This side of the Meri- den line the car in front was forced to stop suddenly and the Massachu- setts machine did likewise. However, the driver of a machine in back could not stop suddenly enough and crashed into the other machine, in- flicting no damage. The colored man's machine was| followed up to Berlin’ and Officer Ventres, who was on traffic duty, was approached by the driver from Massachusetts with the request that the colored man be arrested.

All Kensingtons Take Two The All-Kensingtons were in great form for baseball the past week-end, as either the East Berlin team nor the St. Mary’s team of Manchester will agree. They took both games, the one with East Berlin urday afternogn, 10-2, and yesterday, 7-5. The boys played non-stop games in both cases and there was strong opposition at each game, although East Berlin was playing on the de. fensive at every stage. St. Mary's played a good game, but were over- prowgred by a much stronger oppo- sition, The box score of the East Berlin game: All Kensington ab Venturo, 2b .. Fields, ss McCormick, 1f ..

The East Berlin team has a good battery, but the crowd appeared to be disappointed in the efforts of ghe other members of the delegation. The game yesterday was more in- teresting, but not as excitlng had been expected. Features of the game included home runs by Hea- ley, the visiting pitcher, and McCor- mick, Kensington's left flelder. A catch by Thorton, the Manahester left fielder, brought the crowd to its feet, but caused Thorton to dive to the turf in securing the fast ball.

Defense Day, Friday, September 12, will be fittingly observed in Plainville according to plans which haye been made by the local com- mittee In charge of arrangements. As was announced in Saturday's paper a tent will be pitched on the green near the monument where the citizens of the town are asked to sign the roll to signify their in- tentions of helping the government in time of need. The committee this morning announced that all women in Plainville are’ asked to enroll for Red Cross work. The tent will be open both in the aft- ernoon and In the evening and will be in charge of the Brock-Barues post, American Legion. The fundamental principle of De- fense Day, as described by the com- mittee, I8 to call together the citi- zens to remind them of thelir duties as Americans. It is for this reason that everyone should and is re- quested to sign the roll on this day. In the evening there will be spe- clal patriotic exercises in the Com- munity theater. The use of the theater has been granted gratis by the present owners and the exer- clses will commence at § o'clock. The committee is negotiating for two well known and prominent military men to address the gath- ering. The cooperation of all the townspeople is asked in order to make this day a success in Plain- ville. The names of the speakers will be announced at a later date. School children will probably be asked to contribute their share of the program and it is possible that special exercises will be held in the schools on that date. May Scek New System One of the many items that will | probably come up for discussion before the annual town meeting in October will be the abolishment of the present police.court system in Plainville. Several of the town's most prominent residents have ex- pressed dissatisfaction with the present form of justices of the peace and grand jurors and would cutor system in Berlin should be |an incentive to introduce the sys- tem in this town. Plainville at present elects a number of justices each year and three grand jurors. The grand jur- ors act as prosecutors when cases are brought into court and they | possess the right to make ar- rests. Policemen, who make ar- | rests, bring their cases to the grand | juror, who in turn brings the case | before any one of the justices | chooses. Both the justices and | grand jurors are paid on a fee sys- | [tem and do not receive salary. a yearly The pay is received in each o | case where an arrest is made. The grand jurors and justices declde | when the trial should be held and when the date is decided upon an- | nouncement is made to that effect. Although many believe that the form of town government now in | vogue has a direct bearing upon | the court system employed, it has | been learned that this is mot the case and that a court system simi- lar to the one in Berlin may be ob- |tained by petitioning legislature, | Proponents of the system have stated | that they will bring the matter for ‘(hsru.'slm\ before the town meeting |and there ask that the representa- | tive boe authorized to petition to [ next session of the legisiature for |a changs in the court system.

Everyone expressed them- selves as well pleased with the re- sults obtained by the building gom- mittee, Austin Ham, principal of the new high school, greeted the many first near high school pupils, who this morning, attended the first session of the Plainville High school. There is still additional work to be done on the building and when this is completed a public inspection of the building will be held.

In the testimony it was brought out that numerous complaints have been made about the shooting of song birds and pheasants in the Red Stone Hill section and that the game wardens had laid in wait since Fri- day morning to trap the offenders. School Board Meeting All eyes are turned toward the | board of education meeting of Wed- nesday night when it is anticipated that the final answer to the vac- cination controversy that has stirred the city for several months will he {given. Health Officer J. I | Woisard has not moved from his |stand that all school children, teach- |ers and attaches’ must receive th virus. g The board of education has taken |no action on the matter since the June meeting, when it was voted to recommend that the order of the | health officer be carried out. No order of the school board was in- scribed upon the minutes so that the compulsory ruling is yet in the air. g Since the uproar at the health board meetings, the school hoard members have kept rather quiet on tre topic and have expressed no of- | ficial opinions. Arrange Post Season Series Because of the demand by local | fans, the New Departure baschall | management has arranged a series |of three games with the Torrington | nine of the state league, the first of |terday. The Torrington nine has |long been a close rival of the local team and the series has attracted great interest. The three clashes | will be hlde despite the winning of the first two games by either of the | teams, The locals were the winners of the pennant in the state lecague sched- ule. Young Attacks Health Board. That Health Officer Woisard may | hang the body of Bruce Young to the city hall flag and there let the wind play with his remains until his bones are flayed to pieces and crash to the pavement below, is the ulti- matum of Custodian Bruce Young of the Fifth avenue school in a state- ment iesued this morning. Mr. Young berates the local hoard | of health and in one paragraph says that cannibals would not live where some local people must reside. He also prophesies that politics is at the m of the vacclnation order for rcal schools and that the next war will be the result of political machination. ement follows: | | The | “Ata meeting of the health hoard | on September 5, 1 was informed that | the health officer had no power to |act on the matter of cleaning up cesspools which overflow into the | gutter of one of our most popular streets. What I wish to do is to find | out from some source what the dug | ties of the health officer consist of besides tacking on quarantines and | ordering vaccination. | “In a vicinity where 100 or more school children daily pass by a large ceaspool, the odor which arises at times is so unbearable that it would | Kill all of the fish in Highland Lake in Winsted, and there are some | pretty tough fish there | " “More Rotten Than Hog-waller.” | “The health officer at this meet | ing ordered that vaccinatior | which he had previously still stands and that a the or nding achool must be va to prevent smalipox.

When the time | draws near, the papers will tell you where and when you can be made a voter. T beg of you, I plead with you, This thing does not force you to vote but it does give you the | privilege when such questions arise at future elections, to put some men |into office who will discharge such an ignorant, overbearing, authoritys abusing set who are the stool pig- cons and chore boys of a pelitical | combination. 1t Is for the future of | your child’s sake that I ask you to perform this small duty, which is a |large duty if looked upon in a cer- tain way.
