Berlin News SAVAGE HILL LIVEY UPTO APPELLATION Residents Present at East Berlin Meeting Argue for Lights FINALLY LOSE OUT ON VOTE School Board Reserves Decision—Man | Found Not The Missing O'Neill — Legion Making Further Plans Yor Big Time—Septic Tanks Finished, Loud talking, heated arguments and futile discussion combined to make the special meeting of the East Ber- lin fire district at Athletic hall last night one of the most interesting ses. sions held in Berlin for some time. The report of the' committee which was elected last yetr was read. This report favored extension of light lines to Savage Hill and around this item the entire battle of the evening was waged, The min¢tity report subimt- ted by Arthur Binson, a member of the committee, argued against a line I:eing extended t¢ Savage Hill, the ar- gument being that additional expense to the amount 5f nearly $300 would be incurred as a result. The Savage Hill' delegation was present, 25 strong and they bitterly fought in an effort to have the line extended so that it would take in their territery. The principal speak- ers on this side of the fence were Theodore Savage, Willis 1. Savage, Selectman Raymond F. Dyer and W. P. Shepherd. An amendment was finally offered to the meeting, whereby the extension would go only as far as Bower's cor- ner. Tals amendment was submitted by Oscir Benson. The presentation of the amendment was the signal for ad- dittonzl fireworks and the Savage Hill erowd immediately let out war- whoods and set to for the balance of the evening It was difficult to ascertain who was talking, as all were attempting to get a chance fo say soemthing at the same time, with the result that the hal' was in an uproar. The chairman 1oudly called for order and it was fintlly restored. here was a great deal of mud- slinging, it may be said. The Savage Hl residents were of the opinion that they were heing done out of some- tiing rightfully theirs and the East Berlin residents in favor of the imendment were of the opinion that "heir neighbors were just trying to get the lights for their own selfish ends. * Those against the ‘amendment did not think they were being treated right and did not hesitate to say so. Remarks about the management of district affairs by ‘“one family” and other phrases of a like nature were floating around during the entire dis- cussion. They were accused by voters for tha amendment of wanting the line put in just so their premises would be lighted. As there would be only two lights on the line those pres- ent had no trouble in guessing at whom the remarks were pointed. More argument and a possible riot were stopped when the amendment was put to a vote, Tt was passed, 29 to 25, and cut Savage Hill out of the affair entirely. However, it was un- derstood that resilents of the section of the district will not have to pay taxes to the district. The assessable propeny in the dis- trict is valued at 8522476 and a tax of 1% mills was voted. 1If the line had been extended to Savage Hill a tax of three mills weuld have been the result. It wae stated that the district would hate had to stand t¥e expense of ex- tending the lire, as the company will fot provide for these extensions. It Englander priced at $15.00, § ... $225 was deemed unwise to attempt the work this year., However, Savage Hill residents will not lose hope, as there is still a possibility that the ex- tension will be made in time to come. Paul Seigrest was appointed col- | tActor of taxes for the district for the coming year, Members of the committee which submitted the reports were Robert O. Clark, Raymond F. Dyer and Arthur Benson. Iollowing the meeting those pres- | ent remained for some time talking | over affairs and telling what should have been done, the usual course of events following meetings in Berlin. However, in the case of town meet- {ings the talking is done before the | meeting and not after. Committee Reserves Decision, The meeting of the Berlin school |board last night was of short dura- tion. Bids for the construction of the new school in the Blue Hills dis- trict were opened, but decision on awarding the contract was reserved. Man Not O'Neill. Prosccutor Charles I, Lewis of the | Berlin police departmment was notified [last night by residents of the Blue Hills district that there was a man wandering around down there whom !olmv supposed was the missing night- '\\alchman at the Stanley Chemical James O'Neill. Constable Frank Bm\\n Prosecutor Lewis and Richard Preshken, brother-in-law of O'Neill, immediately headed for the place, but found that the man was a resi- dent of Meriden, who was walking for his health. He was taken back to Meriden. Septic Tanks ished. Work on the installation of the sep- tic tanks at the Worthington school has been finished it was reported to- day. It was stated by Pasquale Gian- notta, of the Giannotta Construction Co., that there is still some work to be done on the interior of that build- ing. Registrars to. Meet. The board of registrars will meet Friday of this week from 12 o'clock noon, until 9 o'clock at night in order to receive the names of those desiring to change party affiliations and to correct the lists, State Commander Coming. It is expected that State Com- mander 1. Percy Armstrong of the American Tegion will be the guest of honor at the old home day observance planned by Bolton-Kasica post for Augus Commander Armstrong will be invited to attend. The committee plans to have the tank, freight car and engine used by the “Forty and Eight” in New RBritain last year and some talk of an initia- tion of members into that order has been heard. There is no doubt that the day will be a big one for Berlin and the T.e- glon will work hard to put the aftair “over.” A meeting will be held | Thursday evening at T. A. B. hall to | formulate further plans. May Form Athletic Club. | The T. A.

The All-Kensingtons were formed for the purpose of taking part in all sports. but the interest of this organization is only in baseball. The new club would take part in basketball, football and baseball and there would be a chance for some keen rivalry between this club and or- ganization from other towns. Vacation Notes, Mrs. C. G.
