Danielson, Conn. spent an interesting and happy Memorial day at the links south of this city. Match play, starting at 9 a. m., furnished diver- sion for many of the members. Women members of the club served a dinner at the club House. Local motorists who went into Mas- sachusetts for the “holiday found many of the state highways plastered for miles with freshly spread asphalt. Connecti- cut does some things better than does Massachusetts. One of these things is the practice the state highway depart- ment in covering up with sand or light gravel all freshly olled state highways. Massachusetts does not do this, as is attested by the bedraggled cars that re- turned here Tuesday night from across the border. Over 70 enjoyed the first clambake of the season at the Hopkins farm west of this city. It is understood that this clam- bakes are to be made a monthly event on a Sunday afterneon throughout the summer season. + Coroner Arthur G.
