Louis Stempien, 63, was fatally injured yesterday afternoon near Peter Rosso's garage on Swamp soad, Kensington, when he was struck by a motorcycle driven by Lawrence Borg, 21, of 60 Common- wealth avenue, New Britain.

He was released on bondy of $500. It is claime that Stempien was walking along the road and turned 1o cross the street. About half way across, he turned and started back. Borg stated that he applied his trake but skidded and struck the man. There were no wilnesses to the accident, although there was heavy traffic on the road at the time of the accident. In a very few minutes cars had gathered at the place and traffic was held up by the purked machines. Ofticer Frank Brown investigated the accident and summoned Borg to Berlin town court. Upon learning of Stempien's death at the hospi- tal, he called the New Brituin police and they arrested Borg.

Meagley of Worthing- ton ridge. He is employed in the New York office of the Corbin Screw corporation of New Rritain. Road Conditions Improved Toad conditions in the town have been greatly improved by the work of the town tcams and by the weather conditions during the past week. The dry weather has given the workers a chance to work on the dirt roads to good advantage. In the early spring. it was necessary for the teams to go over the work sev- eral times, as the rains would wash the roads as fast as they were scrap- ed. Some of the time this spring has been spent on the hard roads of the town which were washed out by the rains and broken up by the frosts in the spring. East Berlin Leads Lea East Berlin Boy Scouts ..
