A “IN $15.000 ACTION fnignal Tor Defdast in ;Mdcmkmlhmsnt Judgment for the defendant to recover costs was rendered in su- perior court yesterday by Judge Al- lyn Brown in the $15,000 personal injury action of Victor Danielczuk | against Alfred Hansen. The plain- tiff clalmed damages for personal injuries sustained by being knocked down by the defendant’s automobile last New Year's eve on Robbins street in Newington. Judge Brown found that the accounts of both parties regarding the accident were contradictory, and although it was not disputed that the plaintiff was knocked down, the testimony show- | ed that the defendant was driving | slow, the night being exceptionally dark and foggy. | At the same time another car was | approaching from the opposite di- rection. As the cars were about to pass, it is alleged, the plaintiff dart- | ©d suddenly in front of the other | car and in the path of the Hansen | machine, the defendant being un- | able to meet with any emergency | as Danielczuk appeared only within | three or four feet of the defendant’s | car. The court was satisfled with thex testimony of the defandant and his wife, who was a passenger sat the time, while on the other hand| Judge Brown finds that the plain- | tiff’s testimony was not clear and vividly showed signs of contributory negligence, Attorney Albert A. firecnberg represented the defen- GIRL SCOUT NEWS « Florence Gibney, Elizabeth Dem- ! ing, Mary Michaels and Winifred Pratt of Troop 4, Berlin, will take their pioneering test tomorrow at Prentice’s grove.

C., Dec. 7.—*Cork, to which it is reported that one of America's agricultural tractor fac-| tories will be removed is the south- ern gateway of Ireland,” says a bulletin from the Washington, D. C. headquarters of the National Geo- graphic Society. “Cork lles at the head of the | Cove of Cork, almost due west of | London. Passenger boats from | England and Scotland and foreign cargo boats of shallow draft dock at the Cork quays, but transatlantic vessels can navigate the Cove only as far as Cobh, better known to Americans as Queenstown. The twelve-mile journey to Cork is made by river boat or by train. Five Railroads Enter City “The main portion of Cork occu- | pies an island with the main chan- | nel of the River Lee bordering it on the north, and the Southern Channel an arm of the Lee, form- |ing its southern boundary,” con- tinues the bulletin. “The hillsides on ‘the opposite sides of both of these streams are nearly as ?hlckly populated the island. “Cork has many visitors but lhey are usually destined to points out- side of the city. The marneyr Castle with its famous stone is a drawing card for southern Ireland and the country is dotted with old | castles, forts, numerous caves and quaint villages. Beautiful pano- ramas are frequent. The five rail- roads which enter the city touch or connect with other railroads that transverse practically every city and town on the island. “One of the most interesting ‘sights’ of Cork is the vehicle from which the ‘sights’ are seen. Auto- mobiles are available for touring but self on one of the typical Irish jaunting cars. Facing outward, and jogging horse, the driver traverses St. Patrick's Street, the Fifth thoroughfares. St. Patrick's street and the Grand Parade were quays when Cork was young and the island was mostly swamp land and water- important business district. American Coal Shipped There *“All is business on the lower end of the island where miles of quays are lined with cargo boats. Cases of butter, herds of cattle and pigs, land cargoes of flax, hemp and woolen goods await shipment to foreign ports while an American might see coal and iron from Ameri- | § can mines, and wheat and flour from American flelds and mills holsted out of the holds of American and | British freighters for Irish con- sumption. “The other end of the island is & parkway called the Mardyke walk, where ‘Corkers’ spend their leisure moments on shaded promenades in view of tree-clad banks of the Lee, dotted here and 6 there with | villas. The Marina, another one of the city's playgrounds, lies on the south side of the Southern Channel | § with a beautiful view of the river below Cork. Across the water are | where 8ir Walter Raleigh once lived and where trees planted by him still survive, Two Cathedrals Named for Founder “The Protestant and Catholic cathedrals, both bearing the name of the Saint Finne Barre, who founded Cork in the seventh cen- tury, and the University college, | also lie on the south side of Cork. | The latter is a handsome building of gray limestone in Tudor style. | A number of tropical plants adorn ! the university grounds. Although Cork lies in the same longitude as Labrador, its climate is tempered | by the Gulf Stream. “The north bank of the Lee fa dominated by the clock tower of , St. Ann’s, Shandon, which contains ' the eight bells made famous by Father Prout, the poet priest. The tower affords a splendid view of the city. At the foot of the tower the huge round roof of the butter market contrasts with the steep slate-roofed houses bordering the narrow lanelike streets leading to the river. The row after row of | roofs on the island beyond are fre- | quently plerced by the steeples of ' | churches, but dominating all of them is the 240-foot central tower of the Protestant cathedral, far in! the background.” JUNIOR LEAGUE OFFICERS At a meeting of the Polish Junior | league held last evening at the homs of Miss Regina Studzinskl in Hart- ' ford, Miss Cele Grangel of Hartford was elected president of the club; Helen Symolon, vice president: | s Helen Stempien, secretary, and | Miss Sophte Horoszczyk, treasurer. | Miss Marle Ostrowski was named | chairman of the welfare and social | -e and Miss Mae Mystkow- chairman of the publicity mittee, we have plenty of CASH, for the many holiday needs.

LEADERS NUDDLED ON FARN RELIEF Don’t Know Hoover's Ideas on McNary's Measure Washington, Dee. 7 P — Farm relief legislation, long in a state of uncertainty, finds itself muddle now by the absence ot the prel(dellt-elec( Herbert Hoover. One bill, thought to have adminis tration approval, has been intro duced by Chairman McNary of the senate agriculture committee, but even before it is out of the commit tee room, doubt has cast a shadow on its path. Republican leaders do not seem to know what Mr. Hoov- er’s ideas on this bill are and asking him may be a little difficult, since he is in South America, and a spokesman for him apparently has not been found. Nevertheless, leaders in congress opposed to an extra session next spring are believed to be thinking of asking Mr. Hoover to pass on thc McNary bill. They feel that with his approval the measure might be passed at the seventieth congress and a special session for tariff re- GOOD NEWS! | The Star Cleaning Co. — ANNOUNCES — THAT ADDED FACILITIES HAVE ENABLED US TO EXTEND TO THE NEW BRITAIN PUBLIC LOWER Plain Silk Dresses .....

Some congressional leaders un- derstand that if the McNary bill is passed at this session President Coolidge will leave the appointment of the farm board to Mr. Hoover. They believe the president feels that tle Hoover administration will be saddled with the responsiblity on farm relief that the president elect should be entrusted with laying the | ground work. Man Shoots Codfish . Noank, Dec, 7 (UP)—Observing a disturbance among some decoy ducks he had set out, Daniel Rob- ertson, well known village sports- man, blazed away with both barrels of his shotgun. To his surprise, he discovered he had bagged—not a duck—but a 30 pound codfish which had become entangled among the wooden ducks. He brought the shot-riddled fish | home to substantiate his story.
