GARBAGE QUESTION
 STILL UNSETTLED Dr. GrisEold Does Not Know
 Whether PaZ Can Collect 'NOT 2 FOR DISCUSSION"
All Set for Community Doings-Rev. May Lord Pleasantly Surprised East Berlin Fire District Not Fired With Enthusiasm.

T don't know" was all that Dr.
 Roger M. Griswold, health officer of
 Berlin, had to say today when he
 was asked whether or not John Paz
 would be allowed to cart garbage
 from New Britain to his farm in
 kensington. Its not a matter for
 discussion at the present time, any, way" he added, stating that it would be settled at some future time.
 Thiss tatement from the doctor doesn't throw any more light on the question than has shone on that sub- day, just before the meeting of the board of health in New Britain, Dr. Griswold called Dr. Pullen, New Britain's superintendent of health, on the telephone and stated that it would be proper for John Paz. an applicant, to bring garbage from New Britain to his farm in the lower end of Ken sington.i
 The board took action in keeping with this statement and awarded the contract, subject to approval of the common council, for collecting gar bage in the third district of the Hard ware City to Paz. Just before the session of the common council on Wednesday of this week, Dr. Pullen, in order to make certain of Dr. Gris- Wolds stand on the matter, called him on the telephone and this time 1t was stated that the doctor was not sure whether or not Paz would be allowed 10 do the work and bring the refuse through Kensington.
 Consequently the council accented the amended report of the health board, to the effect that Paz would be awarded the contract if the road were clear in Berlin. Otherwise the contract would go to the men in charge of the first and second dis trict.
 Dr. Griswold stated today that he | had not changed his mind and the | hangs fire until some deci- | sion is reached. It is known that several residents of Kensington are opposed to the bringing of garbage through the village streets, but wheth- CT or not Dr. Griswold is influenced by these opinions is not known.
 It is q certainty that the New Britain board of health would like to know Berlin's stand on the mat Ter. Two other applicants for the position from Berlin were reflected because of the fact that the health officer would not approve of them.

Hazel Damn With BeLaSco

David Belasco, working as Is
his wont in silent ways his won
ders to perform, has added an
other star to his long and impos-
ing list.
Hazel Dawn is the new addi-
ton to the charmed circle that al
ready includes David Warfield,
Frances Starr, Lenore Uric and
for the time being. Fay Banter,
and she will make her appearance
under the new management early
next season in a play yet to be
announced. It is possible Mr..
Belasco may get round to a try
out production in the spring for
Miss Dawn, but it seems scarcely
likely at present as he is under
stood to be busy at present with
a play for Frances Starr.
Miss Dawn, though best known
for her work in musical comedies,
Is no novice to the dramatic stage.
She has played in several dramas
for A. H. Woods and last sum-
mer she had the leading role in
THE Clean Up" when William
A. Brady tested the merits of
that work.
She was last seen here with
George Marshall's company at the
BelaSco.

AS has been the custom for the
last eighteen years, the commit.

the most beautiful lady who at.
tended the ball. When 1t came
to decide who was to be presented
with the cup the dancers were
at the height Of their enthusiasm
calling for encore after encore
and evidently not in the mood for
the delay which would be caused
by the contest. When an an
nouncement was made that the
cup was about to be presented,
someone cried out:
"Give it to Jan CARRIER and his
band"
The cry was taken up from all
sides of the hall, and soon, with
the unanimous approval Of the
big crowd, the orchestra was in

RAMS HEAD CAST
OFFERS THREE
PLAYLETS

Going abroad? Then leave
Lithuania out Of your trip. The
folks take things too seriously.
Then they come to America, get
into domestic employ, and oon-
tinue taking things. The truth
about Lithuania was revealed by
the Rams Head Players in their
intimate theater last night when
program Of three one-act plays
was presented.
"Lithuania," by Rupert Brooke,
was powerfully presented and
warmly received. It fairly oozed
with atmosphere. The off-stage
murder, which employed a typi-
cal Lithuanian Ratchet, was abso-
lutely disastrous to sensitive souls.
The moral was that rich men,
stopping overnight at strange
huts, should not flaunt their
wealth in the pinched faces of
the starving. Leona Roberts,
Josephine Hutchinson and John
Hawkshaw gave the playlet life.
"A Door Should Be Open or
Smut" a proverb in one act by
Alfred de Mpssett, was situa-
ton developed by smart talk be-
tween Caroline Peter and Walter
w. Beck. Talky, but fairly en-.
tertaining.
James Reynolds offering. "Eliz.
abeth Tudor gave the low-down
on who really conquered the Span
ish Armada. Drake came in for
a drubbing. Anne Ives was ex-
cellent as Queen Elizabeth. Beck
showed up again as Sir Francis
Drake, grave and repressed. Rob
ert Bell and Josephine Hutchin-
son featured their roles by max
ing flouncing exits and entrances.
Thomas McGlynn appeared in
minor role. He's new in the cast
"a son of Frank McGlynn. whose
Abraham Lincoln" is remem-
bered. Thomas goes to school
here.
The settings and costuming were
ocular treats and were splendidly
adapted to the small stage.-J. r.
