may have been almost completely burned
up before reaching the earth.
But" says Mr.. Randolph, if the. big
meteorite had come straight down in
stead of at this long slant it would have
reached the earth with a lot of its
structure still intact and a lot of its
energy still in it. If it had landed on
Pittsburgh there would have been few
survivors. Its kinetic energy Of 81, 400
600 foot pounds is more than 40 times as

Advocates Reducing Speed
To Conserve Gasoline.

To the Editor Of The Star:
The plea of Secretary Ickes that
gasoline be conserved will not fall upon
deaf ears
However, since Mr.. Ickes is not only
a man of wide experience but also one
who has insight into human nature and
a sense of human values, perhaps it
might be suggested that he discount the
'Jackrabbit" starter as an emotional
nerve-bundle and concentrate on the
sustained offender"
The discerning driver knows that Is
per cent more gasoline is required to
propel car at so miles per hour than
at 40 miles per hour, while "a per cent
more gasoline is required to propel a
car at so miles per hour than at 40
miles per hour. and Sc per cent more
when driving 70 miles per hour.
Bearing these figures in mind, and
with the added knowledge that in 1888,
private passenger cars in the United
States covered an estimated 442 2271 ,OOO,-
600 miles, it is easy to comprehend the
quantity of gasoline that could be con-
served If the policy of reduced speed
were put into effect Immediately.

Objects to "Inappropriate Words"
Applied to pirate" Activities.


Applied to pirate" Activities,
To the Editor of The Star:
This wars conglomeration of sounding
phrases too frequently attributes dignity
to the Germans mode of fighting, thus
Ignoring the illegality of their warfare.
A particularly inappropriate concate-
nation of words is comprised in "the
battle of the Atlantic" The expression
originated in England and suggests, con-
trary to fact, that the oceanic challenge
is Of right.
THE cleanup of the Atlantic" is filter,
so better.
When Pompey was commissioned to
suppress lawlessness in the waters of
the Roman Empire. he did not shout
of "the battle of the Mediterranean" He
Just extirpated the pirates.
While America may not now legally
participate In battle" of the Atlantic,
we lawfully can engage in redeeming
that sea from pestilence, and to do so
with our public forces Is our duty and
within the laws province.

CARDINALS TAKE LEAD
IN SUSSEX LOOP

Last Thursday night, on the
home floor, the Milford Cardinals
took sole possession of first place
in the second half Of the Sussex
County Basketball League, when
they eked out a one-point win over
Millsboro's undefeated combine.
The game was the first time the
opposition has handed a horse-col-
lar to the Red Birds fiashy cap
tain.
The night before the Cards jour-
neyed to Dagsboro and took the
John M. Clayton Colts" into camp
by the score of SO to 20. Captain
Griffith led the scoring with II
points, followed closely by Truitt
of the losers with IL.
Tonight, special treat is in
store for basketball devotees, when
the high-hying Cardinals play
hosts to the st. Elizabeth RED
Raiders" the sensational new en-
try in Wilmington's outstanding
circuit, the Catholic League.
To add spice to the above an
nounced game is the fact that the
two clubs are far from being on
friendly basis, since their game in
Wilmington last Friday night. In
that contest, st. Elizabeth's de-
feated the "Red Birds" but with
the help of "Walt Matuszewski,
(rated as one of WilmingtOn's three
best basketeers, and a member Of
the st. Hedwig's Club" whom they
used under the name of Moyle, and
whose IL points plus his outstand-
ing work under the hoops affected
somewhat the score of SO to 27.
The box scores follow:

Admiral" Sills' prediction at the
close of the first half appears TO
have been no idle boast, as he ably
steered his flagship into the
leagues choice slot. His mighty
guns first moved down the Army,
80 to 10, and then swamped the
Devil Dogs" SO to 10. Dazzling"
Derrickson completely dominated
the scoring angle of both affairs,
scoring 16 hits in the first and is
in the second for a grand total of
81. which is quite respectable in
any mans league.
The grapevine has it that the
Marine Corps should be easy from
here on, for the reason that the
other players have to "pay" Cap
tain Clark and Tiger Timmons
for an occasional pass.
In the other games played, the
Marines grabbed a close decision
from the Air Corps, 1922, with
'"Tiger" Timmons' IL points top
ping the scoring, while Sugar"
Sockrider with 9 counters was
leading his cohorts to a hair-line
decision over the same depleted
Air Force, 1918.
