This figure is more than twice as large as any previous mark set by the town. ‘The, average figure beore a presi- dential election has always been close to 200, Before the town election, 280 resi- dents were made voters and during . the past two Baturdays the select- men admitted 164 to the clectors’ vote. These high figures are attribut- ed to the great interest n the com- ing presidential campaign although the interest in the town election ran higher this year than has been the case In previous years. In comparing last years' figures ‘Wwith this year in regard to the num- ber of voters made before the town election, the statistics show that only 36 received the oath last year while 280 were made voters this year.

Boss— 0’Sullivan,Donovan Speak FALSE ALARM OF FIRE Firemen Make Long Run in Vain— Man Threw Knife At Wife—High School and Blues Win Games— 186 New Voters Made—Bricfs, Charges that J. Henry Roraback, chairman of the republicail state central committee, lobbied out of existence a proposed bond issue of $10,000,000 for state institutions were made yesterday afternoon at the bipartisan rally in the Strand theater by John F. Pickett of Mid- dletown, democratic nominee for state comptroller, Mr. Pickett said that Senator Frederic C. Walcott had proposed such a bond issue, but that Roraback and other prominent re- publicans gathered at the Hartford club on March 8, 1927, and, “after the party had drunk much ice water, it was decided that there would be no bond issue. Now, what right did he have to do this 1 am unable to find where he has ever been chosen for office by electors in this state.” Mr. Pickett assailed the Trumbull administration for alleged failure to kecp up the state institutions. He criticised its action in turning down the offer of land at Crescent beach made some years ago by Anson T. McCook for such purposes. He also read reports to show that almost 500 applicants were awaiting admission to the Mansfield home and declared that inadequate facilities at the Atate insane inatitutions are prevent- ing many from receiving needed care.

Young, executive of the General Electric Co., with which the local Trumbull Electric Mfg. Co. is con- nected.

S8eymour, chairman of the republican town committee, and by William J. Foran, the democratic chairman. C. T.

In the second period Al King intercepted a Litchfield forward pass at midfield and raced to the 18-yard line before he was downed.
