Tirst Selectman George B. Carter has announced Thursday, February 3, as the date of the special town meectings to discuss the Sunday movie question and to vote on whether the movies will be allowed to be shown here. The first selectman denled reports that a bitter battle would take place over the question and stated that s belief was that it would be more in the order of a social affair than a political fight. He declined to state his own views on the matter and said that the calling of the town meecting was required by law upon the presentation of the permit. As Mr. Carter supported the action at the recent town meeting it is thought that he is in favor. At that time he was asked why he.had issued per- mits and he replied that he had taken surrounding towns as an ex- emple and had issued the permits on those grounds. Interest continued to run high over the question and will probably bring forth large delegations. The supporters of the move are confident of the bill's passage while the op. position states that the struggle will be a bitter one and that they will fight to the last ditch in an effort to keep Sunday movies out. The movies were held last autumn and played to crowded houses dur- ing their brief existence. They were, at that time, put on by a Hartford manager, who will no doubt con- tinue operations if the bill again passes the voters on next Thursday evening. Prepare For Game The Kensirigton Boys' club Senior basketball team is working out campaign whereby it will put up a . hard battle against the South Con- gregational church on Thursday evening at the New Britain Boys’ club gymnasium. The New Britain squad 1s second from the top and has a long list of victories to fits credit, possessing a pair of sharp shooting forwards, Bell and Morey. These two stars are the ones which Kensington will watch closely in an effort to keep them under cover, A new guard program has been prac- BOARD OF RELIEF NOTICE The Board of Relief of the Town of Berlin, will meet at the Assessors’ Office, Town Hall, February 1, 5, 8, 10, r2, 15, 17, 19, 21, 1927, from 2 to 5 o'clock p. m. All persons claiming to be aggrieved from the doings of the assessors must appear and file their complaints at any of these meetings. All appeals must bs made within twenty days from February 2nd. W.

In the meantime the Kensington- | fans are perfecting their own offense | which has steadily improved lately. Malone and Chotkowski have proved ! {good running mater, Malone develop- | ing rapidly and Chotkowskl, with | added guard support, slipping them in with encouraging regularity. While the locals have a long row to hoe to get up to their desired standing, the boys have rolled up their sleeves and gone at the dis- couraging task with a fervor that has considerably strengthened their | standing in the opinion of the other | teams. With the South church | team's scare last Saturday evening | when the Center church ran up a| large score on them,it is thought {that they are enjoying thelr mid- season slump and conditions are ripe | for a reversal of form. The local team plans to take any advantage | offered by the New Britainites and will condense their attack on any weak point shown by the Hardware City five. Athletic Club Elects The Kensington Athictic Club, at the meeting held last evening, |elected their officers for the com |ing year. The results of the bal- loting were as follows: President, John McKeon, Jr.; vice-president, J. C.

Buckley, Frank Fogliati, Frank Pierpoint, Harry McKeon and E. J. Moore. The manager of the baseball team ifor the coming scason has not yet |been announced.

The owners of stores where machines are in oper- atlon were given untll Saturday to have thelr use discontinued and the mechanisms removed, with notice that prosecution would follow if the notification were disregarded. | About a year ago there were nu- | merous mint vending machines In local stores, although they have been outlawed by state statute and banned | from almost every other locality in | Connecticut. Grand Juror S. 8. Gwil- lim, acting on complaints regarding these slot machines, ordered them removed at that time, and although the store proprietors in several In-| stances were slow in complying with | his order all of the offending ma- | chines were finaily driven out. Recently machines differing only | slightly from those forbidden have been installed in several business places, the change being that they gum instead of mints. The authorities have shown in many cities that this is a mere' blind and that machines are played for the slugs which are won by the player on certain throws. If a per- fSon is lucky enough to obtain a large number of these, he can turn | them in for trade, and the gambling clement has been shown to enter in that men continue to ply the ma- hine with nickels until they do make a lucky play. When the attention of the select- ymen was called to the presence of these slot machines in the town, they | |immediately complained to Grand Juror Conlon, who today sent out the following letter to each of the | evening. ; The meeting of the Knights of Pythias held last evening at Com- munity Nall was largely attended guests being present from nearby towns. The degree several team |from the Middletown lodge worked | | the third degree on a team of four candidates.

The prayer meeting of the Meth- odist church will be held in the church social rooms at 7:30 o'clock this evening. The Boys' club will meet Friday evening from seven to nine o’'clock under the supervision of Physical Director William Ogle. The boys who will enter the track mecet at Vew Britain Saturday afternoon will received their final instructions. It is expected that quite a large team will enter the fleld at New Britain Saturday. ‘The Ladles’ society of St. Ga- briel's Episcopal church met yes- trday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Archer Walsh and held their an- nual election of officers. Those elected for the ensulng year are as follows: President, Mrs. Archer Walsh; vice-president, Mrs., Fred Rich; secretary, Miss Esther Lund; treasurer, Mrs. Ralph Gamble. The next meeting of the society will be held next Tuesday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Ralph Gamble. There will be a choir rehearsal of the Episcopal church choir in the church social rooms Friday eve- ning at 7 o'clock just before the whist party which will be held at 8 o'clock. The Pythian Sisters will hold an- other party and whist at Commun- ity hall Saturday evening of this week. Following the whist, re- freshments will be 8served after which dancing will be enjoyed. GUILTY OF ROBBERY. Worcester, Mass,, Jan. 26 (A— James Larala, 19, was found guilty {by & jury in the superior court late yesterday on a charge of robbery of James Fallon, a motorman on the Worcester Consolidated Street Rail- way company, on the night of Jan- uary 18, 1925, and of ' robbery of Marshall Lewis the same night.

A tentative bill authorizing the is- sue of bonds not in excess of $200,- 000 bearing interest at the rate of five per cent and payable within a term of 20 years, was submitted by Corporation Counsel Willlam N. De- Rosier. The first retirement would be made five years from the date of issue and a sufficlent amount re- tired each succeeding year so that the entire amount would be absorbed within the 20-year period. ing a roll call to ascertain the de- sire of each councilman, the cor- poration counsel was authorized to refer the tentative draft to Repre- sentative Epaphroditus Peck for presentation before the legislature. It was poilnted out that it will probably be next year before any- thing definite can bs done with the project. It will be first necessary to establish a speclal sewer district, which may also be known as a tax- ing district for the construction of ments. After the district lines have been lald out, it will then be neces. sary to secure the sanction of voters within the district to the sewer in- stallation. City Treasurer who is also a mamber of the finance was present and in- formed the counci] that the city can still issue bonds to the extent cf $440,000, and keep within the five per cent limit. This {s based on a grand list of the city of $56,000,000. Mr. Beach again recommended to the city council that some definite action be taken toward the es- tablishment of a sinking fund to take care of the $600,000 city im- provement bonds which mature in 1852 and which were a part of the 181,350,000 hond fissue floated in 1922. The §750,000 balance of the bond Issue are being retired at the rate of $25,000 each year, but as | Mr. Beach pointed out, unless some action was taken to care for the improvement bonds, the coming gen- eration would find themselves faced with a difficult task in 1952. Mr. Beach stated that he had for the past few years called this matter to the attentfon of the council, but each year action was deferred until the next budget was approved. Councilman Charles R. Anderson suggested that the finance board prepare a table showing just what would be required financially to es- tablish a sinking fund whereby the jentire amount might be taken care of on the due date and also another table showing the yearly appropria- tions necessary to retire half the amount by the date of expiration. This Mr. Beach agreed to do, but it is probable that nothing definite will be done in the matter this year.
