The Central National Bank of Yonkers, N.Y., get tired of making change for its customers, so It did the next best thing — let the patrons make their own change. A wood table top fitted with four glass tops containing quarters, dimes, nickels and pennies was placed in the lobby of the bank. The customers drop their fifty-cent pieces or one or five dollar bills into the slots set back on the table, then scoop up their change and go their way. The bank president explained, **We don ’ t watch them because we think people are honest. ” The bank has reported that the honor system is working perfectly. RESCUED FROM GAS FUMES ...

Miss Delores Hcisler clings tightly to a fireman rescuing her. Ammonia gas swept through the second floor of the plant, overcoming flve others of the women employees at the plant. Also, two firemen were overcome by the fumes, and another worker at the plant was burned by flames. Bricktown Sports Continued from page 6 FROM OUTSIDE NEW YORK STATE WHO ARE INELIGIBLE IN THEIR OWN STATE SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO PLAY WITHOUT AN INTERVENING WAITING PERIOD THAT WOULD DETERMINE WHETHER TRANSFERS ARE “ ATHLETIC TRAMPS ” OR BOYS SEEKING A VALID EDUCATION. THERE IS NO SUCH RULE, OF COURSE, BECAUSE THE STATE BE LIEVES IN THE INTEGRITY OF ITS SCHOOLS. Some of the judges who sat on Ralph ’ s case are wise to the ways of the world. They brush shoulders with men who have made mistakes. They know men who have taken other identities voluntarily. They regard them as friends. Was Mickey Cochrane, a college graduate, despised because he played in the Eastern Shore League under an assumed name to pre serve his amateur standing while a collegiate? Did Judge Landis blacklist him, the late Eddie Collins, and Jimmy Foxx for doing the the same thing? Did Fordham ex pel Borowy for pitching for money for the Bushwicks while still a col legiate athlete? Did Seton Hall oust Bob Davies from the basketbaTl squad after he had played profes sional baseball at Nyack? As we recall it, all these men were or are highly regarded. But they were guilty of a violation They did it voluntarily. These are the things to be remembered when the judges sit. It is not a perfect world. MRS. SCHOU STRICKEN Mrs. Sophus M.

Mr. Wheeler, who is employed at Rockland State Hospital, Orange burg, and resides at Home 11 there, formerly lived in Hacketts- town, N. J. The family came to northern Rockland County several years ago, but after the accident, for some unexplained reason, in quiries for his next-of-kin were made in the Hackettstown area. Mrs. Hendershot said the oper ators — she believes there were three — made numerous calls in the Hackettstown and Washington, N. J., to locate relatives or clues lead ing to them. Finally, at 11 a. m., a call got through to Mrs. Hender shot advising her of her son ’ s ac cident. “ I am too overwhelmed by their work to tell them exactly how I ^eel,\ Mrs. Hendershot said. “ But it is a wonderful feeling to know that they worked so persistently to help. ’ ’ She said she had called the Rockland County telephone office to give her thanks. Mr. Wheeler was very seriously injured in the accident, which oc curred about 3 o ’ clock, and went into deep shock and his heart ac tion was so fast that it was feared he would not recover. Mrs. Hend ershot said she received a call from the Railway Express Office here at 8 o ’ clock notifying her of the accident. Details were meagre, and her first thought was that her son had been hit by a train. “ I don ’ t know how that call came to the office, ’ ’ she said, “ but I appreciate everyone ’ s help.\ Mr. Wheeler was driving alone when the collision occurred. His car smashed head-on into a pole on Western Highway. He was tak en to Nyack Hospital and has a fractured skull and a concussion of the brain. Mrs. Hendershot said her son was stricken with polio in his youth and was given up as a hope less case. Persistent treatment by a masseuse, who later became a hopeless cripple herself, and a New Jersey doctor enabled her son to regain his health over a period of many years. Although still handi capped, he is able to live a full life, Mrs. Hendershot said. Prior to going to Rockland State, Mr. Wheeler worked at the New York State Rehabilitation Hospital, West Haverstraw, and at Letch- worth Village. He is Mrs. Hender- shot ’ s youngest son. His sister, Miss Jean Wheeler, was graduated from Haverstraw High School and is at tending New York State Teachers College at Potsdam. GOOD SAMARITAN HOSPITAL NOTES Alterations in the operating room wing of the hospital are just about completed. The operating room suite is now separated from the rest of the fourth floor by a large set of swinging doors which are always kept closed. The actual rooms used for sur gery have been air conditioned so that an even temperature will be maintained the year-round. The doctors ’ dressing room has been enlarged and soon will be ready for occupancy. One of the simpler alterations which has proved of great benefit has been the installation of small observation windows in the doors leading to the various operating rooms, permitting the personnel to check on the identity of persons using the room without opening doors. Those of us who have been with the hospital over a period of many years were chagrined to see the new explosion-proof linoleum which was laid over the beautiful tile floors and terrazzo, installed when the hospital was built. For many years we had been proud of these floors, since they were the latest and best at the time the building was constructed. Since that time modern engineering practice requires the use of an electrical conducting floor covering in order to eliminate any possi bility of fire or explosion. Un fortunately, the new conductor floor coverings are anything but pretty, being a plain dead black Haverstraw _________ Michael F. Hughes of Hudson avenue celebrated his birthday Monday.
