Help Fill 

Xmas Baskets 

Citizens casting their eyes 

around in all food stores will 

find baskets with the sign, 

"C'mon let's start to do our 

part." This is a part of Millburn's 

good cheer program for 

the Holiday Season so that all 

Millburn families will be well 

cared for at Christmas. 

, By obeying the slogan residents 

will be helping the Neighborhood 

House, the Junior Service 

League of Short Hills and 

the High School. The High 

School with its Christmas baskets, 

its toys and its Kiddie 

Party, has also taken on the 

Kits from Home movement for 

every former student now In 

the army and will again be 

sending packages at Christmastime. 

IN CASE OF AN ALARM 

Above all keep calm. Don't allow yourself to get in a panic. 

Don't aid in the creation of panic. 

Get off the streets, but walk — don't run. Don't mingle 

with crowds. . 

If you are at home stay there. If near home, go there. Home 

may be the safest place. 

If more than a few minutes from home, seek shelter in 

nearest building. • 

Avoid the top and lower stories of buildings. Stay away 

from windows, doors and outside walls. Avoid elevators. 

Motorists should park cars and seek shelter. If alarm occurs 

at night — put out lights. 

IN CASE OF A RAID 

In your home — shut off all gas ranges; gas heaters; gas 

furnaces. 

Parents be prepared to receive their children, if school ts 

dismissed. 

Fill bath-tubs for water to use if mains break. 

Use rooms with fewest windows; well ventilated. Keep radio 

turned on. 

Keep .several receptacles filled with sand to cover Incendiary 

bombs that may fall. Don't use chemical extinguisher on 

bombs. If compelled to use water only spray it. Don't pour on, 

makes it worse. 

Avoid use of telephone. Co-operate with air-raid wardens. 

The above tiro only samples, but everybody should think of 

them. Air raids never arrive on schedule. A surprise is always 

intended. 

A planned procedure of your own is necessary, In which the 

foregoing — based on the experience of others, and common 

sense hs proved valuable. KEEP CALM.

Winner Goes 

To Annapolis 

Congressman Kean announced 

today, that Robert I. 

Boland, Jr., of Montclair, and 

Bruce ..A.. Winner of Millburn 

topped the list of 24 candidates 

who took his competitive examination 

for appointment to 

the United States Naval Academy. 

Kean has accordingly nom- 

' mated as principal candidates. 

Boland who had an average of 

88.14 and Winner who had an 

average of 87.57, to fill the two 

vacancies which will occur at 

the Naval Academy in June of 

next year. 

Winner, the son of Mr. and 

Mrs. Frank Winner of Pine 

street, Millburn is a graduate 

of Millburn High School. His 

brother also attended Annapolis-. 

, 

Ensign Marlln D. Clausner of 

the U.S.S. Simpson, who is 

from Seattle, Wash., is visiting 

with his aunt Mrs. M. E. Clausner 

of 27 South Mountain Avenue. 

F.B.I. Picks Up 

OneMan Here 

According to the Millburn 

Police blotter Joseph Gingele, 

care Of R. Nelson, Taylor road, 

Short Hills, a German upholsterer, 

was brought to headquarters 

by Sergeant Oscar 

Straub and special agents Huston 

and Hodgdon of the F.B.I, 

at 3:05 A. M. Tuesday morning 

for investigation by the 

F.B.I. It is said Mrs. Gingele is 

employed at the Nelson home. 

As the Millburn jail cells were 

undergoing a coat of paint, 

Gingele was held in the,Maplewood 

jail and later removed to 

Newark for further investigation. 

Millburn police have compiled 

a list of some fifteen Japanese 

in the Township, most of whom, 

are employed as servants. 

Keep Phones Clear . 

Residents are requested NOT 

to use telephones to call police 

headquarters, fire headquarters, 

the Local Defense office or 

other places to obtain information 

during an air raid alarm. 

Such calls only tend to disrupt 

normal business and delay any 

actual emergency calls. 

Millburn Calm In PFar; 

L oca I'Defense Is Rushed 

Air Warning Signals Now Announced and Other 

Plans Go Forward—Volunteer Workers 

Are Again Ashed To join Up 

Millburn's first air raid warning 

was issued here at 8:58 A. 

M. Wednesday morning when 

the police teletype flashed an 

alarm from Newark district 

headquarters, The all clear signal 

sounded shortly after 10:00 

o'clock. 

Public school pupils were sent 

to their homes according to a 

prearranged plan and auxiliary 

firemen and volunteers reported 

to the fire house in case of 

need. 

While no actual evidence of a 

real air raid was noticed in 

Millburn General Barber, head 

Of the Millburn Defense Council, 

stated this first warning 

was in no sense a test and was 

not treated that way either 

here or in surrounding towns. 

Evidence of confusion on 

Millburn streets was lacking, 

most going about their business 

as usual, although police and 

fire departments were ready to 

go Into action if the need 

arose. 

Short Blasts ' 

Mean Alarm 

Millburn's air raid alarm setup 

at present vis as follows: 

Alarm — intermittent blowing 

of. the fire siren for several 

minutes, combined with the 

tolling of church bells and short 

blasts on the Fandango Mill 

whistle. The all clear signal will 

be a two minute' continuous 

blast on the fire siren. 

This is probably temporary as 

several sections of the Township 

are unable to hear the fire 

siren. Chief Hayes is studying 

the possibility of either increasing- 

the sound of the present 

Firen or the placing of additional 

warning signals in outlying 

sections. 

Want Air 

Raid Wardens 

Guy R. Bpsworth Post, The 

American Legion, has for some 

time been cooperating with the 

(Continued on Page Fourteen) 

Millburn took America's entry 

into World War II quietly 

as nows of Japan's attack on 

Hawaii was flashed Sunday. 

Many missed first broadcasts 

but these soon caught up with 

the swift march of events. 

Not until Tuesday and its 

.sudden "test" radio air raid 

warning, did realization of the 

possibility of attack on the east-'" 

ern .seaboard sink into most 

Minds, 

Suddenly then all attention 

turned to local defense with 

questions as to work of the 

Local Defense Council. The 

local Council has appealed for 

air wardens and other workers 

but it too was unready for the 

sudden action. 

Special police for emergency 

have bee» hand picked, vehicles 

for possible use as ambulances 

have been listed and other work 

has gone forward. Air raid precautions 

have not been issued 

until now nor have warning . 

signals been published. 

Local defense is going to 

cost the community something, 

probably considerable. 

All that is available to date la 

$125. Volunteer air and fire 

wardens are wanted and men 

and women able and willing to 

serve can enlist at the headquarters 

at Washington School. 

As to ; Township schools the 

Defense Council says: 

"In the immediate future it 

may be necessary to conduct a 

number of emergency drills in 

our schools. The first general 

warning of an emergency willbe 

a number of short blasts on 

the local fire whistle, continuing 

for two minutes or longer. 

The Ail-Clear signal will be one 

long blast. 

"On the warning signal, pupils 

will go from classes to get 

wraps and immediately report 

to homerooms. They will then be 

evacuated to designated areas 

either inside or outside of the 

school building under the direction 

of teachers. Pupils will" 

remain in these areas under 

the supervision of teachers until 

an Ail-Clear signal is received 

or further directions by 

Local Defense Headquarters, or 

from the Government.

No Moving 

Permit Lull 

Millburn officials including 

the tax gatherer are watching 

the outcome of a recent Supreme 

court decision declaring 

unconstitutional community ordinances 

denying moving permits 

where personal taxes have 

not been paid. 

Such an ordinance lias been 

in force here for several years 

past ar.d thousands of dollars 

in taxes have been collected. 

The test case was brought in 

Rockaway and die court held 

the law made no provision for 

this method of delinquent tax 

collection. 

Permits such as this it was 

held could not run rampant at 

the will of governing bodies for 

if such were the case, it might 

soon be found necessary to have 

permission to remove to as well 

as from one community to another. 

The decision was brought to 

the attention of the Township 

Committee and it in turn referred 

the matter to Township 

Attorney Wortendyke. It is understood 

to have been his opinion 

the Court of Errors and Appeals 

would be asked to pass 

finally upon the matter and 

that any local action might be 

held in abeyance pending such 

appeal. 

Moving permits here are still 

required and issued only as delinquency 

is removed as van 

owners are learning. One such 

was stopped from loading Monday, 

later going to Town Hall 

and getting the necessary grant 

without service of a summons. 

This latter is a police matter • 

and in view of the decision, officers 

are said to be avoiding 

compulsion in favor .of persua- 

. sion.

WINDLESS CABINS, By Mark Van Doren — The boy 

was good and he killed a man who showed a side of evil. 

How can life RO on with the companionship of such a memory? 

There is more than this to the strangely haunting new 

novel. "Windlass Cabins", by Mark Van Doren, poet and 

novelist, but -this is the dark core of the booK. And in exploring 

the problems of the boy, Mr. Van Doren explores the 

nature of fear and sin and conscience and the power of love 

to embrace them. The mood o-f tha boolc is exciting In a. 

hypnotic way. trapping the reader beyond the last page In a 

world of realities made up of hidden things which touch the 

hea-nt of life. _ , 

ON THE NIGHT OF THE FIRE — By P. L. Green — 

One way that a man may discover whether he la as clever 

and resourceful as he privately appraises himself is by committing' 

a. crime. If lie hasn't bean honest with himnylf, ha 

will be sorry when it is too late, This Is the gist of F. Ii. 

Green's "On the Night of the Fire", -wherein « good barber 

metaphorically outs his throat for a fistful of banknotes. It 

was one of those unnecessary 'crimes which make worse 

crimes inevitable, and Mr. Green has depicted Its consequence* 

with unrelenting tension.

Neighborhood 

House Christmas 

As Christmas approaches, the 

Neighborhood House becomes 

the scene of intense activity. 

The Family Welfare Committee 

will line-up Christmas dinner 

baskets and fill them, distributing 

the food donated as fairly 

as possible. Items lacking for 

balanced baskets will be supplied 

by drawing on money donated 

for the purpose. Girl 

Scouts will decorate the baskets 

with Christmas greens and 

finally Kris Kringle boys from 

the High School, will take them 

to their destinations. 

By using the Neighborhood 

Association as a clearing house, 

duplication and confusion are 

avoided and the most effective 

means afforded for sharing 

Christmas cheer with those less 

fortunate. 

Xmas Decorating 

Brightens Park 

For the first time the Recreation 

Department is decorating 

the Millburn avenue entrance 

to Taylor Park with the 

cooperation of Jersey Ceirtral 

Power "& Light Company. Two 

large arches will be constructed 

over the entrance to the Park. 

The arches will be covered with 

greens and decorated with 

colored lights. 

As in the-past the Recreation 

Department will decorate the 

large Community tree on Main 

street and the interior of the 

Recreation House will again 

this year present a picture of 

holiday finery.

Kiddie Party 

(Continued from Page One) 

Springfield Townships under 

the age of sixteen are welcome 

and it is the desire of members 

of both posts that as many 

children as possible attend. 

Sid Bratter, manager of the 

local "Warner Brothers Theatre, 

has arranged a program suitable 

for child entertainment 

that will keep every boy and 

girl on the edges of their seats 

from beginning to end. The 

Posts, also, have arranged with 

Santa Claus to be on hand to 

pass out candy. 

Joan A. Stewart 3rd, chairman 

of Millburn Township, 

Committee, will be there to 

greet the kiddies and give them 

a word of cheer and the Chaplain 

of the local Legion Post, 

. iere's a gift witnVflJifr*the^whofe family will enjoy. Better 

light for father to read his newspaper by, eye relief for 

mother with her sewing and, most important of all, good

Rev. Hugh Dickenson, will lead 

in prayer and instill Christmas 

spirit in the children. 

Safety of the kiddies has always 

been uppermost in the 

minds of the Legionnaires .so 

arrangements have been made 

with Boy Scout Troops of both 

Townships to have some of 

their boys at the theatre to 

handle the children while in 

the building and the Millburn 

Junior Police imder the guidance 

of the local Police Department, 

will handle the children 

in the immediate vicinity of the 

theatre. Some of Chief Hayes' 

Fire Auxiliary will also assist 

in helping distribute the candy 

keeping a watchful eye on the 

younger children and see that 

all fire regulations are strictly 

followed. 

The Girl Mariners of the Girl 

Scouts had a helping hand in 

this party by boxing the candy 

under Mrs. Cowen of the Neighborhood 

Association.

Cage Squad 

Takes Shape 

Present indications point to 

a varsity basketball squad at 

MiUburn High of approximately 

fifteen men with fifteen or 

twenty more making up the 

second team mostly sophomores 

and juniors who show 

promise for 1943. 

Included on the varsity at 

present are Don Marshall, Jim 

Tedesco, Vic Lincoln, Eugene 

Conaales and Bill Johnwon as 

forwards, Jim Bown as the 

only center, and Ernie Faenza, 

Bob Snowclen, Jini Koeniger, 

Henry Pratt? and Joe 'MeCabe 

as guards. 

SPORTS 

Marshall, Tedesco and Lin- 

• coin are waging a tight battle 

for the starting forward posts 

with Faenza and Pratt leading 

the guard candidates for a 

starting position. 

Coach Frank Focht, admitted 

to being optomistic about this 

year's squad which has shown 

Hashes of good form in scrimmages 

against Union, Irvington 

Vocational and Linden. Additional 

practice sessions with 

East Orange, Central and Irvington 

will be arranged before 

the official opening game in 

January. 

The addition of Jack Becker 

as part time coach will enable 

Focht to give his entire atten- 

tion to his varsity, depending 

on Becker to develop the juniors 

and sophomores into real 

prospects -for next year.

Undefeated In 

6 Man Football 

Versatility in attack, coupled 

with sound football defense has 

featured the play of the Buxton 

Country Day School team, 

of Short Hills, enabling -them 

to complete a season of unde-, 

feated and untied games. With 

a total of 101 points against 24, 

and a check against the records 

of all other teams which play 

Six-Man, as far as can be obtained, 

the school lays claim to 

the Metropolitan championship 

for its sextet. 

In a list of the victims of 

Buxton may be found the 

Brooklyn Friends' School, Mc- 

Êtirriey Prep, Montclair High's 

Six-Man, Collegiate Preparatory, 

and the Wardlaw School, 

i of Plainfield, by forfeit. Comparative 

scores, show a distinct 

edge for the Buxton boys over 

the field in this rapidly de- 

; veloping type of football. 

Six-man football requires effective 

action at all times by 

every player. For Buxton Captain 

Chris Slagle, now playing 

his fourth and final year, was 

the bulwark on defense, and his 

outstanding blocking enabled 

Doyle, a promising quarter 

'"» • frequently to outsprint 

?* field for long gains. Unusal 

accuracy has marked the 

passing attempts of Clancy Bolt, 

with the long arms of rangy 

ends Carlson and Williams as 

his most frequent and successful 

targets. Collins at the position 

of "short man" handled 

the ball with speed and elusive- 

ness on every play, contributing 

much to the sparking of the 

offense; Sehroeder was both a 

dependable center and back, 

picking up the few yards needed 

with helpful regularity, and 

Gigson, a first year substitute 

alternating at center and back, 

showed promise in his hard 

tackling and .blocking. 

The boys were guests of honor 

at a school dinner Friday at 

which, the above named eight 

received gold footballs as 

trophies of the team prowess.

Recreation Dept.
