banded to include nearly every
outdoor summer sport, and the
kids are clamoring for more. The
fine thing about such games as
tennis and golf-and we're coming
to the latter-is that their partici-
patton can long be enjoyed. Oh, the
back and legs, getting stiff, will
slow down the most ardent Of ten
mis- fans, but look at King Gustav
of Sweden-more than 70, the be-
loved Scandinavian monarch still
swings a mean racket. The games
are individual, the equipment not
costly, and they don't require a
team for playing.
I'd like to see concerted effort
to get more courts in this city.
Nearly every surrounding town has
better tennis facilities than Sank
Centre. Here the two existing
courts are widely spread, and
players bunch on one or the other.
In Glenwood several courts are
maintained In the park all nicely
grouped. In Alexandria courts are
grouped, lighted for night playing.
Here they charge ten cents an
hour for their use, and It's work.
ing right smoothly. Long Prairie
has two cement courts maintained
on the school grounds. Now no one
is asking for cement courts nor
lights. Cost Of constructing courts
with clay is a negligible factor, and
the long hours Of usefulness these
provide are immeasurable. I wish
you Councilmen would go to the
Library court any day between
dawn and dark, and you'll see
what mean. One more court IN
town Is what the lads need. The
older players can go to the Coun-
try Club to play.
Two weeks remain of the
Harvey regime In the recrea~
tiOnal program. In the past
six the program has enlarged
to include baseball, swimming,
golf, tennis, ldttenball. and
others. It's q remarkable ad-
vancement, and city with
such cooperation from the
school on this program has
done itself proud. When Mr..
and Mrs. Harvey end their 8
weeks period, certain activities
will be maintained by the
WPA leaders, Ray Steir and
Clarence Dickson. Hundreds
of heads have turned out for
these sports, and kids have
found profitable hours in the
summer school.
You can talk all you want to
about improving your golf game,
but there's one fellow who has shot
some remarkable rounds this sum-
mer in his first time out. He's Bill,
of the Country Club Tavern, and
his scores, as reported, are as

pulled in with score in the high

Truey we say. But listen. In his

Wage Legislation Is to Be Pressed
Chairman of House Com mittee Makes Predic-
 tion About Congress

WASHINGTON, April 15.-Rep- resentative William Connery Jr., Massachusetts, Chairman of the House Labor Committee, flatly pre- dicted Congress would enact new labor laws as result of the Wag- IIler Act decision.
 Connery said he favors the 3O- hour week for all industry and be- lieves there will be legislation pro- yiding for minimum wages and maximum hours and abolition of child labor.
 The first legislation probably will be President Roosevelt's favored bill enactihg little MIRA for the textile industry.
 John L. Lewis said he would op- pose legislation requiring the incor- poration of labor unions, which would make the unions financially liable for acts. W
 Lewis added that Congress, in their resolution condemning sit down strikes, company unions and industrial espionage, admirably straddled the situation"

ROASTING A CHICKEN

Even the housewife who is ex- perienced in selecting chickens req lizes the importance of buying them from a reliable dealer Because it is the chickens which have been properly fed, cared for, killed and dressed that have the best flavor when they're cooked
 There are four major classifca- tions into which chickens may be divided. They are CD chickens fol roasting or baking t2) "broilers, (3) flyers" and (4. chickens fol stewing.
 i The best chicken for roasting ol baking is a plump hen which weighs from three and half tc five pounds-or bit more. Il should have clear yellow skin, de cidedly plump breast, back ant thighs, and fat which is evenly dis /, tributed all over the body.
 Tn selecting chicken for roast ing I always beware of long, thin rangy legs, blush color, bruised skin and long, coarse, black hairs since they usually denote flow that is not first-class.
 Singe It We'll
 In preparing my chicken fol roasting I first singe it well ano then pick out the pinfeathers witt my fingers and sharp knife. Then I clean, wash and rinse lit thoroughly and fill it with stuff fling. (Although some housewive. prefer to add the giblets to the stuff. fling. I always save the mfor gravy.)
 I allow about 30 minutes fol each pound for roasting and bastt the fowl every 20 minutes or so Generally serve it with plain ol wild rice, a tart jelly or spicee fruit, a fruit or vegetable salad anc a gelatin or frozen dessert.
 l Two other types of chickens be. sides the roasting chicken art "broilers' and "fryers" The frs weighs from one and a half to two pounds. while the second weigh. from two to two and a half pounds Either are very young chicken, which may be broiled, fried or sau. ted Cooked in a small amount O. lfat).
 How To Pick Chicken
 The skin on each should be cream colored and smooth, the legs smootl and short and the claws sharp anc pointed. Pinfeathers or a ligh lfuzz and breast-bone that is pli able when it is pressed with tn, fingers are all good indications O Ia young chicken.
 Slowing chickens weigh iron four to six pounds or more and ar, available throughout the year. The, require long, slow cooking in wa . ter and are often regarded as tn best type of chicken to buy. Their stock is delicious in sour escalloped mixtures or stews. Thei fat often may be substituted fo butter in cooking. And their mea may be used in all sorts of com !, sbinations salads, a la king mix lures, pot pies, souffles, chicke

On the Way Out

We have made many predictions in the last ten years. about tree conservation. Fortunately we have become nation of outdoor lovers, so much so that any pro- gram designed to improve the great out doors and make it available for the pub lie is received with open arms. Every so often something crops up that makes us wonder if communities are tree minded Right now Bridgeport is enjoy ing an inter-department battle in which the Park Department is warning with the Public Works Department.
 The Park Department is seeking to save old trees that might be considered as just so much fuel by the Public Works De- partment if new street or sidewalk has to be built. Destruction of trees, many of them valuable due to their age and magnificent branch spread has occurred in all big cities that have grown as re- suit of other means than careful plan- ming. Right here in Waterbury we have watched trees sacrificed in the interests of progress.
 Let it be said, though, that Water buryS officials have been considerate of our old elmS. They have always been given the best of care and sacrificed only when nothing else could be done. We have long contended that in any con- munity where 1t is necessary to cut down trees, particularly ones that have attained full growth, new ones should be planted to make up for the loss. Plant two trees in place of the one that is cut down and the generations to come will never be- moan the lack of foresight on the part of those that came before them.

sterilized. They are necklace for the baby and wristband for the mother to be placed on the instrument tray in the delivery room and locked on mother and child before they are separated. In each lock is a non-detachable key to the other lock, that opens like the blade of knife. Only the key from the mothers wriStband will lock or unlock the baby's necklace, and vice versa. ...r
 "These interlockers are infallible," says the inventor. "Each set is different from any other and is recognized by the number on the face of the interlocker." A maternity hospital should have as many interlockerS as 1t has bedS AS a matter of fact there are very few mix-ups of infants considering the number of mothers and babies. Yet there are enough instances of questioned identity to make the doctors invention welcome one.

No New Banks

From time to time stories are heard by word of mouth or may be seen in the press of the state to the effect that some of the closed banks in Connecticut may be reorganized and reopened as soon as the State Bank Commissioners control of them ends. That this is quite unlikely may be seen in recent statement issued by State Bank Commissioner Walter Per- ". This statement was contained in a letter to Leo T. Crowley, chairman of the FDIC, who was seeking data on bank eX- pansion.
 Incidentally legislation passed in re- cent years is responsible, in Commission CT Perry's remarks, for the slight chance of new banks being organized or old ones reopened. There are stringent require ments now on the amount of capital necessary for formation of new bank. They are among the most rigid require ments in the nation and would seem to freeze in" the existing banks and freeze out" contemplated institutions.
 In his comment Commissioner Perry said among other things, we are not anxious to have more banks. ." This is not rash statement for a public off, cial, but a very sane one in view of pres ent-day banking conditions. If the pres ent institutions are capable of caring for the needs of the communities in which they are located there can be no vital req son for new banks starting operations. We should say that such stand would in time mean even greater permanency than even now in the banking field.

Lax Political Morals

Perhaps the most discouraging thing
 about the case of Justice Hugo Black and
 the Ku Klux Klan is its revelation ot the
 defective standard of public morality cur
 rent among politicians. A senator ot
 considerable service and distinction MT.
 Black is nominated to the Supreme Court
 and duly confirmed. Then comes the
 charge that he was, and still is quail
 fled member of the Klan. Immediately
 a whole host of brother politicians come
 forward to give testimony on the case, pro and con- and in all of their talk you , can notice one peculiar thing.
 . They joined the Klan, many of these men, not because they believed in it or 7 felt that its policies and ideals were sound, but simply because it looked like the polite !: thing to do; and they assume that NY. Black joined 1t, If he did join 1t, for the {. same reason. That is to say that accord {. ing to the prevailing code in politics, :, candidate for office may join any group . under the sun and subscribe to the most {. fantastic of creeds without actually com hitting himself to anything, If he has . reason to believe that fairly substantial 1: block of his constituents are interested. . It is taken for granted that he will do {. such things with his fingers crossed; that  , fraternity, club or political group, means . nothing more than vague gesture or rood will
 {. It is precisely. this widespread accept . ance of lax, eaSy-going way of dealing . with things which ought to be matters of definite conviction that Is so discour- . aging. Now the Klan, in the days when It had its health, advocated most rigid and uncompromising set of principles . No man could be neutral about 1t. You .s advocated or you actively disbelieved {: in them. If you were man of honor-as non-politicians understand the word you could not conceivably pretend to be- lieve in them when you actually did not believe.
 All of which makes some of these politicians remarks about the Black case almost incredible. Why, they say, if Black
 joined the Klan, he did 1t just because
 everybody was doing 1t; he didn't believe in the Klars program-in fact, he was d good friend to the Catholics and Jews in his state. We all joined the Klan in those days, and 1t didn't mean thing Which is where they are wrong. It did
 mean something. It meant that in the
 world of politics we have developed a
 moral code which would shame a Botany Bay exile; that the men who make pro-
 fession of seeking and holding public office
 have built up an atmosphere in which the
 very nature of truth and simple decency
 get lost to view. That such an atmos-
 phere exists is even more diSheartening
 than the prospect that we may get a
 Supreme Court justice who holds pass port in the Invisible Empire.
