. This is also an unofficial worlds record because onV 3 timers were used. The old standard was i:04 l-b set by Spence of the New York A. c. in 1883. Higgins displayed tremendous power and left the others far behind. soltysiak of Providence finished second and Fratesi of Naugatuck third. Nauga- tuck took first place in the i60 yard relay which prevented c com plete whltewashing. The only other race which was close was the 100 yard back stroke. Poscavage of the locals was even with Stanhopc until ho smashed Into Q wall on . turn. Stanhopo picked up 3 yards here and held the lead throughout and finished in the fast time of 1903 4-b. Stanhope is tho Nntion- nj InterGcholastic champion.
 Chrostowsli, holder of many rec- ords, won the 70 yard free style and 100 yard free style. Bendlcr, Naugatuck's star, wasn't far behind him in the 100 yard free style. Nlx- on finished third in the 70 yard free style. Providence won the dive and the medley relay. This waB undoubtedly tho finest club the local "" has ever faced in its history. The Naugatuck boys all swam good enough to beat the average "" Of Boys Club team but Providence Boys Club has too many nationally known swimmers who are nIl close t0 worlds records.

Gov. Ehringhaus
Invited To Farm
Meeting

Governor J. c. B. Ehringhaus
and Governor-elect Clyde R. Hoey
have been invited to address a far
mers' meeting to be held Saturday,
December 5, in the Mcdowell
County courthouse at Marion.
Farmers from 20 western North
Carolina counties are being asked
to attend the meeting, which will
be held in connection with a visit
to the state highway stone crushing
and lime grinding plant a few miles
north of Marion.
Interested farmers or business
men from other counties who can
be there will be welcomed also, said
John W. Goodman, assistant direc-
tor of the State College extension
service. The program will start at
1880 o'clock Saturday morning.
Lime is needed on most western
North Carolina farms, especially
where triple superphosphate is being
applied to the soil, Goodman said
and This plant will make agricul-
tural lime available to that area at
a reasonable cost.
DR.. R. Y. Winters, director of
the N. C. Agricultural Experiment
Station, will speak on lime and its
use in agriculture, ]. c.. McAmis,
director of the agricultural division
of the IVA, is expected to speak
briefly.
S. T. Henry, farmer living near
Spruce Pine who has worked with
the state highway and public works
commission in developing the lime
plant, will be chairman of the
meeting. Official of abe extension
service will also be present.
The special invitation to attend
the meeting has been extended to
farmers in Henderson, Polk, Bum
combe, Rutherford, Cleveland,
CASTOR, Lincoln, Catawba, Burke,
Mcdowell, Yancey, Mitchell, Ave
ry. Caldwell, Alexander, Iredell,
Wilkes, Watauga, Ashe, and Hay
wood Counties.

Washington, however, thinks he
has solved the problem. At the Pat
ent Centennial he showed an engine
run by sunpower which may point
the way toward conservation of
fuel when the earth's supplies of
coal and oil are exhausted.
Nothing could be more useful
than costless power. l hope DR.. Alb
bolt is on the right track.
GLARE under control
One of the most promising of the
new inventions shown at the Pat
ent Centennial is a method of tax
ing the glare out of automobile
headlights. Scientists have long
known that light can be "polariz-
ed'-that is, so reflected hat the
light beams are parallel and go in
one direction only. But all previous
methods of doing this have been
too expensive and cumbersome for
general use.
The new device is the result of
years of work in two great indus
trial research laboratories. 1t is a
simple transparent sheet of a new
kind of material which can be used
instead of glass in motor headlights
and will project their beams in a
straight line ahead instead of into
the eyes of approaching drivers.
This one invention alone, when
it comes into general use, will be
worth untold money for its value
as a preventer of motoring acct
dents.
