MILWAUKEE, August 24—The Health Department collected more reckets today to shoot through thae trees in Bay View. The department is not celebrating. Such is not for the vanquished. But it is determined to rout a clever horde of starlings and crackles whose pre-dawn choral drills have been re- sponsible for widespread insomnia among residents of the district. A barrage of flares put the birds to fiight Thursday night. Last night, however, they returned, but instead “of massing in one or two trees for close harmony, they dispersed into quartets, octets and ensembles spread over a large area. The result was a larger and still less appreciative audience. Dr. Stanley L. Pilgrim, who chose rockets over other suggested maneu- vers such as water and tin-can pound- ing, announced firmly, “There will be more Roman candles tonight.” POLICE AMONG MANY Heads Board LAW PROFESSOR = NAMED TO LABOR POST.

A glance from attending police silenced the speaker, and the defendant was escorted through the crowd without incident.
