Safety Week Governor Cross Issues Statement on States Observance of
 Program.

The State of Connecticut, for three centuries, has been a source of pride to its people. We have gone steadily about our business and at the same time have made our state an increasingly better place to live in. Not always has the task been easy, but our efforts for the most part have been suc- ceSSful.
 In recent years a problem has arisen which still awaits satis- factory solution. This problem is the situation created by the rapid increase in the use of motor vehi- cles on our streets and highways, with the unfortunate but conse- Quent suffering and loss of life be- cause of accidents.
 The automobile has become an important factor in daily life. Changes and improvements have been made in our highways to facilitate the movement of our modern complex traffic. Better control methods are the constant concern of our police and other officials. High standards have been set in the agencies concerned with these problems, and pro- gressive legislation has been enacted by the General Assembly.
 Notwithstanding these improve ments, there is still an unWar- ranted number of accidents. have been appalled, by the toll of death. In an effort to lessen this injury to person and destruction of life and property, appointed a com- mission two years ago to study the problems involved and to make recommendations to the General Assembly. Since the appointment of this commission there has beer a decrease in the number of per- sons killed by motor vehicles, but the goal for which we should strive is yet to be reached.
 The Highway Safety Commis- sion, with the cooperation of many agencies actively interested in highway safety, has called & con- ference at Yale University in New Haven on April fourth for the dis cussion of the situation. In sup port of the aims of this conference, I hereby designate the days from April 2 to April g, as Highway Safety Week.
 urge that the problem of safe- ty in all its phases be discussed in our schools, churches, and other places of meeting, in the news papers, by radio and other means of communication, to the end that the people of Connecticut may be- come impressed with the necessity for making the automobile not only convenience and pleasure in travelling but a safe vehicle on our highways. If this can be accom- plished, Connecticut will be a safer as well as a better state.

something to think about beyond their own ailments. He said that he had studied the subject and had found, in the 49 years since he first read Mary Baker Eddy's book, that many claims of the scientists were extravagant and irrational.
 He said that the real Bible has plenty in it about relationship of faith and health and that Mrs Eddy's doctrine is 'an awkward caricature of the original.

 First, the speaker said that Chris tian Science had done some good in a restricted field, but that it constitutes menace in that it is irrational with its claim that there Is no such thing as illness: that it is a moral menace because 1t raises false hopes in the minds of persons seriously, or hopelessly Ill.
 The constructive side, he said, is that of teaching persons to over- come imaginary ills, giving them

 Tribes Top Hearts

St. Ann's A. A. dropped another eart-breaking contest in the last minute last night when they met the Raymond Hillies in the Wash ington Park League and landed on the short end of 8 27-23 score. The Tribunes won their first game when in the preliminary, they stopped the Sacred Hearts, 35-29.
 Leading 8-2 at the end of the first quarter and in a 12-12 dead- lock at the half, the Frenchies showed promise of breaking the jinx which has followed them since their debut into the park league. At the outset of the third period they tailed three rapid hoops, while the Hillies scored one and 8 foul, to make the score 20-17. A couple of side shots by Bobby Ray placed the hillies in the van, 23-22, however.
 Strong Finish
 After the St. Ann,S tied the score with foul goal by Rousseau, Ray again came through for another score. and Grimm added one to put the game on ice. Ray and Har- nick were the high scorers for the Hillies, while Fisher and Fournier scored all but one of their teams points.
 Bobby Ray, with his all-around playing, treated the fans to the finest exhibition of passing and shooting that has been seen on the hill court.

 He won 9 games and lost g, and his earned run average was 2.O6 per bahe.

 Only three National League pit- cherS, of those who worked n com- plete games finished with an earned run average of less than three. The others were Paul Der ringer, Cincinnati, with 2.93 and 2.95.

 Johnny Wander Nicer, Cincinnati, pitched 21 2-3 consecutive scoreless innings and in those innings were two complete no-hit games. He also had the longeS winning streak of the season, nine straight.

T-SEASON'S BOWL GAMES
 HIT BY WRITER'S
College Becoming Foot. ball Factories" Says
 South Bend Scribe
BY HENRY SUPER

United Press Stan Correspondent)
 New York, Dec. 2O-The nation'a sports editors put post-season bowl football games "on the pan" today in the United Press year-old sport- ing poll.
 Most of them also voted against any annual post-season tournament designed to settle the question oi "who is the national college football champion?"
 Sixty-six per cent of the editors voted "no" to the question: DO you favor the present bowl football games?" Ninety per cent replied in the negative to the question: sDc you favor a three-week elimination tournament to determine the nation- al college football champion"
 Hypocritical
 On the subject of bowl games. eight per cent said they didn't care one way or another while 26 per cent approved them. Most of the editors who favored bowl" games qualified their replise, however, with such statemenes as:
 They are okey if we don't get any more"
 Personally, I dislike the hypoc- risy connected with the games but they do help liven up the sport pages during the dull holiday sea- son."
 Two or three are all right. but too many of them cheapen the sport"
 A post-season tournament struck many editors as a good idea but they were forced" to vote mo" on the question because they felt it was impossible to conduct such a meet ing.
 Besides" said one editor, ''there,d still be many arguments over who to invite to such a tournament, and the fighting would continue Iona after the tournament had ended. Anyway, it's more fun just speculate ing on the national champion."
 Big City Ad
 On the subject of bowl games many writers were extremely bitter.
 T favor them if they pick repre- sentative teams" said Pat Moulton Of the Mobile Press-Register. "I'm not in favor of them if they ara purely 6 medium for advertising a certain city or certain section of the country"
 There should boone bowl game a year. possibly with the site chang ing each season. Then the game would really mean something" said Ted Former of the Yonkers, N. Y, Herald Statesman.
 Educational institutions are fast becoming football factories and all the kids get out of these games is g free ride and some glamor," argued Jack Ledden of the South Bend Tribune.
