Overloaded Bus
 Many complaints were heard by peo- pie on Berlin street this morning when the new school bus which takes the children to the various schools came from East Berlin to Berlin and stopped at the top of Galpins hill to allow more children to get on Almost all seating space was taken when the bus arrived in Berlin, but many more boys and girls piled in lntil the aisle was filled with standing <5cholars, which makes it dangerous, it s claimed. From what could be learned this morning, the driver was to have returned to Berlin again for his regular Berlin load. Tbis he did not do, as it is presumed that his previous load was so large due to the act that the bus was several minutes
 ate and the children wanted to get to school as soon as possible. Many of the children themselves are dissatisfied with the new system of transportation and those in the Berlin street section of the town rather go on the trolley han to be late waiting for the bus. Basketball Tomorrow.
 The first basketball game of the season will be played at the Town Hall tomorrow night when the newly or ganized Berlin Town team will play he Independents of Meriden. Fol lowing the game dancing will be held with music to be furnished by Coy1e's orchestra.
