FRANKLIN SQUARE BATILE RENEWED Ondinance Restricting Gas Sa- tions Back to. Common Council Taking'e somewhat different form, but invelving exactly the same prin- ciples, the Franklin Square ‘uollne filling station dispute has been re- turned to the common council, this time to.be decided on the general suling as to whethgr the present or- dinance restricing this type of bullding out of industria] areas should be changed or be allowed to stand. Attorney Donald Gaffney for the change at last night ing of the bLoard of adjustment. It ‘was pointed out that the zoning or- dinances originally included his plan and it has been claimed that the change was effected to prevent the Standard Oil Co. from building a sta- tion at the corner of Kranklin Square and Pearl streets. Churches in Opposition An_effort to bring about adjust- ment board action which would per- mit a gasoline filling station to be established at that corner brought united opposition from property owners and the parishioners of near- by churches, and the petition was denied. Some time later, the zone was changed to forestall another at- tempt but it was found that the new zone permits lunch wagons. John J. Dillon of Waterbury leased the property and took a permit for such a wagon. but since it was a conditional grant, he hesitated to go to expense and face the possibility of being legislated out of business by Iater ordinances. He has abandoned his plan and now asks return of his permit. fee. The ordinance change voted last night came to the common council two months ago and was referred to the board of adjustment for action. It was laid over at a previous meet- irg, and last night was approved with little discussion. 1f the common council accepts the recommendation of the board of ad- Justment, the building inspector will be compelled to give a permit.

New York, May 9 (UP)—Another name has been added to baseball’s list of mound heros—that of Carl Hubbell, slender left hander of hardly a year's experience in the major leagues, who yesterday pitch- ed a no hit, no run game against the Pittsburgh Pirates.

He walked Adams, He is the first major league pitcher to accomplish the feat since Aug. 2, 1926, when Ted Lyons of the Chicago White Sox held the Boston Red Sox hitless. Dazzy Vance, who held the Phil- lles hitless on Sept. 13, 1925, was the last National leaguer to turn the trick. The Phils scored one run in that game. Hubbell is 25 years old and was thorn at Carthage, Okla. His pres- ent home is Meeker, in the same state. He stands six feect tall and weighs 170 ppunds. He came to the Giants from Beaumont of the Texas league.
