Herbert Van der Den of Malden, ‘Massachusetts, had a narrow escape from death this morning at about 7:48 o'clock, when a car he was d:lv!nx crashed through a fence and turned over in a lot, just north of the' American = Brick Co. plant in Werlin. . Van ‘der Den was only -lu'm!y injured:and he went to the Hartford. hospital, where he re- celved treatment. How: the: accident happened is a mystery, but it'is belleved that the man dozed at the wheel. He was driving north on the turnpike at the time of the accident and was near- ing. the Newington town line. The car suddenly left the road, tore down sgveral white post Blnng the way, yunsrd down an embankment and turned turtle. “By the time other motorists had afrived to assist - Van der Den, he was climbing out of one of the win- dows of the car.

The road has been made narrow at that point, due to the fact that workmen are engaged in removing the trolley car tracks from the thor- oughfare. No one was injured. Officer George Kanupka of the |Berlin police department investi- gated the accident, but found no cause for arrest, stating that it was apparently & case of misjudgment rather than anything else. He did not take the names of those in- volved in the crash. Had Improper Brakes Hector Hamilton of Dix avenue, this city, was arrested by Officer George Kanupka at the intersection of Berlin street and Farmington avenue yesterday afternoon, after the New Britain man's car had col- llded with another machine. The other car, proceeding south on the turnpike, attempted to turn into Farmington avenue and Officer Kanupka gave the driver permission to do so, motioning for Hamilton to stop. The man was unable to do so and his machine struck the other one, damaging a fender. Hamilton was arrested for driving with improper brakes and he will {appear before Judge George G. Gris- wold in the Berlin town court to- morrow night at 7:30 o’clock. Arrested After Accident Jim Grice of 34 Sanford street, Hartford, and Wyle D..Glass of 404 | Bellevue street, Hartford, both |colored, were arrested on the turn- pike last night at about 7:30 o'clock by Officer Frank Brown, after a car owned by Glass and operated by Grice, struck another machine, bear- ing Massachusetts markers. The accident was a slight one, but it proved to be enough to cause the arrest of Grice for driving without a license, and of Glass for falling to ihave his car equipped with Public J. | Service markers when he was carry- ing passengers for hire. Both men will appear in the Ber- lin court tomorrow night at T7:30 o'clock to answer to their charges. Fire District Meeting The long heralded meeting of the Kensington Fire district will be held Friday evening of this week at 8 o’clock, daylight saving time, at Foresters’ hall, according to an an- nouncement by members of the com- mittee. A proposition to extend the water- mains will be acted upon. The com- mittee has advanced the proposition and it is now up to the voters to act. The meeting will also consider to {advisibility of issuing bonds. If it be deemed advisable, the members of the district will vote to authorize the issue and sale of bonds of the dis- trict to an amount sufficient to meet the expenses of the extensions of the watermains. The matter of borrow- ing money and of laying a tax will als6 be considered, as will that of fixing the compensation of the col- lector and of other members of the district committee, Adding Machine Baseball An extremely quick scorer played the star role in the baseball game Saturday afternoon at Benedict- Phillips fleld, Kensington, when the Kensington Congregational church team met the aggregation from the Plainville Y. M. C. A. A total of 43 runs was made, Kensington winning by the narrow margin of 22 to 21. The game was a wide opcn affair, with the batters hitting everything that came their way, from small pebbles to baseballs, ' The ficlders, in a wild fenzy, dashed hither and thither, but they might just as well have been home for all the good they did, as far as preventing the scoring of runs was concerned. So constant was the crack of bat against ball that several Beriin con- stables rushed to the fleld to put a stop to a supposed late Fourth of July celebration. After battling along for e¢'ght in- nings, Plainville tied the score in the ninth, being first at bat. Then Greco, a heavy-slugging Kensing- tonian, drove the fielders back fo the fence with a long hit which | brought in the winning run. The $69.50 Is Sale Price | are priced regularly at $87.50.

Mr. Walker was born on Lincoln street, New Britain, and spent most of his life in that city. On May 23, 1879, he went to work at the “Rule Shop” and remained with that company until now. His early days there were the days of ‘“‘contractors,” and Mr. Walker soon began to accept contracts for wood- working jobs. After 25 years he was made a foreman when the old con- tractor system was abandoned. From then until his retirement he had charge of the planing and handle-making. When the company established a Branch plant at Roxton Pond, Can- ada, Mr. Walker was sent to organ- ize it and start production. He has been responsible for many improve- ments in the company's tools and processes, About five years ago he came to Plainville. Now he will sell his Farmington avenue land and re- tire still further into the “country”, where he will raise chickens and live a quiet life. All-Plainvilles Win Two The All-Plainviles had a most profitable week-end, defeating the strong Pextos in Southington Satur- day and treuncing the Forestville town team here yesterday. Satur- day’'s victory was a shock to the Pextos, for the Southington team is rated the fastest team in this part of the state and is leading the Central Connecticut league. Plainville tore right into Lindstrom in the first inning and made four runs, then played nice ball behind the-beautiful pitching of Chant. Time and again Southington threatened, but Chant applied the screws at each threat and turned back the Pextos without much damage being done. In the sixth, after one man had scored and the bases were full, he struck out a batter and got the last one on a fly. The final score was 6-2, Darrow and Bucherri hit hard Sataline, former Plainville Blue, played a wonderful game at first base and saved the game on several occasions. The game was the first of a three-or-five game seri between the teams, The box score. All-Plainvilles ab r Darrow, 3b .

McCarthy took " Drops Wild One The Plainville Y. M. C. A. lost a wild comedy game to Kensington on the latter team’s hill-and-dale ficld saturday afternoon. The official scorer announced the final tally as 22-21 but long before the last in- ning he was on the verge of insanity and the correctness of his figures is open to suspicion. He is reported as still alive today but not doing any too well. McCormick started in the box for Kensington and was followed by Goodrich and Maguda, but none of them were effective. Holmquist and Sims caught. Bachman, Comerford, about everybody else in the took a turn at pitching for Plainville, and Catcher Ray Schwab | became so used to seeing new pitch- ers that he expected any minute to see the umpire toss over a couple. The flelding was a joke, bad bounds and worse fumbles making anything £ood for extra bases. In the first three innings Ken- sington got away to an §-3 lead, but Plainville fought back and was be- | hind at only 13-11 after five in- nings. During the sixth and seventh the exhausted pla were getting their second wind and did not score. In the first half of the eighth Plainville men batted and six runs scored, but Kensington immediat sent 13 men to the plate and drove in eight runs. Plainville tied things in the ninth, but with nobody out and the bases full Greco sent a long hit to the outfield and the win- ning run came in for Kensington. The score by innings: 021 530 064—21 18 6 152 410 081—22 22 11 Bills Tax Delinquents Final bills to delinquent taxpavers have been mailed by Tax Collector Willis J.

A list of more than 100 persons who have failed to pay has been prepared by Mr., Hem- ingway, and it is expected that the issuing of warrants for their arrest will begin within a week. The first to be prosecuted will be those who have failed to pay taxes on their automobiles. Then the personal tax delinguents will be gelt with. As for personal property on which taxes are not paid, Mr. Hem- ingway says he will proceed forth- | with to advertise the land for sale. Poor Weather—Little Traffic Despite slippery roads over week-end, the smaller volume of traffic resulted in no accidents in- volving automobiles passing through Plainville. First Selectman John J. Kimmel anticipated this and did not send out the two constables for duty at the center and Blos- sem's corner. In the future they be on duty only when fair weather brings with it the accom- v heavy volume of traffic, Blues Again Rained Out The Plainville Blues were forced for the second time to postpone their engagement Poquonock { when the up-state management called up at 1 o'clock vesterday aft- very, ight rain was still falling | in Poquonock. The Blues expect to get into action this week-end, though no definite game has been booked. With the defection of Sataline to the All-Plainvilles, the Blues are faced with the necessity of acquiring another first baseman.
