Superintendent James H. Towers today completed 25 years in the office of superinten- dent of the water department, a po- sition he took over upon the death of Wright A. Harris, who had been superintendent for a number of years. Mr. Tower's tenure of office has been marked by important develop- ments in the water main system. Lines have been carried into all sec- tions of the city, following the ex- pansion of the community, and nu- merous hydrants have been placed. Supt. Towers has seen great d opmentsin the sourcesof the city's water supply and improvements in the impounding of waters. His work has been mainly in the supervision of distribution here rather than in the developing and storing of the service, however. Because of the nature of his work, the superintendent is frequently seen about his duties in the late hours of the evening and in the early morn- ing hours, being subject to call whenever trouble develops in the mains or breaks occur. ‘Arrange July 4 Outing At Orphanage Grounds The general committee of the Sa. ered Heart church, in charge of the Polish Orphans’ fund, met last night at the rectory hall.

All Employes of Airport LEG[ON BEHIND AVIAT[ON STATE PROGRAM PREPARED Offer Blood to Aviatrix Roosevelt Field, N. Y. Jun: 28 (M—In the face of tragedy, the spirit of aviation revealed it- self today as a spirit of which all humanity might well be proud. 3 On an endurance flight, Viola Gentry and Jack Ashcraft plung- ed to earth. Ashcraft was killed and Miss Gentry critically injur- ed, hospiial physicians discover- ing she was bleeding internally. A message was sent from the hospital to the flying fleld that the woman pilot needed new blood. Who would volunteer? And as one man the flying and ground stafls stepped forward. Pilots whose names pre ofien in the papers, office executives and their clerks, grimy *‘grease balls™ who oil and tend the engines, not a man on the field but begged for the chance to help Miss Gentry.

FLIERS GRODM SHIP FOR HOP TO ROME Pathtinder fo Go Up Today for Test—Aviators Confident The | Scarboro, Me., June 28 (UP)—1 green, silver-winged monoplane, Pathfinder, in which Roger Q. Wil- liams and Lewis A. Yancey, veteran American airmen, hope to fly 4,800 miles to Rome, was to be taken aloft for a trial spin today. Tomorrow or early next week, the three-ton craft, formerly the North Star, is expected to be flown to Old Orchard Beach, 12 milés from here, with the weather the deciding factor as to the date of the hop-off. Forgetting their disappointment over the cracking up of the Green Flash earlier this month when they made a false start, the fliers express- ed confidence today that in their new venture they would escape the jinx that trailed them previously. “This ship is in better condition than the Ilash was,” Yancey said. “True, it is a sister ship, but it's less weather-worn and we think it'll prove a bit speedier.” Yancey added that before Pathfinder took off he intended to make “darn good search to see that | no stowaway is aboard.” The Pathfinder is a Bellanca cabin monoplane, powered with a 200- horse-power Wright whirlwind mo- tor. It has a maximum speed of ap- proximately 115 miles per hout and a cruising speed of 85 miles an hour. | It can carry 500 gallons of fuel. the | (FARMINGTON MAY DROP PROSECUTION OF SCHMIDT Garbage to Which Objection Was | Filed Being Cleaned Up, Markham Says The town of Farmington may | abandon its plans for prosecution of Louis Schmidt, local garbage col- lector, Judge Daniel A. Markham, Hartford county health officer made known today. It was explained that the accumulations of garbage which have caused Farmington residents annoyance are being cleaned up and for this reason no prosecution may | be brought. Since complaint was first made to the county health official, Schmidt has insisted that no garbage collect- ed here has been taken into the town of Farmington, and a survey made by Dr. Richard W. Pullen, superin- tendent of health, convinced him that this is true. Judge Markham's declaration does not say definitely that prosecution will not be brought. a fact indicating a belief that the | town can furnish proof of violation of the statute which prohibits carry- ing of garbage from one town into another. NEW BRITAIN DAILY HERALD. FRIDAY, JUNE 28, 1929. Activities of Posts to Be Co-ordinated in Con- structive Program—Ma- jor Ladd Adviser. Aviation activity among posts of the American Legion in this state, will hold an important place in the program for the year. This deci partment committee called by Com- mander Paige Seaton and held at the Hotel Heublein in Hartford this week. The department committee will work to coordinate all the ac- tivities of the individual posts under a supervised and constructive pro- gram of work through department channels. Major W. . Ladd, one of the fore- most figures in aeronautics in Con- necticut, has consented to act as technical adviser to the Legion and efforts will be started immediately to have every city and town in the state equipped with suitable mark- | ings on the roofs of prominent build- ings as a guide to air traffic. This is most important in the small vil- lages and hamlets, according to Ma- jor Ladd, because the larger cities are easily recognized from the air. Governor John H. Trumbull, known throughout the country as the “flying governor” has accepted the position of honorary chairman of the statewide committee. Senator Blanchard Rand is the cxecutive chairman while John Sibley will act | as secretary. The other members of the com- mittee selected from the various dis- tricts in the state, are as follows: First district—DPast Commander Kenneth . Cramer, Whethersficld; James FE. Breslin, Hartford.
