THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1951 5 Cents Per Copy—$2.50 A Year PROCLAMfiTION At least one teacher has a television set brought about by the action of her children. It seems that this teacher who has a class of 26 pupils made a survey of the number of televis- ion sets in the homes oi the youngsters. She concluded that M of 26 families hod such equipment but was brought up short when one bright girl asked her if she had a set. She confessed that she didn't—but next day decided that the 'youngsters had forced the issue. Mr. and Mrs. Roland Graves are .imong the hundreds who glide over Arena Ice each Sunday atlernoon— at least Ihey did last Sabbath. They made a handsome couple but he privately admitted that the rusty skates which he wore were about 30 years old but for similar calibre to- day would cost almost half a C-nole. Mrs. Florence Parker, school nurse, has been named vice chairman of tlte Health Educa- tion Committee of Connecticut Health League.

On rainy days those two ominous appearing creatures In black are only Julie Metzo and Paul DuBrel, installation experts at Metzo Bros. The hard-working duo, believe In protecting themselves from the ele- ments so they outfitted themselves in a rainy-day suit of black imbber pants, coat and hat. Neither would win a beauty prize at a seal farm. Bulldozers, shovels and trucks are tronsforming a sandy rise in the rear of Gus's Main St. Hestauront to a level parking lot.

Ills was the first exhibition of the 57lh season of the Bridgeport Art League where It iitlractcd much attention last month; Grant, who works for someone else during the day, and who does his palnllpg for the most part In the dead of night Is neverlliele.ss one of. the moSl prolific painters in the area. Although his intensity of work is highly laudable, ho might do himself a world of good lo slow up u bit so' as lo .secure a.ihote favorable position lo evalu- ate what he has done. Grunt's all loo-obvlous love for- paint and.^lls application causes bim lo'someiimcs run away \vllh himself, and he rriore than once loiscs control over,j,-lils medium. Here and there 6ne eyes a paint- ing thot smacks of Individuality ond gives Insight to the notion that Grant Is.pressing his future with Insistence. Such paintings as the powerful "Legend'' and "Fan- tasy" wllh .Us snakc-llkc shapes, along with "Statuette arid Flowers" are seeming clues to the future of Joseph Grant as an artist.

ALONG THE SCOUTING TRAIL

with Charl

Slalo Motor Vohlclos Commission­er Charles F. Kolley today Informed The Branford Review and The East Haven News that additional in­spectors have been engaged to help In a Blttte-wlde campaign against defective automobiles on Connecti­cut roadways.

The stale official .said that the new men will be a.sslBned to regular Motor Vehicle Department crows conducting surpri.se inspections of vehicles throughout Connecticut.

"Because we are alarmed by the terrifying Increases In traffic ac­cidents, we Intend to do everything within our power to protect motorist.s and pedestrians from traffic deaths or Injuries. Finding dangerous and detefttlve cars will be one of our major-projects In this protection program, "Commissioner Kolley stated.

The MVD Inspectors will work with 1 state and local police agencies In various communllies at prevlou.sly announced dates and locations, the commissioner said.

"Even In the winter. If roads are clear, our Inspectors will he out to find those defects tha t so often cau.se traffic deaths or Injuries on our streets and highways," Com-mi.ssloner Kelley .said.

Commissioner Kelley said that, besides checking driving licenses and vehicle registrations, inspectors will check brakes, lights, tires, windshield wiper.s, steering mechan-l.sms, window and windshield gla.ss, horns, mufflers, wheel alignment and rear.view mirrors, among many Items,

"Even defective fenders will be checked, since cut or ragged edges on fenders can be extremely dan­gerous to pedeslrlans In case of ac­cidents," (Jommlssioner Kelley said.

Safely equipment on motor vehicles is so important that stale laws provide heavy maximum penalties for most violations. In­cluding defective brakes, windshield wipers or horns, the commissioner explained.

Commissioner Kelley added that the law also provides that unsafe cars can be taken off the road "Im­mediately" upon discovery by in­spectors or police, with owners or operators subject to court action tor the vlolalion.s.

Because the "surprise element has proved so'effeollve in locating de­fective vehicles" In previous road­side checks, Commissioner Kelley said that he was unable lo reveal when Inspections would be con­ducted In this area.

Well ll Ls Indeed with pleasure we can welcome our younRer brothers of ScoullnR lo the family here In Branford. Last Friday nl(;ht final plans were made for a now Cub Pack to start in town. That should encourage all you fellows from nine to eleven to get into the Scouling habit. As 1 have heard It you kids bolter check up yllh .vour teacher and see if .she has applica­tions.' If she doe.s't gel In touch with Mrs. I lanna of the PTA. Some of you older scouts have a great oppor lunlly to gel In some community service ancl help the PTA put this Cubbing Program across. Every Don will he In need o f ' a Den Chief so think twice before you turn down this chance.

Merit Badges are still rolling In by the twos and threes these days •but If you are planning to make this next Court of Honor you should bo pretty near finished with the re­quirements by now. Wo have a pretty nice crop of Star and Life Scouts on the way and It Is always nic i to see advancement.

Now that we have bad a Utile snow 1 hope that you kids wont put away your camping equipment until Spring. It you do, you will sure miss .some real camping weather. When we gel a real good snow storm, why not get your buddy and head for the woods. It will open your eyes lo try and build a i;ire with one match when Its wet all around. And Ihe tracks that you discover will also give you a better idea of where lo set up feeding stations for wildlife. That would be a good troop or patrol project with some swell re.sults-especlally If you like to lake pictures of native wild­life. If anyone Is Interested in sett­ing up such stations and wants help, give rtio a buzz and maybe we can work 11 out.

The Boy Scouts of America has gone "western." Until the end of the year while Its "National Round-Up" is In progress. Us ordinary ter-minolgy will be replaced by the language of the great open spaces.

In a big cooperative program, with lots of excltemnl and en­thusiasm and with every member and leader having a job to do, the "Round-Up" Is aimed not only to get all Units into high gear after the summer break In weekly meet­ings, but also lo bring Scouting to additional thousands of boys who want It.

Scout officials say that they know from past experience that many boys do not come into Scouting merely because no one took the trouble to invite them. Through the. "Round-Up" many boys will re­ceive personal Invitations to enjoy the high adventure of Scouting. Many boys for whom no local Scout Units may now exist, will find one organized.

For the duration of the "Round­up," each Cub Scout Troop and ex­plorer Unit win be known as a

ranch;" lis Unit leader known as Ihe "ranch foreman;" the boy lead­ers as "ranch top hands" and the boy members as "cowhands." The chairman of the Unit Committee, representing the sponsoring or parent Institution, will be the

ranch boss." Plans for the participation in the

National Round-Up by members of the Quinnlpiac Council were an­nounced by Harry L. While, who Is Council President.

The seven Districts of the Quin­nlpiac Council will be known as

ranges." The "range bosses" will be the District Commissioners. In The East Shore District Mr. Allen Bonwill is "Range Boss." Members of his Commissioner Staff will be the "range riders." District Scout Executive Jack Dunn Is the "Range Wrangler."

,The principal objept of the Round-Up Is to corral the "mavericks," boys not yet Cub Scouts, Boy Scouts and Explorers, and to bring back to the "ranch" or Unit, members who recently dropped out, lo be called "strays."

Each "ranch" will be visited by a "ranch rider" who will "put a mortgage" on the "ranch.' The Unit will set a goal for themselves in the number of mavericks or strays they will add lo their present member­ship . In order to "pay oft the mortgage".

The Quinnlpiac Council has a' total of 4700 boys enrolled in IGO Units. By Des. 31 next. It expects lo have a membership of over 5,000 boys In ]68 Units. '

PROCLAMfiTION

At least one teacher has a television set brought about by the action of her children. It seems that this teacher who has a class of 26 pupils made a survey of the number of televis­ion sets in the homes oi the youngsters. She concluded that M of 26 families hod such equipment but was brought up short when one bright girl asked her if she had a set. She confessed that she didn't—but next day decided that the 'youngsters had forced the issue. Mr. and Mrs. Roland Graves are

.imong the hundreds who glide over Arena Ice each Sunday atlernoon— at least Ihey did last Sabbath. They made a handsome couple but he privately admitted that the rusty skates which he wore were about 30 years old but for similar calibre to­day would cost almost half a C-nole.

Mrs. Florence Parker, school nurse, has been named vice chairman of tlte Health Educa­tion Committee of Connecticut Health League. The appoint­ment was made at a Hartford meeting this week .and goes only to recognized leaders in the health field.

"Therefore, the . committee In charge, deemed It a mutual ly sat|sfactloil arrangement to con­duct the comtnunion breagfasl at St. Clares. • • •

This w l l l b e his first one man show In his home towp but the third'one for him this year. Ills was the first exhibition of the 57lh season of the Bridgeport Art League where It iitlractcd much attention last month;

Grant, who works for someone else during the day, and who does his palnllpg for the most part In the dead of n igh t Is neverlliele.ss one of. the moSl prolific painters in the area. Although his intensity of work is highly laudable, ho might do himself a world of good lo slow up u bit s o ' as lo .secure a.ihote favorable position lo evalu­ate what he has done. Grunt's all loo-obvlous love for- paint and.^lls application causes bim lo'someiimcs run away \vllh himself, and he rriore than once loiscs control over,j,-lils medium.

Here and there 6ne eyes a paint­ing thot smacks of Individuality ond gives Insight to the notion that Grant Is.pressing his future with Insistence. Such paintings as the powerful "Legend'' and "Fan­tasy" wllh .Us snakc-llkc shapes, along with "Statuette arid Flowers" are seeming clues to the future of Joseph Grant as an artist. —

EVERY MEIVIBER CANVASS TAKES PLAGE IN AREA GHURGHES THIS COMING SUN.

The Congregational Churches of Branford, rexon and North Bran-.ford. Old Stone Church, East Ha­ven, the Tabor Evangelical Lutheran of Branford. and Union Cliapel of Short Beach are among the sixty churches In the Greater New Haven area which will parilclpato In the Tenth Annual United Every Member Church Canvass sponsored by the New Haven Council of Churches, on .Sunday, November 18th, according to the Rev, John W. Abbott, the council's executive secretary. LIsIng the-theme "Strengthen Your Church to Serve the World,'- Illustrated by a globe with church splfes stream­ing across It, these churches will .seek to raise sufficient funds to support their program for the com­ing year, and will at the same time urge their members to Increase their personal faith and to attend church .services more regularly, Mr. Abbott .said.

While each church conducts Us own financial drive,( with Us own methods of budget-raising, and Its own church services, the churches In the United Canvass unite In hia-terlals used, and In publicity, with the Intention of creating an Impact on the community which could not be obtained If each dhurch carried on Its canvass Independently. Ac­cording to Mr. Abbott.

Under the chairmanship of Thomas C. Brinley, well-known local layman, the council has per-pared materials Including an ap­peal folder oii attractive yellow and blue stock, a church calendar, a large poster and- a reminder card.

Alexander MacLachlan of Orange Is chairman of advertising for the campaign! and Mr. Abbott is di­rector or publicity and coordination. Other members of the committee In­clude Myrlon Farnham, Kendall P. Foster, Robert Holler, Gerald Hotch-klss, Percy Jacobs, Richard Otterson, Dr, Seldon Humphrey, W. F. Frann, George Ritchie, and the Rev. C. Lawson Willard, Jr.

Mr. Abbott stated,that the canvass Is unique In church movements In that the laity have taken the major leadership In formulating Us pro­gram. We congratulate the laymen of NewHaven who direct the united drive and who direct the canvass activity in each local church, Mr. Abbott continued.

Never before In history, Mr. Abbott concluded, has there been more publicity In behalf of religion. The Advertising Council of the States, for the third year. Is con­ducting Its "Religion In American Life Campaign," with millions of dollars worth of publicity for religious insltutions of ' all faiths contributed free by advertisers In newspapers, radio, and relevlslon. This year's theme, "Take Someone

to Church this Week — You'll Both be HIcher for It," Is timed to coincide with the local canvass drive.

The convass poster is shown in many .stores and shops throughout the area, as \Vell as In churches. The appeal folder, which is printed only on two sides. Is used by the local

arishes which print their own udgets on the Inside. The church

calendar forms will be used In most churches next Sunday morning. The reminders cards have been sent through the mall to parishioners and dislrlbured In churches last week.

It Is expected that more pledges will be made this year than ever before, and that large budgets will be raised becau.se of the Inflation­ary increa.ses in operation expen.ses. But canvass leaders emphasize that money raising Is not the sol6 pur-po.se of the conva.ss; the teams of canva.ssers who go out to partici­pate in a spiritual experlnce of re­newal and afllrmatlon of the things for which the churches stand.

Police Commission Moves To Redesign West Rotary^Traffic

Members of the Branford Police Commission have instituted a move to remove a poor traffic condition at the west of the center of Bran­ford, It was said this week.

Clerk John Walsh was ordered to communicate with the state high­way commission to determine the chances of widening the road at the rotary sign at the (unction of West Main and North Main Streets.

Commissioner Edward Kliperman said Tuesday that poor visibility for west bound traffic moving into the Post Road has prompted the move:

According to the Commissioner, if the road was widened at that point and gradually narrowed to the width of the .underpass a serious hazard could be eliminated.

Motorists have complained that It Is Irriposslble to see oncoming traffic on North Main Street while stopped on West Main at the stop sign.

• Kllgerman did not see a possi­bility of eliminating the stop sign since a severe jam might result with east bound traffic wanting to use North Main.

As the result of a traffic study, new curb markings and street cross­ings wore ordered In needed sports throughout the town.

Police announced that the park­ing limit In the center would be in­tensified following, the reports that townspeople were becoming lax in their observance.

Thursdoy. November IS, 1951 THE BRANFORD REVIEW • EAST HAVEN NEWS yaqeThr«»

A Rudder's Strength The transportation problem which will shortly exist be­

tween Stony Creek and Branford center, thi-ough a shore area in which more than 2000 people reside, is more than a matter which affects just that section. It is a town-wide problem de­serving of prime consideration by officials and citizens alike.

The recent hearing which packed tho Town Hall auditor-llim to capacity heard tWo repi-esentatives of the Shore Line Bus Company express the minimum conditions under which they could take over the line, soon to be dropped by tho Con­necticut Company. It was not a pretty financial picture which they word-painted. They want a guarantee of at least 1000 people to pay a minimum of $25.00 a year or a total of .'?25,000 to assure the Company of at least breaking even.

Their profit, if any, they figure, would bo made up of sum­mer patrons of shore hotels, and cottage residents.

Concelveably it is a harsh picture, painted in the black and white colors of facts unshaded by rosy tints of the possibilities of better connections for through travel and'speedler service.

The two transportation spokesmen. President A. M. Savin and General Manager Stanley Breck', cannot be condemned for not wanting to accept a possible loss for the convenience of those who choose, to live outside ,the central area of the town.

They assured all present at last week's meeting, that they will not have a $15,000 loss, as Connecticut Company figui-es show it did, principally tiecause of lower operating costs and a two cent rise in passenger fares for each fare limit. Even this they emphasized was insufficient to cai-ry the burden accepted by the Connecticut Company over the past several years. '

Residents of the shore areas are disturbed. They look for the\own fathers to help their cause.

While official action in the form of a town meeting cannot be expected, these officials should arrange at least three addi­tional meetings for persons affected, quickly.

The first meeting should discuss, fi'ee of any transportation officials, the facts of the Shore Line proposal and possibly tho action proposed by an ex-member of the Board of Finance, which was supported by the Superintendent of Schools, that the townspeople should petition the Public Utilities Commission to.force the Connecticut Company to abandon the entire line from New Haven, or give up the Branford franchise which in­cludes other shore areas to the south and west of town.

The second meeting should embrace the proposals of an independent group which proposes to run a private line to Stony Creek. It should learn of the dependability of service it can expect, and the conditions which the public anticipates.

The final session should review all proposals in a sane light, weighing the pros and cons; expenses against possible profits; .service against haphazardness. Then only can a solution be reached.

These meetings should be organized and attended by tho Board of Selectmen and the presidents and spokesmen of each Civjc and Shore Association. Failure will result in a loss of Branford business and a breach of faith with tho Voters who recently changed horses.

' Final action rests alone with those affected, but the weight of the town must give a rudder's strength to whatever course is piloted.; .

"Well Done" The response of the people of Branford to the Blood Donor

program wa^ magnificent. Due to the tremendous amount of work of all the volunteers, over 500 people offered to donate their blood at this time. Of this number only 200 people could be scheduled.

There are at present only 3 blood mobile units working in Connecticut. That is all we have. These units are stationed in Hartford, where the blood bank is maintained. They, must leave early In the morning to arrived at the particular town in which they are scheduled and the equipment must all be unloaded and set up. With every one working at a fast pace, this opera­tion takes approximately one hour. ,

After the Doctors and Nur.ses have had a hurried lunch, the first donor is processed. And for the next five hours, the line continues. After the last man has given his blood, all of the blood,' plus the cots, screens, tables, lights and many other pieces of equipment must be reloaded on the trucks. The unit which left Hartford at 8 A.M. is fortunate to be back in Hart-fbrd at 7:30 P.M-. This is a day to day schedule.

Because Branford had failed to meet their quota before, and because of an inadequate number of donors, it was decided to make a house to house canvass at this time in order to buiid up a reserve list of people who we could counted upon to fill the needs. - '

, Approximately 100 volunteers devoted many hours of then' time to acquaint the people with the need for blood and to se­cure the necessary names. They did a wonderful job.

Many more hours were spent trying to devise a schedule so that people could be handled with out a great deal of wait­ing This was carefully done and over 250 telephone calls were made to notify those people that had signed who could not be accomodated because of the limited hours. But in spite of this— many other people "just dropped in" and our efforts to handle as many as possible without delay was an impossible task.

Every pint of blood is vitally needed. We are sorry that all of you could not be handled at this time. If you had to wait longer than you had anticipated we sincerely apologize, but re-

THE HOLY SINNERS by Thomas Mann (AHtod A. Knopf, S?.??; pp 33S)

Where you oust your eyes on a si ream where It seemed lo l)c the most beautiful, colorful, serene — It you could stretch your eyes down and beyond vision's limits —• you would see the muck and mire from which the surface bonuty emanntes, licauly and .squalid tigllncss often seem to bo Insparable halves ot one iinolhcr; each being one and the oilier at once.

So It Is In Thomas Mann's latest novel THE llOLV SINNERS, liy the pLMi of one demons , Uio Moult who calls himself the "spirit of story lulling", we are told of the Vienule-ous WiUgis and Sll)ylla, Duke and Dutchess of Flanders and Aslroys who were twins born to Lord Crlmald and Lady Haduhennn. At birth the twins were left motherless, and at a lender age Lord Grlmnld died, That nlfiht the twins,' who were liiseijarablc halves ot one an-(illier; each being one and the other al once, commuted Incest,

It one wer to feel revulsion at tills net, the spirit of tho story tells us to wait, read on for there Is more to come. And" he makes good his iromlse for soon Sibylla Is to bear her beloved's child. Becau.se of tholr extreme youth, tlicy consult one Sleru Flsengreln, who tells WlUgls he must leave the country while Sibylla retires lo his estate to awnlt her child.

One would think that the .story leller's Imagination had exluiusled Itself at tills point, but he continues along as though what follows was nol Incredible.'A male child, he tolls lis, Is born lo Sibylla. Ho Is put in-lo a cask and set adrift in the son. The child survives and Is brought up as a flsheman's son — none knowing ot his origin but a Mpnk Gregorlus who keeiis the. tnlilcl which Is found with the Infant and which — in pari — tolls of his birth. The Monk names the child Gregorlus.

Selections from the Bible include the following: "Enter Into his gates with thanksgiving, and Into his courts with prai.se: be thankful unto him, and bless his name. For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlast­ing; and his truth endureth to all generations." (Psalms 100:4, 5)

mind you again that the willingness of so manyrp'ebple to give at this time was the reason for the delay.

We are endeavoring to bring the unit back in the near fu­ture at a later period in the day so that we may accommodate our remaining people who have offered tholr blood.

Our quota was 150 pints of blood. We donated 161. We taxed the capacity of the unit to thefullest extent.

niVEn IN AUTUMN

How full the river flows and on the shore

The faded gra.sse.s bend, the seeds take wing.

With dust like frost the wild blue grapes are hoar.i

The birds speak In a whisper, far from spring,

And all spring's hope .seeks out the fallow ground

The darkness and the'cold, there to abide

Knowirtg more surely than the river flows

That out of these shall come the summer's pclde.

M.Gilchrist I

Were you plea.sed with what your annuals did. tor .your .garden this (last summer? Or did you feel tha t with more, experience and better plonnlng you might .hove had more satisfactory results? Though it seems to be the ambition ot most good gardeners to get a continuous suc-cc.sslon ot bloom without resorting to the use of annuals , the fact re­mains that the majority ot us would be lost without them. During that midsummer lull when the- spring blooming bulbs and shrubs and the early perennials have shot their bolts, what would we do tor masses of color were It not tor atiriCialS? And even wjtn autuinn perennials in full .swing, the mad, late blossoming ot the short-lived annua ls Is some­thing for which there Is no substi­tute. • • ,

Wltli a .little forethought and know-how, annua ls can be made to .serve the 'pecu l i a r needs of each gardener, even though he be a .speciull.sl with a large proportion of his space devoted to one favorite flower. Growers of spring bulbs, lilies, delphlnium.s. Iris, and the like are, for a large part of the .season, in desperate need ot t h e ' h e l p an­nuals can give. And since there are moisture and, drpught loving an­nuals, lho.se that demand- ricn soil and tho.sc which prefer .seml-.starva-tion; deep and shallow-rooted sorts; tall, medium, and low growers a s well us vines. It is not too difficult to find an annua l for any purpose. Some of their uses, ' ln addition to their helpfulness In covering other plants which through blooming, are : for bedding and to,!;fIll In blanl< spaces in iiardy borders; tor screens or temporpry hedges; as ground covers; in the summer rock garden; for cutting; and for special locations and conditions, such as in part sliade,: ir|, hpt, dry positions, or a t the seasliore. By studying the list in catalogues, you sliould be able to check the ' performance of annuals you have already grown, and per­haps greatly extend their usefulness during coming sea.son.

There are a few really hardy an­nuals that can be planted how for blooming next sumrr^er. Putting these in just before hard frost Will save , time and work next Spring when there Is so milch to do. Prepare the, seed bed carefully, making fiiire tha t it has good drainage. Larltspui Shirley and California Popples, Cornflowers, Calllopsls and NlgcUa are the annuals usually planted ' ln autumn. If possible, place the poppies and larkspur where they arejto grow. They dislike transplant­ing. Candy tuft, Clarkla, Cosmos, Calendula?, GySophlUa, Mallow, Sweet A1ys,sum iiria Sweet peas are other "tougiiies" which- may come through from fall planting if the winter is not too unfavorable. Cold will not hurt them, but alternate freezing arid thawing with heavy wiriter rains may, be too much tor them. ,". :•

THE BRANFORD REVIEW-EAST HAVEW NEWS T h u r s d a y , N o v e m b e r IS . 1951

Itrai i ford Attack Fails: T o M a t c h ^lieltoii^fs HANDY MAN

BY BILL AHERN

Down by the rnllrond tracks the bloakncsfi of the deserted East llnvcn tower l.s n sort of memurlnl lo n man. No plaque decorates Us WnllR ami Jim Wilcox's only tribute Is hidden In (he unsuspected reaches of Oic minds of nearly everybody In East ilavenl—and In the unperuscd files ofllic Now Haven Road.

Thai two story wooden shaft, windows boarded, pnlnl pcollnR, hid a mnn'ii life until two dccnilos ago when It closed and over the past score of'years, the sconerlo was mostly placed hi Guilford with nightly iJrologue.H on the Shore Lino Bus and morning cpllogi|cs In the some vehicle. ' ' '

His bclween-thc-act stunt was set In East Haven where he grnbhcd eight liours sleep daily and besides attending to the chores of his own Klrkham Avenue homo, obliged neighbors with odd bits of handy work, from baby allter lo gardener,

Jim was n typical old timer who greatly loved his work. His ability to operate trains Was unquestioned as was his penchant for growing bigger vegetables than any one else. The railroad has a system which grants a man a bit of Written commendation for discovering shifted ]oad.s, hot boxes, sliding wheels, sticking brakes and any other disorder which an alert employee may spot. If Jim Wilcox.so desired he could paper the walls of his house with such letters written over the signature of the division suporintendenL So elllclent was he that he could Instinc-lively, without looking a t a watch, know that a train was delayed, long before a dispatcher tumbled to the fact that the choo.chbo had not been O.S.cd (the rallrond term for reported).

Indeed durlnR tlie war and lis subsequent years of disturbance, Jim trained scores of men over the block system telephone, long before he ever met Ihem. One of hl^ prize pupils is Doris Ericsoh, for many years the only woman opornloron the Main line.

In his early days Jim spent much of his life In various shoreline towns from Clinton lo NIantIc and developed a great love for clamming. Even in late years when,he might have spent his time sleeping, Jim would ;lalte time and Interrupt his slumbers to hit Great Harbor a t ebb tide, there to work exeeptlonaliy fast dfgging the mud and recovering luscious baker.?, succulent steamers and Juicy round clams.

The relaxation Jim found breathing the salt air which swept across the great meadows was more beneficial to him than restless sleep In which he tossed and relived the troubles at tendant to disabled trains.

Jim was a great relief man. Nightly he spelled his predecessor a t least 35 minutes early. There Was a later bus which he might have taken but he preferred the one which left. East Haven about nine. "That gives me plenty of llmo In case the thjng breaks down," he would say.

For some reason, never explained, Jim preferred to work the third shift from eleven to seven even though In late years he could have held any first trick post on the New Haven Division. Yet, In his younger days, when tlie East Haven tower was open, he enjoyed the daytime company of men who used his olllce as headquarters. Men such as Bert Baldwin, Branford mulntalner. ' '

In those days he loved to play cards—and was very good. Dally the men would sit around the table and loSe their money In set back and ])lndchle, to the little wizard who seemed to know whefe every card was. The men got wise to him. Soon they began begging oft by telling him that they hud no money. "That 's all right," Jim would say, "You can owe mo."

T h e n he'd proceed to h a n d ' o u t an unmerciful beating and would chalk the money owed him on the wall.

Finally, one day, the men gathered In the tower's heights and Jim rlffed the','cards Invitingly In his hands, breaking up the conversation continually,wlth "Lot's get started."

The men refused. "Wo owe you too much now," they said and started for the stairs. Jim was,hopping mad. He berated each and then quickly grabbed fora cloth and erased the sums from the wall. "Okay," he said, ."now you doii't owe me anything. Let's get started."

Ills mind was very retentive and chock full of odd stories about nearly every operator. He could tell stories by the'hour without repeating and loved most those carefree "Lock and Block" days when a man could play, curds or chat If he wished,' removed from the machinelike operation of the presient day. Automatic Block System.

But those men could tell stories about Jim. The best concerned Itself with the time he let a passenger train Into a dead end siding. Oblivious to h i s mistake, he sat back In contentment until the .phone rang and the flrcmen Inquired, ('What are we Inifor?"

Jim, his high, nervous voice, quivering with excitement, asked, "What the devil are you doing In there. Get right oiit of there. Get right out of there, 1 say. Then he backed up the train and sent It on Its

'way and though the entire system eventually learned what happened he was never more than slightly reprimanded for his mistake.

The dapper figure made few such mistakes but oillclals will tell you that such Incidents are the lot of every operator a t some stage of his career. Lives he ' has saved and property damage averted far (out­weighed the scales In his favor. '

Jim loved to putter around. Nights when he would come to work, he would tell of painting the house, 'or of his large garden; Everybody thought that his ^tory of a l"! foot tomato b'ush was thb rtialiirkcy until Baldwin, who used to cover the East Haven arpa, stopped by Jim's house one day and measured the plant. It was 14 feet high with an Inch to spare. As Jim used to tell It, "It was so high that I had to use a steplad-der to splice the pole support which kept It off the ground.

He liked the fall of the year. That was when he took his vacation. Many yards In the neighborhood will soon lose the spotlossness which once marked Jim's tender care. Leaves, even this morning; were scnttfcred about, a new chore which some harassed home owner must find tlnie to rake. , ; •• i

The Loland Harrisons' of East Haven were extremely fond of Jim. 'He mowed their lawn and trimmed the hedges, turfed the sidewalks and hood the garden. His request for money, was so slight that they always tipped him geheriiusly—Just to give him cigar money.

Jim loved cigars. Each night he took two to work with him. His ex­cuse was tliat they were too expensive to smoke more frequently. Ytt. ho might have been a tycoon once he sat In that swivel chair and lov­ingly pulled on its fragrance, shortly before mlflnlght. The'second cigar w a s reserved forjhis post lunch period, after the heavy business of the night liad been concluded. Then he was a king on a throne as he plugged in the cord to the block line and conversed wlth'everybody on the wire.

For several years now, railroad men have been puzzled why Jim did not take his pension or a t least a day Job^-but Jim had his reasons. He loved the iriodoratcly busy terminal of Guilford and his Job was his life.

"Tuesday n igh t Jim went to work as usual. He boarded the same red, grey and whi te bus, nodded hello to tlie driver and remarked about the Veather . Then he moved doWn the aisle, pleasantly alert to all the regu­lars and scanned the newcomers. Once at work he changed his clothes and bid his pre'dccessor good night, thirty.-flve minutes early. Shortly after midnight h is heart gave out and though he was removed to the hospital in an ambulance, he died, as every railroad man said he would, on tlie Job. ••.».,v,flW><

A few railroad friends will be a t the Funeral Home this evening and stories wil l ' f ly. Op In Providence, i 'calloiis'fclerk will haul out a file bulging wlOi commendation papers, mute tribute to Jim Wilcox's value to the New Haven Road, and scribble, "Deceased."

And over Guilford way, a rookie, tense with nervousness,, worrying against the day when he will sidetrack a crack liner, will call out In a strange voice, "124 by Guilford a t 10:17." and the dispatcher will answer, "Bight." ''.

MARGIANO PACES GAELS TO 6-0 WIN OVER LOCALS

Don Marglnno, rclurnod yi Ills previous All Stale form for u few .seconds Inst Saturday at Lafayclie Field In Sliolton lo spark a one touchdown victory over the liranford llornels.

The G-0 win gave Sliellon n second place tie with the loser.') In the Housatonlc League. The Gaels now have a season's record of five wins and throe lo.sseB. Branford s tands on an overall won and loss record of 4 and 3.

The Worren Sampson coached eleven, operating behind a single wing system, carried the brunt of the attack throughout the bright November afternoon but were check­ed, as against Milford, by several penalties and determined line play.

Only once In the afternoon was the Slielton eleven able to outstrip the Hornets and that came in the second stanza when Mnrglano sped 37 yards around hl.s own left end for a score.

llranford's own attack was ham­pered by Captain Bob Mason's leg injury' which reduced his effective­ness although Russ Gordon once more scintillated for the locals.

The Hornets received a golden o))-porlunlty early In the game when Bob Masscy, u defensive standout for Branford, blocked Moose Ous-tcroudt's atlomptnd punt and Joe Paul claimed the pigskin for the Hornets on the Shelton IG. Sticking chiefly on the ground, Branford advanced to the four-yard line be­fore the 'Gae l primary stiffened-to avert damage.

Late in the same stanza, the Hor­nets were buzzing again after re­covering a Shelton fumble but ran out of 'gas 11 yards away from pay-dirt. It was the same story midway in the second quarter when the Hornets drove to the home team's Id-lard stripe only to meet with futile results.

After throwing a monkey Wrench Into this march, the Gaels marched 86 yards for the game's lone six-pointer. A .pass from Dan Pisacane to Joe Kalson, produced 19 . yards and set the drive In motion. Pi­sacane tried the aerial route once more and his accurate flip to Mar-glano covered 13 yards and a first down on the Branford 47.

With "Butch" Rourke, a steady ground gainer all the way, and Mar-glano providing the spark, the Finnmcn penetrated to the 37-yard line. Taking a handoff from Pi­sacane, the elusive Marglano swept around his own left end and com­pleted his : tide-turning 37-yard TD gallop, eluding several would-be tackier en route. PIsacano's extra point try was blocked by Paul.

Branford threatened In the third panel, marching from its own 44 to the Shelton 12, where the drive went overboard. The Gaels con­trolled the situation the rest of the way, despite some brilliant running by Captain Bob Mason and Huss Gordon, kingpins In the Hornet attack.

Taylor was the defensive ring­leader for the winners and time-and time again threw Branford ball carriers ior losses at crucial points. He received solid support from Os-terhoudt and Marglano along with Ronnie Matusovlch, who received an early Injury and was used sparingly thereafter.

Olde Towne Restaurant Tops Toro's Tomatoes

Olde Towne Restanrant toppqd Toro's Tomatoes last Friday night In the Restaurant League at Mike Vennette's Bowling Center.

Dropping the first game, 5G5 to 517, 1(10 local pinstors came back with a,620 to 558 win and then tacked on the clincher, 535 to 499. Hop Nuzzo's 335 aggregate on 111, 114 and 110 paced tne winners but Individual high belonged to W. Santo of the New Haven combine who'smashed the p ins for a 344 set on knockdown of 121, 124 and 99.

The Sportsmen got away to a fast two game win over Stony Creek, hitting 541 to 502 to 529 before gett­ing lashed to the mast , 572 to 496. Stan PInskl's 324 pinning on scores of 121, 98 and 105 was the best winning effort but once again the losers came up with the finest per; formance when Hugo Mann blasted a triple of 368 on 124, 91 and 153. ,,

Aldo Gargamelli's 399 set on 138, 140 and 121 marked a resurgance for Pop's Grille as the lat ter combine pegged 564 to 486 and 586 and 583 to 513 before bowing 526 to 578. Johnny Donofrlo's powerful 365 ac-eountlrig on 103, 132 and 130 set the style for the losers- ,

Stone Wall Grille punched o u t . a 2 to 1 victory over Its Fourth Ward rivals 578 to 52G and 579 to 531 be­fore tasting defeat 566 to 573 In the late go. Butch Nalmo's 363 effort paced the losers and he topped the field with scores of 116 131 and 116. Clo.se behind him was Joe Zurkus of the winners who pinned 358 on 118, 123 and 117.

Coach Frank Crisafi of East Ha­ven's crack undefeated, untied, un-.scored upon football team was elat­ed last Saturday night after his charges had lieatcn n good Gilbert High of Wlnsted, 13 to 0.

In liranford. Coach Warren Samp­son wa.s a bit disappointed by the 6-0 .setback which allowed Shelton to top hlf charges despite a power­ful offense which did everything but score against the Gaels.

But Monday, Crisafi told his operators, "Throw the season out the window. This next game is the finale against Branford, a good, fast team which can score. We've' had good loams lose this one before. In a traditional battle such as this anything can happen."

In Branford, Conch Sampson was using different words to the same tune. A win can give you a tie for the Housatonlc League title. East Hnven may hnve depth and experi­ence but only eleven players, your age, can be on the field at the same time.

Thus did the rival mentors set the tempo.for the annual Turkey Day game which is expected to attract more than '1000 to Hammer Field next Thursday morning.

Both conclies have coooked up sur­prises. Both mentors are some hurt iiy injuries which will handicap their offenses. At present the con­dition of George Barron, a top flight tackle is causing concern and every­one is hoping that Bob Mason's leg injury will be .sound for use against the Yellowjackets who have tallied 233 points In seven games this fall and are ranked sixth in the As­sociated Press ratings.

Branford utilizes a two pronged single wing system for the most part and against Mllford and* Shel­ton used variations which hnve worked well. Minus a strong passer, the Hornets nevertheless have ex­cellent receivers. Sampson has three strong runners, Mason, Russ Gordon and iiill General. The first string line Is rugged and fast but Is lack­ing in replacements.

Branford fans are likely to see a switch In the offensive scheme which h a s moved Bobby Massey froni guard to blocking back.

East Haven has three men who will be out of the game because of bone fractures. Two are casualties, Warren Smith, starting guard, and Carmine Pellegrino, reserve quarter­back. Another back Ranfone, a third line operator, has a broken leg. Smith sustained a compound frac­ture at the crest of the illlac bone against Gilbert and Pellegrino broke | his right wrist against Seymour.

Big, heavy fast, East Haven Is favored to win the contest largely on the abilities of Ron Roii.settl, pro-ably the top schoolboy quarterback In the s ta te . He Is ably supported by power runners like Ed Henry Frankie Brerelon and Dutch Schultz. Defensively, Crisafi calls on the ver­satile,Vin Gagllardi to play defen­sive halfback. The latter's two Inter­ceptions against Winsted Saturday played a ' large part In stopping goalllne marches by the upstate club.

On the wings, the New Haven suburbanites have three very good operators in Co-captain Nick Pellegrino, Mike Montesatnto and Paul Merman. A standout, along with Lecza, Streeto, Ru.ssell, Orlando Is Junior Mario Mozzillo, 230 pounds of offensive and defensive strength.

The g a m e is called for 10 A. M. and will be broadcast.

Indian Neck School Given Grid Trophy

Brereton, Montesanto Score Touchdowns For East Haven

East Haven's high flying Yellow-jacket football team rolled merrily along its unbeaten and unscored upon path last Saturday, downing ^ stul)born Gilbert of Winsted eleven 13 to 0 at Community Field before GOO fans. It was the closest decision to date for tiie charges of Conch Frank Crisafi.

Penalties upset the touchdown timing of the winners In the first half but soon after the second period started the relentless power of the Housatonlc leaders went to the fore as Frankie Brereton and George Schult?. picked up luige yardage and Ron Ro.ssetti pinpoint-' cd his receivers with near profcs. slonal skill.

The game's overall opportunist, iiowever, was llio unsung left end Mike Montesanto who captured fumbles and passes witli reckless eclat. The senior receiver set up the first .score when he snagged a Gil­bert fumble oil Its 29 shortly after the second half started. Tiic nifty wing also concluded tiie scoring by grabbing a Rossettl aerial In the end zone in the final chapter.

Gilbert's finest performer was Captain Pete Aldrlch who as a de­fensive left end outshone his herald­ed abilities as an offensive quarter­back. Time after time, Aldricn's sure tackling nailed East Haven runners for losses. Sophomore Joe Coury was no less effective In a backer-up spot.

Although Gilbert had previously walloped Lyman Hall of Walllng-ford 57 to 0, Its attack sputtered bo-tore tlie strength of tlie Easllc de­fense, led by Paul Morman and Mario Mozzillo. The losers had only four first downs during tlio after­noon, one the result of a major penalty, one on an end run and tiie others on desperation heaves which carried to East llaven'.s 15, the closest any opponent has come this season to scoring on the big Blue and Gold array.

The Easties were penalized a total of 65 yards In the bruising game against 20 for the home team. In first downs llie winners enjoyed a wide advantage, lG-4.

Twice East Haven stopped Gilbert when Vin Gagllardi Intercepted Al­drlch passes Inside the 20.

FoH5wlng a scoreless first half In wliieli defenses featured. East Ha­ven came back to score early in the third quarter after Montesanto dropped on a Gilbert fumble on the 29.

Three plays gained but four yards but on tlie fourtli down RosSetIi pitched to Frankie Brereton In the flat and the brul.se lioy carried to Gilbert's 11. Rossettl picited up nine on a bootleg carry and Schultz made It a first down on the one foot fnark on a center smash. Henry picked up six Inches and Schultz lost one yard before Brereton bolted Into touch­down land. Schultz wos low on the XP try. •

Starting tlie last quarter Vin Gagllardi snagged one of Aldrich'.s passcij on his 17 and East Haven moved 83 yards for llie final .score.

Brereton picked up two and Henry made a first down wlien he scooted to the 29. Schultz and Brereton add­ed five yards in two plays .before Ros.selti completed a pass to Nick

Pellegrino on tlic 42. Henry grabbed a couple and Schultz smasiied to Giltiert's 39 on an Inside carry. A' penally gave East Haven five more yards and Brereton went to tlie 31 before a major penally sol the visitors back 15 yards. Henry lill to the 35 and lio.sscttl, on the third down, flipped lo Brerelon wlio carried to the 15.

Schultz foughfl i ls way to tiie 9 and then to the 3. Brereton battered Jo tiie one but Rossettl was tackled on Hie nine when lie attempted to round Aldrlch's end.

Tlie score was made on the next play, Iiowever, wiien Uo-isctti, .still tiie .state's lop quarterback in this reporter's notebook, fired a strike to Monte-santo In the end '/.one on an optional pass play which left the brilliant end unguarded in the end-zone.

Schultz split tile goalposts with his accurate placement to close out the scoring.

Running the ball to tlie 42 on the following kickoft, Aldricli look to the air and pinpointed a pass to Crossman on East Ilaven's 39. Ills next pass to Mike Verotto was com­pleted to the 15. A reverse, too well executed, took the ball to East Ha­ven's three when Vcretto carried but a clipping penalty nullified the gain and the Gilbert altaek sputtered for four plays to end when Gagllardi closed the threat by .snagging Al­drlch's tourtli down pass.

East Haven on three consecutive first downs moved to Gilbert's .37 as time ran out. "The summary:

Memorial day was fine for a parade and severol local troops looked fine as they poradcd In the sun; St. Marys boys carried the hall for the troops of the eenter,- and looked mighty smart.

Cigarettes, neck ties, pipes, tobacco, cigars, candy, .scurfs, hankerchlcts, playing cards, regular or penochle, checkers, combs, gloves, mittens, hose.

All gifts should be gift-wrapped land should carry two labels — one telling what the article Is and whether It Is for a man or a woman, and the other blank, to bo filled out at the home.*
