 Bowling Scores-PIainyillc Briefs. \ Superintendent William J. Bryan of l the New Britain division of the Con- 1 necticut Co. has established q new trolley station at Hamiin street. This is an answer to a petition signed by a large number of the patrons in this l section and sent in to the offices of : the company last June. There are about 75 people who use the trolleys, l living in this section and for q long 1 time they have been agitating for D stopping station at the street. For time, it seemed that no action would ] be taken on the request but when the matter was called to MT. Bryan's attention, he lost little time in hay- ing the pole painted white. The pa irons of the trolleys who were inter- ested in the matter wish to show pub | icly their appreciation of the move on the part of the new superinten- dent.

 Church Fence Going Up No new developments were report ed today on the protest of Joseph Neri against the placing Of the Bap- tist church fence on the sidewalk line on East Main street workmen were preparing to erect the posts in the holes which were dug ysterday and although First Selectman William J. Johnson was appealed to yesterday and he promised to interview those in power over the project, the result Of his conference with them was not known at an early hour today Mir. Neri stated today that he does not object to the erection Of the fence, because he knowns that the church so- ciety has good reasons for it, but lie does object to the placing of the first pole on a line with the sidewalk in front Of the church property. This will place the fence out about four feet further than the front of his property and will not only spoil the ts. e sx. NF ion, but will also make travelling at night dangerous. It is expected that the members of tho church society will order the fence placed further back.
 The church society states that con- siderable annoyance has been caused by persons using the church yard for d passageway from the rear of the 1 Ncri property and the fence will be ! built on one side and in the rear 10 ] stop the practice. The removal Of the . first pole near the street back about | four feet would not interfere in any ! way with the plans Of the society. II . is not known if the recent actions of the town plan commission on the establishment of a building line on . this street will interfere in any way with the plans Of the church in build . ing the fence However. the matter is considered a trivial one and those 1 interested hope that an amicable set tiement will bc reached.
