Proocton and Schoo Addition Before Yoters N0 MEETING DATE SET — Storm Causes Raliroad Underpass Blockade—Funeral of Mrs. Nelson —Kensington Triangles Schedule Practico—Eagagement Announced Two important issues will be vot- ed on at & special town meeting to be held in the near future for which no date has been set. The most im- portant is the question of the fire department that will have to be de- cided upon within two weeks as the contract with New Britain has been cancelled. It will be necessary to re- new the contract with New Britain at the city's terms or to finance a fire department in the town. . Under the terms offered by New Brit in, it will be necessary that the rate be doubled and that $100 an hour be paid for the time the fire appartus is in town. There will also be the necessity of raising the insur- ance of the trucks to $15,000 from $10,000. A new clause has been put into the contract, that the town of Rerlin must supply compensation in case of injury to ~the members of the department, while answering arms in Berlin. As this contract is the only alternative to furnishing a depart- ment in the town many of the voters feel that it is the wiser and cheaper thing to do. There has ‘been much talk of forming a separate depart- ment but the initial cost would be greater than many feel should be spent at this time. The school addition will also be voted upon. It is expected that plans will be completed following the June meeting of the school board and will be presented to the voters for final action. Many people feet that this should ‘have preference over the fire de- partment question as the pupils are said to be in a crowded condition due to the lack of space in the schools, according to the report of the school superintendent. ‘The school board is now working on a plan whereby an addition will be built to the present school in Ken- sington. ‘Kensington Triangies Practice The Kensington Triangles will practice at the Percival avenue grounds Wednesday evening at 6:30. All candidates for the team are ex- pected to report, as the arranging of echedules depends on the number who turn out for the team. Candi- dates expecting to play this year will report, or give reason for not re- porting to the manager of the team. At nuounce Engagement Mrs. C. M. Hamilton of School street, Berlin, tendered a bridge party on Saturday . afternoon at which the engagement of her sister, Miss Dorothy Trehy was announced. Miss Trehy. daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D. J. Trehy of Kensington, and Rudolph Swanson, son of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Swanson of Hilicrest avenue, New Rritain, will be mar- ried in the near future, according to the announcement. U Flooded State trucks and gangs answered the alarm yesterday afternoon that the underpass in Kensington was flooded and within a half an hour the road was closed by signs and men were directing traffic at the underpass. The water rose quickly and in a short time was threc or four feet deep. A few of the more courageous drivers, went through safely hut the majority did not at- tempt to brave the water. The road around the pass was thick with mud and few cars could go over it. Most of them went around through Maple hill. One driver attempted to go und!‘r‘ the bridge at a high rate of speed | and the car was almost hidden from sight by the sheet of water which was thrown over it, He had to he hauled out somewhat the wiser but with the loss of $5, which was the standard hauling price for the afier- noon. State cmployes maid that the con- dition could not be overcome until catch basins were put in the depot drive and also on the other side of the bridge. Stones and dirt piled up in the center as the water went down and trucks were at work this morning clearing it out. To Spend Summer Here William B.

The north part of Berlin was in darkness several hours early in the evening. Many residents heard that lightning struck in the town, but as far as could be learned today, this report was not true.

Durant, Bernhard Mattson and Rudolph Miller Claimed By Death—Dog Bites Boy—Captain Brannan Out of Hospital, In a trial which lasted an hour and which was marked by lengthy | |direct and cross examination, Henry | {J. Wellspeak was found guilty of perjury by Judge Joseph M. Dono- van in the city court today, and sen- | tenced to one month in jail. This| sentence was later suspended for one year by the court. Wellspeak was arrested on the night of May 11 by Sergeant Henry J. Jeglinski and Officer William Thompson on Prospect street after he had offered a drink of whiskey to Thomas Cassin, who was sitting in an automobile with Harry Fioril- lo. Sergeant Jeglinski, the first wit- ness called, testified that he was be- ing driven to his home by Officer Thompson on the night in question when he saw two men leave the Seri- cola block on Prospect street. Sus- pecting that they had been in the building to purchase liquor, he in- structed Thompson to pull up & short distance and stop with the in- tention of watching the place for a short time. According to Jeglin- £ki a short time later Fiorillo drove up with Cassin and Wellspeak in the car. Wellspeak alighted near the Sericola block and then crossed the strect. He remained standing there | a few seconds and when he saw ¥rank Sericola leaving the entrance across the street, he retraced his steps and entered the Sericola build- ing with FFrank. He came out a few minutes later, according to the ser- geant and recrossed the street, stop- ping at Fiorillo's car. The officer followed and took Wellspeak to headquarters, after he had seen him hand a bottle of liquor to Cassin. He was booked as a material witness and early the next day released un- | der hond of $500. | A search warrant was made out for Frank Sericola and he was ar rested just as he was leaving his apartment building. In court last | Monday morning, Sericola was found but a continuance was granted until this morning to prove the charge of reputation. This the state was un- |able to do for the reason that the complainants were unwilling to un- dergo the notoriety which would | necessarily result from their appear- ance in court. Sericola's case, how- | |ever. was continued for three months by Judge Joseph M. Dono- {van, who informed Sericola that in the cvent other complaints of repu- tation were made with a subsequent |arrest, the case of today would be reopened. | Officer William Thompson, the [sccond witness called, testificd along | the same lines as his superior officer. | Both men were given a severe cross ' examination by Judge 8. Russell | [ Mink, counsel for Wellspeak on the perjury charge but both stuck stead fastly to their stories. i Harry Fiorillo was the only wit- | ness called by the defense. He stated that Wellspcak was not in his car when he drove over Prospect street but that he met him some time after he had stopped his car on the north side of Prospect street. Wellspeak was first noticed by Cassin, who called the former over to the car. | Although he was questioned at length by Prosccuting Attorney An- thony J. Rich. Fiorillo stuck to his story. He stated that he had never drunk intoxicating liquor and did | not take any from Wellspeak on the | night in question Judge Joscph M. Donovan { nouncing his finding of guil that Iiorillo’s story struck hin heing perfectly true hut he could not reconcile the fact that the officers could be mistaken in seeing Well- peak alight from some car. The ac- cused had contended all along that he walked up Prospect street but had never entered the Sericola block. The court helieved that Well- speak might have alighted from same car other than Fiorillo's but | he felt sure that Wellspeak did ride rather than walk. The case this morning attracted | wide attention and the court room ! was crowded when the case was call- ed. in an- stated | 1 as| | Fred 1. ¥red Emory Durant, Durant 6. of Terry- 122 105 351 204 29— 303 410—1230 Gerke . 95 McGibbon ... §3 J.
