Kent of 252 “Pros- pect place, Brooklyn, N. Y., had a nar- row escape from bleeding to death about 11 o'clock Friday morning as the result of an automobile accident on Fort Hill, Groton. Mrs. Kent, ac- companied by her husband and daugh- ter were on their way from Boston to Brookl: ‘While coming down steep Fort Hill the steering apparatus be- came unmanageable and the machine skidded at a considerable rate of speed, finally crashing into a telephone pole near the foot of the hill. The car was upset by the force of the impact with the pole and the wind- shield ¥mashed into small pieces. Pieces of the glass struck Mrs. Kent in the neck with great force, severing arteries and the blood gushed from her. wounds. Mr. and Mrs. Whitt of Watch Hill came along in their car soon after the accident, and rendered all the aid that it was possible to give, but they were unable to check the flow of blood and Mrs. Kent was in danger of bleeding to death by the roadside as-it was out of the question to get the injured wo- man (o a hospital 5 Fortunately Dr. F. W. Hewes of Groton happened to be returming that way from attending a case in Noank, and he arrived in the nick of time. Mrs. Kent was taken to the residence of nk Merritt on top of Fort Hill where Dr. Hewes took up the arteries and sutured the wounds. Had the doctor arrived a few minutes later he would have been too late, as the hem- tient’s life. Aside from the cuts not injured and whil he is weak from loss of blood she is in no danger. ther he husband nor daughter were hurt in the smashup. The car, which was considerably damaged, was taken to a garage in Mystic. Mrs. Kent was LAST OF THE MOHEGANS FORM TRIBAL ORGANIZATION Following the close of the annual cele- tion of the wigwam festival Friday at the Mohegan church, the descendants of tribe of Uncas held a tribal council and formed a tribal organization which is | designed to change the “last of the Mo- hegans” into “the lasting of the Mohe- gans.” Two white guests at_the tribal council were Jonathan Starr of Norwich and Dr. Frank Speck, professor of American eth- nology at Universi of Penns; who is spending some time in th in study of Indian life. Albert Story, lineal descendant of Chief Unc: made temporary chairman of the organ- ization, with Miss Gladys Quidgeon sec- retary, and a date for forming a perma nent organization was set on Sept. 15 at 7 p. m., at this old Indian missionary church. Dr. Speck made the opening prayer at the council in the Mohegan language and Burrell H. Fielding sang an Indian hymn and gave the warwhoop. This is a voluntary citizens’ organiza- tion on the part of the Indians to super- vise malters concerning their private in- terests, their history, their traditions and their annual wigwam and fair near the old home of their famous ehief, the early friend of the white men. Coit A. Chappell Coit A. Chappell, a resident London fo rmany vears, died home in Clinton, this state, morning following an illness two months.

Largest Statge Im World What is to be largest statue world is being built by an Japanese wqrkmen on the Cow's Head in the Inland sea, which has been called the Mediterranean of Japan. The isle of the Cow's Head is private property and this adornment is 'a work of private enterprise. The figure will be that of St. Nichi- ren, who founded the sect of Buddhism that bears his nhame. In the wooden model the saint lies asleep, facing who- ever sees. him, his head pillowed on a block and his left arm extended along his side. The trees and scenery of the isle of the Cow’'s Head will provide an excellent sitting for the enormous stat- ue, that is to be cut out "of the solid rock from this model. The Colossus of Rhodes, at one time one of the seven wonders of the world, is said to have been 120 feet high, a small thing compared with the statue of Liberty, that stands 151 feet above the pedestal in New York harbor. But the Japanese statue will be of even greater magnitude. Following the line of the natural rock it will be a reclin- ing figure of 240 feéet long, and there- fore that much more impressive than the Budha at Pegu, Burma, which meas- urés 182 feet from head to foot. in the army of isle of the 2 Pretty Good Cinch. . - As a rule, when a mah manages te It is well enough for charity to begin home, hut > 4 n1 lil ~a there and sojne into a trance. gell himself at his own valuation there is a pretty good cinch tHat there is a swindled purchaser in the community, Touston Paost. orhages were so serious that they had | to be checked at once to save the pa-| The ancient legend of bitter and un- yielding rivalry in all affairs between the Rose of New England and the Whal- ing Town was completely, shattered Fri- day when the chambers of commerce and rotary clubs of Norwich and New Lon- don joined forces and made a howling success of their first annual combined outing at Riverside Park, New London. Those who keep the wheels moving in the realms of mercantile, professional and political life in Norwich left the Buckingham Memorial in 2 procession of about fifteen automobiles, with Tubbs’ Band in the lead and and whizzed to the City by the Sea. No mishaps occurred enroute. Down Huntington and State streets the pilgrimage wended its way 1o the Parade in New London, where the band gave a concert of several pleas- ing selections to the edification of the delighted populace. After a musical treat the New Lon- doners joined forces with the. men from Norwich and to the vast relief of a zeal- ous traffic officer rolled up Majn street and headed for the park. Arriving at the park, the procession was lustily wel- comed by the stentorian voice of genial Jim Hammond, secretary of the New London chamber of commerce, inviting the hungry horde to attack the appetiz- ing chowder which was awaiting them. Responsive as to the word of a com- manding general, the mob rushed up the hill in a charge that would haye put to shame the historic charge San Juan and with determination written in every feature attacked the culinary mas- terpiece. . After the beits had been unbuckled and hugh sighs of. satisfaction heaved, the assemblage adjourned to the recre- ation field to participate in some pulse- stirrivg feats of athletic prowess. . The first event was a free for all 100 yard dash, run in three relays and was won by Mr. Leary of New London. He was ipresented the trophy, a gold cigarette hoider. In this event the first relay was won by Chapin 6f New London, with Caron of Norwich second. The {second relay resulted in Leary of New London first, Langdon of New London second and the third relay was won by Baton of New London and Spencer of New London second. In the run-off be- tween the winners of the first and second places Leary proved to be the speedist 1 irunnr. The second event was the fat man’s race, which, as usual, was tho bannes attraction it being a phase of human nature that the sight of corpu- lent gentlement striving manfully and per- spiringly to cover a given distance in the shortest possible time is always an in- teresting. one. This race was run in two rela; the first being captured by Otto F. Ernst of Norwich, with Timéthy C. Murphy of New London second. The second relay was won by Dr. of New London and Mr. Dean of New London in second place. In the run-off Otto Ernst was deceided the winner.

The game was a jazzy one, being replete witi startling plays. masterly pitching, bril- liant fielding. Cobb-like running, Ruth- like hitting and errors and errors and errors. It was o conglomeration of every known play that the diamond has ever witnessed. On the surrounding hillsides the rooters madly cheered their favorites the band rendered musical in- spiration and the sun blazed down on the earnest athietes cavorting for the. honor Chipman | ponaon FORGETTIE BISHESS CARES FOR A DAY of their own home towns. The first two innings were very close, each team scor- ing'four runs. In the third New Lon- don scored four runs and Norwich two. And then jt was carnage. New Lon- don scored twelve runs in the remainder of the game, Norwich tallying but three and the pathetic result read “New Lon- don 20; Norwich 9.’° The result was sad to the Norwich men but they have sworn that the cup shail not rest peace- fully in the old Wraling Town to be-| tarnished by briny fogs.

The umpiring was of excéllent charae- ter, no disputes, aside from those insti- gated by Jack Cairns, interrupting the smooth ‘progress of the game. Jack is suspected of having radical tendencies. In the tug of war the ponderous crews sweated' and tugged, grunted and prayed, and in the last ten seconds Norwich pulled the fluttering bit of cambric over the line and held it there until the re- quired minute had elapsed. This was an exciting contest and was not ‘to be watched Dy possessors of weak hearts. At the beginning of the tug the spectacle was sedately watched by the blase throng in orderly position, but the last ten see- onds found them wildly yelling for their respective -teams and -massed in close formation almost on top of the muscular Titans. The anchors ‘were the widely known Constable Gus Lambert for Nor- wich and Charlie, Rice, of confectionery fame, for New London. The prize, a box of cigars; was awarded the winners and they departed in a haze of aromatic smoke. 4 Not the least interesting of the after- nQon’s cvents wasgthe quoit match. This was an elimination game which was cap- tured by Messrs. Lice and Leverone of New London. And then, o then, came the really big attraction—the bake! About 225 diners with 225 perfectly good - appetites sat down and paid the best tribute which a cook can receive. There were lobsters which” must have been caught in special- ly made pots, veritable monsters ol the deep : corn which must have been raised in Elysian fields; tomatoes which never reposed unassisted on their vines, cucum- bers whose green freshness was heaven- Iy, brown bread which brought up mem- ories of New Fngland Saturday nights, watermelon which rhade one love the sunny south, a plentitude of soda water and delicious ice cream which had been kindly donated by Jack Spencer of New The bake ended and the afternoon rap- idly waning, the satisfied throng ex- changed farewells and started home- ward, looking forward to mext year's out- ing. The affair was a compleet success and is (o become an annual one. The joint committee representing the New London oRtary club and the Cham- ber of Commerce was: J. William Clarke, Thornton N. M. Lathrop, Walter Lewis, James G. Hammond, Stanley Goldstein and Henry R. Bond, Jr. The joint com- mittee of the Norwich Rotary ciub and Chamber of Commerce was: Clinton E. Lane, Charles W. Pearson, J.

Racicot, 17, of 24 CIiff street, son of Raoul Racicot, was seriously jured Friday night shortly after 6 o'clock when he was struck by an automobile at The machine that hit him was driven by William J. Ryan of Norwich Town. The accident happened about opposite the office of Dr. Clarence Thompson. As reported by Mr. Ryan to police head- quarters, he was driving his car towards Norwich- and as he came along saw a man sitting on the wall on the right- hand side of the road. Just as the ma- chine was reaching the point where the man was sitting he suddenly got up from the wall and walked out into the road, directly in the path of the automobile. Ryan swung his car sharply to the left, but was unable to dodge the man man in the road, who was hit and knocked over by the mudguard. in- The man was in a dazed condition when picked up by Mr. Ryan and car- ried into Dr. Thompson's office. He had a gash in his head over the left temple. Aftef treatment by the doctor, the in- jured man was taken to the Backus hos- pital, where he was operated on about midnight for a depressed fracture of the skull. Who the injured man was when he was brought to the hoepital was not known at first, but later in the evening his father heard of the accident and visited the hos- pital and identified his son.
