The motorcycle was running in the car track and due to the slippery pavement, the machine skidded when an attempt was made to get it out of the track. The boys were thrown to the ground and one was knocked unconscious for a few minutes, but they weer on their way again in a few minutes, having suffered only slight bruises. . Smashes Wheels, The right front wheel on bearing 4 New York state license was smashed yesterday morning, when the driver turned into the ditch and struck the soft dirt covering the newly laid water mains opposite the .post office in Berlin. The dirt here, because of the recent rains, was al- most mud, and when the car struck it the wheels sunk into the ditch, re- sulting in the damage mentioned above. It is said that the road torn up when the ditches were being dug, cannot be cemented until the ground has settled and, as there is no water supply in the town, it was necessary to wait for a rain. The name of the driver of the car was not learned. Session of Registrars. .

C., Oct, 9.—Repre. sentative Langley (Ky.), chairman oi the house committee on public build- ings and grounds, is preparing esti- mates for an omnibus bill to ecarry appropriations up to $100,000,000 which he will submit to the budget bureau. He says the measure has the approval of post office and treasury officials. Congress is planning an orgy of “pork barrel” legislation at the next session and only tremendous pressure {by the administration leaders can stop it. There have been no appropria- tions for federal buildings at such places as Podunk, Buzzards Glory, the Twin-Oak Cross roads since 1013, All “pork barrel” building projects for the government were arrested during the war. Now the congressional appe- tite for appropriations for every dis- trict is so keen that it will be diffi- cult to restrain. Administration leaders realize such a program would oppose economy . plan necessary to the burget, but they confess inability to prevent the raid. Representative Langley resents the “pork barrel” suggestion. He sa the time has arrived when the gov- ernment must erect buildings to take care of its business, while in many instances money is badly needed to repair and improve existing structures A merry scramble is now going on among members of the house for a siice of the melon. Most of the mem bers have filed with Mr. Langl committee requests for appropriations accompanied by forcible arguments why these should be granted. Now Mr. Langley and his associates are busy separating the wheat from the chaff and outlining recommendations to be submitted to the budget bureau. It is proposed to use most of the money for erection of post offices de- spite the fact that there is in the treasury department $15,000,000 ap- propriated for that purpose in 1913 which has not been spent, since it has been impossible to award the con- tracts within the appropriations.

Mr. Hanson states that his business needs practically all of his time and he could not do Jus- tice to the office this term were he to be elected. This takes two of the G. 0. P, pos- sible candidates out of the race and leaves Lewis 8. Mills, acting school visitor of the town a clear field. Mr. Mills is understood to be out strong for the office although he has not made any public statements in regards to it. Mr. Hills was the first one the G. O. P. party mentioned when it was | heard that Mr. Hanson would drop out this year and the committee fully °xpected him to accept. They were lisappointed, however, in his flat re- fusal when he would not listen to their arguments. They are optimistic, | however, and look forward to him | hanging his mind. Mr. Hills is also on the school committee and is well ersed on political affairs of Plain- lle. The democrats are scouting around for a candidate and Joseph McCarthy understood to be lnoked upon with ‘avor. Mr. McCarthy is vell known n town and has always taken an im- portant part in the town's affairs. He is a member of the school commit- ‘ee also. Both parties are expected to an- ounce the caucuses for nominating representatives within a week or so. Adjourned Meeting Tonight.

By defeating the Yankees in the fifth game of the series, the Giants teally went over in four straight. The triumph of the Glants makes the third time in the history of the classic that a team has won the title without suffering a defeat. Back in 1907 the Chicago Cubs defeated De- troit in five games, one of them being a 12-inning tie. In this game Catcher Schmidt of Detroit, had a passed ball cn a third strike that would have re- tired the side in the ninth inning and given Detroit a victory. This was the first game of the series. The Cubs then went out and took four straight. In 1914, the despised Boston Braves deefated the Philadelphia Athletics in four straight. The result of that ser- ies was one of the.biggest upsets in the history of baseball. that year were one of the strongest clubs ever gathered together by Con- nie Mack. Third Unique Feat The overwhelming defeat of the Yankees in the 1922 series is the third of the unique feats. The Giants, after winning the first, tied the second, and then ended the series hy taking three more in a row. While the Yankees were not favored to win as strongly as the Athletics in 1914, still practical- ly every baseball expert of any prom- inence in the country liked the chances of the American leaguers. The Giants won because it proved to be by far the better team. It played heads up baseball all the way, showed plenty of courage in coming from be- hind, got excellent pitching from a staff supposed to be very weak, and in addition got all the breaks of the tame as a winning team usually does. The Yankees, on the other hand, layed far below form. In all prob- ability the American leaguers could not have won had they been at the top of their game, however, had the played ordinary baseball the series would have been far more bitterly contested. Yanks Lacked Brains I'nquestionably the Yankee club has much ability. During the American league season the team constantiy han- dicapped its play by often doing the The Athleticss of | Miss Mary Goodwin, sister of | wrong thing.

While not in his Dbest form, it looked as if he might win when he went into the eighth inning with a lone run lead. As in the first game, the Giants beat him hy ing three runs in the fatal eighth. It was Kelly, who shared home run honors with Babe Ruth a year ago, who delivered the final blow. Four of the hits Kelly made in the series were at the expense of Bush.

Giants Best Team The result of the 1922 series leaves no question as to which is the better team. Often the inferior team wins a world series, but the Giants richly deserve the honors they have won.

THOMPSON SCORES WAR AS BLUNDER Chicago Mayor Tells Germans That America Made Ghastly Error In Entering It. Oct. 9.—Mayor William made a speech yes- terday at the celebration of ‘*‘Der Deutschen Tag,” on the municipal pier by Germans in Chicago in which he denounced America’s entrance in- to the World War and defended his in the matter. He was heered frequently. yor Thompson said that both he and his audience realized the ‘‘mis- take' that America had made in en- tering the World War. “I fought against it Chicago, Hale Thompson with all my have not changed my views one atom,” he said.
