BERLIN RESIGNS POSITION Browt ¥, Midrum I Tir (o " uit Schoo Buand Ernest W. Mildrum, a member of the Berlin school board, has re- signed from that board, it was learned today. His resignation came as a surprise to the people of the town, as it was not known that he had contemplated any such action. Mr, Mildrum today had no atate- ment to make regarding his resig- natien and said he had maintained very pleasant connections with the board. 1t is not known who will be elect- ed to fill his place. Oscar Benson stated today that he would consider being nominated for the vacancy, although no official action has been taken on the matter. Mr. Mildrum's resignation is the third to be accepted by the board since the town meeting at which the proposed new $130,000 school was voted down by the citizens of the town, Robert Graham of Berlin handed in his resignation on the day following, stating at that time that he was not satisfied with the man- ner in which the voting was con- ducted. He said that there were many people who were unable to vote due to the size of the crowd at the meeting. Philip Fagan followed suit shortly after for apparently the same reason. WILSON HECKLED IN BALTINORE DEBATE (Continued from First Page) contributed toward national prosper- ity, eliminated the saloon, cleaned up politics and attracted to public life a higher type of politician. “I have never smelled liquor on the breath of a congressman since prehibition.” he said. Another roar greeled this remark and Wilson pleaded for a fair hearing. “The reason Dr. Wilson has never smelled liquor on a congressman is because he has an off-track nose,” said Darrow in answer to the state- ment, Darrow's Sarcasm Pleading his side of the question ‘with characteristic sarcasm, Darrow repeatedly referred to the Wilson's Washington headquarters as the *Methodist Vatican,” called Presi- dent Hoover “that great civil en- gineer,” and Senator Jones of Wash- ington, author of the Jones law “the five und ten cent senator.” “Frohibition is an unmitigated humbug,” he shouted, "and these pronibitionists are plain, dishonest hypocrites.

BRING YOUR PANAMA HAT HERE! NEW BRITAIN DAIRALD, UESDAY, MAY Named to Annapolis, West Gotham Socieeats to Old Casino to Revive Fading Glory New York, May 14 (UP)—New York's “four hundred” has retreat- cd to Central Park where it will barricade itself in the historic old Casino and attempt to conjure the glory that Delmonico’s and the gran- deur that was the Waldorf. One by one the landmarks of Ward McAllister's time have been sent down the chutes to the wreck- er's by progress and prohibition. Delmonico's is only a mellow mem- ory; even now they are laying sledge and hammer to the Waldorf to make way for a higher, bigger building With the passing of the Waldorf, society leaders had no place to go cxcept home, and so Anthony J. Drexel Biddle, Jr., took it upon him- glf to find a new gathering place. +The Casino. which had fallen on evil ways after enjoying a flight of popu- vy in the nineties, was chosen and the word went around that the finest restaurant in the world was to be built overlooking one of the most beautiful sites in Central Park. So- ciety hecame interested so much that it even got out its checkbooks and in less time than it takes to type it there was $500,000 subscribed and a syndicate organized. Joseph Urban was lured away from designing scencry for the Ziegfeld Follies to take charge of the redecoration, and after a careful study of the structure he announced the following layout: The New Interior A hlack glass ballroom; a knotted ness man can take his bacon and cges after a ride along the bridle paths; an orange terrace that will slant down to the copse of trees planted by the Prince of Wales, later {King Edward VIIL on a visit to this country; a glass-inclosed breakfast room that will be in line with the rising sun; a tulip pavilion ard a sil- ver conservatory. The sound of hammer and will startle many a ghost in the old Casino, for will not be the first time that society has idled away its days in that building. Back in the nineties, when the young bloods pinched clasps around their peg-top trousers and pedalled their bicycles through Central Park, you hadn't been anywhere at all unless you dropped into the Casino for tea or perhaps a glass of the forgotten bev- erage that they topped off with a spring of mint. The famous Michaux club, members of which made the bicycle famous, had its headquarters at the Casino. geesy and ditions leading up to chronic dyspepsia. lieves indigestion, sour stomach and lessness caused by g acids.
