SEASON IS BEGUN BY MUSIGAL CLUB 50 Members Meet at Home of Miss Phelps in Plainville An even 50 members of the New Britain Musical club met at the Plainville home of Miss Lois Phelps last night for the first house meet- in3 of the season. President Herbert Woods observed that the member- ship of the club had grown to such proportions that it threatened to be- come a problem for the club to find homes large enough to accommodate ths members, but that a committee appointed to grapple with this prob- lem had decided that for this sea- —_— —Photo by Arcade Studio MI1SS ROSEMARY RILEY son, at least, the present system of house meetings would be continued. The musical program consisted of a group of two piano compositions playeds ' by Miss Phelps and Mrs. Howard Smith, also of Plainville. These were Le Matin and Le Soir, by Chaminade, and the Arensy Waltz. The performers received | hearty applause. Miss Rosemary winner of the local followed in a group of songs. was accompanied at the piano by | Miss Margaret Traver. The selec- | tions were the Flower Song from | Gounod's “Faust,” and two songs by | ‘Woodward.

Erroll Boyd and Licutenant Harry Connor have abandoned their plan of making a return flight to Ameri- ca, it was announced today. After their recent flight from Canada to England, the aviators de- cided to return in their Columbia. Their decision strong protests against the risk of their lives in the uncertain | weather of this time of year. Charles | G. Dawes, the United States ambas- sador, R. B. Bennett, premier of Canada, and others finally prevailed on the fliers to give up the idea. roused Long Jail Sentences For Officer’s Assailants Boston, Oct. 22.—(UP)—Jail sen- tences totaling a minimum of 21 1-2 years were imposed in superior court here yesterday on two South End men arrested several months ago in conneetion with the shooting of Pa- trolman Owen . Donovan. Donovan was seriously wounded | while attempting to ta the men to Brighton police station after tak- ing them in custody as suspicious | persons. Smith was given 10 years for as- sault with a dangerous weapon, 2 1-2 to 3 years for receiving an automo- bile stolen from Miss Catherine | O'Driscoll of East Providence, R. I., and 2 1-2 to 3 years for carrying a revolver. Gould was given 4 to 6 years for assault and 2 1-2 to 3 years for receiving a stolen automobile, SECTION Bridgeport, Palumbo, 50, hand em- ployed by the New York, New Ha- ven & Hartford railroad, was struck and killed yesterday by a New York- Waterbury express in Waterbury just as he was about to report off duty. a | Samuel | ne would w | face the charge plane, | ra | pared for ofi off Provinceto Oxford Students Renew Drive Against Co-Eds 0)5{0rd, Eng., Oct. 22 (®—A campaign of male students of this ancient university against having co-eds at Oxford has been renewed. For a long time many of the men students have been strongly against the co-ed policy. The student magazine Isis today pub- lished an editorial against woman students, inviting them to “make for home, angels.” One of the complaints Isis has against the girls is that they are indecorous—they ride bicycles in the street “with truly shocking display of worsted” and munch belated breakfasts of chocolates and biscuits in lecture rooms. AUTO PARKING BAN (Strip on Bassett Street Placed in Restricted Zone The administration of the Senior High school today adopted a policy forbidding students and teachers to park their automobiles on the west side of Bassett’street while attend- ing sessions of the school. Complaints have been received by Principal Louis P. Slade from time to time from property owners on the street. Many students of the school have thoughtlessly parked their cars in front of driveways or directly in front of front entrances to the homes. Several weeks ago Principal Slade asked the students at an assembly to try to be more careful about where they left their cars when in school. This request has gone unheeded and the school administration has finally had to prohibit the parking of automobiles in that area. The administration has also an- nounced that the parking of stu- dents’ and teachers’ automobiles will be permitted by the school depart- ment on the north side of Rock- well avenue, adjoining the Rockwell school. Every year the number of stu- |dents and teachers owning automo- biles has increased until traffic prob- lems have arisen. This is a far cry from the day when the only traffic problem of the high school was cre- ated by riders of bicycles. The ad- ministration of the school found it necessary several years ago to pro- hibit the parking of cars in front of school entrances. Hour Working Day Sought by Labor Union Cleveland, Oct. #) — A six hour working day will be sought by the railroad labor unions as their solution to the unemployment prob- lem. ‘In the same manner that they fin- ally obtained the eight hour day 12 ars ago, 700 representatives of the even labor organizations of railroad industry in the United States and Canadad are to meet in Chicago November 12 to lay out a campaign for the six hour day.

EDDY-GLOVER POST T0 NAME OFFICERS Annual Election Scheduled for Meeting Tomorrow Night Officers of Eddy-Glover post, American Legion, will be elected at the annual meeting of the post at the EIks' home tomorrow night. The session, which will start at 8 o'clock, promises to be one of the most im- portant of the fall calendar.

Members of the local American Le- gion post are planning to attend both of these affairs. Eddy-Glover post has already started its drive for members for 1931. The membership roll call opened on October 20 and there 1s | great rivalry between the posts to see which will win the first and sec- ond prize cups for posts attaining their 1930 membership first.
