Declaring there is a need for a re- form in the system of government in Berlin and that it he were elect- «d he would do everything in his power to save the town money, Joha Carbo, one of the foremost Italians in Kensington, announced his intention of seeking the republi- can nomination for first selectman today. One of the principal problems that @ first selectman has to contend with is road construction and repair, in the opinion of Mr. Carbo, and in that particular he has had exper- ience of 15 years. He believes there has been neglect in the care of roads in both Berlin and Kensington despite the fact that huge sums of money are appropriated annually for this use. He was the first Italian to become a citizen in the town of Berlin and he was also the first Italian to be- come a republican. Forty-six years ago Mr. Carbo came to Kensington from his native home in Italy, and 37 years ago he became a citizen, Since that time he had been an ai dent worker iIn the ranks of his party. He was a grand juror for two years and a constable for 10 years, but of late he has not been an office holder. Because of his experience in town Notice was given today that all pupils who wish to enter the Senior High school must receive certificates from the town school committee, They must agree to pay the tuition after three years. They will recelve the certificates from Principal Arthur B. Conrad at the Kensington Grammar school Thursday after- noon of this week, No children were allowed to enter the town schools today without proof of vaccination. Parents with children who are starting in school are re- quested to see the teacher and fur- nish her with information to whether the child has been vaccinat- ed. Record Number of Applications ‘The town's record for applications to be made voters was broken dur- ing this session of the registrars, ac- cording to John Moore, deputy registrar of voters who was acting in place of George Corr. Exactly 451 signified their intentions of be- coming voters, and approximately half of them were women. Annual Meeting The Woman's Miasionary soclety of the Kensington Congregational church will hold its annual meeting at the home of Mrs. Charles B. Grimshaw Friday afternoon at 3 o'clock. Mrs. Martin Welles of Hart- ford will be present and will speak. All the women of the church have been invited to attend. Caucus Monday Night Chairman H. C. Deming of the republican town committee has call- ed the caucus of the party for Mon- day night, S8eptember 10, at 8 o'clock in the town hall of Berlin. Town officers for the year will be nomi- nated. 80 far there appear to be four candidates for the republican nomination for first selectman al- though two of them have not made formal announcement as yet. The reported candidates are Leon Hall, John Carbo, George Alling and the encumbent, George C. Carter. The last two have not signified their in- tentions. Approaching Marriage A marriage license was issued to Bennie Joseph Huck of 332 Chest- nut street and Miss Stella Louis Kulper of 39 Harvard street, New Britain. The marriage will take place in 8t. Paul's church, Kensington. Miss Kulper was a former resident of Kensington, Mr. Huck is a New Britain policeman. affairs he has been approached by it rcpublicans, he says, who asked him to run for office. Mr. Carbo said he will make no promises if he is elected, but that he will do everything he can to give good service and to save money for the town, He plans an active campaign which he hopes will bring him vic- tory over his other opponents for , the nomination and the election. Mr. Carbo has been a brick manu- facturer. Among the offices he has held is the presidency of the Italian Political club of Kensington. Hope for New High School Although the matter of having a new high school has been in the minds of the people of Berlin for years and at times it was given con- siderable study by officials, only to be dropped, it is being considered more seriously than ever, it is report- ed. The reason for the sudden re- vival of interest is due to the fact that tuition to the New Britain Senfor High school has been raised from $5 to $6 a week. An official declared today that the éxpense of sending the children to New Britain is $12,000 annually. It was stated that New Britain is able to pay a great portion of its teachers at the high school with the money received from Berlin. Many citizens point to the example set by Plainville in its successful solution of the problem when it built & modern high school at a comparatively small cost. School officlals would welcome any move on the part of the people of Berlin to send the children to Middletown and Meriden High schools where the tuition is smaller, they say. Five Cases In Court Five cases were' tried before |Deputy Judge Ernest Mildrum in Berlin town court last night. Joseph Kochanowsky of 1919 State street, Hamden, was fined $100 and costs, $50 of which was remitted for driving while under the influence of liquor during the holiday week-end. |He was represented by Attorney B. J. Monkiewicz of New Britain. Frank MacArthur of Beckley was fined $10 and costs for assaulting his wife. Joseph Scomoni was sent to the state reformatory for breaking into the home of the late Eugene Hart and attempting to steal a violin and other articles. He was arrested last evening. The case of Willlam Lee, colored, who was arrested at Silver Lake Inn was discharged. He was represented by Attorney Howard Drew of Hart- ferd. Richard Hauzwell of Port Chester was not in court last mght and his case was continued for two weeks. He was arrested for reckless driving. New Britain Car ‘While driving in an northerly di- rection on the Berlin turnpike yes- terday afternoon, Fred Ambold of 274 Myrtle street escaped injury when the coupe in which he was rid- ing crashed into a fence. One of the boards pierced the front end of the car and went through to the back. Ambolt attempted 1o make a sweep around two approaching cars which were side by mde but his sweep was too wide. He was forced to make the move when an ap- proaching car attempted to cut out of the line of traffic. Policeman John Lewis fnvesti- gated and found no cause for arrest. Thrown From Wagon In Accident Carl Ziel, 7¢ years old, of Ken- sington, suffered a fracture of the left leg, lacerations of the left hand and bruises about the face when his wagon was struck by an auto- mobile and he was thrown out at about 7 o'clock last night on the Beech Swamp road. His wife, who was riding with him-at the time, suffered slight injuries and was given medical treatment at her home. Mr. Ziel was taken to the New britain General hospital. The automobile was driven by Nick Pol- umbox of Kensington.

Plainville News COURT 1S SEVERE AFTER BOOZE A Nelsto and Wile Fioed $900 Tor Liquor Violations HIT-RUN DRIVER FIN Avon—New School Term Under way—Grange Opens Season—Ex- cursion Trains to Stop Heve, The hand of the law fell weightily upon Samuel Melesko and his wife, Annie Melesko, last evening when Justice William Cunningham impos- ed heavy fines upon them as the result of a stock of liquor found in their Kent street home Sunday night by a trio of local constables. Charged with reputation and with keeping liquor with intent to sell, each of the Meleskos was fined $50 and costs upon each count. It was the first offense of the Kent street couple, Grand Juror Charles F. Conlon had a battery of witnesses to dis- charge against the prisoners, Con- stables C. H Saunderes, E W. Fur- rey, and E. W. Farrar testified that they had raided the place Sunday evening and found about three and a half gallons of alcohol in two containers in a bedroom trunk.

He had watched the place himself, he testified, and had complained to the authorities after seeing enough to warrant belief liquor was being sold. " The Meleskos pleaded not guilty and denied selling any liquor. The alcohol, Mr. Melesko sald, had been purchased because he expected visi- tors from the “old country.” Both defendants were allowed to cross- examine the witnesses for the stato but could not shake their testimony. Justice Cunningham found both defendants guilty and imposed sen- tence.They appealed and were re- leased under $500 bonds, which were furnished by a Mr. Schultz of Mountain View Hit and Run Driver Fined John Massoletti of Avon learned last night that a motorist should stop immediately after being involved in esterd I?
