RISKS HIS LIFE HELPING ANOTHER David Koppal Has an Exciting Time of It Last Night Great excit street last ment prevailed nizht, the events many with an opportunity to laugh and *‘thoroughly razz* a policeman, while others viewed the situation at a serious angle, believed themselves lucky that smore serious consequenc did not transpire. The affaii that sent the street into the said excitement happen- €d a few feet north of Myrtle street. It would have made a fine tting for Mack Sennett and the Keystone cops Halpern Badly Hurt. Isadore Halpern of 177 Hart street, had left his automobile standing on the street for a short time, and unknown to him the machine was in gear when he started to crank it. When the mo- tor started to whirl, the ‘car sped for- ward knocking Halpern down. inflict- ing a bruise aver the right eye and di locating his right ankle. At the New Britain General hospital where Halpern was taken, it thought that there may be some of a bullet just above the ankle David Koppal of 132 Hartford ave- nue, was nearby when the car startea on its way down the street, and he suc ceeded in gaing the driver's seat. The car was zigzagging around and Kop- pal was having quite a time of it ow- ing to his unfamiliarity .with the me- chanism. on Main furnishing Funny in Picture. The attention of Officer Tho Feeney was attracted about this time to the scene. The crowd gathered ana kept shouting to stop the car. Officer Feeney thinking that an attempt was being made to steal the machine, ana with Halpern hanging on to it, he grab- bed his revolver and fired two shots into the rear tire. When the machine was finally stopped, the officer then act- ed his worst Like Cavalry Soldier. According to an eye witness, Feeney grabbed Koppal by the throat, while he applied the handcuffs to him. and then marched him to the police station triumphantly. Seeing the action of the policeman, one of the best known busi- ness men north of the railroad station also went to the police station where he explained the whole affair with the re sult that Koppal was turned loose. Two Sides to Case. The case presents two sides. There are many who are criticizing the officer for his actions, believing that he lost his head completely when it would seem as though a little judgment would have averted such a scene. Then there is the other side. The officer it is admitted, was some distance away from the scene and on reaching the spot, he saw a car racing alons with a stranger trying te master it. He, according to his defend- ers, did the proper thing in acting as he did. It is argued that had a theft been committed and the thief escaped, the officer would have subjected himself to a reprimand from his superiors Supernumerary Officer Thomas Rous- kle was near at hand at the time, and he made a gallant effort to get to the car and stop it. WOOD-FORBES MISSION ENDS Commission to Investigate Philippine Conditions Rapidly Collects Data for President Harding—10 Days More. Manila, Aug. 23.—The personal in- vestigation of Philippine conditions by the Wood-Forbes mission practi- cally closed today with the exception of gathering a few ioose ends. The mission sailed from Jolo still with a number of islands to visit, but the conditions in the unvisited probably will have no important bear ing on the final report to the presi- dent. During the next ten sion will visit Sis Tawi Tawi and British North Borneo. On the return trip it will touch Palawan and Culion. Today Gen. Wood drove several miles from Jolo to visit the house | which was his official residence while he was engaged in the Philip- pine campaigns.

Tentative Plans. The tentative plans are said to be in case of the committee's anticipated favorable report, of which there does not appear to be any doubt, to oper- ate through local businessmen’'s or- nizations. In New Britain the nec- ary steps to iterest taxpayers and voters as well as businessmen would be taken by the Chamber of Com- nerce Fi Makin Investigates. Secretary Ray L. Makin, of the lo 1l chamber of commerce, has inves- tigated this work on his own accord and is enthusiastically in favor of it. e thinks it would be a wonderful hiny for the community, if all ichievement clubs in this city could ho concentrated under one head, and operated with the approval and as- 1stance of the municipal government. At present there are various rchievement clubs which have no di- rect connection with gach other. Miss Miller has charge of the achievement clubs on the city playgrounds, Rev. Frederick H. Wilkins is managing several clubs at the Children's Home and has just closed his most success- ful season at the dailvy vacation bible ful season at the daily vacation Bible nad their birth. Frederick L. Fay, director of re- ligious education at the South church, ind W. L. Williams, the latter who with his wife, were among the most active workers of Mr. Wilkins' schoo!, which just graduated about 209 pupils, have organized a club among the boys of Troop 2, Boy Scouts and are planning to start another one for outside boys. Mrs. Hewitt and Mrs. G. A. Porter, who also were among the daily va- cation Bible school teachers, have continued their interest by planning to start several clubs at St. Mark's Episcopal church. A history of this movement on file at the Chamber of Commerce rooms, as follows: History of Movement. The Achievement club work had its beginning in New Britain when Super- intendent Stanley Holmes, of the pub- lic school system, after seeing the demonstrations at the manufacturers’ exposition, at Hartford, in January, invited the Junior Achievement bu- reau to explain the work to a com- mittee of persons interested in wel- fare work in New Britain. Leon A. Sprague, president of the Rotary <lub, who was present at the meet- ing called by Mr. Holmes, extended an invitation to have the work ex- plained at a meeting of the Rotary ‘lub at the Shuttle Meadow club- house. This was done. Delegations from a number of Connecticut Rotary clubs were present at this meeting. Miss FEsther Miller of 28 Trinity street has the honor of organizing and leading the first Achievement club in New Britain. This was a club of girls in sewing which Miss Miller has now turned over to another leader. Miss Miller also organized a club of boy to take up the rubber project. The next clubs were organized about June 20 by Miss Gertrude Jahn and Miss Mabel Wallen, teachers in the Stanl school The organization of the clubs by Miss Jahn and Miss Wallen were the direct result of parent-teacher meeing at which the Achievement club work was explained. \rrangements for this meeting was made by Louis P. Slade, the High school principal, who was very deep- Iy interested in this work. Through Rev. N. G. Towart of Ben- nington, Vermont, an organizer and promoter of the daily vacation Bible Stone, president of Colt's| schools Rev. F. N. Wilkens, director of the Bible school in New Britain learned of the Junior Achievement work., Mr. Wilkens was also present at some of the meetings called by Mr. Holmes. He has taken up the lub work seriously and is reorganiz ing his whole Bible school of nearly 100 students into Junior Achievement clubs. Four or five clubs have already een organized in this Bible school ind the organization of other will ‘ollow shortly. Rev. Mr. Wilkens in- ‘ends to organize Achievement clubs n his church as soon as the Bi school is over and other minister wnd church workers in New Britain vill undoubtedly do the same. The Bible school is a joint affair operate:d by all the Protestant churches in New Britain. Miss Millers good work aroused the nterest of Mr. Jackson, chairman of he public amusement commission. At Mr. Jackson's request the Achieve- ment club work was explained to his welve playground directors. Mr. tackson further employed Miss Miller ‘o organize and lead Achievement lubs in connection with the pl sround work. Miss Miller has or nized twelve these clubs and i <etting the work well under way. In wddition, Mr. Jackson plans to have Miss May Begley, who has been eaching sewing to playground groups, Tganize these groups into Achieve- ment clubs at as early a date as possi- Jle. Mr. Jackon sees in the Achieve nent clubs means of arousing rigger and more substantial interest n the part of the citizens of New 3ritain in the playground work. He feels that the influence of the play- zround can be extended over the en- ire year instead of over a few weeks f the summer. At a meeting of his slavground directors Mr. Jackson stated that he had investigated ull vlans that had come to his attention for increasing the efficiency of plav zrounds and was satisfied that ‘he Junior Achievement club plafd w the most desirable from every poiat of view. He therefore purposes to make the Junior Achievement club work an integral essential part of the playground work in New Britain. Rev. Mr. Wilkens is likewise plan 1ing to make the Achievement clubs + permanent feature of the Bible school work, and also of his church work. At a meeting called by Superin- tendent Holmes the Achievement club work was explained to a number of the leading teachers of New Britain Grades and High school. A number of teachers are planning to organize Achievement clubs in connection with their school work when the schools open in September. Mr. Holmes feels that the Junior Achievement clubs have great possibilities in pre-voca- tional education James O'Brien, director of Ameri- canization, is also very deeply inter- ested in the Achievement club work and is planning to organize a num- ber in connection with his American- ization program. Mr. O'Brien states that some of the most intelligent and leading Italians of city feel that the one way in which to reach the adult Italian aliens is through a construc- tive program for their children. He feels that through Junior Achieve- ment clubs this constructive program can be put into operation.
