tons bill to create q staff Of
michigan Omen" reached the
floor of the senate today bearing
approval Of the senate judiciary
committee.
The measure would permit
Rushton to employ from civil
service rolls an unlimited num-
Der of investigators who would
have police powers. In addition
they would have authority to adj
minister oaths and they would
be relieved of the duty of testi-
flying in court or opening their
reports except with the permis-
sion of the attorney general.
Rushton has indicated he de-
sired the force primarily to pre-
serve order in industrial dis
putes.
STATE POLICE OPPOSED
Friends of the state police,
who report they fear it will lead
to conflicts with that body of Of
ficers, were expected to fight
Rushton's measure.
Four major revisions Of the
state elections procedure are
embodied in bills presented TO
the senate today for adoption.
One would implement . new
constitutional amendment per-
hitting officials to halt fraud in
the circulation of petitions to
place constitutional m z n d.
ments, initiated legislation and
referenda on the ballot.
The enabling act would give
the state board Of canvassers au-
thority to determine the validity
of signatures on such petitions
and to prosecute offenders. The
petitions must be signed by

THE STORY OF THE WEEK
St. Bartholomew Win Class 3
At Diocesan Track Meet
Ed. Harmon PAGES Team To Victory

st. Bartholomew Church track team
won one of the four class titles at the
23rd Annual Diocesan Track Meet
which was held on Washington's birth
day at the Boston Y.M.C.A. The VIC
tory was the more noteworthy con-
sidering the fact that the team was the
smallest among the % competing.
Trinity Church, of Boston, success
fully defended their Meet Champion
ship as they took one class and scored
enough points in the others to top the
rest of the field.
HARMON WINS DASH
Concentrating their efforts in classes
8 and the st. Bartholomew contin-
gent waged hard fight for top honors
as they scored points in both.
Ed Harmon and his brother, Albert,
finished one, two, in the dash to give
their cause a good start with eight
points. Albert was the first to show
the many competitors and spectators
that st. Bartholomew was very much
in the meet as he came laundering
down the boards to win his trial heat
in the As yards dash. No sooner had
his name been announced over the am
plifier as the winner when his brother,
Edward, came swiftly down the track
moving farther ahead with every stride
to break the tape good four yards in
front of his nearest competitor.
The semi-finals were but repeti-
ton of the trials as both Harmons won
their heats with ease. So impressive
was Ed in both of his appearances that
he was generally conceded victory in
the final considering a good start and
other things being equal. Most of the
CONSERVATION was whether Albert
would finish right behind him. As the
six fnalists left their mark it was Al

SchOOlbOy Heroes

It's been a long time since Boston
and Cambridge have had sepia duo
of Massachusetts, Schoolboy track
kings like our Jerome Lewis of Rindge
Tech. and Louis Watkins of Mechanic
Arts. We're mighty proud of both
boys and they ought to make some COL
lege keep an eye open wide.
My humble opinion is that Jerry
Lewis and Lew Watkins are both
slated for the very top if they eat their
spinach and obey their coaches as they
have thus far. Both are the same type
of all-around athletes as was Eddie
Digger when he was at Medford High;
both have class, stamina and heart.
Lew and Jerry can both forget the
bad breaks at the 1941 Schoolboy
A.A.U. Championships last week. 1t
probably was "stage fright, anyway.
Our local schoolboys have had an
impression that the boys from out-of-
state were unbeatable. This is being
disproven every day.
When the outdoor season arrives l
believe our local schoolboys are going
to display new track incentive. There's
every reason to do so.

Wash. Omegas
Lose In Hub Game

The Omegas of Washington, were
outlasted in their game with the
Y.M.H.A. Jewels on the holiday at
Memorial High. The game was played
for the benefit of the st. Marks gymna-
SUM fund.
The local team had all it could do to
stay in the contest during the first
half as the Westinghouse took over
an early lead and went on scoring
while displaying a good brand of ball.
The Jewels were not to be denied, how
ever, and the fine physical condition of
the players proved to be the deciding
factor in the victory as the localities
set a blistering pace which ultimately
gave them a well earned victory. The
Omegas, a topnotch fraternal team,
was no match for the Jewels once the
second half got underway. The pace
set by the Y.MH.A. aggregation was
much too fast for the visitors who saw
their lead dwindle and finally succumb
to the fast moving Jewels.
The gymnasium fund, for which the
attraction was presented, benefited as
a representative crowd was on hand.
