Berlin News SIDEWALKS ARE IN A POOR CONDITION Kensington Residents Complain to Fire District Board LIUOR CASES UP FRIDAY Kalkowski and Spenneski Both Enter Plea of Not Guilty Before Judge Griswold—Play Reading Tuesday— P’atterson Death—-RBriefs. Residents of Kensington daily complaining to the fire district board of that section in regard to the de- plorable condition of the sidewalks. The complains in particular are about the sidewalk on the south side of Main street from the Berlin Savings Lank to the railroad bridge This includes the stretch of land in front of the Kensington postoffice. ‘Phe Kensington fire district has not done anything in the matter, but it is possible that unless the property owners M the town see fit to make improvements on the sidewalks that the committee will order cement or tar sidewalks installed. The walking in the center of Kens- ington has been made worse within the past few days due to the thaw and the rain. For the past several vears the sidewalks in this section hiave been poor and no attempt has been made to improve them. The walks were at one time of a cinder mixture, but as they are at present it is hdrd to distinguish it from the road. It is on the level with the road and although drains have been in- stalled along the way there is no gut- ter for the water to flow in, and on a rainy day the water spreads all over the sidewalk and road. The fire district has the right to order sidewalks installed, and as many residents know that the com- mittee was organized for this pur- pose they are desirous of seeing the work done. It is the opinion of many in town that cement walks should be laid from the railroad bridge to the American Paper Goods factory on the south side of Main street. Both Klemens Kalkowski of New Britain and John $benneski of Hart- tord entered a plea of not guilty in the town court Saturday night when they were arraigned before Judge Griswold on a charge of making in- toxicating liquor with intent to sell. The men were arrested Saturday morning, following a raid on Thurs- day night at the residence owned by Max Cohen in the Rdue Hill section of Kensington. Upon the request of Prosecutor C. F. Lewis, who desired to make further investigations, Judge Griswold adjourned court until Iori- day evening, I"ebruary 10, at 7:30 o'clock. Kalkowski and Spenneski were relecased under bonds of $500 apiece. William Leroy Patterson The funeral of William ILeroy Pat- terson, who was found dead at his home en Tower Lane Saturday morn- ing, will be held tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock and burial will be in Maple cemetery. Rev. S. A. [iske will officiate and although final ar- rangements have not been completed, it is expected that the funeral will be held from the chapel of the Berlin Congregational church.
