ION THE FIRE STILL
 HEARD BY PATRONS
Injunction Fails to Close Restau. rant Near Rival Lunch Room

Although Judge Frank D, Haines in the superior court yesterday after noon granted a temporary injunction restraining Samuel Pyros of this city from engaging in the restaurant busi- ness in New Britain until September, 1923, the Laurel Lunch and restau- rant at the corner of Main and Myrtle streets is st..;.; open to the public,
 The injunction was obtained by At- torney Irving l. Rachlin who is conn- scl for Peter Rappas, Gus Morris of New Haven and Otis Scouris of New Britain, owners of the Presto Lunch at the corner of Main and Commer- cial streets. The above named men have named Pyros and his wife de- fendants in an action for Sl0,000 and the suit is returnable in the superior court at Hartford on the first Tuesday in May. Attorney David l.. Nair is counsel for the defendants.
 Paid S2O,0O0 for L,Inchroom.
 The plaintiffs allege in the com plaint that they purchased the Presto Lunch from Pyros on May II, 1921, for which s2o.ooo was paid. Pyros, it is claimed, agreed to remain out of the lunch and restaurant business in this city until September, I923.
 It is further alleged that on Jan- uary 23 1923, the Laurel Lunch & Restaurant Co.,, now doing business at Main and Commercial streets was or garized. The new lunchroom is with in a distance of 135 feet of the Presto Lunch on the opposite side of the street. Among the shareholders is Charlotte Pyros, wife of the defend ant.
 Herman Belkin is president of the new Laurel Lunch & Restaurant; A. J. Careb of eos East Main street is secretary and treasurer and Mrs. Py- ros is vice-president. The firm con- ducting the business opened with an authorized capital stock of s6.000 divided among three shareholders, namely the officers of the concern.
 The name of Samuel Pyros is not mentioned in any way with the new firm, although his wife's name is. It is because of this reason that the place is still open for business, At torney Nair states.

GOES 75 MILES AT SPEED
 OF 25O MILES PER HOUR
Army Air Service Establishes An other Record in Nogales to
 Fort Bliss Trip.

Washington, March 24.---Anothel record for speed has been established by the army air service according to an official report today by the war department.
 The new high mark was made by Major Leo c. Heffernan ,on a recent flight from Nogales, Ariz., to Fort Bliss, Tex. The distance of 75 miles from Columbus. N. M, to the Texas post was covered in IS minutes at an average speed of 25o miles an hour.
 Major Heffernan piloted DH-4 B airplane and was accompanied by Sergeant Jensen as an official ob- server.
 The official reports of the flight said the aviators flew the machine in a binding sand storm and with the air saturated with sand to a height of 5000 feet. Efforts to climb above the sand made by Major lief fernan were unavailing. the report said, because of the high velocity of the wind and the shortness of the distance from Fort Bliss.
