 Most of the buses left the end of the line fairly well filled, but not quite as good headway was maintain ed as usual, and the status of pas sengers along the line who might want to ride, and who did not have membership tickets. which must be shown on entering the bus, was problematica1. All buses had substi- tuted commercial markers for the F. S. license plates.
 On Barnum avenue between Main street, Stratford. and city line. five buses were noted idle, parked in pri- vate yards along the thoroughfare. Early this morning a police officer was stationed at the terminal of the Barnum-State street line at the idgeport-Stratford line, taking ac- count of buses operating without the J. markers. and another police off, Ger was on the corner of Barnum and l Seaview avenue, evidently keeping a | check on the buses on the Iranistan- Remin gton line.

Many people took trolley rides this morning that have not patronized the yellow cars since the trolleys went on their mem orabe vacation a little over year ago.
 On the Paradise Green line today the entire reliance of the men was dependent upon the successful opera ton of the "club plan.''
