 STAMFORD DUCKS DRUNK
Police Emptcy Beverage Into Brook In Which Fowl Were Disport-
 ing Themselves

Stratford, Conn, June %. LP,- Ducks owned by Dave Lem. pro- prictor of q laundry at Stratford center, are acting today like folks who have begun to realize that the morning after" is not as pleasant as the night before" The ducks are suffering from hang over"
 The disconsolate appearance Of the ducks, their unsteady rolling wobbIe and the feeble "Quack, Quack.' which they utter are due to the fact that the Stratford police authorities chose Tanners Brook, which runs near the laundry, as the place in which to destroy the con- tents of fifty beer kegs, seized early yesterday en route through Stratford for New York.
 After Hugo Sauerey of 1S46 De- catur street, Brooklyn. \. Y, had bsen fined $e00 and costs for trans porting the beer, Judge Henry liar ford in court yesterday issued an order for the destruction of the con- traband.
 When police received the order they decided that the best way 10 destroy the beer would be by pour ing it into Tanners Brook.
