Townsend, pastor of a local church. The action of the selectmen in voting not to provide a court- room was another step in a battle over Judge Haas that has raged for weeks. The board also voted not to hire a prosecutor. The Hampden county commis- sion, however, announced they would provide a court room if the selectmen balked.

Forms rose from behind tombstories and swept | over the fence to the road. These | were the braver ghost-hunters, | whose courage had failed them. The crowd vanished up the road, leaving the cause of the flash stand- ling by himself in the dark. It was a photographer. | Later, the crowd trickled back | cautiously.

'MILK THEFT AT DAWN - ENDS IN COURT FINES (Continued From First Page) | - | Officer Jones, in fact, all he would | admit was that he was on Farming- | \ | ton avenue, having walked in from | | Farmington. | Mrs. Kopec stuck to her story that | the two quarts of milk were bought at the corner of Broad and High streets, but not from the driver who was in court. She had been out picking mushrooms with her cousin, who lives in Hartford, and it was the cousin who gave her the duck which was in the burlap bag, she said. She denied having been out all night with Andrzecik, and she said Officer Jones was wrong when he claimed to have secn her steal the milk out of the | store entrance. Prosecuting Attorney Woods asked Judge Saxe to send Andrzecik to jail | for 30 days. *‘Anything that is evil, that's Andrzecik,” he said. “He has a long record and he could not tell the truth it he tried. He would tell a lle even if the truth sounded bet- ter. He should go to jail. He has been in this court many times, once for manslaughter when he pushed another man down and injured him fatally. As for the woman, she has been leading a double life for a long time with Andrzecik. She was out with him all night, despite the fact that she has a husband " | Judge Saxe said he had no sym- | pathy for either party, such as he has had in some theft cases. He warned Andrzecik to expect a jail sentence if he is ever convicted again. ST.

Two strokes away was a rugged pair who have tasted the sweets of an open cham- plonship—Johnny Farrell of New York and Tommy Armour, the “Black Scot” from Detroit— and an- other star from Brooklyn, “Wiffy” Cox. Then three shots away, but always dangerous, were Walter Ha- | gen and Johnny Golden of Darien, | | Conn. Bobby Loses Chance Bobby had a big chance to take | the lead in the second 18-hole round | vesterday, but Horton Smith and the treacherous 15th hole combined to wreck his fortunes. As Bobby came [to the 15th tee, he had beaten old yman par by one stroke. But there | the mischievous old gentleman stop- ped him cold. Bobby’s drive hooked to the deep rough and partially stymied him behind a spreading tree. He pitched out safely 50 yards short of the 408-yard green. Then his ap- proach was too strong, his pitch too timid and he collapsed by missing |a four-foot putt. The par-four hole |had cost him six strokes, pushed | him over par and ruined his tem- perament. He came back with a | birdie on .the next hole, but went | one over perfect figures on the short | 17th and ended with a par four and | |2 73 card for the round. It was a hard blow for Bobby, who had turn- {ed the first nine in a great 34, two strokes under par. He was peevish {as he came to the club house. Horton got his margin on the out- | ward journey yesterday. He stroked |all but two holes in par. On the sec- ond he ran down a birdie three and a¥ded a screaming cagle on the 485 | vard ninth, where he sank a long | putt. Like Jones and the rest of the | leaders, he was in constant trouble | coming home, but escaped with a | | 70, which tied Lacey for the best | |score of the day and equalled the | | best rounds turned in by MacDon- | ald Smith and Armour. | Cooper Does Well | | Cooper, back on his game after a | | vear's lapse, had the most consis- | | tent round of the day, going out in | |35 and coming in with 37. Mac| Smith and Armour cracked on the | back nine, largely because of poor | putting and hooked woods. Armour | scored 37-39 for a 76. while Mac | Smith bagged rounds of 37-38—75. | Lacey was the surprise. Overlook- | |e@ because of his 74 Thursday, he | sauntered in through the long | shadows of early evening and posted | |a startling 70. He came to the final | tee needing a par 4 for a 69, but his | | second shot went into the rough and | | blasted his hopes. | | Cox. who tied Bobby with a 71 at | |the énd of the first round, didn't get | |a break in his second. His putter re- |fused to work when eight-foot putts meant birdies, he hooked badly at | strategic spots and was forced to | accept a 75, three over par. Hagen's trouble with the yawning traps on the homeward nine was ex- | pensive. The “Haig" went out in | grand style with a 35, one under par, |and then took a bad 40 on the way back for a 75. He shot even par | Thursday. | | | | | 158 Does Duty | | It required a total of 156 strokes | ior better to enter the charmed | liftying circle permitted to play | | the final 36 holes today. Fifty-eight had 155 or better and there were | 11 tied at 156. Rules called for the | {low 60 and ties to contest the final | rounds. Among those who just got | |in were “Chick” Evans and Don K. { | Moe, youthful amateur from Port- |land, Oregon, and member of the | | American Walker Cup team. | JURY EXAMINES YOUNG MURDERER Boy, 15, Killed Father When| He Threatened Family Washington, July 12 (UP) — A i slender, 15 year old boy, Henry il’redcr\ck Alt, was taken before a | ! | | @ coroner's jury today to face an in- quest into the killing of his father, | John Alt, 55, a carpenter. | The boy stabbed his father in the | back with a carving knife yesterday | as the older man brandished a re- volver and threatened to kill Henry's | mother, The elder Alt had been | drinking heavily, friends of the | terror-stricken family said, and had driven his wife and daughter, Elsie, | to the home of a neighbor. | Alt, crazed by liquor and ill- i)\ealth, procured his revolver and | started to follow his wife and daugh- ter. The boy tried to stop him, but | Alt threw him aside and started out of the house. Henry then picked up | a carving knife and stabbed his | father as he ran to the neighbor's home. | Married Couple Must | Live Apart Two Years | Boston, Mass, July 12 (UP)— With a honeymoon ot little more than 24 hours, Harry Huntt, 58, wealthy proprietor of & chain of res- taurants, and his bride, the former Miss Marguerite E.

They will continue to do so for the | next two years, Huntt living with a sister in Waban, and the bride with | | her sister in Ashmont. | The bride declared that as Huntt's divorce, obtained by his first wife | last January, does not become final in this state until 1932, they must live apart.
