New Iron Hats
Made Here for
Army Tests

A dome-shaped steel helmet,
which looks like a cross between
a pith helmet and polo hat, is be-
ing manufactured in a Detroit
plant and probably will become
the armys official headgear.
The McCord Radiator and Man.
ufacturing Company is the organ
ization which is turning out an
experimental order of the helmets,
now being tested at the infantry
school. Fort Benning, Ga.
Made according to an army de-
sign turned over to the Detroit
firm two months ago, the helmet
is reported superior in safety and
comfort to the American doughboy
helmet of the World War.
Because of heavier steel the
helmet is said to be more resistant
to penetration.

With Spring at hand the tennis enthusiast begins to inspect his court with more interest than when snow or mud were the highlights. He knows that on the next month or so of preparation depends the condition of the court for the entire seasons play. As the great majority of courts in this country are clay surfaced the United States Lawn Tennis Association offers the follow. ing suggestions for 194l renovation:
 To determine the best treatment 1t is advisable to place the surface material in one of tfour general classes; Excellent Clay: Stiff, CO., hesive material which requires sand- ing to avoid small surface cracks. Fair Clay: That which holds to- gether when wetted and rolled and retains the consolidated condition when dry. Poor Clay: A surface which binds when wetted and rolled but becomes dusty when dry. Hard- pan or Subsoil: which binds only when watered and rolled and powders" deep when dry.
 If no new clay was added the pre-. vious season, 1t is recommended that at least ten yards (equal to about 1-2 inch loose) be spread over each court area of 120 feet by 60 feet. This calculation is based on the Justification of Poor Clay" courts. It may be safely reduced to three yards (screened) for Q ocurt sur- face which was satisfactory the pre- vious season.
 It will require about ten yards of natural clay to produce eight yards of finely screened clay, as an aver age. Live, fresh clay added at the start Is one of the most important factor in preparing a god surface during the playing season.
 Do not permit any walking, wheel ing or similar action over this soft, fr0st-heaved surface prior to pre-. pairing for play. It must be carefully watched and worked" at the first available opportunity. This is very important.
 If water comes to the surface when pressed with foot or solivel, it when pressed with foot or shovel, it evaporate. As soon as this occurs. the court should be worked. A wet surface becomes moist surface. which in turn becomes a dry sur- face. Start work during the middle stage. A moist surface dries very rapidly.

REQUEST FOR A NICKEL A STRING
 REFUSED BY BOSS
Also Ask for Fans in Pits During Summer Months;
 Parlay Today

New Britain, April 15.-tspeciaD A strike that probably does not interfere with the defense program was started Tuesday night ct the new bowling alleys on Arch street, the Bowl-o-Rink owned by George Rogers, where about 20 pin boys walked out after failing to get promise of a cent game increase in their pay for the warmer weather months.
 The pin boys sent a committee to talk with MT Rogers and asked the cent & game increase, from four cents to five cents, and also the in- stallation of fan or two for the pits where they work, similar to fans they said had been installed for the other end of the alleys where the
 High Pay Now
 MT. Rogers could not see the ad- vance of Q cent Q game since four cents a game, the present price, is as high as any paid in the state for pin boys. The boys explained that the advance was only to be for the warmer months when bowling husi. mes; usually slows and they thus earn less for the time they spend at the alleys. MT. Rogers would agree to more fans for the pits but to the cent increase he said No"
 It was about p. m. and some league matches were to be bowled, a busy night at the alleys being in prospect. When their request for "better wages and working condl. tions' was not granted the boys walked out. For time they gath. cred in front of the building anc police were called. They told the boys not to loiter in front of the place and the group went up the street. . ...
 Negotiations
 Meanwhile they sent emmissaries to the other bowling alleys owned by MT. Rogers on Church street and informed them of the strike on Arch street. Police reported no disturb ance about the Arch street alleys throughout the rest of the evening and said the alleys had been closed as a result of the strike. Negotia- tions are expected to be resumed today.
 Pinboys must be 16 years of age to take such employment and most of them are school boye earning money in this manner in spare time. They average $l0 6 week in good weeks. They alternate in afternoon and evening work. the latter hour' running to midnight.
