It was at first - gencrally sup- posed the purpose of this bill was to allow New Dritain to acquire lands along “New Haven" rallroad main line, the tract to be the-site of a new railroad station at some dis- tant date, New Britaln is now served from the main line by a “dinkey train.” No sooner had the bill been read than someone scented the trall of a real estate movement. It became known that two prom- inent New Britain realtors are in possession of tracts in this locality which in its present undeveloped state dogs not enhance the value of their holdings, If the tract becomes a part of the city of New Britain and a station is erected, with pos- sibly a manufacturing establish- ment taking advantage of a chance for a railroad siding on the main ling, development is certain, When the representatives of the two towns began a study of a “rider" providing that, in the event of the annexation, children of Newington would be admitted to the New Brit- ain high school without tuition fees, loud protestation was made. The protests came not only from the city that was to lose the tuition fees under this arrangement, but also from representative citizens. of New- ington who, anxious to sce the school system of that town devel- oped, decricd any movement that would tend to delay the erection of a senior high school In their town. The school tuition “rider” then, with both towns opposed, scems likely to perish, and if it does, it is hardly possible that the bill will survive, tesidents of the strip of land af- fected are interested in the move- ment and hope it goes through. Their children now attend Newing- ton schools and must cross the dan- gcrous grade crossing several times daily, With their lives in danger, it is reasonable to suppose their par- ents would align themselves with proponents of the annexation fdea. Senator Edward F. Hall has spoken of a ‘compromise measure that sounds like good business. Any city or town can expect that in its territory lies the source from which taxes may be derived to pay off the town debts and if Newington was to release a part of its tax-paying ter- ritory the burden of debt would rest more heavily upon other sections of the town. Senator Hall suggests that the proportion of the entire town's value represented in this strip be found, and that the city of New Britain assume a like proportion of the Newington town debt, The likelihood thaf admitting Vewington pupils to New Britain high school with no tuition and with ro chance of restricting the num- ber than will come, causes Senator Hall to express fears as to the high school situation. It is certain that a new high school must be provid- ed before many yea Acceptance of this “rider” would hasten the day on which New Britain would launch an expensive building, program. and the senator is anxious to delay the expenditure as long as is consistent with the educational system of the city. though It has.not yet been ad- vanced, there is another argument that might well be used for annexa- tion, Between New Britain and Newington town line and the “New Haven"” road trackg there is a long low stretch of land. This has been used for ye s a dumping ground, despite ordinances and statutes to the contrary. New DBritain, by dili- gent watching, has succeeded in keeping the rubbish from accu- mulating on the New Britain side, but is powerless to stop this prac- tice just over the line, while the costs of maintaining & watch would he too great for the town of New- ington.

The ex- penses were defrayed by a collection taken up at each event and so ready was the responsg that the first year showed a balance. The second year showed a deficit of only §21, although events costing into a thousand dollars aplece had taken place, This year, the committee de- cided that the courtesy of the Meth- odist ehurch had been imposed on long enough and the Community theater was engaged and admission was charged. KEven then the re. Bponse was heavy. Community Events in their three years of operation in Bristol have presented the New York Little Sym- phony and other musical organiza- tions of merit as well ag such noted lecturers as Rabbl Wise and Rev, Dr. 8. Parks Cadman. Because of the opportunities of- fered a whole family to attend, the committee i considering the return next year to the collection system to pay the expenses instcad of the fixed charge of admlssion. In this way, the father of a large family with his children is as welcome with his contribution of a quarter or a half dollar as the man who can and does put in a ten dollar bill The Community Events this year presented a splendid aggregation of talent for the city's entertainment, he five concerts included “The arber of Seville” by the Manhat- tan Opera Co.; the Fritz Bruch En- semble; Katherine Tift Jones and Georgia Price; Della Baker, vocals ist, and the Russian Balalaika or- chestra, and Suzanne Keener, who appeared last Monday night. A knock out blow was administer- ed to horse racing in the east when announcement was made that Grand Circuit races will not be held at Charter Oak park this year. Jfans have made an annual pil- grimage to the famous Hartford course to watch the fast steppers perform and to lay a little bet on the way the flylng equines would finish. It has been the Mecca of enthusiasts for years, offering pro- grams far more attractive than those presented on smaller tracks at coun- try fairs where local horses stirred up the dust. Charter Oak is said to be the old- est track in the sport. There griz- zled veterans held the reins when they were just breaking into the game, Nearly all the famous driv- ers in history have directed their fastest steeds around the oval and have won fame and fortune there- by. The “Charter Oak Stake an annual fixture, was a magnet which drew thousands to the rails and grandstand. With Charter Oak, Reidville falls also into oblivion. This practically removes mnational harness events from the east and deals a blow to racing in this part of the country from which it may not recover., In- dianapolis and Milwaukee will take their places on the Grand Cleeuit. An effort will be made to regain its lost glory for Charter Oak but it is doubtful if its backers can pre- vail upon the directors of the Grand Circuit to invade the east again. North Carolina steps into the limelight through the presentation of a bill in the house of representa- tives which weuld infpose a penalty on males who try to flirt with col- lege girls or teachers. Semebody is always trying to take the joy out of life. One of the greatest modern out- door pastimes indulged in by the youth of the nation is flirting with pretty girls who saunter by.
