TOWN WRANGLES AT Palisade, N. Y., Township Stirred by { Proposal to Honor Memory of Baron Von Steuben. Hackensack, N. J., July 21.—Palis- ade township was stirred today by a controversy over the naming of a new school building after Baron von Steuben, German soldier and Revo- lutionary war general under Wash- ington. Residents of River Edge Manor, where the building is to be located, appeared” before the township board of education, asking that naming of the school be postponed until all the residents could have an opportunity to express their-6pinion but the board declined. It refused also to consider anotber name and announced the cornerstone would be laid Saturday, according to plans. Objectors said there was no evi- dence that the baron ever became an American citizen and they alleged the movement to name the school in his honor was started by German resi- dents of the township Defenders of the board recalled von Steuben’s record in the Revolution and pointed out that several states gave him grants of land after the war. He died in Steubenville, N. Y., which was named for him in 1794. HEAVIER BOMBS TO BE USED IN' ATTACK LOCAL STOCK MARKET TODAY Furnished by Putnam & Co., Successor to Richter & Co.

NAMING OF SCHOOL Ansonia, July 21.—John Carey, one NEW bidt Al BESSE STORE WINNERS Besse-Leland Baseball Nine Defeats the New Britain Gas Lght Company ‘With a Score of 9 to 8 in First Game In an exciting and interesting game, played at Walnut Hill park yesterday afternoon, Besse-Leland Co. defeat- ed the N. B. Gas Light company team by a score of 9,to 8. The game was exciting right from the start, although in the first inning it looked as though the score would be in favor of the Gas company. The store team went to bat first and scored but one run, Ring- rose scoring on Gibney's hit to the outfield. Driscoll did the hurling for the Gas Light company and although he pitched a very good game the store aggregation had little trouble in find- ing him when hits meant runs. When the Gas company came to bat in the first inning they started things off with a hum. Ringrose was pitching good ball but received little support from his backers. By the third out the Gassers had scored five runs. In the second inning three more runs were piled on top of the five and the score stood 8 to 3/ in favor of the Gas company. After that Ringrose came back strong and the Besse-Le- land team tighténed up all around, holding the Gas company scoreless for the remainder of the game. Mean- while the store team came across with at least one run an inning and in the final period pulled in three runs which won the game. After the second inning the game settled to a good steady pull with few brilliant plays. This is the second time this season that the Besse-Leland Co. has trimmed the Gas Light team and the store aggregation. is .now ready to tackle other city teams. RSONAL. Earle B.
