POLICEMAN SUES FOR AUTO GRASH Sullivan Brings Action for Col- lision on October 19 As a result of the automobile col- lision between Officer James Sulli- van of the local police department and Joseph Babula last Friday morning, the policeman today insti- tuted suit for $500. against Katherine Farmer, owner of the machine which Babula was driving and who accord- ing to the allegations of the plain- tiff, carelessly and negligently drove his machine into that of the officer, causing considerable damage. The accident took place at the in- tersection of Stanley and Park streets, when it is claimed, the de- fendant's agent failed to stop whenibeen refused. Mr. it was apparent that he would strike the plaintiff's car. As a result of the collision, the plaintiff claims he had lost use of the car and paid large sums of money for its repair. Deputy Sheriff Martin Horwitz, who served the papers and attached the car of the defendant in a Hart- ford garage, had some dm‘lcmty in making the service as the gar: owner made him understand Ihat he could not attach the car inasmuch a8 the machine was his property and went so far as to threaten Mr. Hor- wits with bringing the police to stop him from making the attachment. Mr. Horwits told him he had no ob- jection and proceeded with the us- ual routine of making the service. In the meantime the garage owner telephoned the West Hartford po- lice station and a sergeant was de- tailed to investigate the trouble. It was not necessary for Mr. Horwitz to Identify himself and the officer stated to the owner that in accord- ance with the law Mr. Horwitz had suthority to make the service and take the car. At first Mr. Horwitz had no intentions of taking the car, but when the owner became offen- sive he ordered the car taken to New Britain. Attorney Lawrence J. Go- ton is representing the plaintiff.

DISPUTE GUSTODY OF SEIZED LIQUOR Gourt Judge fo Deferming Own- ership of Three Gallons A hearing will be held in police court next Tuesday on the matter of condemnation of three gallons of liquor seized at the home of Efram Noveck of 193 Hartford avenue in a raid a few months ago. Attorney Monroe 8. Gordon, counsel for Novek, appeared before Judge H. P. Roche in court tqday and asked that a date be set. Noveck, he said, was convicted on one. count of violation of the liquor law but took an appeal to superior court, where the case was nolled. Judge Roche sald he belleved it might be found that when the appeal was taken, the case - immediately went out of the jurisdiction of police court, and he requested Attorney Gordon to look up this point. Prosecuting Attorney Woods said | he was famillar wtih the law on this point, having looked into it in another case, and he was positive that the action must be brought fn police court and if the state is suc- cessful, an appeal may be taken to the court of common pleas, civil side, Attorney Gordon said he has been unable to learn who has the custody of the liquor. He has made request to Chief Hart for its return and has Woods said the state would be ready to proceed at any time and Judge Roche said he would hear it if both sides were satistied that police court was the proper tribunal, BRISTOL NEWS (Continued from Page Seven) club will be held this evening at the Lome of Mrs. Charles Morgan of 377 Main street.

Elson (By the Herald Reviewer) Jack Dempsey, fornfer heavy- weight champion of ' the world,—in the flesh—is appearing at Parsons’ theater, Hartford, the first part in the week in a play built around events in his life. It is called— you've guessed it—"The Big Fight.” It provides three rounds of interest- ing entertainment without contribut. ing a single punch to the drama. What “Broadway” is to night club life, “Burlesque” to the world of the galloping cornfeds, and “Ex- cess Baggage” to vaudeville, “The Big Fight” is to the boxing racket. It is one of those stories which are described as—you've guessed it again—a cross section of life. The play is not the thing. John Harrison Dempsey is. The Manassa Mauler received a flattering recep- tion last nright from the time of his| first appearance until he won the | gal. Six curtain culls followed the first act and as many followed the second. It was a personal triumph Battiers Becond Messenger Boy Officer Kelly for Jack, who found that he has advt. many warm admirers in this part of Connecticut. His auditors secemed to seize upon his every line as signifi- cant, For example when he declaim- ed that he had many good fights in | | him yet—speaking as a character in the play—there was loud handclap- ping. Other statements into which a double meaning could be read were applauded. Jack Dillon (known as the Tiger) is in love with A Shirley Moore, a manicurist in a barber shop. His manager, Steve Logan, whose ob- jective is not matrimony, has his eye on the girl. Steve poisons Jack's mind against Shirley and another romance seems fair to go on the rocks. Shirley's brother, Lester, is a | weakling, a snivelling yellow crook. He double crosses Chuck Sloan, a big gambler, on a bet and Chuck sets his gang after him. In order to szve her brother Shirley agrees at Chuck's suggestion to put dope in Jack's water bottle the night he meets Bat. tling Baker in defense of his world heavywelght championship title. It is this way—8loan and Logan have bet a million on Baker. But Shirley just can't go through with the scheme and the Tiger knocks Baker out in the second round, retains his crown, gets six hundred grand as his share of the gate and wins the gal. Harrlet E. McGibbon, who is tak- ing Estelle Taylor's place in the cast, makes an appealing Shirley | Moore. The outstanding actor in the company is Arthur R. Vinton as the | cynical, unscrupulous gambler who frequently asserts that “when I pick, STRAND TODAY and WED.

Times Square barber, is a natural. Mary Robinson displays just enough worldly wisdom to be very good as Winnie, another mlnicu“st. As for Dempsey—well, Jack's a nice fellow. And taking into consideration the fact that he still has a punch left and has a long reach, the least said about his dramatic skill the better. Owen Martin is good as Battling Baker's manager and Frank Collins paints a satisfactory picture in his role. There is no end of celebrities, including Bartley Madden, “Gerry the Greek," and Joe Bernstein, the world's champion something or other. “The Big Fight” will be fought over again tonight and tomorrow night with a matinee Wednesday.
