pital - Legion Meeting Tonight
 Boy Has Fractured Skull
 What is thought to be the heaviest
 weekend traffic Plainville has yet
 experienced crowded the highways
 about the town Saturday night and
 all day yesterday and kept Central
 square in such clogged condition
 that motor vehicles and pedestrians
 were barely able to make progress
 there. The result Of this jam has been further complaints against the
 new trolley stop at the head Of
 Whiting street, this being blamed by many for the slowncss of the traffic lanes.
 It is claimed that the no parking
 regulation in effect about the troll ley stop was not enforced and that
 automobiles were stopped in the for
 biiden zones for long periods. so
 that when the New Britain Plain vile trolleys came in and stopped at their new station it was impossible for the cars going through the cen
 ter to continue on their way, there
 being not enough space beneath the
 parked autos and the trolley car.
 This meant long lines of cars held
 up, and these at times are said to
 have extended as far as Broad street
 on the Southington road. What pro-
 GresS was made was slow. jerky, and uncertain, eliciting much profanity
 and caustic criticism from the driv- CTS. Opponents Of the new car stop are satisfied that this turmoil dur
 ing rush periods gives them anoth- CT valid argument, but it is ad- mitted that the situation would be essed by an attempt to enforce the no parking rule.

 "Y" Wins Lose Game The Plainville Y. NJ. c, A. Juniors played their worst ball Of the sea son Saturday afternoon and were barely able to win a 6-5 decision from the tail-eud kensington team
 in a county league game played on tthe high school diamond. The home team ran bases in wretched fashion and threw away at least five runs by dumbness on the paths. but snapped out of it in the sixth and took what looked to be a safe lead. The cellar champs fought back however, and wele stopped only by double plays | in the sixth and seventh and came within one run of tying the score in the eighth.
 It was the final game on the league schedule. There still remain three postponed games to play off,
 one each with Highland park, Ken sington. and Orford Soap.
