SOUTH CHURCH MOVIES
 MAY END ON DECEMBER 1
Dr. Hill Fears Shows May Re Dis continued Because of Distrib-
 utors' Attitude.

A possibility exists that there will be no more moving picture shows in the South Congregational church after December 1, according to Rev Dr. George W. C. Hill, pastor of that church.
 Dr. Hill said that everything is now contingent on the distributors He said that should they adhere strictly to their decision not to sign any more contracts for Connecticut after December l, the shows must be discontinued. The church, Dr. Hill added. has contracted for films enough 10 continue the shows until that date.
 The pastor was not so much con- cerned over the tax itself as over the stand taken by the distributors in the matter. He said that the church would not suffer because of the tax. especially since none but second run pictures are presented, the tax as a result falling on the shoulders of the first to purchase the films in the state.

 Need of Stcnographer- Clerk
 There was a discussion as to the appointment of clerk. It was the opinion of some commissioners clerk should be engaged who was also a stcnographer, so a verbatim report of every hearing would be available for use In the event of an appeal to court. Members of the board expressed a feeling such a report might be an important part of the city's case, being indicative of how the boards decision was arrived at There was also a proposal that both a clerk and stenographer be engaged for the board.

HUMAN BONES ARE
 TAKEN FROM RUINS
Believe That Hartford Man Was
 Burned to Death

Willimantic, Conn.,. Sept. 80 Pl-- Examination of bone fragments found in the ruins of the barn of Brownie Fledziewsky. at Mansfield City, by state officer, brought from pr. r. B. Converse. of West Willing ton, an opinion that they were hu- man bones and not those from an animal. The doctor thought a frag- ment was from an underjaw, an- other from rib, and other pieces from other parts of the anatomy.
 Members of the Fledziewski fam fly who again dug into the ashes of the barn found a watch case, q knife case and some other bits which came from a mans clothing. This seemed to confirm the opinion held that Bonislaw Wakalaw. who was known as William Michael, was in the barn when 1t burned Sunday night.
 The family say that the man smoked almost constantly, that he had the habit of letting his pipe go out and then lighting It, dropping the matches whether out or not. Sun day night he left for Hartford about 9. At the time the barn was locked up. It began to rain later and 1t is thought Michael returned and made his way into the barn, not wishing to awaken the family with whom he had visited from Saturday.
 It Is recalled that when the fire was discovered the barn door was open. Michael may have been smoking and set the hay afire.
 He was a veteran of the World War, serving with the Polish army. He left a wife and a son and daugh- ter Tn Poland when he came here after the war. His wife has since died. Latterly he was employed in Hartford by the Parkville Coal con- pany, He has not been seen nor has he called for clothing he had at a shop here.
