Last year Hallowe’en was celebrated very quietly and the evening passed without any serious mishaps. Harm- less pranks were played by the youngsters about town but the con- stables were only called in on one case. Some boys placed a number of corn cobs on the bridge by the American Paper Goods and set them afire but the constables extinguished the blaze before any damage was done, 3 Definite orders concerning the policing of the town tomorrow eve- ning by the constables are expected- - ed to be issued this evening by First Belectman Leon G.

Unanimous sentiment against the proposal of the town plan commis- sion to set back the building line on both sides of West Main street was expressed last night at a hearing held by the commission, Four prop- erty owners were present in person i| or were represented, and a fifth had sent & letter containing its disap- proval of the suggested change. The commission withheld action on the the question, The plan of the commission was to set back the building line from its present three feet to ten feet, thereby preventing the erection of buildings so close to the street that they might interfere if it were de- 1cided to widen the street at some .| future date. Joseph T. McCarthy opposed the change on the ground that it would damage his proparty on that street. A. A. MacLeod, representing the Plainville Trust Co. thought the present line preferable, feeling that buildings close to the street were more valuable. In reply to his ques- tloning, Chairman John E. Lamb of the commission stated that the pro- posal originated within the commis- sion and was not instigated by any petition from property owners. Mr. Lamb said today that it is entirely within the province of his body to suggest such changes as it may feel necessgry. Walter Wisk of New Britain told the commission that he was plan- ning to build on the south side of the street and that the widening would make it necesary for him to change his plans and might prevent {any construction whatever. Mr. Bur- well, representing B, O. Barnard of Bristol, said his client preferred the present line, A letter had been re- celved from the Sequassen Corp., saying that that group was opposed to any change, as it intended to build out toward the street when its lease on the old Sequassen building expired. There was no sentiment in favor of the wjdening. Chairman Lamb explained today that the proposed change would af- fect a few temporary structures but no permanent buildings other than one brick storehouse on the south side of the street, while on the north side only the new Sequassen build- ing is much over the suggested line. The Newton and Byington blocks tre just about on the ten-foot line, he continued. The three-foot line, he said, would permit the addition of two feet onto the brick storchouse at West Main and Pierce streets and would allow the Newton and Bying- tan blocks to be extended seven feet onto the present sidewalk if the owners desired. The second hearing of the night was devoted to the establishment of street, building, and veranda lines on Newton avenue, and this brought a division of opinion among the pro- perty owners, some being in favor of and some opposed to the lines sug- gested by the commission. Willing Property Owncrs The Prentice street hearing was one of the most gratifying held by the commission in a number of years, There was an exceptional represcntation of property owners present, and, in spite of the fact that the layout as proposed would entail considerable expense, all were heart- ily in faver of the plan. They ex- pressed elation at the nearness of the improvements which they have sought for so long, and they were more than willing to bear their share of the expense. After the hearings the commission approved and adopted the proposed layout of Prentice strect calling for a 50-foot street, 24-foot building line and 16-foot veranda line. Because of the lateness of the hour and the fact that the members felt the op- <“PLAINVILLE® TONIGHT Tt's & Hit “WARMING UP” with RICHARD DIX WED.—~THURS.

Radciifie Case Contimued For the second time in & week, Howard Radcliffe of Maple street was arrested last night upon fhe complaint of his wifo that he was sssaulting her. Constable B. Judd Wadsworth made the arrest and booked Radcliffe on charges of as- sault and breach of the peace. Rad- clifte was released under bonds of §100 for appearance in court this morning. Grand Juror Charles F. Conlon te. day requested Justice M. O. Ryder to continue the case until 9 e'clock tomorrow morning, as Radcliffe had secured Attorney Cyril Gaffney of New Britain to defend him and At- terney Gaftney was uynable to be present today. Justice Ryder grant. ed the continuance and continued the $100 bond. Radcliffe was found guilty eof breach of the peace last week after his wife had made a similar com- plaint. At that time he was given his choice of finding & job or serving a 30-day jail sentence. Lamb to Be Moderator John E.

Donahue, eight-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Wayne L. Donahue of Terryville, will be held at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning in the Terryville town hall by Coroner famuel A. Herman of Winsted. A number of witnesses have been sum- moned by Deputy Sheriff George Buckley at the instigation of the coroner. The Donahue boy was struck and fatally injured on McKee's hill, Ter- | ryville, Saturday evening, October 20, by a truck owned by the Harvest Bakery company of this city and operated by Alex Triscllla of Eagle street Terryville. He suffered a frac- tured skull and other injuries, dying without regaining conaciousness. Following the accident an investi- gation was made by Deputy Sheriff George Buckley and, it is under- stood, disclosed the fact that both the brakes and headlights were de- fective. No action will te taken until the completion of th> coroner's investigation, although it vas inti- mated that a charge of manslaugh- ter would be preferred against Tris- cilla. Voting Machine Instruction Tnstructions in the use of the vot- ing machines to be used at the elec- tion on November 6 will b= given to voters of the various districts on Wednesday, Thursday and Trid»y. City Clerk Thomas B. &teele and William F. Smithwick will instruct voters of the first district in the city court room; Mrs., Ella Wood and William Roberts have been ap. pointed {instructors {in the second district and will be located in Fire- men's hall, Forestville; Jamas Doyle and Clarence Lysaaght !n the third district at the headquarters of Home Company No. 2; and Davi1 Leish- man and Mrs. James McCusker in the fourth district at the Federal Hill school.

New Machines Different The four new machines purchased by the city, and which will be lo- cated in the fourth voting district, difter somewhat from the machines now in use in the second district and are materially different from those located in the other districts. The new machines will accommodate the names of 40 candidates as compared with 30 for the other machines which have been used. It is under. stood that they will be returned after election and four of the type now In use in Forestville secured to re- Place them, At the approaching elecyon there wifl be three different types of machines in use, which, in the opinion of city officials, will tend to confuse voters. With a view of standardizing vot- ing equipment in the city. it wa sug- gested this morning that the city dispose of the old style voting ma- chines and purchase ones similar to those now in use in the second vet- ing district to replace them. It is probable that such action will be considered by the city. council before the city election next year.
