RiUdl For Silk

Wars may come and wars may
go, but wOman's demand for sheer
stockings goes on forever.
Either on the principle that
they're willing to try anything
once or because of the big build-up
the first public sale of nylon hos
iery in New York City almost
caused traffic jam and did turn
many a shop into a mad house.
Men mingled with the women in
the assault on counters where the
new product was to be purchased.
while the girls selling silk hose
had time on their hands.
For a year public curiosity has
been whetted by rumors and stor-
les of this new DUPONT ersatz
Stores selling the nvlon hose, how
ever, didn't seem to take all the
unofficial claims at their face
value. In fact, signs were display

handling of firearms is vitality
necessary for ones own protection
in war the Military Engineer sug-
gests blishment of shooting
galleries or ranges in all cities
and towns of one thousand persons
or more. The Magazine advocates
that operation of the ranges be
carried on by the Regular Army,
he National Guard and Organized
Reserves.
Some may think that it takes
only few days after being enlist
ID or drafted for a soldier to learn
how to shoot says the magazine.
Unless one begins the use of fire
arms early in life, he seldom ex-
cells. On the battlefield the man
who is so familiar with shooting
that his piece is really part of him
will survive where his less expert
enced companion may fail"
The contention that the prevail
ence of shooting ranges would
make a nation war-minded is dis
posed of by reference to Switzer-
land, where every man, woman
and child knows how to shoot; yet
Switzerland has not had a war
since Napoleon. The Russo-Finnish
war is cited as an example in

Even if no miraculous improve
ment in wear or no great reduc-
ton in price is provided by the
new stockings, the women will
probably fall for them if they are

products - which is something to
think of these days.

Horse d Buggy Mind

Bringing traffic accidents in
VO4VInS pedestrians under control
is d problem that is not entirely
CLe-sided. Without trying to re-
move any of the burden of re-
spJnsibility from the incompetent
Iechless or drunken driver, it is
only fair to point out that many
equestrian injuries and deaths are
Gue to the carelessness of the vic
tins involved.
Enlightening conclusions are
drawn from an analysis of this sit
uation, based on traffic accidents
in Detroit over a twO-year period,
made by the Automobile Club of
Michigan.
In the past the fact that pedes-
trian deaths are far greater
among people over the age of 25
taan under was explained on the
theory that young people are ply
sically more active and mentally
more alert AS proof, satisfies
were advanced to show that traf-
fic hazards for young persons are
almost negligible.
Admitting that this is factor,
the Michigan analysts declare it
is only part of the story and per-
haps not even the most important
part. The greatly increased death
rate from traffic accidents among
people over % years of age is at
tributed chiefly to the horse and
buggy mind" The report states:
There are too many persons
who learned their rules of safety
when the greatest traffic hazard
was the runaway horse" Their
reactions to danger became fixed
in a time when there was little
danger. Now, with perils on every
hand, these minds cannot respond
instinctively."
All drivers are familiar with the
pedestrian who, either from ignor-
ance or misplaced pride, walks
directly and usually with great
show of leisure across his course
regardless of the rules or the con-
ditions at the spot Some pedes-
trians carefully hook the wrong
way; others seem unable to gauge
the speed of an approaching mo-
tor vehicle.
1t is different in the case OF
younger people. They were born
and brought up in the motor age,
and their minds are. tuned to pre-
vailing speeds. The report con-
tinues: Youngsters take more
chances but they can get away
with more. Automobiles are Sec
ond nature to them. Nearly every
youth can drive a car and he
knows how far to co.
Moreover, safety education is
training the new generation to
meet modern traffic conditions
with their faculties alert. Older
people rarely come under this in
fluence, or if they do, assume a
superior attitude toward it. Per-
haps if they knew how great is
the discrepancy between the acct |
dent percentage for those under |
rs and that for the age group
above, they would not be so com
placent.

In view of the news from Europe
there perhaps will be few persons
to disagree with the theory that

After c ecord.brealEiflg string of 10 games without defeat, the New York Rangers lost, 2-1 to the Chica- 90 Black Hawks last night, allowing the Boston Bruins to move back into Q tic for the National Hockey League leadership.
 A victory over Toronto Saturday night made the 18th straight time the Rangers had emerged from the ice undefeated, and brock the for- fner record of l0 set by Montreal's Canadiens i2 seasons ago.
 Instrumental in thwarting the Rangers hopes of extending the string was Chicago 0oalie Paul Goodman, who turned back brilliant scoring shots time after time while his mates hammered home two goals.
 The defeat allowed the Boston Bruins, who scored 4.2 over Montreal to move into the first place tic. Three last period goals broke Up closely contested match in favor of the Bruins.

BETHLEHEM UPSETS
 HOPEVILLE EAGLES

The Bethlehem A. 0. upset the fast Hopeville Eagles in e wild and wooly game here at Memorial hall Saturday night. The Eagles start ed off with a rush, leading the lo- calls e-4 at the end of the first quarter. The second quarter was fast and furious but some nice shots by Eddie Lizdauskas put the A. O. boys very much in the running; the Eagles leadnig by one point at the half. The pep talks by co-coaches Mojaushas and Tinlay during the intermession brought the boys out raring to go for they forged ahead to end the third period 24-20. Tn the last few minutes the visitors got too anxious and Bethlehem scored 16 potts to turn 6 fine game into a rout. E. Lizauswas paced the lo- calls with 13 points while McBurnie led the visitors with 6. We believe Bethlehem made some kind of e record for missing foul shots only making 2 out of 10 attempts.

With the opening of the new high school freshmen league this past week, the total of schoolboy basket ball teams competing under part de- partment supervision, was brought to 23 according to Supt. of Parks James J. Curtin. Those g teams represent a personnel of more than 200 boys. The high school frosh circuit is something new this season, the idea having been decided upon following the success which crowned the frosh baseball league last spring.
 Supt. of Schools Thomas Condon hes sanctioned all of the public school circuits, while the principals are lending their cooperation to the promotion of the teams. In the Cath olic league, the clergy of the various churches as in the past, are giving their personal attention to the youngsters play.

 Tomorrow night, Tuesday, Leav- enworth plays host to strong West Haven club at the Wilby gym. Yet to win game in five starts, the Tech Tigers chances of making West Haven its first victim is not considered too strong as the visitors have a winning combination.

Briggs To Rebuild
 Million Dollar Baseball Club
By CLINTON B. CONGER United Press Stan Correspondent

United Press Stan COfreSpOn0ent)
 Detroit, Jan. IS. (UP)-In his winter home at Miami Beach Wal ter o. Briggs planned by telephone with Detroit Tigers executives today the rebuilding of his million dollar baseball chain.
 Although @ decision by Judge Kenesaw Lands had been expected in a few player cases, his ruling against the club and it's farms and "feedery system was , bombshell.
 Only Walter O. (Spikel Briggs, Jr., Tigers vice-preSident who was in frequent communication with his father, seemed calm over the deci- sion which virtually wrecked their baseball interests and caused an im- mediate loss estimated at more than $500, 900. Pending a final deci- sion by his father, he would not reveal definite plans.
 The five players declared free agents received the news tubilantly. They may resell their services to any professional baseball club and collect 8 bonus of several thousand dollars for signing contract.
 . Several offers and promises to Benny Mccoy, sensational Tiger rookie second baSeman: outfielder Roy Cullenbine and Paul (Dizzy) Trout already had been reported. The other two. pitchers, Lloyd Dietz and Steve Pachunok, have had little major league experience.
 Although no offlcial would predict how long it would take the mil- lionaire automobile. body builder to rejuvenate his baseball resources, 1t undoubtedly will be several years. Many of the 93 players given free- dom were excellent prospects bought with heavy outlay of cash.

The South Finders who were uniformed in their new gold outfits had little trouble in defeating the Holy Manners; but the efforts used by the Holy Manners in cutting down the winners score made the game more exciting. This game was recorded as the eighth win of the season for the South Finders.
 The South Finders led at the end of each quarter with scores of four to three, at intermission nineteen to ten, twenty-six to fourteen at the close of the third period, and closing the game with a thirty-one to seventeen victory.

Torrington took two point lead in the third period and the Garnet could not quite match the play of the New Cityites in the final quarter.
