 Recently the alderman, in a jocular some of the women bathers he had seen on the beaches about Bridgeport were immodest and that he intended to 1ntroduce resolution in the council requiring the women to wear knee length skirts with their bathing suits The picture represents a statue of a nude woman, her form slightly in- c1ined forward

"BILLBOARD ACT" ELIMINATES STATE
 AS TRYOUT PLACE
New York Play Producers Will
 Give Up Connecticut Be @ cause Of New Law.

Hartford. Aug. 10.-Because of the t'bi1lboard act" passed at the last session of the General Assembly, pro viding for the licensing of bi11boards at a fee of one cent for each square foot, New York theatrical managers may abandon Connecticut as a trying out place for their productions The law says that no advertisement occu- pying more than four square feet of space upon real property, except that upon which goods are manufactured or offered for sale, shall be allowed until 8 license is obtained from the secretary of the state to display such an advertisement and that the fee for the license shall lbe one cent for each square foot. New York theatrical managers say that this is a tax on posters and outside. display advertis- ing, that it4is illegal and that they will try out their productions elsewhere rather than pay the license fee. The law went into effect August l.
 'tIt looks like a, bad theatrical year in the Nutmeg State,'' said the Morn ing Telegraph yesterday ''The word ing of the law. caused considerable laughter along Broadway yesterday, embodying as it does, the necessity of making application to the secretary of state for all advertising matter that runs over the prescribed four square feet The application must also com tain and embody the location of the property in the. city, town or hamlet; it's distance from the state highway, railroad, public park or navigable rtV- CT from which it may be readable, and charge of one cent for each square foot over four square feet ;"
 New Jersey and Massachusetts have passed similar. laws. In Massachu- cts it was declared unconstitutional and an attempt is now being made to amend the constitution It has been said that the Connecticut act is un- constitutional.

SCHOOL FACILITIES
 TO BE OVERTAXED SAYS DR. SLAWSON
Tells Board of Education 66 More Rooms Are Needed
 for Influx of Children

At least 66 school rooms will be need ed within the year to care for the chil- dren whose parents will move here to take employment at the Remington tArms-U. M. C. Co.,, according to the statement of pr Samuel J. S1awson, new superintendent of schools, made to the board of education last night. He said he learned from real estate brokers that 800 rentals have been made here since July 1. pr. Slawson said Major W. G. Penhe1d had told him that all the factory buildings will be finished by. Christmas and by that time he said facilities wiH be required on the East Side for at least 1,500 more children
 pr. c. W. Deane made what prob ably is his farewell appearance before the school board last night when he read a report and thanked the mem bers of the board for their courtesy to him President Ravens in reply praised the work of Dr. Deane and said there never has been any nisun- derstanding or unpleasantness between the board and the retiring supeFin- tendent pr. Deane is preparing a re- sume of his 22 years of service which will virtually be 8 history of the schools during that period. He will submit it at a future meeting of the board.
 Vice President John J. Cullinan, sec- retary William B. Boardman and Will liam R. Webster were appointed a committee to draft resolutions thank ing pr. Deane for his long and faith ful service in the public schools. The board voted to adopt a new system of keeping its accounts. =t
 Principals of schools, under the new system, will have to make acquisitions for all school supplies before the school year begins. The complete cost of running each school will be known at all times. Each principal win have to keep a card-index system of supplies received and where delivered. tThe banks must return cancelled checks so that the bank account will be bal anced monthly. \ Architects will have to appear before the board with their acquisitions before giving them to con tractors. GThe supply clerk will have to keep a record of all surplus SUD- plies. Before purchases are made the superintendent of schools and the
 committee authorized to make the purchases will have to approve and then sign the vouchers

Official of Concern Believes
 Street Is Broad Enough for Traffic

Attorney Robert B. DeForest repre- senting James B. Gregory of the Ira Gregory Coal Go. before the common council last night opposed the proposed widening Of Stratford avenue from. the new bridge to Kossuth street on the north side. Judae DeForest said that MT. Gregory had been in business on the street many years and during that time he has watched the traffic in the street He said MT. Gregory was con- vinced that the street is wide enough and traffic conditions do not require that it be made wider. Several build ings which he owns there will be dam aged if the widening is carried out. in favor of the widening but no one else favored or opposed it.
 On the hearings for the relocation ot the tracks of the Connecticut Co. in several streets, Manager c. H. Chap

 On the assumption that the City Auto Go. is trying to corner the bus mess of supplying gasoline from curt
 pumps, permission was refused the and West avenues. It was said the
 company already has a number oi
 pumps in operation. The petition of Stephen Jantus tc
