Isenmann, secretary of the National Duckpin Bowling Congress, was in troduced and he in turn expressed his thanks for being invited to the Chase alleys again. In closing he said he will remember Ducky Rich mond who defeated him last year. AStor Clark, No. bowler in U. S., and Sd. Blakeney of Washington teamed up against Nick Tronsky, Connecticut No. l bowler, and our own Wee Willie Tato in a doubles match, which the boys from the South won. Then Bill Tato and Joe Harrison rolled singles which was called after two games sa the crowd were starting to step on the alleys where the boWlers were perform ing. Tato had a big lead when it was called. Astor Clarke's form and performance pleased the Chase en- ployes, many of whom never seen him in action before.
 President Orsini then introduced James Conlong, general superinten- dent of Chase Rolling Mills and Chase Metal Works who presented all the bowlers with Chase prod uct, to remind them of this great night.

 Then, too, Hughey was fast and alert base runner and one of the best outfielders in the business ,. :. but that isn't all it was he who made the American league pos- sible when the junior cir cult was born at the turn of the century, Duffy became its recruit ing agent and lured away from the National league such immortalS as Larry Jajoie, Cy Young, Ed Della hanty and Jimmy Collins
 Anyone who has done all those things for baseball certainly should have his name inscribed in the hall at Cooperstown Hughey is still active in baseball, operating baseball school for youngsters at Fenway park-home of the Red Sox.

Editor:
On the 18th of Sept. one year

bachelor, Mr.. Martin Brown, of
your city. After a lovely trip
through the East and to our ma
tons capitol, l arrived in your city
with my husband one year ago to-
day. 1 am happy to say that 1 have
experienced many happy moments
during my first year as a resident
in this beautiful Northwestern
commonwealth.
am beginning to get acquainted
with the people and the customs of
your community. I am also happy
to say that I have observed that
there are many social and church
organizations in the community
and that some of these organiza-
tons appear to be making some
progress. On the other hand I OBJ
served some of them seem merely
to be marking time.
While it is not a matter of i'm
portance, but the author is a for
mer resident of the southwest's
most cosmopolitan and leading
city, st. Louis. 1t is also needless
for me to make mention of the fact
that in this beautiful city are to be
found some of the most progressive
religious institutions comprised of
our people in America. Notwith-
standing the opportunity offered to
the members of my race in Mime

tanning to educational and political
matters. 1t appears to this writer
that so many Of these worth while
opportunities are never taken Sc
riously by the majority of our peo-
pie.

tiers and things pertaining to the
social and religious and educational
progress of my people.

Poetic Thoughts
Safety First
BY MORRIS GIBBS, Sr.

Safety first is the proper sense of precautiOn
That individuals should hold a nation
To preserve ideals and integrity right here
Is playing safe by keeping our heads clear.
Safety first in how drive
Is very essential if want to keep alive,
For speed or lack of caution only sends
Us to the hospital or in jail ends
Safety first in playing the game square,
Without any buster undue fair,
For folks will see just how it's done,
And if it's not right there's need to run.
Safety first is the only way to live
Do your work right your employer can give
You chance to progress, with security yours,
By protecting what you have and opening old Sores
In these times of strife and struggle,
Let US keep out of any foreign huddle,
For experience has shown how it ends
That this democracy is the who spends.
