37 23 YcarsAgo-Wcck of Dec. 1938 THE SUNDAY HOME NEWS NEW BRI N'SWICK. Sl'NDAY. DECEMBER 8. 1KU Robbers Halt Freight Near Metuchen 4 i 1 A precedent-breaking suggestion, that the New Brunswick Chamber of Commerce establish a New York office, came from C.

Raymond Lyons, local attorney and former assemblyman. He saw such an office as a valuable aid in bringing industry to this city. Another personality in the news was Waylande Gregory, Bound Brook sculptor, who was producing 12 terra cotta statues for "The Fountain of the Atom," for the 1939 World's Fair in New York. A Highland Park man, John Kohler of 232 Montgomery was killed in an automobile accident in Spring Lake. He was thrown from a car when it collided with a delivery truck.

New Plant Erected A new plant in North Brunswick was being constructed by the Mutual Sunset Lamp while in New Brunswick two additions were started at the Universal Plastics Co. plant in Jersey Avenue. The expansion was expected to bring the firm's payroll to 300. A 71-car freight train of the Pennsylvania Railroad was halted near Metuchen by robbers who cut an air hose, then broke open a car believed to contain cigarettes and tobacco. Footprints and tire marks at the Grove Street grade crossing.

where the train was halted, indicated that several men had participated in the robbery. Tw Rutgers professors played leading parts in the organization of the New Jersey Council of Housing Authorities, with Dr. Clarence E. Partch named temporary president and Dr. Eugene E.

Agger, a member of the State Housing Authority, chairman of the board. A 15-year-old Edison youth, Steven Kady, was killed in a hunting accident in Meadow Road. The death came when a gun carried by Kady's companion, Victor Pinonek, discharged as it was dropped hen Pinonek tripped. Mayor John F. Fitzpatrick of South River was seriously injured when his car struck a heavy protective gate at the South River drawbridge.

He told first aid men he had fallen asleep while driving home from Perth Amboy. Two Sayreville firms, E. I. DuPont de Nemours and Hercules Powder reported progress in eliminating pollution from their plants. In Middlesex Borough, Police Chief Frederick Ehrenbach, 46, died of injuries received in an automobile accident more than a month previous.

His car had skidded in Bound Brook Road and struck a utility pole. vv Merchants i k. A 1 PORK SIIGULDSRS Chessmaster Challenges 60 i1 3' Fresh lb. Si PORK SKGULDZRS Smoked 10 -7 Ha.

Pa'l Benko, one of the world's great chessmasters, will challenge 60 New Jersey players to a simultaneous match Friday at 7:30 p.m. in the cafeteria of the national office of the Boys Scouts of America, Routes 1 and 130, North Brunswick. Benko, a native of Hungary, began playing chess at the age of 12. When he was 17 he had achieved a master's rating. At 20 he won the Hungarian national championship, in a country well known for its fine players.

Drew With Champ In a one-time meeting with the Russian Mikail Botwinnik, former world's champion, he drew. Among his many championships, he won the United States Open in 1960 and was twice a finalist in world championship matches. Unlike many international grand masters who devote full time to chess, the 35-year-old Benko finds time for only an hour or two of practice a day. The rest of his time is given over to running his own business as an investment counselor in New York City, where he also lives. Benko came to the United States from Hungary six years ago during the revolution and is-now an American citizen.

He is rated among the top players in this country, along with Bobby Fischer, the current U. S. champion, and Samuel Reshevsky, who formerly held the title. On Dec. 15 Benko will compete with these men for the U.

S. championship. Among an estimated 150 million chess players in the world, about 40 are presently rated as international grand masters a title that Benko now holds. Asked what accounted for his success and the success of any chess player Benko said that great enthusiasm for the game is the first requisite. "Then you must study chess books and play as many opponents as often as you can," he added.

Though he does not specialize in blindfolded chess playing, he has on a few occasions beaten six opponents at one time playing this way. But he discounts his ability at this type of chess. "One master I know played blindfolded against 53 opponents and beat them all," he said. Russians Dominate The Russians now dominate the chess world and hold the world championship, but Benko believes the United States has some of the strongest players in the world and could eventually win the title. "You must remember," he said, "that in Russia the chess players are sponsored by the government and are very well treated.

And in Russia it is a national sport popular as baseball is in this country with 70 million people playing. The U. S. has only about 20 million active players." Those interested in watching the match may do so by paying a 50 cent fee towards a 1964 year's membership in the East Brunswick Chess Club, sponsoring the match. Anyone desiring to play should notify chairman Don Ryder of 384 Ryders Lane, East Brunswick.

The East Brunswick Chess Club is sponsored by the East Brunswick Recreation Commission and holds meetings at the Veterans of Foreign Wars Post 133, Cranbury Road, East Brunswick, Wednesday nights from 7:30 to midnight. Farm Safety Is Stressed WASHINGTON "You can take safety with you," is the message the U.S. Department of Labor is trying to get across to more than one million youngsters under 18 who "hire out" for all kinds of jobs on farms every year. The work experience is fine, but some jobs can be dangerous, the Department cautions in a leaflet described as a pocketful of safety tips, just issued. With frustrating persistence, accidental death rates in agriculture continue to rank third among major industries over 3,000 people are killed and nearly 300,000 are disabled in farmwork each year.

New and different machines and farming methods can be particularly hazardous for inexperienced youth whose immaturity in judgment only increases the chance of work accidents. "Going to Do Farmwork? Take Safety Along" is the title of the new leaflet, especially suited for handout during job registration or at farmwork sites. It gives a series of common sense "dos and don'ts" to safeguard the youngsters engaged in a variety of farm tasks working around machines and animals, using hand-tools and ladders, and performing the hundred and one jobs that involve lifting everything from boxes or bags to pails or pitchforks. The importance of proper clothing to protect youngsters from sun, insects, poisonous weeds and chemicals, are tips offered along with friendly advice on the need to get plenty of rest and nourishment to provide the energy needed to prevent accidents and increase production on farm jobs.
