TEACHERS MEET MONDAY; HEAR

CITY SPEAKER The- regular.meeting' of the Easti

Haven Teachers' League' -v^ili be held on Mdiiday aflerhSon; Jan. 9 in the High School. Preceding the business meeting, tea will be served in the Honie Ecomomic Labor&tory from 3:00 to 3:45. • . ': _ _ <

Mr. Albert G. Merriam of. -the New Haven Teachers System will be the guest speaker and films on the National Education Associa­tion will bo shown.

All teachers and other school per­sonnel are cordially Invited to a t ­tend this meeting.

The important town—wide meet­ing t h a t the E H. Booster Club had tentatively scheduled for next Wednesday evening in the high school cafeteria has been un­expectedly postponed. Despite the Influence tha t tills session would have on the future display of in­terest in high school athletics, the use of the cafeteria a s a meeting place was vetoed, a t least for the time being, by the majority,of the members of the Board of Education, the bady .in whose responsibility lies the care and maintalnence of tlie school building. I t .Is regrettable tha t enough members of said boai'd are no t sports inclined or aware of the cooperative spirit of the instiga­tors of this move to generate more public interest for t h e various high school sports teams. I t is most' re­grettable mainly because the im­petus so vital to the success of this initial effort has already been des­troyed. I t is also regrettable because so many die—hards are consistent In their opinions t h a t nothing will ever come out of any progressive move tha t would provide better con­ditions and atmosiJhere. The die-hards can now say. "I told you so".

However, the Booster Club is fully aware of the responsibility of the Board of Education. This group is sadly lacking the ncfessary funds to provide'any form of program favor­able to our youngsters. There are enough members on the board who are no t willing to accept outside as­sistance to overcome this particular condition. In all . fairness to the Board of Education, Its task is not an easy one,: I t can not open -the ;higfef,'tacl?oeK,wtatiM!rig;,^farv^,^.6^ llttle'*tbeM|i6riWl«hdutS:!.puttlhBt('f*^ financial :burdeh"bii' Itself., T h e s e facts should be appreciated.

However.^as this proposed meeting was in the ' -gemirannteres t of the high school, a more open attl,tude on the part of some of the reluctant board members would have done much to the creation of an or­ganization- capable of commanding the at tent ion of all townspeople. Every high school in communities of our size is the center of public spirit, along with the respective churches. East Haven High has not been.able to get tha t town spirit, Tills move- would have ; been the s tar t . There are many functions, so far iuhdone, t h a t this embryo or­ganization could sponsor banquets, testemonlals;^ etc. These functions a r e ; n o t .absolutel.v' required, but are ; of extreme importance to the success of many a high school athlete. These are the reward tha t come.to the youngsters after season of sport competition. Several snorts teams of the high school in the .past year were unhearalded a t the conclusion of the season, mainly because there were no provisions to do' so.'.One year the Booster Club, then 'without, enough working capital, undertook the task .pf providing a banquet for all sports team's in the high school. Despite i\\e fact t h a t the organization's treasury was completely depleted Plus a substantial deficit, t he boys had a glorious time. There has not been, another banquet since. Func­tions of this sort take plenty of sup­por t , This would have been one of tfi important duties of'the proposed organization. Must, ' this 'spirit be smashed Instead of abetted?

The officers of the Booster-Club demand tha t , the efforts of the or­ganization be cooperative Instead of oppressive. In spite .of-the fact t ha t there has been little to cheer about as far as getting the coopera­tion tha t coulld be forthcoming at th is time, the Booster Cliib still re mains in hopes--of generating the Interest of the public.

W e wil l p r o v e , that s t a t e m e n t right u p to the hilt.

T h e anti-trust l a w y e r s tell the publ ic that they w o n a p r e v i o u s anti-trust su i t aga inst u s at D a n v i l l e , I l l inois . They did. , \ .

What they do not tell you is that they brouglit case after case against the A&P in federal courts all over the.United States. Before they won this case they suffered three defeats. •

The anti-trust lawyers ha've told everybodyabput the time that the courts said they were right. We think ybu'are entitled to know, about the.three times the courts said they were Wrong. .

Now wc are going to tell you about the first one. In future advertisements we will tell you about all of them.

In^/Vpril, 1941 , tho onli-trust lawyers brouglit a criminal suit in Wasli-ington, D. G.

Tlicy cliargod tlial Ihc A & P , two grocery chain competitors, two labor unions and other good American citizens had conspired to fix the price of bread. • •

Can anyone imagine any charge calculalcd to bo.more damaging to .a rolnil grocery business?. They askied millions of people to believe that wc were the kind of grocers who would take bread out of the mouths of poor people and make it harder for a wife and mother to feed her family. These charges were false.

In that case it developed that the A & P and the two competitors'who were cliarged with conspiring with us to maintain high bread prices' actually sold bread cheaper than most of the other stores in Washington. The anti-trust, lawyers presented and argued their case. When they were through, .Federal District Judge Allen T. Goldsborough ruled that A&P and the other defendants did not even have to put in a defense. Ho ordered the jury to bring in a verdict of ?'not guilty."

Judge Goldsborough said to the anti-trust lawyers: ••• "If yoit were to show this record to any experienced trial lawyer in the world, he would tell you that there was not.any evidence at all.

• "Honestly, I have never in my over forty years' experi' ence seen tried a case that was as absolutely devoid of evidence as this. That is the honest truth. I have never seen one like it,"

THE GREAT ATLANTIC &

ington CaSe So here was a case in which the anti-trust lawyers made seriously daiiiaging charges against the A & P , in support of which, in the words of the court, they did n^. have "any e'vidence at all."

This was riot the only time the anti-trust lawyers made chaffees against the A & P which the courts said were not true. In future ads w e are going to tell you abpjjt these other suits. We are not going to duck, either. We are going to tell you about the criminal suit that the anti-trust lawyers won at Danville, Illinois.

T h e anti-trust lawyers say that they are not attacking "bigness" or efficiency. They have to say that because the courts have decided that "bigness" and efficiency and selling at low prices is not a crime.

But the fact is crystal clear that they only brought their bread suit agamst the big companies and against companies that,sold good bread ot the lowest prices; just as in this current suit they are attacking a big company that sells good food cheap. , ^

W e are going to show the American people that the suit to destroy A & P is really a suit against efficiency and against real competition. '

T h e real question involved in this suit is whether businessmen are going to be encouraged to do a better and more efficient job; or whether we are going to let the anti-trust lawyers in Washingtop blow the whistle on anybody-who gets big by giving the people more for their money.

No one can make us believe that it is a crime to try to sell the best quality food at the lowest possible price.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE SERVICE First Church of Christ Scientist,

Winthrop and Derby Avenues, New Haven. Sunday service at 11 A. M. and 5 P. M. Sunday School is at 11 A. M. Wednesday evening testimon­ial meeting at 8. The Reading Room at 162 Temple Street is open week days from 9 to 8:45 and 'Wednesday from 9 to 8.

"Sacrament" will be the subject of the Lesson-Sermon for Sunday, January 8, 1950.

The Golden Text is from Proverbs 16:1,3. "The preparations of the heart in man, and the answer of the tongue, is from the Lord. . . . . Commit thy works unto the Lord, and thy thoughts shall be es­tablished."

Selections from the Bible In­clude the following: "How hardly shall they that have riches enter into the kingdom*'ot Oodi;' (Luke 18:24): , .t.

Correlative passages from the Christian Science textbook, "Sci­ence and Health with Key to the Scriptures," by Mary Baker Eddy, Include the following {p.141): "More than profession is requisite for Christian demonstration. Few un­derstand or adhere to Jesus' divine precepts for living and healing. Why? Because his precepts require the disciple to, cut off the right hand and pluck out the right eye,--that Is, to set aside even the most cherished beliefs and practices, to leave all for Christ."

The Crisis: UTiat To Do About It Norman Cousins

(Editor of Saturday Review ot Literature)' ,

There Is no argument about the fact tlfat our security is threatened; no argument about the dangerous deterioration In the world picture since the end ot the war; no argu­ment about the oiltlcal need for American to devise adquate pro­tection for herself and her institu­tions.

The main argument Is what to do about It. There are those who be­lieve that power makes greatness. They call for assembling our atomic, air, naval and miUlars might for any contingency. The problem being what It Is and the times being what they are, we doubl whether you can find either security or greatnens by looking for II through a gun barrel.

American security today depends primarily not upon Us own physical strength but on the creation and operation of a world security struc­ture with adequate powers to make and enforce worlld law.

Tlie nature of the new warfare If such that the aggressor Is not only, heavily; favored, but In many re­spects decisively favored, Some mlltary experts have made the tell­ing observation that tho ability to retaliate In modern warfre, even by a nation which' enjoyed superior force, is no longer; assured. But even If retaliation la possible, It is hardly exhilarating to know thai after fort.y. millions of our own citizens are killed In the first wave ot a' attack. We ca*!! probably kill sixty millions of the enemyl /

This does not mean that America should throw away her weapons un­der a placid and' 'pacifist Jiolloy. Unilateralism in respect to disarma­ment Is as dangerous as any other form of unllatcxallsm. All It does mean Is that If the United Natlont-is our "first line of defensci" as the President has .stated, then the leasl we can do Is to act as though we actually believed It. .Did we believe it at San Francisco when wc, alonp with tho Russians, ilnslsted on the veto, because we. were unwilling to become part of any International authority, which ,had compulsory Jurisdiction? Did we'belleve it when we virtually set aside tho Charter for military unilateralism In the Pacific? Did we beblleve It when wc said we were going into Greece with men and arms because the U.N. lacked the power to • deal with the problem—not onlly without say­ing that we would be willing for out part to glvethe U. Ni the power It would need for such an emer­gency^ but by acting first, then telling the U. N._ about' ,lt after wards?

The fact of themat ter Is that neither this government nor Sovlt Russia has taken the United Nations seriously. • • What about the Russians? Would they go along with' a proposal to give the United Nations the powers of va limited world government operating In the area of common security? Right now for Ameiioa, however, the Importont question Is what we ourselves are willing to do. Not until we make , that declsloti will we be able to'come to grips with the problem of, getting the Russians to come along. All we can do .is to make the proposals for world law in utmost good faith, making'it clear that'what we are urging is not an organized coalition against any member but a chance for all members to abhleve a higher security than any can obtain in­dividually Those who subscribe to those principles liave the obliga­tion to go forward;' those who do not will probably rqmain outside— If they can afford the itiany dlsa-vantages of moral and physical Isolation from the rest of the world community.

Bot and slide into the same old (ooll.sh habi t s , - the mean .acts, the unkind words, the hurtful thoughts of our brains. We murder another , we steal fronl another, we commit adultery, we bear false witness, we covet another 's good name, his wealth, his wife, h i s success and even the will of the wisp, called fame." And, like the grea t Lawyer In the Temple a t Jerusalum, in the proscncp of t h e Christ, we say t h a t we have loved God with ' all our heart , our souls, our bbdles. The Spirit of Christ in our hear ts , says, "O no. you have n o t loved any one but your own Ihdlvldual IDOL" Wlilch is enshrined in your own mind. You are so busy worshiping tha t Idol, you have n o time to wor­ship God, T h e beloved Apostle John says. How c a n you love God whom .vou have no t seen. If you cannot love your brother , whom you have seen. You mus t practice "Love" on those whom you can see, before you can love Him, whom you can­not see.

And the road through t h e New Year, stretches out In radiant beauty, I resolve, etc., I will live a higher life. Yes, a much higher life, r will pu t away the sordid, tho mean, the •• contomptilble. I will honor my heavenly Father , by serv­ing him better , I will obey t h e com­mandment of God more carefully. I will express Christ, to my neighbors, to my Communityy. I wll wear tho garment of praise, and n o t of mourning. I will no t worship my pot Idols, as I have the pa.st year. My greedy hand will not always bo stretched ou t in an effort to get gold. I will destroy these idols, which keep God out ot my heart , I will show Kindness, where once I nurs­ed hatred a n d malice. I will live and not let my living hur t another soul.

No, this year , I am resolved, shall bo nobler, cleaner nearer God and nearer to the hear t ot my fellow-men. Yes, I will get out ot the clay onto higher ground. Lord, I would know thee better, keep closer to tliy divine order. The Idol, which I have been serving, I will cast out ot my hear t so t h a t thy Holy Spiri t can enter in, and bring me the heaven­ly blessings which I pray tor, long tor and have desli'cd ot thoe.

New Generator Is State's Largest

Jnltlal operation of Connecticut's most powerful electric generator, n

',000 kilowatt turbogenerator in­stalled a t l l i e Connecticut Light and Power Company's Devon steam power plant near Mllford, will be witnessed today by CL&P Co. and Wesllnghouse Electric Corporation officers, Public Utilities Commiss­ion members, and executives ot United Engineers and Constructors, Inc.

Inspection of the new generator win follow a luncheon meeting of the group, where it Is expected that the party will be addressed by Gwllym A Price, president of West-inghouse Corporation, and R. H. Knowlton, CL&P Co. president.

The new 66,000 kilowatt unit, manufactured by Wesllnghouse and Installed by Engineers and Con­structors, Inc., under the direction of CL&P Co. engineers, Is among the biggest In New England and makes Devon, now in Its 25th year ot service, the largest steam power plant In Connecticut, Mr. Knowl­ton announced.

First of two 66,000 kilowatt units scheduled for installation a t Devon, this extremely efficient new genera­tor Is capable ot meeting the en­tire electrical needs of a city as large as Watcrbury, Mr. Knowlton said. The new -unit operates a t a steam temperature of 950 degrees Fahrenheit , a pressure of l;250 pounds, and consumes only eight-

day, J anua ry 10. Mrs. John H. Mc Cabe and Mrs. Wlnthrop Towner in charge.

Construction for tho second 66,000 kilowatt uni t will shortly be under­way and It is expected t h a t it will be ready for operation late in 1050.

Tlie recently Installed Devon unit Is tho most powerful.of n series of four new generators >vhlch the Corqpany has added to its Devon and MontvUle p lant cenerallng facilities as par t ot a $77,000,000 program of expansion and Improve­ments which the Connecticut utility has been rushing to completion since wartime building restrictions were removed In 1945.

Of these, two 35,500 kilowatt tur­bogenerators have been installed a t tho Montvllle plant near New London to replace two 10,000 kilowatt units put in operation In 1010, and a t Devon, in addition to the new 66,000 kilowatt generator which win begin operation today, a new 60,000 klllwatt uni t was added to the pllant 's facilities in 1847, By the end ot 1950 it is expected that Devon's gross generating capacity win be 270,000 kilowatts, more than th ree times i ts 1941 capacity.

Transmission' facilities have been gratly expanded to make Devon's growing power resources available throughout the slate, and at present a 116,000 volt line readies from Devon to the Company's central A\s-Irlbutlon Station at Southlnglon, and on to the Montvllle plant ; two 115,000 volt llne.1, and a 69,000 volt

The Branford Garden Club met on Friday, December 30 a t the home of Mrs. Samuel A. Grlswold. The Christmas decorations were much admired and tlie gorgeous tree in front ot tho fireplace v/ith Its bright trimmings and brlllant lights was a wonderful sight!

Mrs. Grlsw'old, very graciously consented to repeat her talk on antique furniture—the formal ti­tle—"Furniture Periods and Devel­opment In the Colonies from 1020 to 1820."

A most comprehensive talk was given beginning with the landing ot the pilgrims and , noting, tha t because of the size of the slilp very few sizable articles could have been brought over by our ances­tors. In the cabin shelters the set­tlers occupied, the furniture was of the crudest kind, but there were skilled workmen with their tools, and elilef among the talented was John Alden. Then there came Car­ver, Brewster, Walnscott, Kenelln Wlnslow, brother of Governor Winslow. There came forth pil­grim chalrSi cupboards, chests an4 beds. Early furniture ot the l'7th

Century has survived three h u n ­dred years. Rose House in North Branford had some fine produc­tions, which were described a t length, and some can now be seen at Yale College. Nicolas Dlsbrow and Captain John Allls ot Hadley were skilled workmen.

Mrs. Grlswold illustrated by char t the dillerent periods—Will-lam and Mary, Queen Anne 1702-1715 and Thomas Chippendale 1738-1778. Other skilled craftsmen were William Savery, Benjamin Randolt, Thomas Gostelowe. The lovely mahogany furniture ap ­peared with claw feet and elabor­ate carving, lieavicf and more or­nate than before. ••

The Townsends of Newport and John Goddard brought In t h e candlestands, pie crust and tip t a ­bles. •

The Federal Period introduced Sam Mclntyre /1772-1812, cabinet­maker and carver.

Duncan pfyte of New York, 1792 was a leading furniture maker.

I n the Empire period Lambert and Hitchcock were spoken of and their furniture described.

Mrs. Grlswold's talk was much enjoyed but the best par t was the tour of her house, with Mrs. Grls­wold describing all the rare and beautiful pieces of furniture, all ot which have such marvelous his­tories.

A return to the dining room, where tea was served and Mrs. H. B. BuUard and Mr.s. George J. Fouser presided a t the tea table— the table was charmingly decora­ted with dark red carnations and grey caladlum leaves. This was .the last meeting of the year, and the first meeting of 1950 will be Febru­ary 3rd, a t which the yearly pro­grams will be distributed. Mrs. Halg-Solaklan, Is program chair­man tor 1950.

Devon's new 66,000 kilowatt turbogenerator, and its sister unit -which will be installed in 1950, operates at a steam pressure of 1,250 jjounds, a steam temperature of 950 degrees Fahrenheit, and can generate a kilowatthour of electricity from al)Out eight-tenths of a pound of,coal. This highly efficient unit contrasts sharply with the original Devon units, installed in 192'f, which required about one and one-third pounds of coal per kilowatthour.

When the second 66,000 kilowatt unit is installed a t Devon in 1950, the plant will include six turbo­generators with a total gross generating capacity of 282,000 kilowatts. This figure more than doubles Devon's 19'<5 capacity of 125,000 kilo­watts and reflects a $77,000,000 postwar expansion and iraprovcmeot program made possible by oor 27,281 stockholders. W e appreciate their con­fidence in the future of our state and in our Company a a j i*s employees.

This ncw^ 66,000 kilo-watt turbogenerator — the largest in Connecticut, and among the largest in New linglanti — was placed in your service recently at our Devon steam power plant. Right now it's generating enough power to meet the entire elcc-, trical needs of a city as large as Watcrbury,

You asked for this extra power. Estimates based on your grow-^ ing demands for electricity showed us long ago tJiat by 1950 your fequireincnts would call for greatly expanded generating facilities. Ever since wartime building restrictions were lifted in 19'i5 we've been working to keep our supplies ahead of your dcinands.

We'll get a lot of help in that important job fjom o\ir new 66,000 kilowatt Devon unit, which is the latest and largest in a scries of four new generators we've installed at our Devon and ;. Montville steam power plants since the war's end as part of an extensive $77,000,000 program of expansion and improvements to facilities.

But because you'll be needing more power in the near future,^ construction for a second 66,000 kilowatt turbogenerator has been started at our Devon plant. When this unit is completed it will replace a worn-out 25,000 kilowatt machine which has been in service since the Devon plant was commissioned 25 years ago.

Providing today for the all-important power supplies which will stimulate and sustain Connecticut's economic growth. The Connecticut Light and Power Company is working constantly for the continued progress of our state.

DRUGSTORE CONFAB BY BILL A H E R N

Jimmy Olynn, East Haven's sports ' historian, was seated on a stool In front of the very popular counter a t Metcalf's yesterday preparing to go to wprk. Ho was talking of pro basketball teams and particularly of the suciScas of the old Jell teams. <

Jim was well quail Ocd to speak because he had been a member tor awhile, following the Initiatory days of the sport. His conversation com­pared the new Towne Motors' o r ray with the colorful Shcehan brothers. Mink Swhski, Ston Sokoloskl and Johnny Mahor, to name a few.

' But most of all h e was convinced t h a t the game would go In East Haven, ! ' '

Although he did n o t realize It, o lynn struck a point. One of the better players on the new combine Is Fraiik prlsan. One

of the keenest playmakera on the old quintet Was Maher. ' Teacher and j^upll, both were able enough to hold spots with the

flneat teams in the s ta te . ' , ' \ Tlu' rcd-thatched one Is no longer of East Haven. There aro many

timi'K tlini, lie I'omi-s buck for visits elthef with his Darlon High School athletes, as a game omclal, or merely as a friend to visit hl.s successor, Crlsafl.

' Originally Maher was o nat ive of Mlltord, one of several brothers who notched athletic marks under BUI Regan and Herb French.

He was a nro-brand with a bad habi t of flying Into a tantrum when things went against him, or h is mates. By the same token the habi t which worked against him was likewise a strongpoUit for Maher was a

• .coiifpotltor who never quit until t he last ho rn blew. Mlltord aiid Maher were a tough combination for the other Housa­

tonic Lcngue teams to 'crack. 'Pl red to Intensity by Regan, their teams clawed their way to many wins which ordinarily they should have lost,

Miihur went to Arnold College after he graduated from Mlltord, 'riioro, as In his former school, ho was a contributing factor In Ihe ' suc-c'esH cit a much smaller college t h a n Arnold Is today,,

I t was Inevitable, as he approached his senior year, t h a t he would look about for a coaching Job a n d the 'W.P.A, was completing East Hav­en's fine structure. '

The. la te Jim Hlnes, a factor politically and soclaH'y In the shore-town, took an Interest In the lad and Maher contrived to got a playing Job with the Jeffs. His sparkling personality took care of the rest.

Johnny blossomed. His speed and bralnwork proved his r ight to a t eam berth. Thus

when the Job broke, h e had t h e greatest backing because h e .already was a favorite with the townsfolk.

And Maher took to Ills a thle t ic director's post like old folks take to Christmas candy. ' , , ,

Dut the roads were tough. Home of t h e keenest coaching minds ever to operate In , the Housatonic League were guiding the fortunes of the various schools. Si Tarboll was a t Sholton, Johnny Kncoht o t Brantord, Lang Fernald a t Walllngford, Leo Ryan a t Derby, Herb F rench (xt Mll­tord and'Tom Andrews a t Stratford,

Any and all of the mentors were s h a r p . A lapse on t h e pa r t ot an opposing player or coach meant the ball game. Maher was a rookie.

He had one Instinct, though, whlcH paid off. T h a t was a secure knowledge tha t a team grounded In fundamentals would no t make care-, less blunders.

• After a preliminary whirl a round the circuit, East 'Havon was ready. I n tio time they were challanging the top teams. They did not play foot­ball but In basketball and baseball, they se t a fast pi^ce.

Qultd naturally a rivalry grew between Branford and East Haven. I t was to'stored in a large measure by the heads of the schools who saw

. big gates In the omng. , • . The surprise In the birth of scholastic sports In East Haven was the

absence of big city-ltis which strangled t h e town when Its youngsters were going to HUlhouse and Commercial In New Haven.

The solid support of the pupi ls and t h e townsfolk was a . t r ibute to Moher. • > ^ , ^

, And he,worked h a r d to get a winner. , . He 'was blessed almost Immediately wi th ' J immy Olynn, a top notch

schoolboy center of Ed Boblnski's type. But Branford had Johnny 'yusleviedz, Paul 'Ward, Butch Nnlmo, Al Torino, Joe Diiell, Stan Petela, t h e Llpkvlch brothers and a succession of really great ball players.

For d time East Haven banged Its head against the stonewall ot ex­perience and Mahor, burned wltli frustrat ion. But ho learned. He reason­ed why Johnny Knecht wanted t h e opposing lineup early and then either Withheld his information until t h e last inlnutb or substltute'd the real positions. More than any time of his life, h e learned to think every min­ute of a,game and not to relax. Altliough h e ranted against scorers ond timers, referees and umpires, he eventually learned to control his temp­er. 'Wlien he learned t h a t lesson, t h e tide changed.

I t happened one night In the Brantord armory. Brantord was aljead by a single point as half time nearod, 'With the ball in the Blue and Gold's possession, a player flred a t the basket as time expired. The ball

• fell through the hoop but the t imer rided t h a t the basket was no good. Maher exploded, but before the third quar te r started he shook hands with the timer In front of nine hundred wildly partisan fans.

In baseball, it was a different story. • In short order he was winning the circuit troplilcs with little oppo­

sition. Coaches Were inclined to ' scolt a t the dlariiond sport bu t not Maher. And his decision paid off. Two of his finest charges are still playing ball, Jacljle Tyler and Bob Sperry, both ot the West Haven Sailors,

Ho developed a haljlt of scanning the Qrammar Schools for possible ma^terlal. A roly.:poly k'ld caught h is eye. Tiloy got along famously and Frank Crlsafl became a top notch, schoolboy athlete.

So niuoh did Maher think of t h e boy t h a t three weeks before Crlsafl groduated from East Haven, the coach took him aside and asked him it h e would, like to go to college and become n, epoch. Crlsafl sajd, "'Sfes".

The rest Is recent history. Maher left East Haven and now is In Darien. Last year with prac­

tically no basketball material , h e masterminded Darien Into the runner-up spot of the Class B, Q.I.A.C. t ou rnamen t . . • . '

|. Because East Haven dropped out of tlie tourney early, most college scouts and coaches did not see much of 'Frank; Crlsafl's team. But Hugh Oreer, the coach of the University of Connecticut, did and picked a boy 03 a future college s ta r . The lad was Stcvte Narraed, whom Crlsafl re ­gards as Maher did him. \ Maher once did and as Crlsafl is now. Bu t one tlilng Is certain when a coach plays he is shorpenlng his game and gaining his knowledge from experts. Thus It Is reflected in h i s coaching and the mater ial which he turns out. Sometimes boys even go to college and others scurry tor seats to watch them play, -

I t Is a whirlpool of life. ' ' •, Not every boy who goes to school on a athlet ic scholarship Is on a t h -

letU bum. More often t h a n not h i s .reflection In^tho sport 's sun l^ mir­rored In business successes.

On t h a t note Olynn reached for the food ticket which Margaret pushed Oicross the counter to h im. Ills l i the form slouched to the cash counter. A bell rang and some coins dropped leadenly Into the till. Ho doffed his h a t and Jacket, donned a full sleeved white vest, smiled a t a woman entering the store, and asked, "May I tie of service to you?" > The interview was over.

EAST HAVEN INVADES ARMORY f ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ FOR ANNUAL BASKETBALL TILT NEXT SUNDAY EVENING WITH HORNETS FRIDAY NIGHT Although the Housatonic League

.reason Is less than a week old, the season's crucial test for both Bran-ford and East Haven High Is al stake tomorrow evening a t the s late armory In Branford when the pair meet In the first of a two game series which pits the rivals In loop play. '

Both teams dropped their In­augurals on Tuesday. The Hornets were exjjectod to win but the upset was not upforteen. East Haven was against a veteran combine and were not ready a t this time,

I 'he season's results will hinge on Friday's session. A loss for either team will give It a tough two game barrier to overcome in a normally fas t league. The Impetus which comes from dcteallhg a natural rival could provide the spark which tiro cither unit to the pennant .

The Hornet are captained by Lou Locarno, a brilliant operator a year agn when he won all state B class honors by being named, to the all s ta te team. Because he has slowed since he broke his ankle In three places In a. football game, the keen eyed set shot artists has not been taking the shots which mode him a s tandout a year ago.

Both he and his running mate , Addison Long, a rc adept a l back­board ploy and are clever ball handlers

I t Is In the forward berts t h a t Branford h a s had the most trouble. Blake Lchr, a Junior has been slow In rounding Into form and new­comers Tom Purcell and Joe Paul have experienced on and off nights which ore despairing to a coach.

Sampson h a s changed his style somewhat.

More changes will be evident tomorrow when Coach Frank Crlsatl ot the Invading yellowjackets spreads his two, three detense on the armory floor for the Sampson-m e n to shoot against. The defense h a s been good once It s tarted operating otfecllvclyi late

His boys are tireless and love to run. They ore paced by clever Bub Mautto who has on unerring eye for the- hoop. His fakes are unusu?il for a high school lad. Mautte, who operates from a forward berth will be flanked by either Chuck Thomas or Tip Tlnari . 1'homas ,tho taller of the two Is a senior who has not h a d much experience, Tlnari, very .small is a firebrand but many of his shots are wasted against the ,helRht of his opponents.

Lou- PaollUo win start a t center Usually a hard driver, t he senior was off his pace against Walllngford on Tuesday when he failed to rack up his customary ten or twelve points CoBoh Crlsafl is hoping t h a t his performance was an off nlghf. PaollUo does a good Job off .the de ­fensive boards and usually in the thick ot a pUeiip. PaollUo is co-cttptaln wi th Junle Espaslto, J

The .pre l iminary gome will bring together t h e Jay-veo uni ts of both schools. Eas t Haven's tall youngs­ters will probably prevail since Branford h a s been hapless In most of I ts s tar ts th is season, '

A turn dway crowd Is expected but all seats will be on sale a t the door. I t will bo first come, first served.

Derby Subdues Hornets Trip Branford 42-33 In Loop Opener

An offcn,slvely minded Derby High School array opened Its Hou.salonlc League basketball sea-.son on lis home court on Tuesday night when It measured the Bran­ford High Hornets ea.sy fashion 42 .to 33.

Only Its big guard and shooting oce, Lou Locarno .could ma tch the Red Raider's elTectivoncss Wltn pivot plays OS demonstrated by big Fran Walenskl, who topped ail the scorers with 14 points. The center played but a fraction over , two quarters In ne t t i ng his total.

Ad Long with four hoops was second, to Locarno's 11 in Branford's defeat.

Big and undaun ted Coach Leo Ryan's charges operated from a single pivot but Walenskl used his height effectively against Joe Paul's Inexperience to drop In tour fouls and throe hopps In the first ten minutes of plAy. When he commit­ted his fourth personal, Karllns took up the slack until Wllenskl reenter­ed the gome In the lost frame.

Much ot Branford's offensive poise, in the forward berths, was lacking as Purcell and Lehr were stymied In the tln.Y Derby gym. Locarno and Long kept the locals In t h e gome wi th seven hoops In the first sixteen minutes.

Derby gained Its big bulge in the opening' quarter and led 15 to 8. Play was even-In t h e second quarter with the home team hitt ing for 8 counts against 0 for the Sampson-men. At the hol t the* court was 23 to 14.

The Hornets could only not four points In the thi rd canto but Derby, minus Wllenskl, notched only 9 points but led 32 to 18, s tar t ing the final stanza.

Branford, in Its only .surge of the night, took control In the last eight minutes paced by Washington and Locarno.' Although they outecorcd the homo team 15 to 10, the victory was chalked to Derby's credit 42 to 33

Gentlemanly Five Is Uconn's Title

In this day ot rough, fast basket­ball, the University of Connecticut hoopstcrs could easily qualify for the mythical title "Oentlemen of the cour t . "

Either the Uconns were being extra gentle with opponents or they are practitioners of legerdemain, /or , up until last week, they h a d committed only 14,4 personal fouls per game. According to t h e National CoUeplat? AtW?tlp Bur?au, t h a t

averogo places the Uconns sixth among the nation's small colleges In t h a t department.

The Uconn opponents wore not so gentle, however, or else they were being caught more often' a t the ar t of court mayhem. Statistics show t h a t the • ojiponents have averaged 24,6 personal fouls per game against Oonheotiout,

JEWISH HOME FOR CHILDREN TO CELEBRATE ANNIVERSARY

By OoorRo RcynoUl.s "And ho Who gives a child n

t reat makes Joy-bolls r ing In Heaven's slreot and ho who gives a child a home builds • palacea In Kingdom come." i

These tew words outline vividly the basic philosophy which has been the Inspiration of the Jewish Homo for Children In New Ilavon^ a Community Chest agency, from the timo of Its founding down to the present day. The couplet Is more t h a n a mere slogan printed on a Itterhcad, It Is something t h a t the People associated with tho; Inslltu-Uon feel i n , their hearts . T h e ot-fIccra and staff who operate tho libnio a t 701 Sherman Avenue go about their work every day with special intent to try to make a happy homo for every child.

Not All Orpliiuis Readers of Tho East Haven News

may think tha t all children living .In an agonoy . such as this arc orphans. This popular concept Is a fallacy. Tlie Jewish Home f6r Chil­dren caros'for children who are victims of many different circum­stances Tlicre are children who have one parent living, some have parents who are divorced, .wmo are In tho home because of financial difficulties of their families or be-cau.so of tholrpaxonts' .Physical no-Rlcct of them. A very small number of children are. "full" Orphans,

Some children are In the homo On a temporary basis to receive training and supervision or to ef-' feet an emotlonar adjustment. Fre­quently it will happen that a child's development will be Impeded by an unfortunate environment. •• For In­stance, If a child's parents arc un-; able to make a homb for him, ho may spend severar; years of His childhood In the homes of Various! relatives. When this; happens,-. <a child doesn't receive supervision i n d care from one consistent source, and ho Is also under an emotional strain -because of separation from his parents. ' ; ' A .

Influences such as those may re­sult In Immature behavior In .school, and the tact that the child Is n o t iis .KDClally adjusted a.i hl.s class­mates will bo plainly evident.

Ex­pert medical care Is available, and, upon adrntsslon, t ho child Is examined by a physlcan, who volun- i teers his services. It certain correc­tive measures or diet adJustiilenlH are recommended, tho child will r e ­ceive rehabilitating oaro.

If la newly admitted child shows signs of former neglect, special meals and vitamin tablets are made, a pa r t of tho youngster's first tew months ' In tho home. An' a t tempt Is mado restore him to tho normal, vigorous heal th of carefree-youth. Dental needs of the children are met by sem-annual Inspections, and, It t rea tment Is necessary, tho chil­dren visit the office of one of tho volunteer dentists.

Attend Public Schools All of tho children, from kinder­

gar ten tots to high scliool students, a t t end the local public schools. A majority of tho children at tends tho Abraham Lincoln Schofll. Special funds of tho home provide prizes for the boy and girl who a t ­tain tho best marks In public school. And tho Incentive system has ex­panded to Include prizes for the best behaved boy a n d girl In tho homo, best boy,and Blrl4h;Hobrow class, most Inxnrovod boy and Rli*l Jn t h e homo, Hebrew class, public soHbbl and Sunday school. One lad a t the homo said ho h a d designed a "most Improved" model pea shooter but t h a t ho would probably never do anything with It. "Tlioy only give prizes tor constructive things," he said.

Tho religious education of the chi ldren Is taken caro of by tho Hebrew classes ' of tho JewKsh Center. At tho homo, Friday night and Saturday mornInK services are conducted by the qhlldren, with their own cantor and presiding ot-tlcorK of their own congi'egatlon. Tho boy and girl who load In religious obsorvanoo also receive prizes. In compliance with Dietary Laws, the children loam to dls-tlnguLsh between milk and moat dishes And a knowledge of table etiquette Is acquired by careful supervision and by tho liberal use of silverware. :

T h e children are also taught tundamontals of .neatness a n d . o f cooperation with their fellow chil­dren. Each child learns to care tor his own clothes, to keep his room tld.y. and to help occasionally with the table sotting and dish washing .chores. Tlio ohildron become self-reliant artd aware of the contribu­tions they must make to society as thoy approach maturi ty. '

the atmosphere of a boarding school I h e y partake of all normal activities outside tho agency as befit their ago groups. Chlrdren ot tho home follow many courses upon leaving. Some go Into business, others attend college. And there are alumni who'have served In tho armed forces.

IHstablLshcil in 1005 Tlie Jewish Home for children

soon win celebi'ate Its -ISlh annlveis-ary. In 1005 a group ot 11 Jewish women, recognizing the Imminent need tor something to bo done for homeless chlldrori of their faith, es­tablished a homo with quarters at 441 Orange Street. This organiza­tion wa-s the first step toward filling the need of a growing community and It was .known as tho "Hebrew Ladles OiTJhan Society.".

In those early days ot the century, . Ideas for operation of homes tor children wore decidedly dlttorent from accepted practices of today. The children were dressed In uniforms and gome older residents of the Orange Street section may still recall the blue gingham dresses of tho girls.. Regimentation was tho order of tho day and play-space was very limited.

The Orange Street home was managed, tor 18 years by the Ladles Orphan Society and In 1920 .Tudge Jacob Caplan became the president. Tho year 1920 also marked a change In name to the .Jewish Homo for Children. Judge Caplan held tho ottlce for 14 .years until his death. Tlie late Joseph H. Ullman was named to Iho presidency In 1034, and served until his retirement In 1041, Dr.. Maxwell Lear Is tho current president. .

Quarters Oiitgrown With the passing of years It be­

came Increasingly evident that larger . quarters and additional facilities would bo required to con­tinue tho home. Accordingly a campaign for funds was launched and In 1024 Iho present building a t Sherman Avenue and Ford , Sti-eet was constructed.

The home Is a two-story brick structure of. colonial archltccliUro, surrounded by several acres ot trees and flowers. The children live In a sMies of small roomsfboys and girls' on separate floors,' and, along with the s tandard bedroom furnishings, the rooms show a personal touch ot some. teen-ago hobby-or tad. One can see school banners on a wall In a boy's room, or a . collection of cologne bottles on a dresser In a girl's room. ' ,

Tho synagogue on the main floor Is an encom-agement to the children to make pi'ayor and devotion com­ponents of their lives. There Is an auditorium for assemblies and ad­joining It Is the library. Here as In any private homo the books on ad­venture show more wear than non-flctlon books. The coiillc books are nowhere In sight—they, nre too valuable to b e kept anywhere, except under a pillow on the owner's bed. •

The population ot the home has averaged about 30 children In r e ­cent years, with the proportion of boys ' t o girls being nearly equal. The operating budget ' averages about $30,000 a year, with tho Corn-munlty Chest of Greater Now Haven undorw.rltlng approximately 30 per cent Tho Institution has been a member agency of tho Chest since 1020. Tlie necessary additional funds .arc raised by maintenance toes, membership duos, and by tund-ra ls-in projcfcts ot the Ladles Auxiliary and tho Brotherhood of the homo.

A board ot managea-s, operating through colnmlttoes on Building, Finance, Intake, and ol;her Import­ant phases, administers t h e home. Tho direct management Is under Hyman W. Hoss, executive director. Mr. Heas has sp'cnt his entire adult years In a career of teaching and management of children. He main­tains that the primary concern of himself and the staff members Is the happiness of tho children. "An unhappy child will be disagreeable with his friends and difficult for his supervisors," Mr.- Hess said. "When the underlying cause of his unhapplness Is sought out and cor­rected, the chllid win once again be a bright and cooperative person." Mr Hess and his staff feel that It

And take away the source of pain,

Then God will do the rest.
