The Bridgeport times and evening farmer., 1922-04-10

haps there will be some resignations ana then perhaps not. It lfas been rumored that there would, but others neneVe the saintIy seven love their Jops so well that they will hang on long as there is a possible chance of sticking.
 In the meantime it is not to be for gotten that the name of the Town manager is R. H. Hunter. At least un- tomorrow
 The All Stars got away to a. flying; opening the season with d double header. The Avon Park team and Seymour Wells Neversweats were the victims, and 'tis said the latter lived up to their billing. The games were played on the Paradise Lawn grounds the new lay out that was put into commission the middle of last sum mer.
 Some of he concrete road laying equipment is beginning to assemble on each side of Washington bridge, indicating an early beginning on the State rOadwork to extend from Devon to the bridge on the east side, and from the bridge to East Broa dway, Stratford, on the west side. Let the good work go on.
 Then too the "Rudder club met in its second session Saturday night The condemnation proceedings took place in Red Mems hall and no Pipe Of Peace was in evidende. The Red Men must have locked all the closets before they turn the hall over for the fee of s2O which they were to re celVe. It is rumOred that there was not that much money left in the crowd af ter the supper damages had been taken care of, and that the Red Men were glad to get $15 for the use Of the building. Thanks for the use Of the hau.''
 Fond rooters for the "Rudder club dubbed by some the ''Rotter club" ex- pected 150, and had guaranteed, 'tis sad, that number at 50 cents per appetite to those who arranged the very tempting supper. However, even with few invited hostiIes, the affair s1mmered down just about the size of the original gathering of q week a go and somewhat less than half the ex- pected turn out. Somebody had to make up the difference and it must have hurt.
 One thing did crop up at the meet Ing that might be twisted around to denote progress. It was virtually ad- mitted that the purpose of the organ iza1on was to help the State RepubIi- can machine make a bum out of the charter At that you can't blame some IoIks Tor wanting their jobs back. Politics get to be much of a trade with some people as the plumbing or carpenter trades, and when they get ou1 or a political job, they don't know where to turn. when they realize that they have got to change their tactics oHu WOTk TOT a living.
 AS near as anyone can tell about the only decided thing the ''Rudder 1 club will accomplish will be to cause a lot of bitterness in Stratford and make a lot of enemies that will only too sadly be of lasting propor- rlons Much damage along these lines IS already noticeable, and engaging Tn personalities about persons whose political ideas happen to be different when these same persons are long long away, is not exactly the stuff that brings in medals for bravery Rather is brings on civil suits at the County court house. One such sult rom Stratford, although, not po- Htical in nature, is already before the courts.
 Will the council flirt with contempt of court, or will the council be satis- fled to wait a few days and let Judge view the Conine- Hunter sparring match in quietude? It is rather to be hoped, and expected, that there will be enough conservatives even though they be anti-Hunter to allow the court proceedings to have the right away. especially since they were started by one man who is rabfdIy anti-Hunter. and who came out in the open the matter, which is more than some of the early settlers can say.
 Here is something red hot off the wire statements that are beng made to the effect that at one time admitted R. H. Hunter was not the proper man for the managers position, are absolutely false, and without foundation. I never made any such statement" This from Donald Sammis, Councilman from the Second district ought to spike a head liner among the many yarns that are going the rounds.
 Some. folks in stratford make us think of the hero of George Ade's fla ble in yesterdays papers.
 We'll, there is something to be thank full for on blue Monday. We have one s:cady reader. even if he doesn't always agree with Here's the latest for which We are much oblig- ed:
 ''The only satisfaction possible. ap- parently will be to wait the time limit and start a second recall. Re peat the operation a third time and then, when election rolls around again, try and pick a council that will do the hurdles to suit the rooters."
 Kid, you're a wonder.

 What We want is q popular coun- Gil. One that is so afraid of their popularity that they will tumble with their hats and stand on one foot and scratch the other shin, when any of the 'rooters'' stare a little longer or harder at them than usual,
 One that will roll over on their col lective backs and stick their co1lec- tive feet into the air we the root ~ef' snap their whips.
 What we want is a council that will let somebody else run the town I ask you. ain't they the peoples servants?
 This having mind of your own. when you've got whole town full of minds that you might just as well have, is false economy.
 You know the kind.
 I wonder can't We get a council that will say. "YaS. 'sah, vas 'sah guess you is right. Yas 'sah. vas 'sah, I will Thank you 'sah." Go to it, kid. you won't have any trouble to find 'em.
