COLLEGE PREPARES FOR
 OPENING NEXT MONDOY.
Work of Getting Dornitories and Re-
 factory Has Started.

The work of getting the Connecti- cut college dormitories and refectory in readiness for the opening on Sept. 25, has been started. The dining hall chef and his wife. who had charge of Thames hall last year. are already To- cated at the refectory, which they are cleaning and preparing for serving the first meal for this term. Many of the instructors. although occasional visitors at the college, do ont ex- pect to take up their residence at Thames hall until the actual opening.
 On Sept. 20 the entrance examina- tions will be held, and Monday and Tuesday following the time will be devoted to the registration of stu dents. known as non residents.
 It is anticipated that a large part of the class for this year will be made up of nonresident students with a good percentage of students enroll ed as special or students who will not take a full academic course.
 Improvements are being made at the institution by placing an iron rail at the flight of stone steps at the Mohegan avenue entrance to Thames hall which seems a necessity, espe- cially during the winter and the n1ak- ing of the music studios sound proof.
 The studios will be located in the basement of Blackstone house. Dur ing last term the studios were located in first floor rooms of Plant house, but on account of the need of every avail able room for the housing of the resident students it was decided to place the studios in the basement or the dormitory. This change will be of great benefit as the studios were the sound was easily heard through out the entire building, students were oftentimes annoyed. especially during study hours.

Rutland Police Need Patrol Auto.

That Rutland needs police patrol am
bulance is the conclusion reached by
Roger s. Pike, who, after studying con-
ditions of the department for a year
has just made his annual report as COM
missioner of public safety in which the
ambulance is his chief recommendation.
On this point he writes as follows: "The
city is annually paying at least $500 for
hack service, and during the winter
months this service is very poor, espe-
cially after $3.50 in the evening. At a
recent call for police assistance, two pa
trolmen left the police station and went
to the stable and helped hitch up horses
for hack, in order to answer call
The cost of such patrol wagon full
equipped should not exceed $500, and
this would really be paying invest
ment for the city, as it would be in use
"a hours of the day for police work or
for ambulance work, which would bring
a revenue to the city of several hundred
dollars each year. In addition to this,
it would enable the department to an
swer much more quickly the calls for
police assistance which come from parts
of the city outside of the business dis
trict. These calls are becoming more and
more frequent, and it is practically i'm
possible to do very much with them, ow-
ing to the fact that patrolman has to
search for a hack when a call comes
in"
Mr.. Pike also recommends the engage
ment of another permanent fireman as
there is now a shortage of men at meal
times on days when the men are hav-
ing their half days off.
Mr.. Pike considers that the combina-
ton chemical motor truck, new this
year, has materially added to the eff.
cheney of the fire department. Another
improvement of the year consisted of
renewing the batteries at station l, /
which puts them in good condition for
about five years. Mr.. Pike hopes to
see few new fire alarm boxes installed
this year.
