Rockville TOm-Cats
Howl Again

That new baseball team, the
Rockville Tom Cats, won another
victory Sunday, when they whipped
Germantown at Welsh Field 7-6,
before a crowd of some 10 specta-
tors, 3 from Rockville and 10 from
Germantown. Due to a small turn
out of players, as well as fans,
Rockville had to lend George Lech-
lider to Germantown as third
baseman. Not only did he do a
swell job of fielding, but batted in
two runs which almost helped
beat his own team.
The Tom Cats were trailing be-
hind most of the game. At the end
of the seventh inning the score
was 60 in favor of Germantown;
bat in the eighth Arthur Wood
ward batted in the 3rd and 4th
runs and the next round saw
Charles Woodward knock in one
V lille Slugger Booty Wilson batted
in the winning run after Woodward
had scored with the tying run on a
fielder's choice.
Next Sunday the Tom Cats will
play in Gaithersburg and all other
Sundays will play at Welsh Field
when it is not in use by the town
team. The team would certainly
appreciate some support from the
Rockville baseball enthusiasts.
They have a good club and play
some mighty good games. At the
end of the regular season they
challenge the town team to a game
and promise to give them tough
battle.

FORMER JUSTICE
 OF PEACE IS HELD
Notary Public Also Under Arrest at New London
 for Fraud

New London. Conn, Aug. 8.-CUP) A former justice of the peace and a notary public were held for crim- inal superior court today on charges of certifying to referendum petitions which contained the names of scores of dead persons.
 Police Court Judge John G. Me- Gary found probable cause in the cases of Harry Gordon, former justice and Perry T. Shafner, notary public, and bound them over to the September term of the high court.
 Two others, whose names ap- peared as circulators of the peti- tions, were acquitted. They were Ambrose CaSsara and Mrs. Ida Lit- insky, accused of perjury.
 The petitions were circulated as result of a dissention in the Ocean Beach park board to award an architectural contract. A majority favored contract for $60,000 while the minority held out for $47,5C0. The city council upheld the larger amount.
 A petition was presented, contain ing the names of ten per cent of the electorate, calling for the coun- cil to rescind its action in favor of the smaller sum.
 Another petition demanded the council repeal an ordinance requir- ing the city to take over the beach property for park purposes, on Aug '. When both petitions were checked they were found to contain narles copied from tomhstones in Cedar Grove cemetery. The arrests re- suited.

When an emergency arises, the

When an emergency arises, the American people act.
 When an epidemic strikes, the nation mobilizes to conquer 1t.
 When flood, fire or hurricane roar across the country, millions of dollars and trainloads of food and clothing pour into the stricken area.
 If an enemy invaded our shores, every one of us would rush to the defense.
 Today we are faced with a na- tional emergency as great as any of those-greater, in fact, because 1t is less spectacular and arouses less alarm.
 This emergency is the rising traffic toll.
 A lot of us have had the snug idea lately that we had the traf- tic problem whipped. Last year the nation cut its death toll 19 per cent. This year started out the same way.
 Then something happened. We started stepping on the gas and jaywalkin gagain. Accidents shot up. The safety drive faltered, then begged down.
 And In June. the National Safety Council reports, the traffic death toll went up for the first time in 20 months.
 Tn June alone, 2,330 people were killed on streets and highways. Eighty thousand others were in- jured. An the heavy vacation months still are to be heard from!
 Is that an emergency or not?
 Your help is needed-neded just as much as in fire or flood.
 Not your money. Not your time. Not your services.
 Just a little common horse sense when you drive and walk!

Governors Boosting
 "New England Week.
Products of Various States on Display; Baldwin Pays
 Tribute to Skilled Craftsmen of Connecticut

with ingenuity and skilled work manship. Here in Connecticut-in- deed throughout New England-we have the finest workmen in the world and the products of New Eng land industry and labor have na- tion-wide and worldwide market.
 "The week of August 2 to IA has been set aside by the New England council for the expression of our confidence in the future of New England and New England products. I urge the manufacturers, retailers, and working people of our state to cooperate in this week of "New Eng land on Display" to the end that New England and New England products may continue to hold the prestige to which they are so justly entitled"
 Governor vanderbilt's statement follows:
 "The six New England States, working with the New England council, have designated August T. IA as "New England on Display Week." It is planned during this period to bring about the fullest sort of display at all retail outlets of New England goods and prod- ucts.
 'The cooperation of merchants manufacturers, and citizens in gen. eral is asked by the council and the state representatives in order to bring to the attention of our own people, as well as to visitors, the products manufactured and grown here. The New England council estimates that the peak of summer travel will be reached during that week and therefore it will be the best time for this effort.
 Real Value
 "Dr. c. w. Breed, director of the department of agriculture and con- servation, and William s. Allen, chairman of the Rhode Island in- dustrlal rehabilitation commission, have been designated by me as the Rhode Island representatives. I be- speak for them the cooperation of all the business and industrial forces of the state. This project is by no means futile one. It can be of real value, particularly in the im- pression 1t makes on those who are visiting us during that week."
