SAFETY COUNCIL
IS APPOINTED
BY GOVERNOR
Council Consists Of Thirty-Nine
Ladies And Gentlemen
Throughout State

Governor Nice has appointed q
Maryland Highway Safety Planning
Council. This Council, consisting of
thirty-nine ladies and gentlemen, is
not to be confused with the Statewide
Citizens Safety Committee, hereafter
to be appointed. The Planning Coun-
Gil is considerably smaller body than
that into which the Statewide Citi-
zens Safety Committee, of necessity,
will develop. The Council will func-
ton along the lines of planning and
mapping out permanent plan of en-
cheering, education, and enforcement,
which, in turn, will be placed in the
hands of the Statewide Citizens SAT-
ETY. Committee, to be appointed by the
Council.
Every lady and gentleman on the
Planning Council has been selected
solely as result of his and her quail
fications in connection with experience
and interest in traffic and all kindred
safety problems, and each and every
one has volunteered his or her service
to the State of Maryland in the seek
ing of a solution of this most vital and
necessary problem affecting every
man, woman and child in Maryland.
The Governor designated Dean s. S.
Steinburg, of the University of Mary
land, to be General Chairman of the
Planning Council, with Mr.. Folsom B.
Taylor and Mr.. John r. Sherwood as
Vice Chairman. Mr.. Robert w.
Beach, Jr., was appointed secretary.
The Council comprises such men,
bers as, Albert S. Cooke, State Super
intendent of Education; Charles J.
Butler, Welfare Director, Easton, Md;
Mrs. William M. Bauernschmidt. of
Baltimore; Herbert J. O'Conor, Attor-
ney-General; Howard Bruce, Balti-
more; and others.

SEWING ROOM NEEDS
MORE OPERATORS HERE

BY advertisement in another column
it will be seen that the sewing room
is in need of more workers. Mr.. Ros-
enbloom has put in a new table, and
now is in need Of operators.
Those desiring work would do well
to take note of the advertisement,
since steady employment and good
wages are promised. This establish
ment has served real purpose in this
community, and now that it seems to
desire a larger force, it is up to the
people to keep it going. It's removal
would be a real loss.

FRANCHISE IN
SHORE LEAGUE
New York National League Pur-
chases 1t Only To Transfer
1t To Milford, Del.
HARRY S. RUSSELL THE
NEW HEAD OF LEAGUE

At a meeting of the Eastern Shore
League of Base Ball, held in Easton on
Sunday last, the removal of the Girls
field franchise to Milford, Delaware,
was ratified by vote of clubs to 2.
This franchise was purchased by the
New York National League Club, and,
so far as the Crisfield fans were in
formed, it was thought it would re-
main in the Somerset City, and great
things had been expected when the
1888 season opened. Big improve
ments in the playing field were con-
templated as well as better material
for the diamond contest.
It was, therefore, big surprise and
a matter of deep regret to ball lovers
in Crisfield and vicinity when the
news of the removal came. A dele
cation attended the meeting in an eff
fort to prevent the transfer, but it
did not avail. Terry, of the Giants,
saw larger financial returns from the
Milford location, and, of course, stood
for the change.
Pocomoke fans regret the passing
of the Crsfield Club almost as much
as their neighbors do. With that club
removed from the roster, much inter-
esting local competition goes with it..
There were loyal fans in both POGO
moke and Crisfield who reveled in
the spicy games put up by these two
teams, and the stands were well filled
in both cities when these boys crossed
bats. There is no team in the League
that drew as well in Pocomoke as did
Crisfield and all Pocomoke ball fiends
are loath to see the change. All POGO
moke can do now is to give the Som
erset crowds a cordial invitation to
come here and root for the local club.
At the same meeting last Sunday,
the resignation of President J. Thorn
as KILLER was received and accepted,
KILLER assigning ill-health as the reas-
on for his decision not to serve long
er. His many friends regretted to
hear of such reason for his step. but
they feel that he has taken it as a
precautionary measure and not for
any serious indisposition.
Harry S. Russell, an official of the
League, was elected to the office va
Gated by Kibler. Mr.. Russell is ma
tive and resident of Chestertown, and
is a newspaper man, editor of "The
Enterprise" He is graduate of
Washington College, was one of its
foremost athletes, and is thoroughly
informed on athletic procedure. He is
well qualified and should make an ex-
cellent Chief Executive.
Promoter Ehlers, of the Pocomoke
Club was in this city this week, but
did not have much information to hand
out, at this early date. He will of
course, be back next season; he did
not commit himself as to any future
management of the team. With the
removal of the Crisfield club from this
lower section of the Peninsula there
should be larger territory from
which Pocomoke should draw, and e.
very effort should be made to attract
it. No doubt Mr.. Ehlers appreciates
this and will make every effort to
profit by the opportunity. a..

Chicago Plans

CHICAGO, Feb. 6-The old
hocus-pocus shrouded the plans
for the Louis-Braddock champion
ship battle, supposedly all set for
Comiskey Park here, June %.
The hocus-pocu6 was supplied
in New York by Jimmy Braddock
who, according to reports received
here, objected to ComiSkey Park
as the site of the battle and in
sisted he would not appear in
Chicago Monday to formally sign
articles for the benefit of the news
reels and photographers.
j. Louis ComiSkey said today
that he had not entered into any
negotiations for the rental of the
park. But Lionel Levy, Mike
Jacobs architect, stayed in Chi
Cago when Jacobs departed by
plane for New York yesterday, re
portedly to conclude a survey Of
the ball park which, he said,
could be made to accommodate d
crowd of $4,000.
At the same time it was learned
Sheldon Clark, president of the

Hawking, Horseback Sport,
Popular With Hungarians

Hawking is done mostly on horse
back, and much the same sort Of
terrain is required as for following
hounds. The plains of Hungary,
where the country is Just rough
enough to be exciting and where
birds are numerous, is favorable for
hunting, and that doubtless is one
Of the reasons that falconry has new
er died out there, observes a writer
in the New York Times.
Training the birds, either those
born in captivity or captured hawks
(these are the "haggards'D, is an
important and difficult part of prep
aration for hunting. The hawks are
taught at first to follow a lure
very short distance, and the lure
comes to mean food to them. Later
on the live prey takes the place of
the lure. Hawks are taken out hood
ed and leashed on the wrist Of the
mounted huntsman, and cast off
when the game is sighted. Then the
trained bird mounts until it is a
speck in the sky. Then she stoops
that is, launches herself like a.
plummet from high above to strike
the prey. The hunter follows the
pursuit to be in at the death and re-
capture the hawk.
