Frank Commer, of No. 3 Ward street, who is reported to have been one of the passengers in Hayman's car, was taken to the hospital from his home about one o'clock this &Monday) morn- ing as it is thought that he is suffering from a broken jaw bone. Commer was attended by Dr. Shont and afterwards by Dr. Cassidy who ordered his remov- al to the hospital in the ambulance.

STABBING AFFRAY IN YARD ON CEDAR STREET | About 11 o'clock Saturday night Frank Prudente, 27 yeacs old, stopped Officer Michael Cavroll on Franklin square and asked him where he could get a doctor. Officer arroll asked Prudente what the matter was andi Prudente exhibited a badly cut lcwer lip which he claimed he received atj the hands of Pacifica Duca, 42, in a fight in the yard at No. 133 Cedar St. Officer Carroll took the man to the police station. Dr. Louis T. Cassiay was called to attend Prudente’s in- juries which it was found consisted of a cut under the lower lip, the cut extending almost through, a cut on the left arm near the wrist and cuts} in his clothing, one at the chest and another at the arm of his coat. Nei- ther of the latter cuts extended through his clothing to the skin. After Prudente had heen attended Officers Caroll and Patrick Murphy were sent after Duca and he was taken to police headquarters. Both Prudente and Duca were arrested, the charge being assadlt. They are still at police headquarters in default of boads of $1,000. It has developed that when the fight was stopped a man by the name of Joseph Grillo, with whom Prudente boards at No. 133 Cedar St., he took an unloaded double barrelied shot gun from Duca. No one seems to know what the fight in the yard was about. BOARD OF REGISTRATION MAKES 286 NEW VOTERS After two days spent in making voters | Saturday™and a week ago Saturday, the| Norwich board of registration found they had made 286 out of the list of 711j eligible to-be-mades. Out of the 302 men on the to-be-made list 129 made voters and out of the 409 women to-be-mades therc were 157 who ap- |the state of Connecticut in the past! peared before the hoard and got their names on the voting list. The board found they always do | that many people wait until the day| when the board is making voters anaj then expect tv De considercd, whereas | they should have put in a petition just | as soon as they decide to become vofers Unless they have put in a petition in advance they cannot be made by mere- 1y appearing on the day the board is| making voters.

Stoeckel, were too deep for him to answer and were referred to me” says Philip Curtiss of Norfolk. “I do not pre- tend that the answers are official, but after all, they are answers.” S Question: Where two roads intersect at right angles, thus making four ap- proaches to a given point, four cars are approaching at the same speed, one on each road and all about the same distance from the intersection. What i would you do if you were the driver of one of the cars? | Answer: Persomally, I would give the reins to my wife and hide under the seat, but the theoretical answer to this problem is as follows: The law states that, when two cars are ap- proaching an intersection, the car on the right has the right of way. By drawing a diagram of the four ap- proaches and using four beans to re- present the four cars, it will be seen that each car is on the right of one of the others and thus all four cars| have the right of way. If the four drivers are sticklers for form, the thing to do is to step on the accelera- tor and go right ahead. The result will be very interesting. Incidentally, this is a very fair illustration of what usually happens to motorists and oth- lers who “ know their rights and in-| tend to get them.” Question: What is the definition of the word “bystander.”? Answer: In the Foolish Dictionary a bystander is defined as “ome who i hurt in a street fight.” The correspon- dent who sent in this question probably meant “innocent party” which term is applied to one who causes an au- were | tomobile accident. It is very curious| that in 4,823 automobile accidents in five years n one of cerned was driving on the wrong side the cars con-| OBITUARY, FRANCIS J. LEAVENS, . | NOINE The death of Franels J.
