Foxes Take French Leave

A pair of foxes, owned by Lath- am Avery, the son of Mr and Mrs. Ira s. Avery, of Groton, has for some time been astray and at different times peo- pie have been able to get a glimpse of one of them darting into shelter. But to Latham Avery, for whom they have gained considerable publicity. they are lost forever The pair was first bought by E. W. White of Grot- on, who got them from trapper in North Stonington. They were eaged at the Avery home and later becom- ing less timid were allowed to run about the yard. At present they are little more than six months of age and being so young it was thought that there was possible chance of tanning them. Due to the pair of young foxes, Master Avery has been pictured in the colored section of two large papers with his pets. Having once gained freedom they began to roam about until finally they did not return to their home.

CHAMPION MEAN THIEF STEALS
 WOLF DEN D. A. R. TABLET
l (Speeial to The Bullati


 Putnam July 2o.-The bronze tablet placed at the entrance to the historic Wolf Den in Pomfret two years ago by Elizabeth Porter Putnam Chapter, D. A. R., has disappeared. The fact that the tablet is missing has been reported to the local chapter ana the state pe- lice have been notified. The tablet cost about $300 and was presented to Put nam D. A. R. Chapter by the Colonel Daniel Putnam Association. The tablet is 2x1 1-2 feet and marks the spot where General Israel Putnam killed the wolf that was destroying the farmers sheep The only theory advanced is that the tablet has been stolen but it is hard to conceive of a person being so de- prayed as to commit an act of this kind. It may have been an act of pure vandal- ism, theft by souvenir hunters or by someone who wished to sell the metal, which would be worth fifty dollars. The tablet was .leaded and ceTnented into the rock that forms 8 part of the wolf den and 1t must have taken the thief some time to separate it from it's base.

Business cares were cast aside and baseball, q shore dinner and an even ing of dancing predominated at the out ing Of the Norwich Chamber of Com merce outing held on Thursday after noon at Happyiand Park at Poquetanuck drawbridge. The threatening weather did not keep down the attendance nor did the showers late in the afternoon dampen the spirits Of those bent Oh a good time. Fully fifty automobiles were parked in the grove at Happyland in Which came close to two hundred mem bers of the Chamber and Norwich Ro- tary with Friend Wife and other friends
 The opening event of the afternoon was the ball game between the Chamber team and the Rotary club which was won by the Rotarians Il to B. This game was the first of a series of. three games for the Carroll cup and the Ro- tarians now have stfanglehold on the coveted trophy which will be hard for the Chamber team to break. The game provided many thrills. laughs and on the whole was productive of much good baseball and real wholesome fun for the Rotarlans but while they "grinned and bore it'' the Chamber players were somewhat disappointed In fact they are so dissatisfied with the result that they immediately hurled another chal- lenge for a game next week.
 The Chamber boys started off strong | in the first inning and through a cou- pie of hits and an error, they pushed | over one run. The Rotafians in their 1 turn at bat in that inning scored two runs. These runs were due largely te 1 the cratic playing of the Chamber oi 1 Commerce, although several hits alsc assisted them around the bases.
 There was no scoring in the secend inning, by either team but in the third l stanza the Chamber of Commerce made 1 their last stand, with the result that b! | several hits two runs were chalked up | The Rotarians were equal to the occa sion and in their turn at the ba pounded over two runs. For the re maining three innings the Chamber wa held poweflsss although they had mel on first several times but they eithe 1 died there or they took long chances Il

 The Rotarians however kept up thei I attack and in the fourth frame put ove one run and in the fifth ming started

MOST MOTOR VEHICLE
 THEFTS IN NEW HAVEN

According to a record just made public. New Haven led the state in motor vehicle thefts for 1921, almost hundred machines estimated to have a value of $1s5.0o disappearing there in that manner. Several other cars that vanished from New Haven were subsequently, found to have been burn
 ed in wholesale lots near quarry in North Branford, according to 8 repre- sentative of the Underwriters detec- tive agency. The fact that several of the important trunk line highways, including the main lines from Boston to New York and New York to Prov idence. converge in New Haven, was largely responsible, it is believed, for the large number reported from there.
