 Speedway
 Drivers of cars on Sheffield street are travelling at such a terrific rate of speed along that thoroughfare that one standing on the side, watching them whiz by could eas- fly imagine he was watching the George Vanderbilt Cup race at Roosevelt Raceway, Westbury, R. T., but the circumstances surrounding these daily races are not the same, because Shefaeld street is drawing many children these days, on their way to Launden's pond for swim, and their lives are much endan- gered by these reckless drivers who go racing up and down the street.
 Many parents are rightfully wor- ried over the existing conditions, and wish all drivers of cars along this road, where children so fre- quently walk, would operate their vehicles in @ manner more in &C., cordance with the law.
