Many friends mourn for the young man. He was respected, esteemed and litked as a man and clean exponent of sport. . He never drank or used tobacco, . He prided himself on his great physical develop- ent and led a life that kept him fit at | times to enter the ring at a moment's notice. Alexander B. Lundstrom was born in Sweden, September 25th, 1891. He came to this country with his parents when a lad and the family located in North Grosvenordale. re young Lundstrom received his educfion in the public schools and not long after he became of age ha took to rallroading and became a locomotive fireman running on the Wor- cester to New London division. He be- gan wrestling in an amateurish way in the village, nights, and soon sought matches outside the town. He was suc- cessful from the start. Finally he gave up railroading and with his brother-in- iaw, Otto Berger, purchased a large farm not far from North Grosvenordale village. Here he spent his time in the open when not engaged in the sport that he Joved. Finally the farm was sold and Lundstrom made wrestling his vocation. | He had traveled New England from one end to the other, meeting all comers and making an excellent record. His most notable mat achlevement was when he won from Pinkey Gardner, middleweight champion of the world, of Schenectady, New York. It was the third match be- tween the two. Gardner won the first at Schenectady and the second in Put- nam. The third, also in Putnam, went to Lundstrom. During recent summers Lundstrom had travelled with an outdoor carnival meeting all comers in exhibition bouts. His last bout was in Putnam last February. It was then that his hard luck began. His opponent was John Catchlitz of Pastford, who claimed mid- | dleweight champlonship of the A. E. F. The bout had not gone far Fastford boy hen the threw Lundstrom to the lagt week and his death followed Mon- day afternoon. Ostrowski holds, according to Coroner Dill, that Lundstrum was zig-zagging ng the state highway and was over toward the left side of the highway when the crash occurred. Other witnesses hold that Lundstrum was far over to the right side of the highway. It ig expected that the coroner's investigation will largely |clear up the facts and determine future action in the case. Relatives and friends filled her home at Brooklyn Tuesday afternoon when fu- neral services for Mrs. Gladys F. Mar- lor, who dled while visiting in Hartford, were conducted by Rev. Wilson Stewart, of New Britain. Burial was in the Mar- lor lot in the South cemetery at Brook- ¥n. The bearers were Judge Oscar F. At- Miller and Willis A. Ken- f Brooklyn, Francis E. Storer of son, George C. Woods of Centre- 1. and J. Foss Magoon of East Greenwich, R. I. There were beautiful floral pieces. A. . Wood was the funeral director. Miss Georgette Jette, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. D, E. Jette, of Broad street, is to locate in Danielson. Miss Jette is a graduate of the Emerson School of Ora- ory at Boston and has had much dra- matic experience, appearing with some of the best known stock companies en- gaged in the east. Coroner A. G.

Through Tuesday there continued to be two groups of business men in Daniel- and closing their places of business, some on standard some on daylight saving time. With only one dissenting veice, the Chamber of Commerce,went on record Tuesday evening as in favor of daylight { saving, and it will be universally adopted by business houses in the bo: gh this (Wednesday) morning. For several days |there has been a warm discussion over the time question, but everything was harmoniously adjusted at the largely af tended meeting Tuesday eveuing.

Lundstrom struck on his left shoul- der and it was at first thought the shoulder blade was broken. It develop- ed that the ligaments had been torn from the shoulder and it put Lundstrom out of the game. It was while convalescing from this accident that Lundstrom was on his way from his home in North Gros- venordale to his brother-in-law’s farm in Perryville, Mass. This was about three weeks ago. Lundstrom set off in the early morning on his bicycle. While pedalling along the state highway in Wilsonville, at a point a few hundred feet inside the Connecticut line, a jit- ney bus plying between Webster and North Grosvenordale came along at a g0o0d rate of speed and struck Lund- strom’s bicycle. Lundstrom was thrown and received bad cuts and bruises. His most serious injury was- a compound fracture of right lef. The ragged bone cut a bad gash through the flesh and blood polsoning _developed. Lundstrom was taken to St. Vincent's hospital, Worces- ter, and was immediately placed upon the danger list. As a last resort it was decided to amputate the injured leg but the patieft was too weak to receive bene- ficial results from this drastic attempt to stop the progress of the poison. The young man. of strong physique, did not know what it meant to be {ll. His condition worried him and this tended to retard his progress. Words of cheer were sent him by many friends and ad- mirers. Only a few days ago a ‘“cheer- ing” fund was started and,in a day or two over a hundred dollars was sub- scribed. It -was hoped that this might tend to,arouse Lundstrom's fighting spir- it and bring him courage. But It was too late. The end came while the patient lay on the operating table under the in- fluence of an anesthetic. Lundstrom’s - father died some years ago. He is survived by his mother, a brother in Norwich, a sister in Perry- at ville and two sidters North Grosvenordale.

Severa] fires were in sight to the southward that seemed to be of considerable dimensions, At this time of the year people are warned not to throw matches or cigarettes or cigars by the roadside near the dry leaves and to be especlally careful while tramping through the woods. Tuesday with its summer temperature brought to mind the old swimming hole. It also brought to mind for the 'steenth consecutive year that the youth of Put- nam have 1o old swimming hole to which “Bey can go. I is to be deplored that such is the ract. Places where the boys of a decade ago went in swimming are available no longer. With the growth of the city and the increased travel due to the automobile places like the “Little River Bridge,” the “Point” and even un- der the dam at Cargill Falls, where once the youngsters sported about any and all warm summer afternoons, have now become too public places, even i the water of the Quinebaug was fit to bathe in. There is only one available spot at prasent and that is at what is known as Tourtellottes. This is a mile from the center of the city, the swimming hole is not over four feet deep and it is too emall to admit of but a few bathers at once. It is the logical place, however, if an artificial swimming hole was to be attempted. Roseland lake will probably again be resorted to by owners of auto- mobiles. This is Putnam's water sup- ply head and the thought of hundreds of bathers sporting in it is decried by many while otners think that before it reaches the pumping station two miles away the water purifies Itself. The women members of Putnam Country club held a meeting Monday af- ternoon at which time the plans for a sun parlor to be used by them was dis- cussed. The plan is at some future time to erect such an addition on the north side of the clubhouse. While some thought that the plan should be put in- to immediate effect the sense of the meet- Ing seemed to be to wait until more funds were at hand. It is estimated that the work will cost §500.

The body will await the action of the common couneil which it is believed will be in favor of Putnam abandoning standard time for the summer months. Most of the mer- chants express the belief that it is the right move in view of the fact that the factories have adopted it.
