Buy Tintes Color Re- Man Changing TireKnocked Down by Speeding Hit and Run Driver Harry Bowler Taken to Hospital for Injuries— Three in Police Court for Week-End Offenses. Six adults and two children were injured in automobile accidents in New Britain over the week-end. Three drivers were in police court today for violations of the motor ve- hicle laws, and one, whose identity was not learned, may never be ap- prehended as nobody caught the registration number of his car as it sped away. Harry Bowler, about 40, of 164 West street was the victim of this driver. He was changing a tire on his car in front of the City Service sta- tion on Hartford avenue about 10 o'clock last night and the offending car was going in a southerly direc- tion at a rapid rate of speed, ac- cording to Mrs. Bowler, who was in her husband's car. Bowler was struck in the back and knocked down, sustaining injuries to his back and head. Mrs. Bowler stopped a passing car driven by James J. Lynch of 403 Preston street, Hartford, and he drove her husband to New Britain General hos- pital. Officer Louis E. Harper was detail- ed to investigate by Lieutenant Sam- uel Bamforth but he was unable to obtain a clue as Mrs. Bowler could only tell him that the speeding car was a shiny sedan, and there were no other witnesses. Three Cars in Crash At about the same time, a triple collision occurred on Stanley street near Lyle road resulting in injuries 98 Q2P — from the New NAsH TWIN IGNITION Motor to Mrs. Abel A. Gross of Highland Terrace and Mrs. Louis Pollak of 108 West street, and the arrest of Steve Marhefka, 37, of 19 Belden street, Hartford, on the charge of reckless driving to which he pleaded guilt police court today and was fined $25 and costs. Marhefka was driving towards Hartford and suddenly lost control of the driving wheel, he told Officer Thomas Blanchette, and as he swerved to the left his car struck a roadster owned and driven by George R. Nixon of 309 Albany ave- nue, Hartford, in the opposite direc- tion, A third car, owned by the Beloin Motor Sales of Church street and driven by Pollak was nearby and the driver could not stop soon enough to avoid the wreck. This car went between Marhefka's car and a stone wall at the roadside, damaging the front fenders and bumper. Nixon's car sustained damage aboug the left front fender and tronf axle. Two tires were flattened. Marhefka's car was damaged about the headlight, front wheel and fend- er, Mrs. Pollak and Mrs. Gross are under medical care. Walk Against Automobile About 10:25 Saturday night, an automobile owned and driven by Paul R. Vogelgesang of 580 East Main street struck Alex Kazuliwicz, 38, of 806 Stanley street, and Martin Zielinsxi, 45, of the same address, on East Main street. Officer James Sullivan and Daniel J. Cosgrove re- ported that both men had been drinking and apparently had walked into the path of the automobile, which was going east on East Main street at a slow rate of speed. Dr. Vincent Mendillo examined the men and found them practically un- hurt. They refused to go to the EAKING NEW NASH ERE’S one sure way to make your motor- ing more delightful in 1929—drive a Nash “400”, the car with the Twin-Ignition Motor! More power . . . greater, smoother speed . . ; remarkable economy of operation—these are new advantages now offered by Nash Twin- Ignition performance. In the development of this remarkable new motor, Nash has combined three great prin- ciples of motor design—ruin-ignition, bigh compression, and velve-in-bead. In the air, this type of motor is winning the p N, —Photos by Arcade Studio hospital, although Kazuliwicz com- plained of his arm and his compan- ion said his leg hurt him.

Man 60, Knocked Down John Urso of 495 Myrtle strect was driving a sedaa owned by Sebastian Urso of the same address about 9 o’clock last night west on Broad street at the approximate rate of 15 or 18 miles an hour, and Joseph Balicki, 60, of 350 Washington street was crossing the street at the inter- section of Grove street. Urso swung to the left and struck him with the right front mudguard, knocking him down. honors. A twin-ignition, high compression, valve-in-bead motor carried Lindbergh to Paris, Byrd over the Pole, Goebel to Hawaii. Now, for the first time, Nash makes this more efficient, more economical motor de- sign available to every motorist. Ask your nearest Nash dealer to give you a Nush “400” to drive. Discover for yourself what the Twin-Ignition motor will do. Com- pare what we say about the car, with what the car says to yox. You will find that, although we make strong statements about the Nash “400,” zhe facts are even stronger!

Bauer, Instructor of Na- tionalist Army, Smallpox Victim Shanghai, May 6 (®—Coloncl Max Bauer, German military advis- er to the Chinese government and former right hand man of General Erich Ludendorff during the World War, died today of smallpox. Death came to Colonel Bauer when he had just concluded a mili- tary campaign in Central China which began with all the odds against him and ended in compleic and decisive victory, Bringing together the incohesive elements of the nationalist army he effectively routed strong opposition of the Wuhan City clique and in s short campaign drove the conspira- tors from Hankow and Wuchang far up the Yangtse Kiang, where loyal Szechuanesec cut their army to pleces. Colonel Bauer was about 60 years old.

He was entrusted with execution of the so-called Von Hindenburg program of Ludendorft which was promulgated when Von Hindenburg himself became chief of staff on August 29, 1916. Bauer worked in- defatigably at his task, refusing to become discouraged when others thought it hopeless. Both he and Ludendorff became bitter enemies of the republic at the end of the war and in 1920 he completely discredited himself when he joined the so-called “Kapp Putsch” or uprising to overthrow the republican government. In the collapse of the movement he escap- ed to Budapest, He returned to Germany in 1925 under terms of President Von Hin- denburg’s political amnesty but liv- ed in seclusion until announcement was made of his appointment as head instructor of infantry in the Chinese nationalist army, a post which he turned into one of great influence in nationalist military af- fairs. Although his nominal rank would not have indicated as much few ever doubted he was the real “brains” of the war of last month on the Wuhan opposition to the Nanking government and that the victory credited to General Chiang Kal- 8Shek was in reality of his planning Nobile Rescuer !

At Winnipeg, Keith, a pilot for only a month, made an expert land- ing, managing to taxi on one wheel, until he could place the other wheel lightly or the ground, bringing the plane to a safe stop.
