ANTONIO AURlLIO IS SENTENCED TO
 JAIL FOR 5 DAYS
Fined $1OO and Costs by Judge Wilder For Reckless
 Driving.

: In the city court today Deputy Judge Frank L. Wilder imposed a, fine of s100 and costs and a. Jail sentence of five days on Antonio AuriIio, 155 Willard street, arraigned on the charge of reckless driving. Through his attor- ney, Henry Greenstein, AuriIio ap- pealed and furnished a bond of $20o, for his release.
 That he was driving his automobile between 40 and 50 miles an hour in an endeavor to elude Constable Arthur French of Trumbul1s who had a loaded shotgun resting on the handlebars of his motorcycle, was the statement of AuriIio.
 s Attorney Greenstein claimed that his client was not going more than 30 miles an hour at the time of hi4 ar rest He then cross-exa mined Police- man Harold BeardsWorth, who was in sistent that his speedometer recorded Aurilio as travelling at the rate of 46
 miles an hour when he was overtaken after Q chase of two miles beginning at the town line.
 Auriho gave as his reason for leav- ing the main highway, that he wanted to reach this city as speedily SIS he could, as important business was awaiting his attention. He first said that he was travelling at a rate of 20 miles an hour. He was interrupted by Prosecutor Alexander E. Delaney who ~erninded AuriIio of the confession he made to him Monday morning in which he said he had left the main highway in "order to escape the buckshot, which was sent after him by the T,rumbuH official After being 1n- formed by Prosecutor Delaney of the penalty usually Tneted out to perjurers Aurilio broke down and admitted nak- ing the confession Monday and inc formed the court that 1t was true,

WHAT WILL THE BILLS. BUILDING COST THE CITY? '
 Rogers, Architect, Says We'll Get $35O,O0 Struc-
 ture For $31O,OOO. COMMISSIONERS NOW
 IN FEAR OF SUITS Head of Board F1ees From Interviewers City Has
 Paid $264, ,O51.

Is Bridgeport going to get a $35O,- 900 high school for $310,00O; or will Bridgeport pay considerably more than $31o,0o0 for building presuma- bly, worth only $31O.OOO
 Following the recent developments in the tangled finances of the new building, folks who have investigated the contracts and notifications of cont tracts are trying to answer those questions. To date, it looks like an even bet either way and there are some who'll make a book on the proposition. any way you want to swing.
 Architect James Gamble Rogers figures the school will be worth $350,- 900 when it is done. His authorization of payments to the. original contrac- tors, Durkin & Laas, and his state ments to board members bear this out.
 Some members of the board can't quite grasp the financial status of the school project and think that the city will find itself in lawsuits to collect extra moneys from the bonding com pany which was surety for the con- tractors.
 And Col. Elmer H. Ravens, presi= dent of the board of education and the man who has attended to the de- tails. of the new high school work, positively and absolutely refuses to be interviewed on the matter. He was told today by a reporter that the pub lie would like to be strengthened out on a few points. The colonel made this statement:
 "I will not be interviewed by you on the high schook''
 According to the records in the off, fee of the board of education. Dur kin & Laas took tn econtract to build the high school for .$31O,e5o. At first the firm was to be paid by the ''b1ock system payments being made as cer- tain parts of the job were completed In this manner, s141.4s5 was paid to klaa=4eontFactors.

The special was routed from Boston around by way of Poug1keepsfe and was dinicuIt to locate. Eventually. however, word came that all was well and that tho game would start on time.
 The PhiYfiess, once more in their white home uniforms. were on their own grounds today and got rousing cheer of welcome from t1ne crowded bleachera The local fans fully he- 1ieved that Alexander would turn back the invaders and that some of s.Gavvys' Cravafh's long hits would develop home runs today.
