The Starlight baseball team has been disqualified as a non-Kiddie Klub organization. This gives the second victory to the winners of last year's baseball contest, the Monarch Juniors of Brooklyn. We hope the whole team can be present to receive the Kiddic Klub baseball trophy, which will be permanently theirs should they scoré a third victory next year. My Dear Cousins: and neglected.

And all my spare moments are spent at Riverside Island with the children who have whooping cough ‘All of you who contributed to the Kidcie Klub Country Fund and thos» who would have liked to contribute will be glad to know that the kiddies at Riverside Island are getting so fat and rosy that they are a joy to see. Children who came there looking peaked and puny are now big, bounc- ing boys and girls. I love to go up there and play with them and read to them and help to make them the happy kiddies that they are But while I am with the sick Cousins I do not wish to get out of touch with the well ones. So I am saying please write to me and say what you are doing on your summer vacation. In the fall, when all the children at Riverside are cured and have been sent home to their mothers healthier kiddies than they have ever been be- fore, when all this is done then I will have a little vacation, too.

Action of the Law Enforcement Committee of the American Bar As- sociation in proposing that the power to admit to probation be withdrawn from Trial Judges {s opposed in a re- port of the New York State Proba- tion Commission which was made public yesterday. The report quotes letters from many Judges in New York who dis- approve the committee's proposal. Among reasons given are that judges familiar with the evidence in a case are more competent than a separate board to judge whether probation should be granted and that the pro- has been of vast bation system n0- cial and financial benefit to the State. ome of th quoted are Judge William Bayes, Judge Charles C. Nott and Judge Alfred J. Talley of New York Court of General Ses- Justice Franklin Chase Hoyt of New York Children’s Court; Justice Frederic Kernochan of the Court of Special Sessions, and Chief Magistrate William McAdoo. With the statement that ‘probation has passed through the testing or ex. perimental stage in New York State, the report cites figures from Oct. 1, 1907, to Sept. 30, 1921, showing the result of probation in the State for that period A total of 233,100 persons, 72,003, or 30.9 per cent. of whom were cnildren, were put on probation. Of the 161, 097 grown persons, 146,316, or about $1 per cent. were convicted of misde- meanors or lesser offenses, Only 1 adults, or 9 per cent. of the al, were convicted of felonies, Omitting the cases where final re- ults are unknown, 206,298 persons were discharged from probation dur- ing the fourteen years. In 159,989 cases, or 78.5 per cent., the résults of probation were satisfactory and the offenders were discharged as im- proved. Only 22,500, or 10.9 per cent., were rearrested and committed and 11,703, or 5.7 per cent., were dis- charged as unimproved, white 10,096, or 4.9 per cent., absconded. Probation officers during the period named made 306,942 preliminary In- vestigations and, since 1915, when the first visit records were started, have made 796,160 home and other visits. ‘hey also collected from probationers total of $5,504 Of this amount $4,726,388.52 was col- lected from non-supporting and de- husbands for family support, for fines paid in instal- 09,043.28 for restitution ion office so supervised the additional payment under court orders of $2,816,900.71, ‘The money was paid direct to beneficiaries POLICE SEIZE CAR, OWNER NOT NAMED Whiskey Said to Be in Auto of Rich Harrison Man. PROBATION IN N. Y. {MOTORIST KILLED CALLED SUCCESS | AS HE LEAVES CAR BY COMMISSION) — 10 PICK BERRIES Two Brooklyn Women Badly Hurt by Auto on Sidewalk. Antonio Tuanteri, fifty-one, of Ger- mantown, Pa., was killed by an auto- mobile near Hammonton, N. J., last evening while he was walking across @ road to pick blackberries. With his wife, three daughters and son, Tuan- teri was returning from Atlantic City when he saw the berries. Stopping his own automobile, he got out with- out noticing another car approaching. The car that struck him was driven by Thomas Skinner jr. of Hammon- ton. Two women were severely injured yesterday afternoon when a motorist ran his car upon the sidewalk at Humboldt and Devoe Streets, Brook- lyn, to avoid a collision with another car. Grace Satora, forty-four, and Mary Delario, twenty-six, both of No. 208 Skillman Avenue, were walking together when the automobile ran into them. They were taken to St. Cath- erine’s Hospital. Michael Pertallo, No. 125 Irving Avenue, Brooklyn, driver of the automobile, was sum- moned to appear in court, as was Abraham Leviten, No, 440 Gregory Avenue, Weehawken, operating the other car. Four men escaped ufter their auto- mobile knocked down a boy at Second Avenue and 117th Street last night, but their car was traced tu a garage and their arrest is expected. Their vic- tim was George Dimano, five, No. 250 East 117th Street. He was taken to Harlem Hospital, where his injuries were reported as not serious. Slippery streets in the afternoon caused a motorcar collision at Eastern Boulevard, near Baychester Avenue, Bronx. Three persons in a small au- tomobile were thrown twenty feet and severely hurt. ‘They are Alexander Oliver, twenty-five, No. 801 East 122d Street, fractured skull, cuts and bruises; Alfred Ce twenty-eight, No. 2483 Belmont Avenue, fractured skull and broken right arm, and Dan- iel Forlenza, thirty, No. 689 Ei 188th Street.

TI live just seven miles from WJZ, and some of my friends say that I can make use of the roof by merely scraping off a bit of the paint and soldering a lead-in wire to it. I just bought a home made detector and two step set.” Answer—I doubt very, much {f the roof will make an aertal in any senre of the word. A roof as you know is grounded in many places and consequently of no use as an an« tenna for radio reception. Don't waste time trying out makeshift aerials; put up a regular aerial and know that the results, if the directions for Its erec- tion are followed out are assured, and not problematical as the ymust be when trying out freak arrangements. F, R.—‘How can I distinguish a radio storage battery from an ordinary auto storage? What should the hydrometer readings be when the battery is fully charged? And when does it need re- charging? Which is more urate—a hydrometer or a volt meter?” Answer— A radio battery is equipped with heavy plates, so as to assure a regular dis- charge at a steady rate, whereas the battery used for the self-starting ap- paratus on an auto is designed with thin plates to glve a high rate of discharge. The hydrometer reading of any battery can be obtained from the history plate on the front of the battery. With the ordinary electrolyte the hydrometer reading for a fully charged battery should be 1.300.
