MATTERS OF GAME Fishing and Hunting Laws Will Come Up Hartford, Nov. 14 (P =— When hunters, trappers, fishermen, fish and game wardens and officials from all rarts of the state meet at the capi- tol here Tuesday to consider what measures to bring before the next &eneral assembly, the state fish and | game commission, the Connecticut Humane society and sportsmen and private game clubs will present several important and interesting propositions. The state board of fisheries and game is con- sidering among other thikgs, a bill which would give the board authori- ty to declare closed geasons in vari ous types of game in case of emergency. It is also understood the board would seek legislation, giving it the same authority to quire hunting rights, with the pow er of making regulations as to their 2 unistration as now apply to the acquisition of fishing rights. other bill would give game wardens all the powers of constables, yeference to hunters. The greater protection of Connecticut's fur-bear- ing animals, especially the muskrat, is the aim of another under consid- eration and the humane society will probably present some measure to prohibit the use of certain traps. No one has yet won the prize offered for a humane trap. Board to Report The state board will alse report on its activities in fostering better velations between the farmer and sportsman and make recommenda- tions concerning the protection of the land owner. gins at 10 a. m. in the hall of the Touse of vepresentatives, and all fish and game clubs are particularly asked to send representatives.

Os- bern that he call a conference of state health, fish and game and domestic animal officials to consider possible legislation providing a quar- antine for rabbits imported into Cennecticut, either for feeding the foxes on fox farms or tor stocking the covers.

He said that he evidently had not only been duped on that score, but that he also had been tricked out of | some of the money that had been promised him. He said he only dis- covered that his copies were being sold as originals a tew months ago when a Venetian antiquary showed him a picture of an alleged Dona- tello masterpiece which he recog- nized as a copy he had made. Two or three of his statues were said to he occupying places of honor in a museum in Berlin where they were displayed along with originals of the | renaissance period. The agents were ssid to have sold his copies for sums totaling One expert in this country who has seen some of the pieces called them remarkable copies almost indis- tinguishable from the originals.

Mystery surrounding the proposed nuptials of the stage and screen star and his film actress flancee was heightened last night when a huge wedding cake, said by a downtown catering establishment to have been ordered by Barrymore, was delivered to an unrevealed address.

His first slatement after the an- vouncement was: “I think he ought to clear up the sifuation. As long as it ended up in a wedding it was all right with me, but I certainly don't like the looks of things now.” When he appiied for the license, Barrymore gave his age as 41, “Who's Who" records the date of his | Lirth as February, 1882, and a| Barrymore biography at the United | Artists studio uses that date as a basis, fixing his age at ¢6. 9 | | | WON'T STOP JURY Resignation of Safety Director . . | Will Not Hinder Work ity l Philadelphia, Nov. 24 (® — The resignation of Harry C.

District Attorney Monaghan, who | 18 directing the inquiry, said it would continue “without interrup- tion” and that the changs in the head of the police department | would not affect it “in the least.” Assistant Attorney Schofleld, an assistant district at-| torney under Monaghan, has been active in the investigation which, | since it was started nearly 15 weeks | ago, has resulted in the dismissel | from the service of 32 members of | the police department. including| three inspectors, 15 captains and four detectives. Two pther captains and three de- tectives have been convicted and sentenced to prison terms on charges lof extorting money from saloon- keepers; 52 men including two cap- tains, 29 detactives, six sergeants and fitteen patrolmen, are under ar- | rest on similar charges; an assistant superintendent of police and eight | ptaing are under suspension, and two captains have ' resigned from | the force. . | JUNIOR CITIZENS DEBATE The debafing group of the New | | Britain Junior Citizens' club debated last evening on the question, “Re- | solved, That Prohibition Should Be Abolished in the United States.” Dr. Fred Schretber supervised the de- Late, The negative side consisting of Raymend Cianflone and Victor Sca- ringe defeated the affirmative side made up of Danile Larese and Jo- | | seph Gicande. 1t was announced that debates will be held every Friday “The greatest danger that con- fronts us in Massachusetts, in my humble opinion, is the result of| avarice on the part of our ‘best peo- | ple.’ who want something more than | they are really entitled to.
