Short Court Session. But three cases were heard by Judge Griswold in the town court last evening. A large number of people crowded into the court room expect ing to be entertained by the Henry Sutton case.
 Sutton was charged with assault but his case was nolled by Judge Gris- wold. He was given a warning by Prosecutor C. F. Lewis, however against posing as an officer of the law in Berlin. The prosecutor considered such men as Sutton pest, he said
 Carl o. Boomquist of Hartford a motor vehicle while under the in- huence of intoxicating liquor. He was given the minimum fine of $100 by Judge Griswold, with $50 remitted.
 Blocmquist told of the affair, which occurred last Friday evening when Sutton, with no authority placed him under arrest and took him to the New Britain police Headquarters. He also told of Sutton having struck him. 1

The boy | was thrown off the wheel but not seriously hurt The doctor also ex- plained that he had offered, at the time of the accident to pay for any damages which had been incurred by his striking the wheel but that the boy disappeared.
 First Carload of Pipe Here.
 The first carload of iron pipes for the Warrington fire district arrived in town yesterday and some of / the ripes have already been taken from the local freight yards to Berlin street
 A member of the district committee stated this morning that three more carloads are on the way. The con- struction work will start in Berlin on August '. The Earl Curtiss com pany of Bristol is in charge.
 About Two Year Terms.
 Within the past few days there has been some discussion in regards to the two year term project for the local officers which was brought be- fore a special town meeting following the caucus of last fall. Because the meeting came after the caucus the was downed blythe local voters.
 It was stated at that time, however, that the project would be brought be- fore another meeting in the summer of f922 and before the caucus was held. lt
 There does not seem to be much f expressed at the idea of ,lecting officers for a term of two years beginning with the fall of this , year. If this is done Berlin people will only have elections every other z ,ear and not each year. z
 This is due to the fact that both he state and local elections are held f his year and inasmuch as the state elections are every two years and if z he townspeople decided to have local lections every two years there would ,e no elections next year.
 If the project had been voted on ast year-there would be an election I n Berlin each year. One for the state $ nd the other for the town officers.
