Clara Beranger has turned out an exceptionally smooth-running con- tinuity, and under the master direc- tion of de Mille, “Icebound” comes to use one of the most humanly ap- pealing and entertaining romantic dramas of this, or any season.

It was at first suggested that the land surrounding the old Esterbrook pen factory near the main line of York, New Haven and Hartford railroad in the eastern sec- tion be utilized.

Willow Brook park was also mentioned, but it, too, was laid aside, due to the great amount of grading necessary and the number of trees that would have to be removed, Considerable time was spent in discussing techncalities in connection withthe landing and taking off of aergplanes. Mr. Dixon said that if New Britain is to have a commer- cial flying field, it must have a good one, else planes will go through to | Hartford, instead of stopping in this city.
