WESTERLY

The greater part of the session of the Westerly town council Monday morn ing was taken up with discussion of the drainage of the property on George street, which has been under consider ation for the past year.
 The conditions there were talked over by the members of the council Charles J. Butler, chairman of the highway com mission, Thomas Mckenzie civil en- gineer, Dr. Samuel c. Webster, health officer of the town of Westerly and Faruuahaf Smith, one of the property owners on George street. " '. pr. Webster opened the discussion by telling of the conditions which exist in that locality where cesspools are over flowing due to the lack of proper drain- age of surface water. Within 24 hours after these cesspools have been clean ed out they i'll up again with water. He told of two plans which had been made to remedy the conditions. One plan form u4ated by MT. Mckenzie called for the placing of an under drain beneath the sewerage pipe and that suggested by MT Butler and property owners for i'm mediate relief was the placing Of stone drain in the gutter to carry the surface water to the new School street drain Dr. Webster spoke in favor of the tenn porary drain as he said the conditions are deplorable there and immediate re- lief should be given.
 FarQuahar Smith was of the opinion that an eight-foot drain was out of the question as the people cannot af- ford to pay for ft. Mr. Butler said he had been over the ground and there is need of immediate relief
 MT. Mckenzie was called to the coun- cil chamber and said that the logical solution of the problem was to install the sewerage system on that street and place

6-inch pipe below the sewer. This would drain the cellar as well as the yards on the street -'..
 Dr. Webster argued that the School street drain was already a sewerage system. He believed that it would do no harm to run in a little more sew craze until. the sewerage system was in operation and then these temporary pipes could be cut off.
 Chairman Butler of the highway commission spoke in favor of tho un- der drain. Although the sewerage is not connected the drain can be used for time to take care of the surface water as well as the cesspools. :
 The council finally referred the matter to the highway commissioners and MT. Mckenzie to. get estimates of the cost of installing the sewerage system with the under drainage on George street and report at . later ses- sion of the council. . .-
 letter was read from George Rae of School street which stated that the drain in the rear of his property, which had been used by the town, had eaved in and that as an excessive amount of service water had been turned into it he had been deprived of the use of his garden. The council referred the mat ter to the highway commissioners.
 The resignation of Arthur NJ. Cot trell from the school connnFtee was accepted and Edgar P. Maxson was appointed to fill the vacancy. Mir. Cottrell's term will expire next Nc. vember. MT Cottrell was elected tc the committee in 11s to i'll the un- expired term of the late Howard Nor gan, M D.

Wil1inAntic, ApEn 4.-In the toughest game of the season the Emeralds evened up their series with the Connecticut Mirs five of Dantelson in the Valley street armcry Monday night by the score of 4s to 20 although only 14 fouls were called by Referee Kelley, they were all from violation of the rules, and time was taken out repeatedly to allow players to recu- perate. The smallest crowd of the sea- son witnessed the game and the result was never in doubt after the first few minutes of play, the Emeralds taking the lead and holding it throughout
 Higgins, Larsen and Alexander were the Emeralds stars, the first mentioned making eight field baskets and two from the foul line, Larsen seven and Alexan- der five. Larsen made one of his shots over his head with an opposing player on his back, without looking at the basket.
 Reddy, Elliott and Mills shot three field baskets apiece for Danielson. while the last two mentioned made two extra points on fouls. Two of Reddy's baskets wero of sensational order.
 Connecticut Mills had Allison and Kim ney of Milbury, Mass. playing the guard positions, and the crowd did not take very kindly to their style of play, espe- ciaIly that of Allison. Kinney made one sensational one-hand shot out of more than a dozen tries. Score at the end of the first half, 16 to in the Emeralds' favor.
