Berlin News BEREIN FREE FROM " CONTAGIOUS 1LLS Health Gonditions in Town Good, ..~ Says Dr. Griswold SPECIAL TOWN MEETING? Work on New Highway is Started in Earnest—Kensington Meets Plain- ville in County “¥” League Game Saturday—Automobile Ditched.” Health conditions in Berlin are ex- cellent at the present time, accord- ing to a statement made today by Dr. Roger M. Griswold, health offi- cer of the town. There is not one case of contagiaus disease in the en- tire district, the last quarantine sign having been removed yesterday. There is very little general sick- ness, according to the health ofticer, who emphasized the fact that even dlds are a rarity, for some reason or ather, Berlin has not been in such a healthy condition for some time, it 1s understood. \ May Get Out of Cellar Jf the Kensington Congregational church indoor baseball team wins tomorrow night’s game with the Center church team of New Britain at Willew Broook park, it will be out of the cellar and the Center church team will take the Kensing- tonians’ ‘place. Kensington has not won a single game this season, while the New Britain ‘team has won just one., The game will be cne in the Inter-Chjurch League series and it is scheduled t@ begin at 6:45 o'clock. Special Town Mecting? Whether or not a special town meeting will be éalled for the pur- pose of taking action on the two parcels of land sought by the Berlin school board is a question just at present. It is understood that there has been some talk of holding such a meeting either this month or in August, but it is also undaistood that the school board has 'not yet pe- titioned the board of -selectmen to call a meeting. S. Chase Coale, chairman of the board, was out of town today and e could not be reached, but anoth- er member of the committee in- formed the Herald that Mr. Coale tas been.undecided’ as to whether the meeting should be ret for this mofith or-next. The selectmen will P Bl 'cAll & meeting just as soon as’ @vequest i sent to thom. "The finance board of the town has approved the purchase of the par- cels of land, with which to carry out the board's expansion program. That matter was disposed of some time ago and now residents are beginning to wonder whether a special meeting will be~called or whethor the mat- tef wHl:hang fire until the next reg- ular town meeting. There seems to be little, doubt but that a special meetfng ‘Wil be called. The school board is seeking to purohase land on Alling street, Ken- sington; opposite Church street. - A school %l‘;l be built upon it, but the type of bliifding has not yet been de- clded.. There is no doubt that the erection of a new school will relieve | congestion in the Kensington dis- trict. The land in the Berlin district adjoins the Bouth school on the Berlin turnpike and it will be used as & playground for the children. Due to the fact that the school is located on the Berlin-Meriden turn- pike, there is great danger from au- tomobiles and the school board has decided that an ample playground will serve to eliminatg the danger by giving the children space in which to play. Residents of Berlin, it is under- stood, look with favor upon this latest move of the school commit- tee, County “Y” Baseball ‘The Benedict-Phillips Recreation fleld in Kensington will be the scene of a hotly contested baseball game on Saturday afternopn at 3 o'clock, when the Plainville Y. M. C. A. team meets the squad from the Kensington Congregational church. Both teams are among the foremost contenders in the County “Y" league and the outcome of the game is being looked” forward to with interest. i Hail Visits Berlin A severe thunder storm visited Berlin early this morning. bringing with it heavy rain and wind, not to mention hail which fell for several utes. far as can be learned. no damage was done in town by light- ning, but farmers were somewhat concerned when they saw the hail begin to fall, fearing that crops would be damaged if it kept up for any length of time. The stone§ | were about the size of peas. Limbs were blown from trees in some sections of the town. but a careful inquiry elicited the informa- tion that no other damage was done. Removing Trolley Tracks Work has started in earnest. as far as the new Berlin-New Britain highway is concerned. and groups of workmen were busy removing trolley tracks from Farmington av- enue, beginning at fhe intersection of that road with the Rerlin turn- pike. The work of removing the tracks is being rushed by the Con- necticut company, since the contrac- tors cannot begin their excavating until the rails are out of the way. It is said that the work will start at the Berlin end of the road and that a 20-foot pavement will be laid. Tt is not known how long the work will occupy. but it will be sev- eral months before it will be opened to traffic.. Meanwhile one-way traf- fic will be in order when excavating starts, The state “Road Closed™ signs have been put in place and Berlin's dreap s about to be in the process of realization. Tire Ditches Automobile A spare tire which dropped off a caused the vehicle to plunge into a ditch in East Berlin last evening. Tortunately, the driver had the ma- chine well under control and the car was not overturned. However. the services of a wrecker were required to pull it out of the ditch, The automobile bore New Jersey markers and, after being towed to the highway, it proceeded on its journey, none the worse for the in- cident, The occupants were shaken up considerably, but suffered no other bad effects. \ Mrs, Wilcox in Georgia Mrs. Frank L.

A deluge of rain ac companied the electrical display. All lights went out and at 8 o'clock the community was without current. | The entire community is invited to attend the annual outing and field day of the East Berlin Community club at Hotchkiss Grove on Satur- day, June 16.

London, July 7 (UP)—Only par- | lilamentary approval was lacking to- | day to enable the Church of Eng- land to substitute the revised ver- sion of the book of common pray- er for the book which has served the church for centuries. Amoug the alterations was the deletion from the marriage service of reference to woman taking her beginning from man, Use of the old .or revised version would be optional. The church as- sembly, created in 1920 and com- posed of the house of bishops, the I house of clergy and the house of laity adopted, the revised versiomr yesterday by a vote of 517 to 133, Since the Church of Englang is a state church at the head of which is the sovereign, the proposed re- visions must obtain its final approval rom the parliament. In making the final pl for ap- {proval of the revised version, the bishop of Canterbury asked for a “clear and decisive vote in favor of it Before the vote was taken the | usual solemn conclave, consisting of bishops and representatives of the Iclergy and laity, became the scene of excited cries of dissent and shouts of “Time” in a last-minute attempt to stave off a vote. It had been expected in many quarters that acceptance of the re- vised version might result in a seri- ous split in the church but the one- sidedness of the victory was believed today to have minimized the pos- ility of a serious break.
