The program consisted of high music, some of the light va- and marches and salon pieces for encéres.

Her | silverware, in a bag, was on thc Kitchen table, .apparently having ‘been gathered up to be carrie ! off. | ‘The only articies she missed were two batteries and a flashlight bulb. Entrance to the tenement was | gained by removing the molding | from the base of the screen door and lifting out the screen. The time- ly arrival of Mrs. Michalowski un- doubtedly saved her silverware. At the home of Michael J.

Bergeant Stadler ia investigating. Yesterday afternoon Captain Kelly was notified that burglars were about the Davidson & Leven- thal store on Main street, where the murder of Policeman James Skelly by Gerald Chapman was committed a few years ago. He detailed Ber- geant Feeney and O'Meara and Offi- cers McCabe and Liebler, who learn- lyed that an employe of the store was working near an elevator shaft on the first floor and heard voices in the upper part of the building. “There's somsbody downstairs,” he heard, and at once ran out and no- tified the police. $ Four boys, who are believed to have gained entrance to the store by the fire escape, were seen outside and took flight AND THE SERGEANT REPLIED SHEETLY Girl Gives Boy Her Telephone, Number, Bristol 702 (Special to the Herald) Bristol, Conn., Oct. 1—Love may be blind but it is also equally dumb on occasions, if the case of a young man in New Britain who last eve- ning called_local police headquar- ters and requested to talk to a cer- tain lady -friend, may be accepted as a criterion. Shortly after 8 o'clock last night, Sergeant Henry Jeglinski was asked by a male voice over the telephone, “Is Miss there?” The name given was that of a young woman who, together with two sisters, gained considerable notoriety in connection with a police icandal in Hartford several months ago. She is also well known by the local po- llce, having been the guest of the local department on more than one occasion.. For that reason, the ser- geant informed the New k Britain swain that the party he wanted was not there just at that moment but it wouldn't surprise him greatly if she was brought in any time. After a few minutes’ conversation the New Britain man was told that |he was talking to rolice headquar- ters, telephone 702, to which he re- plied, “and that is the number she told me to call.” A sharp click of the receiver at the other end of the line was more expressive than words, which if spoken, probably could not have been printed anyway. | Miss l-l;i‘gis Takes Over Girl Scout Directorship | Miss Irene Haigis, newly appoint- | ed Girl Scout director, took over her | official duties this morning, succeed- ing Miss G s Cline, resigned.

CLAIMS REVIVAL OF OLD DRGANISHS Lis Dormant in Rocks Hundred Nillion Years Berkeley, Cal, Oct. 1 UM — An- nouncement by Dr. C. B. Lipman. professor of plant physiology at the University of California, that he be- leved he had revived micro-organ- isms which had lain dormant in |rock for one hundred million to two hundred million years was un- der the scrutiny of science here to- day. Reports Discoveries The announcement, Which was made by Dr. Lipman, who reported his discoveries to the American As- soclation for the Advancement of Science, said that these ancient or- ganisms not only lived but even re- produced their kind under culture. up to the present. Followers of Dr. Lipman said that if the process could be contin- ued with variations, the modern world might have an opportunity to examine living organisms perhaps similar to those first on earth, and that discoveries regarding the first generation of life might be forth- coming. Dr. Lipman began his experi- ments a year and a half ago with rock from Canada of the pre-Cam- brian age, the first period of geo- logical history. All Resources Used All the resources of modern bac- teriology were used to prevent the cultures in which the micro-organ- isms were placed from coming into contact with free air other agencies by which modern cteria might invade the ancient rock. Dr, Lipman said some of the pre-Cambrian rocks had been ex- posed to the air within compara- tively recent times, but that he took every possible sections of the rock so encased by other rocks that organisms sealed up there were practically certain to have been isolated. From these sealed up rock centers he took micro-organisms apparently dead, and placed them in culture plates, again sealing them from all contact with the modern world. Produces Spores In this manher he said, he profiuc-, ed’ spore-bearing rods, appearing in chains, which he was convinced were an indigefious to the rock itself. Evi- dently the ancestors of the micro- organisms found had been spore- producers, and thejr tiny offspring had been able to seal themselves up somewhat in the manner that larvae are sealed up in cocoons. Dr. Lipman also obtained other rock from the Pliocene age, estimat- ed at from one to two million years 8g0;:4nd duplicated the experiment. The Pliocenc rocks were taken from the Grand Canyon of Colorado. Dr. Lipman sald that although these micro-organisms were, in compari- son with the pre-Cambrian growths, only geological infants, the experi- ment had one advantage over the other, because the rocks had been obtained from a great depth leaving room for little doubt that modern organisms could find their way into the cultures.
