Griswold Quarantines, 14 Gases fn Wook LOCAL SGOUTS GET AWARDS Berlin Turnpike Scene of Two Auto- mobile Crashes—Repairs Being Made by State Highway Depart- ment in Kensington—1Items, An extensive epidemic of measles and chickenpox is prevalent in Ber- lin and New Britain, according to a statement made this morning by Dr. Roger M. Griswold, local health officer. Last week 14 cases of measles were quarantined by Dr. Griswold and many more than that were quarantined in New Britain. According to the health ofticer, whooping cough is prevalent in East Berlin and Kensington in addition to_chickenpox. In speaking of the unusual prev- alence of these dizeast in Berlin and New Britain during the past week, Dr. Griswold stated that ths epidemic is largely due to the par- ents of the children. In most cases the parents do not call a physician to see the cases and do not report them to the health of- ficer as the law requires them to do. Many of the cazes could be easily avoided and the necessary steps taken to prevent the spread of the diseases if the parents of the chil. dren would call in a doctor as soon as the'sickness sets in, stated Dr. Griswold. In an effort to check any further epread of the diseases in Berlin, Dr. Griswold urges the peo- ple of the town to cooperate with him and obey the law by notifying him at once when a case of measles or chicken-pox breaks out among their children. Arrested After Acvident A collision on the Berlin turnpike yesterday morning about 5 o'clock between a car driven by Michael Vodmer of 229 Midland street, Bridgeport, and a machine operated by Charles M. Johnson of 381 Farm- ington avenue, resulted in the arrest of both drivers. Constable Irank Brown investigated the accident and placed Vodmer under zrrest on a charge of reckless driving and Johnson for driving without lights. Charles Vodmer and his wife, Margaret, who were passengers in Michael Vodmer's car, were slightly injured and were taken to the Meri- den hospital, where they were treated for lacerations about the face and body. They were allowed to £0 to their homes after being treat- ed. The cases of both men will ap- pear at the Berlin town court on next Tuesday evening. According to Constable Brown, the accldent took place near the Bruce farm. The Bridgeport man, apparently unable to notice John- son’s machine approaching without lights, was going up the steel hill at at excessive rate of speed, it is charged. Both cars were turned over by the force of the impact and were wrecked. Accident on Turnpike A car driven by Everett Cole of East Berlin was sideswiped by an- other machine operated by Fitzhugh I. Page of Boston, MaseZ while crossing the highway to drive into a driveway near the Webster farm on the Berlin turnpike late Wednes- day afternoon According to reports, Cole was traveling north on the turnpike with Choice As Gifts dark skins, quality pelts ... ... dark skins .......... $194.50, better kinds ........ $151.80, ge directly behind him.

This step is due to the outbreak of smallpox in the neighboring town of Unionville. The smallpox is of the virulent Canadian type and not of the mild form which has been epi- demic in several Connecticut cities in recent years. Because of this fact onville, the school and health authorities have decided upon drastic measuges to prevent a spread of the malady to this town. 1t is belicved than half a dozen that hardly more children will be cannot be ascertained until the school records are examined Monday. Those whe are found to be unvaccinated, re- gardless of whether or not they have excuses from physicians, will be kept from school unless they submit to inoculation at this time.

There are five cases of scarlet fever, an additional one having been reported over the holiday. Two Hurt, Three Arrested Two persons were taken to the Britain General hospital and three were arrested early yesterday morning as Thanksgiving Day in Plainville opened with a very literal bang in the form of an automobile ccident on the New Britain road iust west of Cooke street. The a |cident occurred about 1:30 o'clocl when a sedan operated by Albe Montella of 222 South street, Bris- tol, was overturned and demolished by a roadster owned by Charls Bernstein of Church street, New Britain, gnd driven by Joseph Pac 71 High street, New Britain, Montella miraculously escaped without a cut or a scratch, but Paz sustained a bad cut on the arm in addition to numerous other minor cuts, Mrs, Ellen Gazda of New Britain, as passenger in the car op- ted by Pac. also received cuis and bruises. The two were sent to te hospital by Constable George Schubert, who was called to the cene of the accident. Schubert’s investigation showed that Pac had been on the left side of the road when he struck Mon- tella. The officer also believed tha man was intoxicated—the presence of two bottles of supposed liquor in the car strengthening this belief— but Pac was bleeding so profusely that this was not ascertained. A warrant has been issued for his ar- rest on a charge of reckless d ing, and Pac will he brought into court on Tuesday morning. Both cars were badly damaged. the Bristol machine being reduced to worthlessne While Schubert was gathering in- formation ahonut the accident. he summoned Constable B.

Clark of the same city, came along the highway at a high rate of speed. Wadsworth flashed- his light and whistled, but Cunningham did not heed him. The blocking of tha road by Bernstein's car, however, forced the Hartford man to stop, and Schubert took him and Clark. who was in the car into custody. Wadsworth went with the pair to the office of Dr. George 1. Cook, who pronounced them both under the influence of liquor. They were tried yesterday morn- ing before Justice William Cun- ningham, with Grand Juror Charles HIS FRIENDS were | ¥. Cenlea prosecuting.

Wilson of the Brass corporation. Beth inti- mated that no proposal had been consldered by the directors and Mr. Harper expressed the opinion that the rumor was simply one which probably originated in Wall Street. The New York Herald-Tribune on Thanksgiving Day carried a story to the effect that steps were reported under way to bring tegether the fabricating end of the copper indus- try in the United States and that it was understood that the Phelps cor. poration was consideripg the forma- tion of such a faWricating unit around the Bristol Brass corporation of this city and the Bridgeport Brass 1Company of Bridgepost. A similar despatch was also recelved from the Associated Press from Wall street. The local corporation is one ot Bristol's oldest manufacturing con- cerns and much local capital is in- vested In it. During the past several months its business has shown a marked increase and on Thursday it was heing offered at 40, the highest mark it has reached in several years. Stolen Car Abandoned The automobile of Roland Boeth of Terryville Road, which was stelen from Main street early Thanksgiving Day morning, was found later {n the day abandoned on Pine street. Mr. Booth was attending the midnight show at the Casino theater and did not miss the car until about 2:40 a. m. It is the opinion of the police that someone “horrowed” the car with a view of reaching home. At that hour fn the morning there are no ether means of transportation except taxi service and the party stealing the car evidently did not care to go te that expense. To 'rease Facilities Sixteen thousand additional square feet of floor space will be added to the Broad street plant, Forestville, |of the Wallace Barnes company, ac- cording to an announcement made by officials of that concern Wednes- day. It is also planned to erect an addition of 8,000 square feet for the heat treating department of the con- cern on Main street. Other additions on Wallace street will also be erect- ed and in all the total floor space of the company will be increased ap- proximately 200,000 feet. . Work on the proposed addition will be started very shortly. Electric Pole Falls Traffic on Summer street was tied up for a short period Thanksgiving Day morning when a large wooden pole, supporting the trolley wire for the Woodland street line, broke off near its base and 'l(reet. The trolley wire and several Suy wires were sirung across the street so that it was necessary to di- vert all traffic. Trolley service on the Woodland street line was also de- layed until the pole could be re. placed. Grass Fire Squad A of the central fire sta- tion was called out Thanksgiving Day afternoon for a grass fire on Upson street, which for a time threatened several nearby buildings. The blaze was extinguished with chemicals, Christmas Checks i The American Trust company placed in the mails today checks for Christmas club members totalling approximately $54.000.
