STATE REVERSES PROCEDURE IN
 FAITHS TRIAL

San Francisco, Jan. 1S-Taking a page from the book of the defense in the first trial, the state has reversed it's procedure in the second trial of Roscoe 'F,atty'' ArbuckIe and is fight ing to convict him of granddaughter on testimony which almost won the round comedian acquittal in his first trial.
 Swinging directly into medical tes- timony as soon as the death of Nlr- ginia Rappe had been estab ed in evidence the state sought t. show, through a medical report returned late in the first trial by Q commission of experts and hailed at the time as a crowning victory for the defense, that a medical condition existing in the organ examined by the experts. from the body of Miss Rappe. in no way contributed to the rupture of that or force which caused the rupture ana subsequent death of the motion pie ture actress was applied by Arbuckle aDd that this force was applied in the course of a felonious assault

REAL ESTATE BOARD MEMBERS
 DISCUSS TAXES

At meeting and dinner of the
 Bridgeport Real Estate Board held port was read or the question of whether the taxes arc paybale in ad- vance and if so from and to what date The committee reported that taxes
 were payable from April first to April first.
 It is not the intention of the board to bring any suit to test the validity of the special six mill tax. The board
 may bring a suit to determine legally the time covered by the annual tax payment.
 Seward B. Price, secretary of the Chamber of Commerce, addressed the
 board on the subject "Zoning." This is a plan to create zones throIgho out the city and restrict their develop ment by private owners to certain classes of construction, the object be- ing to prevent the construction of garages and other undesirable build ings in strictly residential sections.
 The board went on record unani- mously in favor of the Zon1ng move ment, and President A. H. Hancock was authorized to appoint a committee to cooperate with the Chamber of Commerce in obtaining a special act from the next legislature empowering the city to put into operation zon- ing law.
 A member of the board discussed the sale by one of it's members of a plot of land at the corner of Beech wood and Colorado avenues to the Southern New England Telephone company.
 This land is to be utilized for the construction of a branch telephone exchange. This site was selected after a survey had been made by the American Telegraph & Telephone whose experts anticipate the growth of cities and purchase property now for future expansion. In the selection of the location the real estate experts of that company declared that within the next twen- ty-five years the corner of Beech wood and Colorado avenues would be the center of the most densely pop ulated section Of Bridgeport.
 It is evident that the company ex- perts look for extension of population north through the Stratfeld district and west in Fairfield.
 Walter M. Redf1eld, secretary of the board, read an interesting paper on code ethics, use of the copyright ed word, "realtor,'' and multiple list ing system now in use.

]. A. H. Robinson Defends Leader
 ship of Party

(Continued from Page One.) responsible for the Republican defeats in the fall elections In the leading cities of the state, and he stated that unless more careful tactics are adopt ed the Republicans would practically turn over control of the state to Democrats in the fall.
 Referring to the attacks on his claim to the town chairmanship, MT. Robinson said
 The whole thing Is silly and ab- surd because the action of the legal town and city convention embraced the election of a new chairman to MT. Leonard for very good and sufficient reasons. Personally, I cannot see why any one should want the thing for it's such a damn nuis- ance, demanding, as it does. such a great amount of time and trouble.
 Calls it Having.
 '1f MT. Leonard is really respon- sibte for the statements attributed to him by Hartford paper, I am afraid he has not yet quite recovered from his recent indiSpOsition. His talk seems more like the rawlings of diSordered mind

Picture and Fingerprints
 Not Those Of Piazza
 Sought For Three Years

On Dec. 2. 1918, Piazza stabbed and killed George Scarafaino, of 62 Lexington avenue. with whom he had formerly been engaged in part nershtp, in the meat business. The two men conducted a butcher shop at 62 Lexington avenue. and 1t was in this place that the killing occurred. The murder was witnessed by Scar afaino's wife and five year old daugh- ter, and is said to have resulted from Scarafaino's inability to pay Piazza a debt of s10 which he owed on the business.
 Since the time of the murder, local detectives have been close on PiazZa'S trail at several times, but the fugitive succeeded in e1uding them. At one time he escaped ar rest by two minutes in New York

Photographs and Bertillion meas urements of a man who was arrest cd yesterday in Bethlehem, Pa, and who was thought to be Calagora Pi- azzst, formerly of this city, alleged murderer of George Scarafaino, of 62 Lexington avenue, do not compare with Piazza's police Identification record in the local department. The case will be investigated however, and if the man who Is now being held in Bethlehem proves to be Piazza, he will be brought back 70 this city for trial
 The Bridgeport police last night re- ceived word from the Bethlehem au- thorities, that a man answering PiaZ- za's description had been arrested there as a fugitive from justice He was living in the Pennsylvania city under the name of "Biagi Valinda.' The man is still being held in Beth}e- hem without bail, until his correct is esta bl:shed.
