Berlin News FOUR ARE PINNED UNDER AUTOMOBILE None Injured When Car Taros Over in East Berlin STORM CAUSES ACCIDENT Class For Non-English Speaking Children — Return From Grangc Conference—Play Day Plans Are Completed—Other Items. Peter Twardus of New Britain and a party of friends had a narrow escape from serious injury yester- day afternoon when a car in which they were riding skidded on the East Berlin flats and slid to the side of the road, where it turned completely over. Twardus was on his way to New Britaln and was proceeding along the Berlin-East Berlin road. , He met a truck on the stretch of ce- ment pavement just before Caesar's hill i{s reached and in attempting to turn out for the van his car skidded on the wet pavement. The car hit the dirt shoulder at the side of the road and' turned over, pinning the men under it. Fortunately James McPherson of Past Berlin happened to be driving along directly in back of the Tware dus machine. Mr. McPherson aided in extricating the men from the wreckage and it was found that none of them had been so much as scratched, although the car was badly damaged. The car was taken to Abel's gar- age on the turnpike, where it was put up for repairs. The fenders were smashed and the . top was wrecked. The four New Britain men were conveyed 'to that city In Mr. McPherson's car, uninjured, al- though badly shaken up.

Ready for Opening. The school buildings throughout the town are now ready for the opening of the fall term' after a summer-of thorough repairs and: many improvements The repairs committee of. the school board, con- sisting of John McKeon, Jr, Ed- ward McCormack and Ernest W. Mildrum, has made a thorough study of conditions in the schools and has taken steps to see that many needed improvements were made, : One of the big improvements was the installation of more electric lights in several of the schools. The committee this year has accom- plished a great deal and some of the townspeople who have been fol- lowing closely the work done, say that no committee of the board has ever worked so faithfully or accom- plished so much.

The | storm played pranks with the barns and silos of the Chippens Hill sec- tion, lifting one silo at the farm of | Otis Roberts on Perkins nll'P.'cl sev- | eral feet in the air so that it cleared some farm machinery nearby and then dashed it to pieces 50 feet away. | One other silo at this farm was also uprooted and .reduced to kindling wood by the terrific rain and wind | cone, which twirled through the gection, Mr, Roberts also Auflfl‘ed‘ the loss of a barn on Hill street, {which was blown over. Edwin Gaylord’'s barn on Hill street paid tribute to the tornado, which then roared over the farm of Leigh D. and Dwight Minor on Hill street, destroying two silos. Silos seemed the favorite objective of the |storm as Adolph Schultz lost one on Hill street. His silo disappeared.and at this time may possibly be wan- dering over'the terrain. Cattle In the ficlds suffered greatly in the storm but no livestock losses | have been reported. | A telephone pole near the home | | of Manager Louis A.

Fire Destroys House Forced to stand idle while flames | ate up the home of Anthony Boise- | wicz on Stafford avenue shortly after 10 o'clock last night, the local fire department saved several nearby houses and barns, With the nearest hydrant more than a mile away, the firemen had no recourse except a |smalt stream, which was quickly dried by the pumpers and a quick |movement to another brook was necessary. Two lines of hose, 1,500 | feet from the brook to the fire were |laid, after the flames had gained and |such headway that saving the struc- |ture was out of the question. All of trip they were the guests of relatives (the apparatus responded except the of Mr. Radcliffe.

The owner of the |place, Mr. Boisewicz said last night that he had retired about 9 o'clock‘ |and that no fires were goingjpin the | |stoves. He was awakened abbut an | hour later by the crackling of flames | |and the odor of smoke and discov- |ered that the whole root was ablaze, |indicating that the fire had started in one of the upper rooms of the | house. | In order to secure water, the fire- men were forced to build a small | |dam in the brook. Two years ago | Fire Chief John H. Hayes requested | ing damages them greatly as they serviced by trolley compani from this ety to Plainville, the petition is granted a virgin terri- tory will be opened up for transporta~ tion. The route goes over a part of the thoroughfare known as the Col. lege Highway from Farmington to Simsbury, McDonnell Brothers franchise between this city and Hartford. Because of the routing out of this city over streets not taken care of by traction companies, little opposition to the petitions is antici- pated, according to sentiment ex- pressed yesterday about the city. Building Owners Appeal Fred Herold, Victor Milward and assoclates, owners of the old savings bank building, have taken an appeal ‘to the superior court from the Main street bullding line decision of the city council. The owners protest that the build. desire a are unable to carry outplans for the development of their real estate. Vacca to Pave Main Street Practically underbidding his near- est competitor by 50 per cent, Cosmo Vacca of this city secured the con- tract for the paving of Main street, at the meeting of the city council | last night. Vacea bid $1.95 a square yard for the work while his nearest competitor was Sperry Mastrobattis- | to with a price of $3.60. The street work will be started at | once in order that trafic problems, which resulted from the narrow pas- | sageway, which the present high-| whys affords, may be done away | with. Street lines have been estab- lished by the city council along the | lines of the present property so that nothing remains but the actual physical change in the street's lay- | out. Slips on Banana Claiming that she slipped on a banana peel on North Main street | several weeks ago and thereby broke her leg, Miss Mary Bachman of North street asked the city for damages at the council meeting. The matter was referred to the claims committee for investigation. Miss Bachman suffered a bad fall which has confined her to her home for some time. Will Ask State Aid Decision was reached by the council to ask the state to make its share of the repairs on Farm- ington avenue, which has been in bad condition for scme time, As this is & state aid road, a portion of the expense is assessable to the commonwealth. The thoroughfare is honeycombed with holes and ruts that make traveling anything but pleasant. Vacca Presents Claim. Through his attorney, Joseph P. O'Connell, Contractor Cosmo Vacca has presented a claim to the city for $4,000 for work done on the new high school, for which he has not been reimbursed. Attorney O'Connell asked that that matter be discussed with him by the claims committee so that the hill might reach adjustment, and it was voted | to have the claims committee han-| dle the matter. Sewer Hearing Set. | Hearing on the laying of a sewer | on Locust street, directly off Pratt | street will take place at the meet- ing on September 16. A petition for this improvement came to the counci! last night. “Music Hath Charms.” The old saying that “musie hath | charms to soothe the savage breast” nearly went by the board‘ last night at the council session as a tiff began between Executive Manager Earl J. Arnold and Coun- cilman Frank R. Graves, when an appropriation of $212 for two bands | for the defense day celebration on September 12 was asked. Mr. Graves moved that §106, the price of one band, be appropriated and therein trouble started. Mr. Arnold vigorously protested against the restriction of the committee to one band and declared that he would mail out notices recalling all of the invitations to organizations | to parade on that day. He thought | one band insufficient and an- nounced that one of the cpuncil members, Frank 8. Merrill, was chairman of the plans for the ob- servance. the property owners of the Stafford | section to build a small reservoir in | |anticipation of any fire emergency. | The matter was allowed. to drag 1long and last night's fire was one | of the fruits of the delay. Autos Bother Firemen | Fire fighters at the blaze last night were interfered with greatly | by the crowding in of motorists to | the scene of the fire. |cars ran over the hose with |Rreatest nonchalance and blocked |the efforts of the firemen by parking mhehines in space, needed by the apparatus of the department. Jditney Hearings Scheduled i Hearings on the applications of | Thomas O'Bricn, Antonia Corone | | and McDonnell brothers of this city | for the establishment of jitney routes will be heard by the public utilities | | commission on Friday morning at [ 10:30 o'clock at the state capitol in | Hartford. | Mr. O'Brien and Mn Corone have | applied for a route which will lead | from this city to Farmington to Avon | STATE TORET AT 30 WARD OUTIG Nominges Chosen Sept. 10 fo Attend Dinner on Sept, 13 Nearly 1,000 men and wwomen are expected to attend the annual outing of the Third Ward Republican club September 13 at Lake Compounce, which will be the first meeting in the state at which the republican ticket named at the state convene tion on September 10 will be rati- fied. It wae said today that the ens tire state ticket would be present. Senator Reed of Pennsylvania, | who had accepted an {invitation to speak at the outing, may be unable to attend. While he was in Europe recently his secretary made arrange- ments for him to speak in his home state on the same day as the outing of the New Britain club, it is ex« plained. Upon returning from abroad, he learned of the confusion in dates and wired the Third Ward club that he could not come. Hope of securing him has not been aban- doned in spite of his telegram. If he cannot attend, a speaker of equal prominence will be signed up. The day will be spent in athletics, eating and listening to speeches. The athletic program will start at 11 a. m, in order that it can be disposed of before dinner is served. Automo=- biles to convey those who have tick~ ets will leave Franklin Square at 12 o'clock. A meeting of the club was held last night at which reports on the outing were made. Ralph Britton will be song leader. Howard Tim- brell, chairman of the music com« wittee, has engaged two orchestras, one for each floor of the Casino. Al« fred LeWitt has prepared a long proe gram of athletic events and Dr. J, E. Conger says he will have prizes on a par with those distributed Jast year, Two state policemen will be ses cured to assist in directing the parke ing of automobiles, which will be in charge of Howard Bruemmer. Eu« gene J. Porter, chairman of the din- ner committee, reported that a menu ti tickle the palate of a monarch will be served. The dinner will be built around roast sheep. Tickets for the event are being distributed today under the direction of Louie 8. Jones. Ernest N. Hum- phrey is in charge of transportation and wants to hear from automobile owners who will help to take the | crowd to the lake. Isaac Black, president of the club, will preside at the dinner. Officers of the women's state Coolidge club are expected to attend in a body. It is said that about 300 women will be present, The outing is attracting the at- pention of many prominent state politiclans, who will gather around the festive board. Ex-Mayor Orfon F.
