Men Injured in Crash Evidently travelling at a fm«'l- rate of speed, & car travelling on Farn- ington avenue in the dircction of New Britain struck the abutment under the bridge at the railroad un- derpass In Kensington about 3 o'clock this morning. On account of the early hour of the morning no constables investigated the crash ,E"d the nature of the injuries received by the occupants of the car and the cause of the accident remains unknown. According to appearances around the bridge, the people in the acci- For Boys 3 to 8 Wash top and wool pants—smart lit- turers of children’s suits, values to $3.95. dent were evidently badly cut from glase. ‘Glass was strewn around the road for a great distance and there were large puddies of blood. Rail- road officials in the Berlin depot stated that they hear? the crash and one of the rairrvua Inen said that he walked down near the vi- cinity of the bridge and noticed the car up against the abutment and three men standing near it. One of the men seemed to be badly cut about the face. Deep indentations on the cemenrt abutment indicate that the car was traveling at a fast rate of speed. Spots of blood are to be seen very plainly on the side of it. Evidently the car was able to proceed on its own power following the accident and it is thought that the men con- tinued on to New Britain to have their injuries taken care of. The sight of the glass and the large puddles of blood on the road aroused much interest during the orning and there were many in- quries concerning the nature of the accident. Truck Hits Pole While attempting to get the wheels of hi truck ffom the (rolley tracks on Worthington ridge shortly before 9 o'clock this morning when they became caught he was pro- ceeding along the street in the direc- tion of Meriden, Martin Thomas of Beston suddenly turned the driving wheel causing the truck to skid and crash into & pole on the side of the R s et Beautiful 1929 Calendars ‘Compitment: PATSY SISTI A.

Hallowe'en Passes Quictly Although there were large num- bers of youngsters and young men traveling about Rerlin and Kensing- ton in gangs last evening, they re- frained from any serious pranks and outside of harmless play, the town passed a quiet evening. Constables were out in full force and held the situation well in hand. Children in the Worthington ridge district amused themselves earlier in the evening by cavorting around with a wagon on the street. This morning motorists were greeted with the sight of two wagon wheels perched on the top of the flag pole at the memorial park at Boston corners.

Voters who have been checked at 6 o'clock Tuesday evening may vote, even if they have not yet en- tered the machines, Moderator John E. Lamb stated this morning in an- {|swering a question which has been puzzling local voters since the pos- sibility of jammed balloting places has become apparent. Judge B. W. Alling, attorney general of Connec- ticut, has ruled that voters in line at 6 o'clock will be unable to vote. Mr. Lamb, in common with the vot- ing officials in surrounding locali- ties, has interpreted this to refer to those who are in line to be checked. If a voter has been checked, Mr. Lamb holds, he has started his vote and will be allowed to complete it by entering the machine and oper- ating it. Further, the checkers' list must add up to the same total as that shown on the machines, which would not be the case if any who had been checked were prevented from voting. Mr. Lamb pointed out that if all 2313 persons on the voting list ex- ercise their privilege it will be nec- essary for the checkers to. mark off on the average of three persons a minute and for the voters to pass through the three machines at bet- ter than one a minute. The 12 hours and three machines give only 2160 voting minutes for the 2313 voters. Questions as to who was eligible to vote were also cleared up by Mr. Lamb, who has received an opinion on this matter from Attorney Gen- eral Alling. Single persons may claim the right to vote in any town where they claim residence and where they are on the voting list. Married people who have lived in Plainville but have moved away within the past six months may vote here unless they have moved out of {the state, in which case they have lost their voting privileges in Con- necticut. Democratic Rally Sunday Winchell Smith of Karmington, jcclebrated author and playwright, will be the principal speaker at a rally to be staged in the Strand thea- ter Sunday afternoon under the aus- pices of the Smith-Robinson club. Mr. Smith has been a life-long re- publican but one of the first of na- tionally known men to announce his preference for Governor Alfred k. Smith for the presidency. Immedi- ately after the nomination of the New York governor at the demo- cratic national convention in Hous- ton, Texas, he made his announce- ment and he has worked untiringly for his election since that time. His speaking tour has been con- tined mostly to the large cities n | this state and in New York. Sharing the platform with Mr. Smith will be two other prominent wpeakers, Thomas Q. Harrison of the Yale Divinity school of New Haven, one of the outstanding figures of the 1928 camphign, and Mrs. Mayro | Miner of Unionville. Mrs. Miner has a message of particular interest to it is said. The three speakers will discuss the issues of the campaign and the Smith-Robinson club Invites all voters of Plainville to attend. An opportunity at the end of the ad- dresses will be offered to anyone who cares to ask, either publicly or priv. ately, any questions. The doors of the theater will be opened at 1:45 o'clock and an organ recital will be given preceding the opening of the meeting. Other en- tertainment will be furnished dur- ing the afternoon.

The streets were filled with groups of young- sters in all manner of weird cos- tumes and there was quite a bit of shouting and other noise-making, but there was little property dam- aged by the celebrants, and no com- plaints were made to Constable Schubert or the other officers who did duty during the evening, Several catch basin covers on Broad street were lifted up by one group of boys. Another gang secur- ed an old horse-drawn spreader and placed it on the high school lawn ,near the tlagpole, but Janitor Ed- | ward Conlon had a fair idea as to who did it and this morning he made {the suspects remove the vehicle and | place it in a field across the stres The bell in the “knitting mill” was rung.

This would easily happen, provided each voter-availed himselt of the one minute voting period al- lowed him by law. Section 716, page 178, of the election and natural tion laws of the state of Connect cut, concludes as follows: “No voter shall remain within the voting ma- chine booth or compartment longer than one minute, and, if he shall refuse to leave such booth or com- partment after the lapse of that time, he shall at once be removed Ly the election officials or upon or- der of the moderator.” The revised lists of the four voting districts of the city show a total of | 3,184 voters in the first district, 1,- 378 in the second district; 2,909 voters in the third district; and 2,- $47 in the fourth district . Each district except second has four voting machines, the sccond, which is the smallest in the city, having two. In the event each voter uppearing in the first district con- | sumes the entire minute to which he is entitled by law, it would that but 240 would be registered each hour or a total of 2,880 for the period between 6 a. m., and 6 p. m., the pollin ghours. This would leave #04 voters whe would be unable to cast their vote.

It is thought probable that it may bhe necessary to place it in use in the first voting district late in the day to accommiodate the heavy vote an- ticipated. Aged Resident Dies Mrs. Geierstein W.
