 In any event Lappia was seen dash
 ing out of the cafe with Anderson, brandishing his twisters in the air, hot on his trail Anderson called ! on Officers Marine and David for as- sistance. Constabl David made an intellectual attempt to catch the flee ing Italian but the young man drop ped to his hands and knees as the
 officer was ready to corral him and as a result the policeman tumbled over his prostrate form. Lappia i made a quick recovery and disap-
 peared in the darkness a few minutes
 later.

 row, it is said they decided that their brother -officer-to-be was perhaps as
 much at fault as his opponent. No arrests were made. TrumbulI Help At Work. The plant of the Trumbull Electric Manufacturing company was operat- ing as usual today and all hands were 1 at work. At the factory it was re- ported that the men, with few excep- l tions, were satisfied with the offer made by the company and the mat ter of calling a strike would be held in abeyance, at least until the em- ployers have an opportunity to prove their sincerity.
