Material for the oon- struction work was received the early part of the week but: it was not until today that the workmen'were sent by the.company. The building will be of wood with a concrete foundation. One of the most noteworthy im-: provements about the town, outside of the waiting room, is the repair work on Farmington road. Ever singe the heavy automobile travel of last sum- mer the road has been in fearful con- dition and to take a trip over it was like riding the ocean waves. Town teams have been engaged for the past week in putting a dr¢ssing of heavy crushed stone on- thé highway and this will topped oft with some of a lighter de. It remains to be seen whether the early spring\travel will tear thif dressing up and leave the road in the same condition as it was before the improvement. First Selectman W. I. Alling and Superin- tendent Skinner have charge of the work. There has been some talk of having the state take over Farming- ton road as it iz the main highway between New Britain and all points south. If the state road department could be induced to take over the road the chances are that it would only be a short time before a fine concrete highway would be built thys doing away with spring and fall re- pair work. The concrete roads that the state:are now building on the ‘main highways are the only ones that withstand the wear and tear of auto— mobllt travels! Basketball Tonight. . A basketball game of more than unusual interest will take place in the town hall tonight when a team representing the Boys' Debating club of East Berlin will play the local Boy Scouts. Last week the East Ber- lin team plaved a team from Ken- sington and as the game resulted in a tie the playoff ‘will come next. week. As the East Berlin and Kensington game was for the championship of the town the scouts have an excellent chance of annexing the title for them- selves by capturing tonight's game. Both teams have put in several nights of practice this week and reports in- dicate that one of the fastest gamus ever seen on the local floor will be staged. The scouts have played fewer sames than their rivals but the im- provement noted in each game shows that the East Berlin ‘five wili have to travel some if they Intend to cap- tare the game.

The Pldinville boys fought them at every stage of the game and while the score was close at all times, the odds favored the home team almost from the begin- ning. Since the Plainville team had been strengthened by the addition of new men the clubs represeting the two places have met but twice. Forest- ville captufed the first game and #@c- companied by a large delegation of enthusiastic rooters the village play- ers came here last night confident of success. The Plalnville contingent, however, was determined to give them the battle of their lives and from the time the referce blew his whistle for the beginning of play until the game was ended the local boys worked like Trojans. Skill and speed characterized their play and the For- estville boys were outclassed. The visitors were unfortunate in shooting, missing & number of baskets by a close margin, but they were kept so well covered by their opponents that they had but little time for delibera- tion in attempting to score. Although the local team's season officially closed last night, there is talk of a third e to settle the se- ries between Forestville and Plainville fand if arrangements can be made the boys will meet again on a neutral floor. . The Forestville quintet is made up of more experienced men than are on the local team but nevertheless Plainville is confident that another contest would show supremacy for this town, - Manager J. L. Ahlquisf announced today that over $25 was cleared from last night’s game. The clyb has been supported during the season largely through the receipts of the basketball games, which have been well patron- ized. It is expected that the club's sea- son .will be declared ended next week. Class Director Schade is to finish his work by April 1st and he has ar- ranged to have but two more meet- ings of the juniors. The seniors held their final session last week. As an experiment the town a year ago gave the club the free use of the Town hall for twelve months, the vot- ers to decide at the expiration of that period as’to the advisability of mak- ing the privilege permanent. Direct- ors of the club believe the club has been a success and they are hopeful that the town will allow them to use the hall again next year. Get Spring Fever. Spring fever made big inroads on the working force at the transter sta- tion of the New Haven road yesterday, twenty of the. men employed In truck- ing freight giving up their places after the pay was distributed last night. As a, resuit of the Wwholesale resig- nations, the curb stones about the center were decorated this morning with a number of former railroad employes who were basking in the sunshine. Admittance to the saloons ‘was refused to most of them and as a consequence the authorities' had no trouble with them, at least up to noon. Prior May Serve.

Desiring the testimony of the sur- geon who performed an operation on John Carlo of this place, Cammission- er George B. Chandler yesterday af- ternoon continued until tomorrow morning the hearing concerning Car- 10’s claim against the Trumbull Elec- tric company for compensation for a period during which he was ill. Car- lo was hurt at the company’s factory last August and, according to his claim, a rupture deweloped from the injury, necessitating an operation. The Travelers’ Insurance company, insurer of the loge® concern, declined to pay the claim on the grounds that Carlo had the rupture before he was injured and that he was not entitled to compensation. To clear up this point, the commissioner decided to call in the surgeon who performed the operation and he ordered a postponement of the hearing until tomorrow. Babcock Will Filed.
