Numerous inqueries have beenpouring into the stadium head-quarters and this newspaper re-yarding various rulings of the contest particularly regarding theQueen's companion. The winner ofthe contest is not compelled to in-clude the runner-up or secondplace winner in her award .eitherin the trip to Bermuda or cash ifshe selects it, unless she so de-sires. The rules wex*e made publicthrough the press at the beginningof the contest to that effect. In theevent the winner docs not selectthe runner-up as her companion,the second place winner will re-ceive an engraved pass for herselfand two companions, good for oneyear from the dedication of theStadium.
A section of the grandstand willbe designated as the Throne orRoyal Section. This is to be oc-cupied by the Queen, who also se-cures an engraved pass for her-self and ten guests for any eventduring her reign as Queen. Thisthrone or royal section is to beshared by the runner-up, who isto be known and the lady-in-wait-ing and two guests with the samehonor and privelege as the queen.
The Crown and scepter, present-ed to the Queen, shall bo hers un-til her successor is elected. If shushould be defeated for reelection,she will relinquish the crown tothe successor.
"It is natural to assume," saidEdward Jordan, promoter of theStadium Commission, "that theQueen will extend all honors pos-sible to her Lady-in-Waiting at ;illtime, but, the Queen is not obli-gated to select the runner-up asher companion in any share of thecapital award."

"The operation of the TownshipS:-orr. a financial point of view de-mands rigid economy which canonly be attained by a unified di-rection and control over expendi-tures. We recommend that the ne-cessary steps be taken to put thefire districts under the direct con-trol of the Township committee.Whether the fire districts shouldbe maintained as special areas fortaxation is a question whichshould be left to the township todetermine. With the growth of theTownship the reason for their con-tinuance will, however become lessand less."

Re-presentatives of fire companies inthat area were present at theTownship meeting Monday nightand were told that there "was nothing official." However, it is knownthat the demands and recommendstions of the fiscal agents of theTownship will have to be met be-fore the refinancing plan can gointo effect completely.

FORDS, N. J.—The fire pre- defined and refers to "'firecrack-vention ordinance in connectionwith the sale of fireworks will bestrictly enforced for the Fourth ofJuly, according to a warning is-sued today by Chief of PoliceJames A. Walsh.
Chief Walsh points out that Ar-ticle six of the fire prevention or-dinance strictly prohibits the "manufacture of fireworks and posses-sion or display of fireworks forsale." The article also prohibitsthe "use or discharge of fireworksexcept that pyrotechnical displaymay be authorized by resolutionof the Township Committee whenunder the control of qualified in-dividuals and the time, place andmanner of such display is approv-ed by the Building Inspector."
Fireworks, in the ordinance, is

In other words, it looks as ifthe ''old-fashioned Fourth of July"is to be no more and Woodbridge,as far as the police are concerned,will have a "safe and sane" fourth.
The first prevention code wasadopted on May 20 of last year,and due to the fact that the mer-chants had been given very littlenotice, they were given permissionto sell out the stock on hand forthe last Independence Day.

Big As the UniverseDear Club Members:
ISN'T it wonderful, bow you canstart with any single depart-ment of human knowledge, and ifyou learn it well enough, it helps
you to under-stand the uni-verse better?
Maybe t h a tsounds a littlelike a sermon,but I was reallythinking aboutthe romance ofsomething w eusually considerpretty ordinary—food.
You would think that the scien-tists discovered it, judging fromwhat you read in advertisementsand articles. They have analyzedit, and found that a balanced dietmust contain umpty-seven kinds ofminerals, five or six vitamins, a )otof ami no-acids, and some otherthings. They have found out, forexample, that among the most im-portant foods are milk, fruits andvegetables.
But mothers have known, forlonger than any book records, thatmilk is good for babies, young folks,grownups and old folks. It didn'tneed any scientific discovery tolearn that.'
And since the days of our firsthairy ancestors, I imagine, ourgrandmothers gathered greens andmade salads and the like. As forVitamin D, the "sunshine vitamin"1,who invented sunshine anyhow, thescientists?
Ask a man to eat a couple ofammo-acids, and see what he says.
But give him a glass of cool, de-licious milk on a hot day, and downit will go, amino-acids, vitamins,minerals and all; and like as nothe'll ask for more!

The delegation of cafe owners '.vho had persuadedBlackie to run as Alderman to enforce fire regula-tions, now tell him that he mus. withdraw his can-didacy. Burley is too powerful for them to figU.Perhaps their places will be the next to be raided. Butwhen Blackie stubbornly refuses, they withdrawtheir support, suggesting that his reason for con arm-ing the battle is because of Mary.
The next evening Mary sings the finale of the opera,then, as Burley smiles down at her she steps to the foot-lights and announces her engagement to him. Theaudience shouts its good wishes as the curtain descends.Burley tells Mary of the surprise he has planned. Tocelebrate their engagement they are going to the Chick-c sis Ball where arTannual award is made for the best cafti>nuv in San Francisco.
At. Ihe Chickens Ball, Mary is told by Delia, an oldfriend of Blackie's, how Burley has had his place raidedso that he cannot compete for the large prize that wouldsave him from ruin. Stepping up to the stage to sing,Mary announces that she is representing the Paradise.To overwhelming applause, she wins the cup of goldpieces for Blackie. Just then he rushes in.
Brutally, he snatches the cup and gives it to another caiS pro-prietor. Mary turns away, humiliated and heartbroken. Tfaemusic is playing when suddenly an ominous rumble is heard. Slowly;the walls begin to cave in. Shrieks and screams rend the air- It isan earthquake! A chunk of plaster fells Blackie to the floor. Helies there, unconscious, as Mary is dragged out by Burley. Will-she ever see Blackie again? Look for the next thrilling and.concluding episode of "San Francisco."

AT REGENT THEATRE
RAHWAY THEATRE, Railway."The Moon's Our Home" Walter
Wagner's Latest production forParamount, opens at the RahwayTheatre with that capable screenactress, Margaret Suliavan in thestar role.
Directed by William A. Setterfrom a Faith Baldwin story, "TheMoon's Our Home" deals with twointernational celebrities who havelearned to hate each other merelyon the strength of their reputa-tions.
With Margaret Lindsay andGlenda Farrell teamed as a pair ofyoung women lawyers "The law inHer Hands," the new First Nation-al comedy drama which comes tothe Rahway Theatre is gay withfun and vivid with swift and dra-matic action.
The picture literally starts witha bang when a racketeer hurls abomb into a restaurant where thetwo feminine lawyers are toeingphotographed at luncheon by anews cameraman.

Hopeful that the State's potato-growers will be satisfied with theirmillion-dollar rain last week-enda.nd keep the well-known farmer'scurse off the weather this Sunday,Garden State Racing Associationofficials were rushing plans todayfor their third menu of the seasonat the Woodbridge Speedway.Time trials begin at 1 o'clock, thefirst heat o£ the 80-lap menu oimotor madness an hour and a haltlater.
The experiment announced for(he show washed away in lastweek's downpour—slashing pricesin half to 55 and 35 cents—will betried this Sunday with keen curi-osity as to the result. In this, theivfifth year, the reckless GardenStaters have proven their youngindependents rank with the best inIht loopy business ot hotfootingfragile racing cars around dirtturns. Two spectacularly success-ful shows have demonstrated theclass of the racing and the leagueof New Jersey daredevils newhopes to build a large audience ofnew fans, via the new popularprices.
The tariff cut originally wasproposed to meet the competitionoi' Langhorne, which is running onSunday, but if the ians show theylike the idea o£ tickets nominallypriced, the new low rates will bemaintained for the balance of theseason.
More Gadgets!One good result, Sunday's post-
ponement did turn up. It gave tholads who are still fiddling with im-provements on their racing hacksan additional week to play witnmore gadgets. Results i,n both ofthe shows thus far have been sur-prises, neither Al Lattanzio of NewBrunswick nor Johnny Matera ofElizabeth being figured to win.
Both were driving cars that ad-mittedly lack the straightawaynap of other jobs in the field but
their ability to fishtail around thetricky Speedway curves with theleast possible loss of distance andmomentum outstripped opponentswho were certainly faster in atraight run. The boys sitting be-
hind better motors didn't like theidea at all and they promptlymarched back to the shops deter-mined to get still more soup intohacks which arc already the bestever to race for the Association.
The old college spirit seems tobe an influence this year, too, sincetho American Racing Associationclan from Connecticut and LongIsland, which confidently predict-ed a clean-up on the Garden Starters' own clay loop, has not thus farwon a top-money prize although inthe heats individual helmsmenhave done very well indeed.
ARA ThreatensWith the experience in the bank
ed Speedway's pecularities theyhave gained in the two shows wonby Lattanzio and Matera, theARA's pet speed-maniacs shouldbe something more than a threatand maybe even a positive men-ace this week.
