Plainville News ANTHONY SANTUCC RUNDOWN BY AUTO Police Make Search for Motorist Who Failed to-Stop INSPECTING BACK YARDS Dr. Cook Wants Action by Sclect- men—No Firemen Have Resigned | ~—High School Loses—Church No- tices—Well Child Confercnce. A state-wide search was being made today for the hit-and-run mo- torist who failed to halt his car end accept responsibility after his ma- chine had run down and badly in- jured Anthony Santucei of 3 South| avenue on Whiting street about 9 o'clock last night. Santucci was taken to the New Rritain General hospital this morning. suffering from a broken arm, broken shoulder and fractured ribs, and a questionable fractured skull. Santucci was walking home, carry- ing a bag of apples, and was off the pavement when hit. The offending car, which Dbore a Massachusetts license, came up from Southington behind him and struck him in the back, hurling him into the gutter. | At the time that it hit him, it is es- timated, the automobile was about three feet off the pavement. The driver stopped his car for a moment and hailed another auto ap- proaching from the south. He told the operator of this machine that “an old man had been hit” but did not assume the responsibility him- sclf. Saying that he was going to the center to get an officer, he then jumped in his car and drove off. The other driver was suspicious and fol- lowed him, but the Massachusetts driver. when he realized he was be- ing followed, dashed off toward Bris- tol. The pursuing driver. however, read the number on the registration plates, and this was also noted by & woman living near the scene of the accident. Both persons game the same numbcf—Massachusetts 235 361. Santucci was carried into his home and Dr. George F. Cook was |summoned. The shock of the acci- dent had made his condition such \that it was decmed inadvisable to remove him again, 50 he was allow- ed to remain at home during the night and was given treatment for hock. Early this morning he was taken to the hospital. His condition in serious. Santuccl is about 65 years old. Constables George Schubert and T {3, Wadsworth investiggted the acci- {dent and learncd the registration {number of the Massachusetts car. {Schubert then called the police of the towns along the main highways leading to the Bay State and also had the figures sent out to police all over the state on the ticker system {of the Rristol and New Britain po- Ilice, but the car was not apprehend- |ed. The local constable was contin- ning his search today, and if he did |not locate his man.in this vicinity, he planned to take the case up with the Massachusetts authorities. To Inspect Rack Yards Dr. George I. Cook, health officer, announced today that he would in- epect the yards behind the West Main street blocks where conditions | were such that the residents had complained to the Chamber of Com- meree. Planning to begin his invest- ixation today, the doctor expressed himself as “sick and tired” of the continual recurrence of such com- plaints and hoped some way might be found 1o keep the back yards free of refuse once and for all. He said that he would confer with the fire commissioners on the matter and would report to the sclectmen, who, in his opinion, should be the ones to take action against the offenders. Dr. Cook stated his belief that the way to get rld of the firc menace in the dump was to set it afire and {burn it, with the firemen watching {to protect property, although he ad- mitted that the fire might penetrate iceply into the dump and cause a |hazard by smouldering there for weeks. His alternative plan s to cover the refuse with fresh sand or other soil and keep the surface free of future deposits of rubbish. No Firemen's Resignations No firemen have tendered (heir resignations, Chief Idward P. Prior ihias stated in contradicting a rumor that a number of the fire company {members, irked by the refusal of |[the selee en to oust Fire Commis- | sioner James R. Boswell. had made good their threat by withdrawing from the company. While nothing has been announced for publication and while many of the firemen are wondering just what will be done now that their petition has bheen re- will be taken until the nest regular meeting of the fire compan will be held in March.

A special necting of the voters has been called tor Wednes- day evcning, February 13, when the building committee, appointed sev- eral nionths ago, will report on the proposed acquisition of & site for a school. Ir the cvent the commit- tee’s recommendations are aceepted, | it is probable that work on the new building will be started in the spring 80 that it will be rcady for occu. pancy at the opening of the fi term. The sixth district schoolhouse on Stafford avenue haa been the scene | of many bitter contests during the past few years between two factions, | one headed by Alfred H. Tallis and ! the other by Howard Dutton lmd‘ Ashley Bishop. Bishop moved from the district several months ago but the spirit of cooperation is still lacking and a recurrence of hostili- ties is anticipated at the mecting next Wednesday. The trouble orginally started when Tallis endeavored to secure an accounting of the receipta of public | dances in the school sponsored \r)'; Dutton and Bishop. After several months' effort. an auditing commit- tee was appointed but no report has cver been made by that committee | at a meeting of the voters. The Stafford scction has grown rapidly during the past two years and school officials believe that ad- ditional facilities will be required when the fall term opens. It has been suggested that a new school be erected west of Mine Brook and a site in that loeation may be recom- mended by the building committee at the special meeting. Gustave A.
