Berlin News CONPLETE REPAIS ON LOGAL STREETS Roads Are Put in Condition for Winter Months TROLLEY TRACKS FIXED Registration Number Given By In- jured Man Proves Incorrect— Scout Mcetings Tomorrow Evening —Meceting of East Berlin Fire Dis. The state highway depar completed extensive repairs on Worthington rirge and the street is now in condition to take care of the heavy tra during the winter months, Amiesite has been laid along the nside of the trolley tracks. making the rails even with the road and eliminating a menace that hes been existing on the street since the abandonment of the trolley line. Repairs have been made from Boston Corners to the end of the trolley trucks in front of the resi- dence of Dr. T. C. Hodgson.. Many accidents have occurred in late years because the trolley tracks extended a full inch above the surface of the roud. Accidents during the winter on the strect were blamed on the rails, drivers claiming that the snow #nd ice buried them and that th wheels of their machines becan caught in them as they proccedea along the street. According to the state highway department, the repairs made on the street during the past few weeks will take carc of the present needs. In a few years it will be necessary to rcpave the entire street, accord- ing to the state officials, and they did not want te go into this expense this year. Repairs was also made to the highway in the locality of Doston Corners as well as to the entrance of Hudson street. Large gaping holes made the corner of Worthington ridge and Hudson strect dangerous to motorists but a surface of amie- wite has eliminated this condition. Other workmen from the state d partment have been at work in K sington patching up the roads with amiesite in an attempt to make them presentable for travel during the winter months. Took Wroug Number Following an investigation of the accident Saturday evening on the Berlin turnpike, Constable Frank Brown has discovered that the regis- tration number takén by Allen Neilson of Beckley, the victim of the accident, was incorrect. Neilson had parked his car on the side of the highway and was chang- fng a tire when a machine came along on the same side of the roaq and struck him, the driver continu- ing on without stopping. Neilson was badly cut ahout the body and his left wrist was injured. For few days it was thought that his Ieft leg was fractured but an X-ray examination proved there were no broken’ bones.

He ed that instead of bothering with ails such an infraclions of park- Jing regulations which is the work of the town officials, the members of the chamber should turn their eyes towards the establishment and fostering of a community spirit. He stated that there has been much criticism of the Chamber of solely because the Bunce hop=s |chamber has not been functioning biggest legion |as it should. He pointed out that one of the leading manufacturing concerns of the town had considera- ble painting to be done but it has hired outside help to d» it instead a Plainville businessman He cited another in- {stance where another sidewalk lay- {ing job had been given to an outside |concern while there were plenty of 'such concerns in Plainville. °| He said that he didn't wonder 2 'that many of the store keepers and | Cushing and fother businessmen in the town re- the [fused to join the chamber when the ileaders in that body gave theit |patronage outside.

Bristol News OUTSIDERS' WOES TIRING TO JUDGE Newcomers' Domestic Discord Begins to Annoy Court STATEMENT “BY REICHE| School Superintendent Explains Deg ficit In Department Slick Crook Works Gan auces— “Envelope "—Master Paintcrs Organize. Just why the city of Bristol should be burdened with the family trouble: of persons coming here from Maine and Vermont was a problem which Judge Willlam J. Malone in the city court today said that he would like to have solved. His remarks were made during the case of Leo St Amand, who arrived in Bristol a week ago, and who was arrested last evening upon complaint of his wife. Mrs. St. Amand testified that she came to Bristol three months ago with her young daughter and since that time has been working in a local factory. Her husband arrived a week ago and for a similar period was employed in a local restaurant. She informed the court that since they were married, 8t. Amand had drifted from one job to another and that it was necessary for her to seek assistance from members of her own family to support three boys, who are now in a home. St. Amand, in his own defense, stated that he had given up the res- taurant job because it paid him only $5 a week, He expressed willing- ness to support his family if he were given time to get a job in a factory, but Judge Malone believed that the city would be hetter oft if both St. Amand and his wife left the city. At this point, Louis St. Amand, hrother of the accused man, inform- ed the court that he would see that they departed from the city limits within three weeks. With this un- cerstanding, the case was continued until December 26. Moquin Non-support Case Edward Moquin of Barlow street, charged with failure to support his wife and five children, was sentenc- cd to 60 days in jail or to post a bond of $500 to pay his wife $15 a week. Moquin wus arrested on the co plaint of Charity Commissioner W lism I, Smithwick, who informed the court that the city had been obliged to assume the expense of the family’s support most of the time since | . He also stated that Mo- quin refused to hold a job for any length of time for the reason that he was aware that the city would of necessity have to support the chil- dren. Mogquin testified that on his last job, where he remained but six hours, he had been fired and did not get through as intimated Dby the charity commissioner. He is a cot- ton spinner by trade and according to the ruling of the court, will be obliged to find work immediately so that he will be able to start his pay- ments next week. Case Continued The case of John Brown of 23 Main street, charged with failure to send his™44 year old boy to school, was continued by Prosecuting Attor- ney Robert J. Stack today until Jan- vary 7. Brown was notified by the police to appear in court at §:30 this morn- ing. This he failed to do and as a result he was arrested shortly after 9 a. m., by Sergeant Henry Jeglinski on a warrant issued by the prosecut- or’s off Reiche Issucs Statement Superintendent of 8chools Karl A. Reiche today commended the Herald for its fair explanation of the 1 school budget deficit of $1 796.59, which was the subject of dis- cussion at last Tuesday night's coun- cil mecting and for which a defi- clency appropriation was voted. Feel- ing that the situation calls for a |signed explanation, Mr. Reiche has submitted the following statement: “Following close upon a meeting of the city council to pass upon ap- propriations for the fiscal year of the city beginning December 1, 1928, came today a pointed statement from Superintendent Karl A. Reiche of the unfair position the school de- purtment is placed in each year in reference to appropriations, and the necessity of excceding them, due to the fact that the fiscal year of the city does not dovetail with the fiscal year of the schools. Mr. Reiche today stated that his department was obliged each year to exceed its appropriations, He states that five and threc years ago he wrote to the city council pointing out the weakness of the system. The school department has exceeded it ppropriations by the sum of $15.- 6.59. The first idea the superin- tendent had of the amount was at five o'clock Tuesday evening when the city clerk’s office notified him of the amount. It was impossibic for Mr. Reiche to present a statement to the council in the few heours ve- maining before the council meeting for the reason that the city clerk's oflice at this hour informed him that it was a much larger amount and when the amount was accurately ar- rived at, be could not present to the council a statement in the short time allowed. “The school department in esti- mating a budget for any one year must follow the state law. Teachers are engaged in April of each year and, especially with first year teachers, at increased salaries. Teachers who are to be retained cannot be determined in advance nor the amount of increases in salaries, nor is it possible for the school de- partment to figure salaries for addi- tional teachers who are to be en-, gaged during any one year. The amount which the department has | had to exceed its apropriation Ior| the year ending December 1, 1928 is | largely accounted for by the sum of $12,704.63 which represents the exces of salaries over the amount provided for in the appropriations. | Mr. Reiche feels this figure is un- fair to the department since during | this year one-half of this amount represents one week of salaries paid | in advance and into the new fiscal year. This puyment into December | was made in consultation with the city clerk's office because of the Thanksgiving holidayand to prevent | ssary work in sending out s two weeks in succeasion. he balance of the amount i§ ac- counted for in this way: $3092.06 represents expenditures for sundries. The manual training department, in August purchased supplies for one year, at a saving, with the result that the department has on hand $1600 of supplies which are to be used during the remaining school year, which falls short threc months of the city fiscal year. “Tuesday evening before the meet- ing of the council, when informed Ly the cily clerk’s department of the amount of the overdraft, Mr. Reiche asked for a detailed report and was told that it was impossible to get out this for several days. He has no criticism of that condition, but feels that the city officials should not lay at his door the failure to give on short notice figures explaining the excess, when the city clerk’s depart- ment could not in turn furnish him with a report for that year. “Today, Mr. Reiche, while mnot *|disposed to be critical felt that the position he had been placed in, en- titled him to a fair hearing before the council on proper notice which can be had at the next meeting. he situation obtaining in Bris- tol is covered in other cities by an allowance in the original appropria- tions from year to year, and it is felt that the present situation will prove helpful in paving the way for a clearer understanding of the city council and the school department, and enable the latter to function with some degree of latitude without the necessity from year to year of exceeding its appropriation. This can be covered only by an allowance in advance for just this condition, as has been recommended by the su- perintendent in two former letters. “Superintendent Reiche enjoys the reputation among superintendents of the state which is second to none, and is frequently consulted by them individually and at official meetings for advice. 'The opinion in the city today was one of regret that the de- partment was unable to give at the natural request of the council, infor- mation concerning the same, simply because of lack of proper notice.” Envelope Game Worked Although the envelope game of swindling had its origin a number of years ago, one Bristol merchant. whose name the police refused to divulge, saw it worked for the first time Wednesday with himself as the vietim, Late in the afternoon a well dressed stranger appeared in the merchant’s store and displaying & quantity of change, asked that it be exchanged for a ten dollar bill. The merchant handed over the ten dollar bill which the stranger placed in an envelope while the sorekeeper was counting the money. A count of the change, however, devedoped that it | was short 20 cents of the required ten dollars, to which the stranger |expressed surprisc and then pro- ceeded to. count the money himself. He verified the storekeeper's count | and then handed the latter the en- velope, retaining the change and saying that he would return in a few minutes with the necessary 20 cents. The storekeeper, after w ing for a short time. opened the en- velope only to find that it contained a piece of paper. While he was counting the coin, the stranger witched envelopes unnoticed. While the police believed that the | swindle would be attempted on other merchants, no further complaints had been reccived at headquarters this morning.

M—The award of a Yale major football letter to D. Hastings Hickek, ef this city, on Tuesday, added a fourth possessor of the “Y" to this family. To add te the unusual parallel, he gained ft in the capacity of a lineman just as the other three Hickoks did. “Hickok of Harrisburg” first came into the limelight of Yale gridiron history back in 1893, 189¢ and 1895 when W .0. Hickok, third, starred as a guard on the famous Eli eleven of those years. In doing s0 he won & place on Walter Camp's “All-Ameri. ca” eleven in three consecutive mea- sons and set a mark which none of his relatives has quite been able to equal. In addition, he further dis- tinguished himeself by winning the intercollegiate shot-put and hammer throw titles for three years. Ross A. Hickok, & brother, brought the second “Y” into the family. He was a member of the class of '97 and won his letter a tackle. W. O. Hickok, Sth, son of W. O., 3rd, and a member 6f the class of 1926, followed the footsteps of his father and gained his “Y" in the capacity of a guard, This year, D. Hastings, son of Ross A., moved the Hickok name from the center of the line to the extremity and won his letter as an end, playing in all of the Yale games this season. |Believe Men Not Guiity of Holdup Fitchburg, Mass., Dec. 6§ (UP)— Police officiuls stated here today that they were convinced that Ale bert Moreau and Frank Boudreau, under arrest in Bridgeport, Conn., had no knowledge of a hold-up and murder which occurred recently in Clinton. They stated that when the youths were returning to Massachusetts, later today, Moreau would face a charge of carrying a revolver, while his pal would be turned over to Lancaster police on a charge of breaking, entering and larceny. A few days ago, Fitchburg pelice sought to connect Moreau and Boudreau with the Clinton murder, but they said today they had found no evidence to indicate that either | was implicated.
