Will Stop Trolleys
 for July 4 Parade

Preparations for the universal ser vice parade to be held in this city on Independence Fay are growing apace. Yesterday promises were received from Charles H. Chapman, general manager of the Connecticut Co, Bridgeport division, that all cars will be cleared. from the line of march while the parade is moving. Capt Charles Wheeler, in charge of the po- lice traffic squad, also assured the committee that Lis men would keep vehicular traffic from the street.
 Nearly always it has been found that laxity permits big trolley cars to intercept processions, causing long delays of the marching columns. As this was particularly true of Decora- ton Day when cars were even moving on Park avenue. almost the end of the parade length to the park, and as such an occurrence in this instance will cause unusual trouble because of the great number of men in line and the necessity for all to extend their ranks, it is particularly hoped by officers in charge of the line of march that the promises given are made good in this particular instance. It will mean that trolley and jitney service on Main and State streets will be suspended for period of approxi- mately three hours.

Leah Baird, the popular star of the silent drama made personal visit to the Plaza theatre yesterday afternoon and evening and it looked as if every ne in Bridgeport paid a personal visit to the theatre to see her there.
 Miss Baird portrays the role of Helen Hutchinson in Ivan Abramson's s justly famous screen play entitled "One Law for Both.' which is the Plaza's main attraction this week and it was quite a novel stunt to have the star appear in person as she did. Not only that but the way it was put over, in the middle of the picture, immedi- ately following one of Miss Baird's strong scenes.
 The play is creating much comment locally because of it's delicate, al- though widely discussed theme-that of a common moral code for both sexes.
 A Sennett-Keystone comedy entitled Her Torpedoed Love-" in two acts, and "The Monomaniac," are also being shown with "One Law for Both.

Five pretty maidens went through a full repertoire of song, dance, harpis- try and instrumental music of more than the average depth.
 Lulu Coats and her Cracker-jacks offered one of the fastest dancing acts in Poais theatre for many months.
 Cole Russell and Davis character izing a waitress and two convicts re- leased from prison. put over success fully an act that will eclipse any of its kind.
