P. GETS MOST VOTERS Public Invited to Attend Hearing To- night At Town Hall — G. O. P. Town Committee Appoints Three New Members.—Briefs. Claiming that it is Kensington's turn to provide the Berlin represen- tative in the general assembly, friends of John McCabe of Grove Hill, Kensington, are seeking to oh- tain his permission to let them bring his name before the coming repub- lican caucus to name a candidate to succeed R. O. Clark of East Berlin, who is retiring from the assembly after serving one term. Pardon C. Rickey and Mrs. Henry Hooker are already in the field for the nomination and it now appears that there will be three from whom to choose on the night of the cau- cus. Mr. McCabe has not yet given his consent to the placing of his name in nomination, but his backers have visited him several times and expect that he will yield to thelr ‘wishes. Mr. McCabe is a lifelong resident | of Kensington and at the present time is paymaster at the American Paper Goods Co. He has never held any offtice, but his friends state that he has aided several others and they now feel that it is time for his own ability to be recognized. They also believe that the district of Kensing- ton should provide the assemblyman this year, as Berlin and East Berlin have had their turns. G. O. P. Gets Most Voters But 97 of the total of 185 persons who recently filed their names with the registrars of voters appeared Saturday to qualify for the right of franchise. The sclectraen and town clerke were in session throughout the entirn day from 9 e'clock in the morring until 8 o'clock at night. Of this numbper 71 (xpressed the desire to be placed on the republi- can primary list while 16 registered their pames as democrate and 10 de- cided to withhold their names from the lists of either party. Thie new list of ¢7 voters will in- crease the votinz list in Berlin soniewhat over the 2,000 mark. The number mace did not reach the expectations of the selectmen. Many thought that {he number of “made” voters would pass the 150 mark.

Kensington Wins Again Emerging at the end of nine in- nings on the long end of a 3 to 1 scors in a game played yesterday afternoon at the Pércival avenue grounds against the fast going Len- ox A. C. of Wallingford, the Ken- singtén A. C. maintained its long winning streak, yesterday's win making a record of 17 stralght vie- tories. The game was played as the first of a three-game series between the two teams and brought out a fairly large gathering of baseball fans who | were more than pleaséd with the showing of the locals. The game was marred by the fact that one of the boys on the Walling- | ford team was seriously injured while cn route to the park when the auto in which he was riding collided with a large New England Trans- portation company bus just below the Berlin town line. The youth suffered a fractured skull and other cranial injuries that caused the Meriden hospital author- ities to place )3 name on the criti- cal list at that institution. Two other youths who were rid- ing with him at the timo escaped serious injury. Drum Corps Rehearsal The regular weekly meeting and rehearsal of St. Paul's fife and drum corps will be held tonight at 7:30 in Tab's hall in Kensington. Following tho rehearsal the rec- ommendations of the committee in charge of the annual whist and card party will report its progress to the organization. 1t is understood that the corps plans to run this affair some time about the first of next month Has Exceptional Hollyhocks When the story of the unusual height of hollyhocks raised in the garden of Mrs. H. H. Raymond of Hudson street appeared a short time ago, it was thought that the record was broken. The Raymond blooms soared to a height of 12 feet, 3 inches, a truly unusual height for hollyhocks, whose average height Is but 6 to § feet. Evidently desiring to o one bet- ter, Edward J. Stevens encouraged some 20 plants in his garden on High road, Fewsington, until some soared into the air over 14 feet, thus breaking all known records. His lowest blooms are about 13 feet tall. Mr, Stevens' hollyhocks have tak- en on the aspect of the proverbial Jack's beanstalk and, were the sum- mer season not at an end, consider- able wonderment might be express- ed as to just what height they would | reach. New Temporary Pastor Beginning next Sunday the pulpit at the Kensington Congregational church, made vacant by the resigna- tion of Rev. Vernon L. Phillips, will be filled temporarily by Rev.

Plainville News TOWN VOTING LIST SHONS 2,300 NAMES Approximately 1,000 Women Have Yoting Franchise ANALYSIS OF High School Football Team Swamp- ed in Opening Battle—Annual Meeting of Grange Auxiliary To- morrow—Items. Approximately 2,300 residents of Plainville are entitled to cast bal- lots in the annual town election {o be held on October 6. This is a gain of nearly 100 over last year.

Inciden- tally last year's vote was the light. est in the history of the town. The state election is also ex- pected to bring out a large vote. Those desiring to vote in the state election and who have not yet been made voters are advised to get their names into the registrars of voters hands at once. added to the voting list by the board of selectmen and registrars. Last year only 37 new voters were made giving evidence that the town | election is causing more interest | this year. ot 38 expressed their desire to be put on the republican caucus list while | 25 registered as democrats. Twenty- ference. There were no names that had to be refused, as is often the case. There were 128 nams on the “to be made” list. Analysis of Budget An analytis of the budget of ex- penditures for the town of Plain- ville for the year ending August 15, 1031, as approved by the board of finance, has been prepared and was releaged for publication in part to- day. Stanley 8. Gwillim, chairman of the board, feels that the taxpay- ets will be greatly interested in an analysis and that it should convey much valuable information to them. An analysis of the selectmen’s budget is being printed tonight, | while the school budget analysis | will appear in the Herald tomorrow evening. The selectmen’s budget, gross, fs $111,190. Less estimated credits for the year amounting to $11,250, the net budget is $99,940. In the selectmen's budget, the fol- lowing items are what might be termed “fixed items,” in other words. they cannot very well be changed unless the town wants to do without a police department, a fire depart- ment, street lights, fire hydrants, etc.: Lights . 2 Police account .

Depreclation fire apparatus Library account Fire hydrants o Indurance (including com- pensation) Interest on notes . | Two elections b Depreciation on road equip- ment . v van { Bonds becoming due . Interest, outstanding honds Heating plant (Broad street school) . | Interest on money horowed to pay for heating plant (Broad streét school). o $63,490 In addition to these ftems, the county, military and state taxes that the town has to pay have heen es- titaated at $7,000 and may run more than this. This makes a total of 370,490 in what may be termed fixed expenses, This leaves the following items that are not strictly fixcd expenses. I'irgt an appropriation -f 4300 for the playground at ths Droad Street school. This venture is one which it is believed that the town should take over for the bencfit of the chil- dren during the summer season. The Plainville Graded School asso- clation has carrled this expense for | several years and now asks the town to assume it. A second item is the appropriation | of $1.000 for the town court. It is | estimated that the receipts from the | court amount to $800, t*iereby mak- ih.g & net expense of $200.

Depend- ing on the kind of weather the town has ,this appropriation will be spent {1 part or in whole or perhaps not |at all. If the town has a bad win- ter, it will all be spent. The next item is the appropria- | tion of $1,000 f>c parks. IL kas Leen cut from $2,000 11 last 5 | Ludget. The town loard of finance Lelieves that the town should ap- rropriate this money as it provides vork for local people during tais viemployment period. Another ftem is an appropriation of $200 for dogs with an estimated | return of $800 which snows a cradit (o the town, Another important jtem is the ap- propriation of $4,600 for the mi cellaneous account. This includes an $800 contribution to the Pluin- ville Public Health Nu-ses' asso |tion; 8750 for town attorney fceo $125 for military enroliment; $150 for Armistice Day and Memorial | Day, and other incidential expenses covering items that cannot be arated in the budget, all of which are approved by tlhe selectmen to be paid. This includes such items as the cost of establishing builaing and sidewalk lincs, cost of recordni: vital statistics and llens by the town clerk, cost of filing liens by the tax crilector, odd jobs on town property, and so on. The appropriation for the town plan commission is $600. This is a | fixed item if the taxpayers are going | to have the town plan commission | go forward with its work of estab- lishing street and building lines. The tree warden appropriation is $200. This is an estimate of what it | may cost the town to take care of trees on the highways during the year. Salaries, including those of tax collector, assessors and clerk, board of relief, health officer, three select- men, town clerk, town treasurer, and clerk for selectmen and town | clerks, call for an appropriation of $7,900. This is an item that cannot | very well be changed unless there is an arbritary reduction in salarie paid these various town officials, | which the town board of finance | does not advise, as it believes that the town officials are not overpaid | for what they are doing. | The appropriation for the town building 18 $1400. This covers cost | of maintaining the town building, | including fuel, janitor service, light, | repairs, and other incidental ex- penses in connection with maintain- ing the town hall. { For sidewalks $1000 has been ap- propriated. This has been cut from | $1500 in last year's budget. The| committes of the Chamber of Com- merce handling the building of side- | walks has already made contracts | | that will use up approximately all | of this appropriation and could have | used another $1000 this vear if the | finance board had geen fit to add it| to the budget. This expenditure is) |for tmprovements, principally on| | streets that the children use in go- | ing to school. | The poor account appropriation )\u $4,500. Owling to the present bus- iness conditions, it is more than | probable that this will be fully used | and perhaps exceeded as during the past year nearly this amount was spent for poor who are an obligation on the town that cannot be avoided. | | The printing account appropria- | tion is $1,000. This covers the cost of printing the town report and the printing of various records that are used by the town officers, board of | assessors, town clerk, judge of pro- bate, and so on, and it is considered | not too high an amount based on what it has cost the téewn for the past scveral years under the ac- connt. The only other item left on the budget is the highest item outside of bonds and interest on bonds, namely, highways. This item was cut from $21.000 in last year's budget to $16,000 in this year's and | the finance board believes that it should stay at this amount if the town is going to have the proper cere taken of its roads. If they are not properly taken care of each year the expense is likely to in- crease, for the roads that are let go for a longer period than they should ba cost much more to put into good | shape again than if they are kept | in fairly good shape from year to| year. H. S. Footballers Tose Playing with all the fight that it| possessed, Plainville high school's | football team went down to a gallant | 38 to 6 defeat at the hands of the heavier and more experienced Bris- | tol high eleven Saturday at the Bell City teams' field. The locals threat- cned to cross Bristol's goal line on ntimerous occasions but bad breaks defeated their cause. Full details of the game may be found in the Bris- tol column.

Confuesion Explained by Ryan Because of the fact that many lo- cal residents have complained of the permission of dogs to roam about the streets of the city during the quarantine, Dog Warden Joseph E. Ryan has {ssued an explanation which is expected to suffice to clear up confusion over the regulations provided in the ban which became effective last Friday. He explains that animals immunized with serum against rables, the guarantee -of which i8 contained in a tag attached to all inoculated canines, may be casily detected. Only dogs bearing the little white tags may venture into the streets. All others must be kept leashed until the ban is lifted by the state board on domestic animals. Dog Warden Ryan issued many warnings over the week-end to dog owners to keep their pets tied up or Auffer the fine of “not more than $100,” as provided by law. This week he says, the owners of all loose dogs will be arrested and arraigned be- fore the prosecuting attorney at po- lice headquarters.
