Those who flnd themselves thus affected at the outset are eautktned againat read- inr the artirle In its entirety, since there Is no letdown In the author's outspoken treatment of sickenlnr farts. Publicizing the total of motor In¬ juries—almost a million last year, with 36.000 deaths—never gets to first ba.se In jarring the motorUt Into a realization of the appalling risks of motoring.

Bey¬ ond any doubt, he ie one of the oldest and best catchers of the entire community and barring none, hU re¬ cord can well be written In local baseball history. "Charlie" ha-s had the support of every team in which he played for one good reason—he played every game with the same pep In days gone by. games played witliout "the fighting man behind tlie bal' lacked a lol of pep and spirit. "Gotta' Heath was the first and only "backstop" that created the strength and control that ever came from behind the plate In » manner such as is still individually bestowed upon the head of "Char¬ lie".

On Sunday the Easton Fleas wore tlie home attraction on the Schmidi !:i'Id. Joe Schmidi did the hurling for Charlie Heath's club and Mattes for the Pleas. Nazareth drew blood in the game by scoring one run in the first inning and in the remaind¬ er of the game drew blanks. After the first inning, Mattes calmed down and the fans saw one of the finest pitching duels ever staged on the Schmidt field. Each club got only five hits. Schmidt struck out seven men and walked none, and Mattes struck out six men and walked one. It was al.so one of the shortest games played, lasting exactly one hour and twenty minu¬ tes The game ended 1 t? 0 in favor of Nazareth.
