Berlin News KENSINGTON GIRL STRUGK BY AUTO Badida De Sarro's Tnjuries Not 48 Serious as Feared YOPP ARRESTED AGAIN Constable Ventres Hears Shots, Finds Gun on Negro—Sanada-Macrone Nuptials—Cross Fox Shot—Ken- sington Downs Berlin on Gridiron. Miss Badida DeSarro, 15, of Ken- sington was injured about 1:15 o'clock yesterday afternoon as she attempted to cross Farmington ave- nue just east of the underpass and was knocked down by an automobile driven by Patrick Buckley, also of Kensington. Mr. Buckley took the girl to the New Britain General hos- pital, where she wag immediately examined for eternal injuries and fractured skull. It was stated this morning by hospital authorities, Thowever, that her injuries consisted only of lacerations and slight bruises and that there were no broken bones or serious injuries as had been fear- ed at first. The blow struck by Buckley's car was only a glancing one. The girl is now resting comfortably and will probably not be detained in the hos- Dital long. The mishap was evident- ly unavoldable, and Buckley was not arrésted. Gun Toter Held Again Constable Orville §. Ventres ar- rested Thomas Yopp, Negro, on Christian lane last night and brought him in to the New Britain police headquarters on a charge of carry- ing concealed weapons. A .32 cal- ibre revolver was removed from the person of Yopp at the time of his arrest. Two cartridges had been exploded. The shooting of these iwo cartridges was what attracted Constable Ventres' attention to the gun-toter. Yopp waited in the New Britain jail today to be tried in the JBerlin town court tomorrew night. (Constable Ventres was walking near the turnpike when he heard two shots fired somewhere back of him, apparently on Christian lane. Stepping to one side of the road and keeping in the shadows, he waited and soon saw a man walking along. The constable stepped up to the man and found him to be Yopp, who has been in much trouble, police-wise, before. Yopp was ask- ed if he was doing some shooting, and replied, “No.” The constable then searched Yopp and found the revolver, so placed him under arrest and brought him to New Britain. Yopp was in trouble a little more than a year ago when he shot and wounded Jack Perry in Kensingtoa. Perry was an uncle to Yopp, and he was Killed a short time later by one Sam Thomas, who fled and has never been seen in this part of the country since. Last March a Negro named Fred ‘Wilson shot at Hamlet Scott, but the yevolver from which the shots were fired was never found. Yopp said last night that his mother bought his revolver from an uncle, but Constable Ventres is investigating this angle of the case, and is of a firm belief that the revolver taken from Yopp last night is the one used by Wilson in the attempt o Kill Scott. Sanada—Maccarone A large group of friends was pres- ent this morning at St. Paul's church as Miss Jennie Maccarone, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas type, pair ...... 7s Hose, STREET FLOOR Maccarone of Farmington road.| Kensington, and Ralph M. Sanada, | son of Mrs. Mary Sanada of 192/ Smith streety New Britain, were married. Rev. John C. Brennan | performed the ceremony.

The bride wore a beautiful gown and train of white satin and French lace with a cap and trimming of rose point and duchess lace. Her veil was of ivory tulle and she car- ried a bouquet of white roses and lilies of the valley. * The bridesmaids carried bouquets of roses. The bride was educated in schools in Italy, while the groom at- tended -the New Britain schools. A number of cars were seen leav- ing the church after the ceremony decked in gay streamers and colors. The group that assembled. for the occasion came from New York city, New Jersey, Providence, - Hartford, New Britain and Berljn. - Following a wedding breakfast the couple left on a trip to New York city and New Jersey. Kensington Beats Berlin The Kensington sand-lot football team won a game against the Ber- lin eleven yesterday afternoon by a score of 24-0. The game was play- ed on a vacant lot in Berlin. Kasiski of the Kensington team scored three of the touchdowns while captain “Lefty” Helenski made the other marker for the win- ners. It would scem that the night practice under the floodlights of Berlin billboards would have car- ried the losers to victory, but pos- sibly the sun hurt their eyes aftes so much night playing and, coupled with the dazzling speed Kensington exhibited, was too much for them. Halloween Supper Wednesday The Ladies’ Aid society of the Kensington Methodist church will serve a Halloween supper in the | church parlors Wednesday evening.

Southington Teams Victorious Southington teams had a field day at the expense of local elevens over the week-end. Thé Lewis High Ischool team nosed out Plainville High Saturday by 2 7 to 6 score Plainville Blues yesterday by 32 to 0. The high school battle Saturday was played in a steady downpour of rain which handicapped the players on both teams. The game was staged at Recreation park., Taylor's line plunge scored the touchdown for Southington and a pass, Paldino to Macola, gave Lewis the extra point. Plainville's touchdown came after a 60 yard dash by Hibbard following a pass from Caparelll. The local failed to tally the extra point and thereby lost the decision by that margin. The teams were evenly matched and played a hard brand of football throughout. The Plainville Blues showed lack of practice and condition against the Sons of Italy of South- |ington yesterday at the local high school field and were snowed in un- der a 32 to 0 sco¥e. It was one of |the worst beatings received by a | Blue team in recent years. | | but the Southington aggregation was far superior to the locals and dis- played a flashing attack. At times the game became exceedingly rough because of individual fights between the players, a usual occurrence when Southington and Plainville teams clas Funeral of Lincoln S.

SESSIONS Unveils Portrait of Benelactor— Minister Praises Him DRUNKEN DRIVER FINED Strect Man Charged with Myrile Three Offenses—400 at Veterans’ Dinngr—Fire Does $2,500 Damage —Local Football Teams Lose. An impressive address, in which {the memory of the late William E. | Sessions was honored. was delivered | by Rev. Arthur H. Goodenough of | | New Rochelle, N. Y., at the Pros-| pect Methodist church last evening. {Its title was “A Personal Tribute.” | A handsome painting in oil by George E. MacMannus, noted Hart- |ford artist, was presented to the church by William Kenneth Ses- sions, son of its late benefactor, in |behalf of the Sessions family. This portrait of Mr. Sessions was unveil- ed by Barbara Sessions, little daugh- |ter of Mr. and Mrs. Edwin Stewart Sessions and great-granddaughter of the person in whose memory the service was arranged. | Mr. Goodenough said: “It s a high privilege to be with you this cvening, and to assist in this im- pressive service. I believe that such services always make a good impres- sion on the community where held. 1t is most fitting that such & service should be held in this church “Tiferc is an invisible audience with us tonight. William Edwin Sessions is soully here—so are manv others whom we have known and loved in other days, and who are in- terested in what we are doing. That is my conviction, for 1 firmly be-| lieve in life after death. The true| soul mever dies. It is a thing with me that there is a spirit world. and when God wills, we shall be citizens of that world. “I cannot tell you anything about Mr. Sessions you do not know. Yet you expect me fo talk about him, and I will. I did know him pretty well and it made my life larger and better. His presence was always felt and enjoyed. 1f 1 were to ask what would be a fitting subject for such {an occasion as this, 1 would say ‘The Beauty of Goodness” The {wo out- |standing things about our friend were character and work. These two factors are always found in persons truly great and sincerely good. “Rev. Dr. Posdick, one of N York's well known preachers, ways telling the people that beauty is a major part of religion, anl that is so. God is the All Beautiful One. He has given us a world of {beauty to live in and enjoy. Smart- sure, | |ness is neither goodness nor great- |ness. Merc smartness is transitory |fickle, passing. True greatness is permanent, .enriching, cternal. A beautiful human life, in a cottage or mansion-—and you'll find it in both places—is a thing heaven smiles on. Tells of Bristol's Beauty “The landscape about Bristol is beautiful. I take it that your own | lives take somewhat of the sur- { rounding country; beautiful country, beautiful people. There are few things more beautiful than flowers. Everybody loves a rose. What is it in a rose that so appeals to you? Color, strength and sweetness. There were times when Mr. Sessions ex- hibited the quality of a rose, and so commanded the admiration of those about him. The violet is a tiny modest flower. There it is hiding its | beauty with its own leaves. But you could not stand near a bed of violets two minutes without knowing the sweet little blossom was near you. Sometimes, Mr. Sessions’ presence was as quict, modest and beautiful as the violet, and perhaps those werc the times that our friend was at his best and most useful. “Men live in decds, not years: not breaths, in feelings: not in figures on a dial. We should not count time by heart throbs. He most lives who thinks most, wills the noblest | |and acts best. | “William Sessions was a truly re- | |ligious man. He was also a prodig- | |ious worker. Honest work and plenty |of it with him was religion. Lots of }\"f‘D}’!l" are coming to that way of thinking. God is the Great Work- | jer. Socially, again, two things | Mi stand out promipently in his life. Did He Hit or Miss? T'LL AIM AGAIN...T HAVE TO FOLLOW THAT SWAYING ROPE ... GEE... THIS MAKES A FELLA SweaT!! NoW I.. 60T..\T.. RIGHT...ON... THE... First, his confidence in and sup- port of ministers. He had an exalt- ed opinion of the Christian ministry. His own pastors, especially, he loved and honored. That is a noble trait. I am glad of the opportunity to em- phasize that fact. But he was not confined to Methodist ministers in his attachments. He was a true friend of the late Rev. Dr. Miles, a long time the honored pastor of the Congregational church in this city. Ifather Keena, the beloved priest of the Catholic church in Bristol, shared in his good wishes and bene- faction. Both of these two gentle- men were my trusted and helpful friends. Praises Love of Children “One more thing Mr. Sessions stood for, and should be mentioned here, was his interest and love for children. Our good friend loved children so much that he counted it an unkindness 1o cu and fun, and he though. it almost wicked to check their hilarious laughter, no matter where they were. He gave a host of children on Chip- pens Hill and in Bristol a glorious tim2. It was a joy to him to do it. “Think for a minute of the hun- dreds, maybe thousands, of men and women all over this country and in some other countries as well, with homes and children of their own, filling responsible positions and liv- in; the true Christian life largely through the influence and guidance of William Sessions in their child- hood days in the Bristol and Mount Hope Sunday schools. He beautiful- ly served his God and his age in the lives of those he ministered. “This picture in oils, presented by Mrs. William Edwin Sessions and her two sons to this church is orthy and Christian act, through the coming years will be constant reminder of the nobility of the man who loved his church and did so much for it. You, T am sure, will appreciate Mrs. Sersions’ gift by emulating the example of the man we loved so much. “John Humphrey Sessions, Henry slons John essions and William E. Ses- Ul of them have gone to their {reward, but their names are indeli- bly written on this noble structure, given largely by them for the sery- ice of God and for your use and benefit. I gladly offer to you and to my good friend, your beloved pastor, Rev, Hubert D. Jones, my congratu- lations and pray that God may bless you and prosper you all.” Many at Service The church was filled to capacity for the service, which was for the most part musical. Delegations of members from the Asbury Methodist church of Forestville, the Zion Lutheran church of this city and the Unionville Methodist church, besides employes from the Sessions Clock company, Sessions Foundry com- pany and the Bristol Trust company, wére in attendance. The choir, in addition to its cur- rent personnel, contained many who sang in the late Mr. Sessions’ time. Tsaac B. Clark of Waterbury direct- ed it. Miss Josephine V. Kendrick of Hartford was organist. Drunken Driver Fined Edmund J. Deeney of 32 Myrtle street, who was arrested by Officer John McLaughlin at 6:35 o'clock last evening on charges of reck driving, driving while under the in- fluence of liquor and evading re- sponsibility, was fined $150 and ¢osts in police court this morning by Judge Joseph M. Donovan. Police report that Deeney was driving an automobile which crashed into another operated Archie Lohnes of 2§ street, Waterbury, on } He ran away from t accident but was captured on Wooding street, where he was seen by Stanley Sopczyshin- ski of 22 Conlon street speeding away. An examination by Dr, Ben- jamin B. Robbins, police surgeon, at police headquarters showed that the man was in no condition to drive a car. Blackall Gets Commission Charles H.

The blaze, fought by Squad A and Companies Nos. 1 and 2, was a stubborn one. three lines of hose having been laid before it was brought under control. It was a two-hour fight. The fire, discovered by Mr. and Mrs. Alfred LaCroix, started in’ aa attic in the rear of the building and gained considerable headway befors the firc department was summoned.
