VANDALISM RESENTED.
Those Who Attend Dances in Town Hall Trespass on Other Portions of the Building.

That young people who attend danc- es at the town building have been abusing the privilege accorded them in the renting of the halll was made
 strikingly evident Thursday after noon. Some of the young people who attend the dances have during inter-
 missions, sought out the most seclud
 ed and darkest spots in the town build
 ing to eat their ice cream. They have
 trailed all over the. building wherever
 a door was found unlocked and even
 gone into the police court room and
 occupied the judges bench. Many
 protests have been made, but the mat
 ter hardly ever went any farther ex
 cept during the reign of former First
 Selectman Isaac Sandersun, who noted
 what was going on and specifically
 notified those renting the hall that
 when they did so they rented the town
 hall and not the whole town building. Conditions have been much worse
 of late, and Thursday afternoon the climax was reached when a bunch at tending the twilight hop" while Chief E. H. Richmond was out late in the afternoon, descended the stairs and in vaded the corridor and patrolmen's s room in police headquarters and pro- ceeded to make a mess of the place. Ice cream was thrown all over the floor and upon the windows to the swinging doors. Upon the chiefs re- | turn he was justly provoked.
 Friday morning, First Selectman Robert E. Mitcehll was told what had been done. Wednesday evening Jo- seph Ellis, assistant janitor of the | town building, was forced to send out of the common council chamber seven | couples who had gone there to eat | their ice cream in quiet.
 The patrolmen's room has frequently been used as coat room by dancers
 and even the nocturnal quiet of the police court room has been disturbed | by dancers who invaded that room tc eat ice cream In the morning the l janitor would find plates, spoons, etc. 1 about the room and even upon the | judges bench. After every dance ex. | tra labor had to be expended in clean ing up after the thoughtless frequent CTS of all parts of the building. People | occupying offices in the building art | becoming disgusted, and hereafter
 when the hall is rented for dances i will be the town hall and not the en tire building. The entrance to tht
 town hall is on High street, and it i!
 said that the board of selectmen vii 1 be requested to have the double door leading from the entrance to the towl hall into the lobby of the town build ing proper locked hereafter during |; dance so that the dancers will hay,
 to remain in the town hall and it own entrances and. ante-rooms.
