1 leader was hailed.
 For two years. Mir. Quigley re- ma'ned hopefully silent. but those who knew him best were confident that he was pointing towards anoth- CT term and it was not surprising that he should enter the primary against Mir. Curtis. He was desirous of further honor. to be sure, but he was anxious to square accounts with the man who unseated him. and in the latter purpose he was success ful but not until hundreds of reg istered republican voters had been divorced from the party in fact if not in name. The contest left bitter feeling and long before election day candidate could bank on consider abel republican support.
 Throughout this entire period of the an-Quigley-Curtis regimes, fiery. dynamic council member, elected term after term from the sixth ward, was coming to the front. He and Mr. Quigley often locked horns in the council chamber, and he clashed with Mir. Curtis, too. when the latter was republican whip. Angelo NJ. Paonessa. natural ized citizen, doughty and colorful. had long nourished a hope to be mayor. He never hesitated to speak out in the council. and he had the faculty of attracting the support of the so-called working class. ....
 The exact number or even an ap- propriate estimate. of the voters who gave him an outside chance in con- test with Mir. Quigley will probably never be known but he was elected in one of the most astounding up- sets recorded in New Britain's his- tory. He had strong backing in cer- tain quarters where the Curtis- Quigley fight had left its scars and his own party stood by him nobly. He served two terms and went out of office in a blaze of glory, his po- litical strength weakened but slight ly, and his personal popularity at a height that could bring only joy to any mans heart.
 Meanwhile, other New Britain men have gone far on the political straightaway but through state of- fees rather than local positions. Judge B. w. Alling was elected at- torney general and Senator Edward r. Hall was appointed to an im- portant office at the head of Con- necticut's financial system, while Ernest w. Christ and Richard Co., vert, through their service in the General Assembly. have also become prominent. yet the three-cheers-and- red-fire type of popularity tried in battle appears 10 have become ab- sorbed, according to the observers. by the group system of organization in which many lead with more equal division of power than was formerly wielded by the man at the helm.

RACKLIFFE OIL COMPANY
 GIVING AWAY TICKETS
 TO THELYCEUM THEATER
Commencing Saturday and for the Next TEN DAYS Patrons of the Racki2e Oil Co. Filling Stations will receive free tickets to the Lyceum Theater With Purchase of Five Gallons of "FRANKLIN N0-KNOCK" gaso- line.

1 There are no strings to this offer an admission ticket goes with each
 five gallons of gasoline. no limit to customer and the tickets are good Monday Tuesday. Thursday and Fri day Nights and all Matinees except ing Saturday and Sunday and will not expire until September first.
 During the past year there have been many changes in the gasoline industry. Until recently. all gasoline was refined by what is known as the 'skimming' Process. Today, the latest equipped and most up-to-dat refineries use what is known as the "CRACKED" Process.
 l Cracked gasoline is higher in qual- ity than skinned gasoline because it does not knock as much in a mo- tor car. There is less wear on a motor if it is not subjected to car bon or spark knocks. Today it is difficult to get 1OOGs cracked gaso- ! line and q premium must be paid i for it. Only about 25ce of gasoline refined today is cracked. A great | many of the refineries blending a little cracked gasoline with their skinned gas.
 Franklin NO-kNOCK Gasoline is a 1o0en cracked gas. It is handled l exclusively in this territory by the Rackliffe Oil Co. and is distributed to many Connecticut accounts and retailed at their two filling stations , conveniently located at Franklin Square and their more spacious filling station on the corner of East
 Main St. and Stanley St. for the same price that is paid for ordinary gas. No motorist should be satisfied with less than the best when it costs no more than other gas It is pos sible for the Rackliffe Oil Co. to of- ! fer Franklin NO-KNOCK Gas at the market price of ordinary gas. due to the fact that their large volume of business handled only by their own equipment and shipped into New Britain in tank car lots makes this possible.
 The increase in the number of satisfied patrons and volume of busi- ness and the confidence We have in our product has made it necessary to open up the new spacious station at East Main and Stanley Sts, and is forcing us to look around for suitable locations to erect new sta tions in this program of expansion This condition convinces ourselves that our product is right as well as our system Of merchandising. Try FRANKLIN NO-KNOCK" Gasoline al either of our conveniently located stations and be convinced yourself. -advt.

An arrangement for the purchase of ten thousand tickets to the Iyceum Theater was completed to- day between Mr. DeJack of the Lyceum and Mir. r. E. Rackliffe, Jr., of the Rackliffe Oil Co.,. who are the sole distributors of Franklin NO- KNOCK gasoline in New Britain and the surrounding territory, these tickets to be distributed to the pa- irons at the Rackliffe Oil Co.'S Filling Stations for the next ten days.
 Due to the fact that such large number of tickets were purchased the Lyceum Theater Mahagement made special price to the Rackliffe Oil Co.,, making it possible to have the tickets used as a special induce ment for patrons at the Rackliffe Oil Co.'S Filling Stations. located at Franklin Square and also at East Main Street, cor. Stanley Street, to try out the Franklin NO-KNOCk gasoline and by checking Up closely on the results obtained verify the many points in it's favor and prove the many statements made by the company as to its superiority over ordinary gas. Mr r. E. Rackliffe, Jr. said this morning that the tickets would be in the hands of the station managers early enough to take care of the patrons from sunup.
 One ticket will be given away to each customer making a purchase or five gallons of Franklin NO- KNOCK Gasoline, any number of tickets to customer depending upon the amount of the purchase. The Rackliffe Oil Co. always on the alert to grasp new idea to en- phasize their agressiveness in seek ing the trade of the motoring pub- llc. wasted no time in completing ;he purchase of the tickets when the 1.yceHm Theater was willing to name special price.
 The weather man has promised us very fine weather for the next few weeks and as this is all that the motoring public have been waiting for to start the summer touring sea son it is expected that thousands of cars will be brought out by the fine weather and the Rackliffe Oil Co. figure that this is the right time to remind the motoring public of the superior quality of Franklin NO- KNOCK Gasoline. The Filling Sta tons are conveniently located at Franklin Square and F. Main St. corner Stanley St., with the "NO- kNOCk' signs prominently dis played and everything arranged so that 1t Is very handy for the mo- torist 10 take advantage of this liberal offer.

HAHN COMPOSITION
 FROM WT|C STATION
Orchestral Suite to Be Broadcast
 Next Tuesday

An orchestral suite of five num- bers. written and orchestrated by George Hahn of this city, will have it's premier performance over the radio from station WTIC at Hartford next Tuesday at D. m. by the Traveler's Symphonic Ensemble. with Dana s. Merriman. musical di- rector of the radio station, conduct ing.
 So far as is known it will be the first time in the history of radio in this country that new suite for or chestra will have been given it's first public performance exclusively over the air.
 The title of the suite is ITO Child" and it is in five parts, the separate titles of which are Merry Dawn Beams From the Sky, "The Baby's Kiss" "Frolic in the Garden" Mama's Prayer" and The Riddles Parade"
 In keeping with the character of the titles, the music is light. Piano ., since somewhat revised. were played in Trinity Methodist church chapel recently.
 After examining the music, Direc- tor Merriman accepted the suite for performance by his organization, which is composed of widely known orchestra performers of Hartford. In order to make the orchestra complete in every detail a bassoon- ist and an oboeist from New York have been engaged for the perform ance. To the musical director goes for the suite.
 4 representative of station WTIC was present at the recent local com- posers' concert of the New Britain Musical club, where some of Mir. Hahn's works were performed. A favorable report upon the music. it is understood, was made at Hart ford
 Six of the composers orchestral arrangements were heard in this city at the Tabs minstrel show last winter, these of old-time songs long out of print. The fact that Mir. Hahn had made the arrangements was not known to the general public.
 In view of the thousands of radio receiving sets in New Britain homes, and the probable interest in New Britain and vicinity in the musical efforts of a local resident. large radio audience is likely to listen in Tuesday night upon the first radio performance of an original work written here.

able that . mink would appreciate stream crowded with lingering trout which are still secure in their belief that the hatchery foreman IS coming around to feed them at 6 o'clock. And a mink, when 1t gets started, is some little playmate for stream full of innocent trout.
 We spent the weekend in East Hampton at Lake Pocotopaug. Sum- day evening at about o'clock we went out after a mess of perch for Monday mornings breakfast. Mon- day morning for breakfast We had bacon and eggs. Somehow we were not so good. Our old friend, John Roach, was present but the striped backs weren't in the mood.
 About hundred yards away from lls was a boat containing a man and a woman. Both were inex- pert but enthusiastic anglers. As a johnny roach would take the cork under Mister and Missus would both scream slightly and heave. We saw q johnny roach thrown approxi- mately quarter of mile when they both heaved together. We had a lot of fun watching them until the Missus snaked out a sixteen inch pickerel and then We realized we weren't as smart as We thought we were. They caught few perch, An hA hor rI CT.
 Thursday morning our sleep was shattered by telephone call which turned out to be Fred Monier. hot on the quest of companion to go up to Riverton with him. He had information that fish were being caught up there and he was going to make it a point to find out. We couldn't go hut we hear Fred had great day up there.
 In our prowlings around last weekend We saw a lot of good looking brooks down Marlboro way. { Does anybody know anything about them? We've fished down Salem way and through Colchester but these brooks were new ones on us. They looked like wonderful trout water. with plenty of bank space to toss a Black Chat about in. Billy Rowe, night clerk at the Hotel Stanley to whom fishing is the principal joy of life. took trip in Charlie Bernstein's car to Res- ervoir No. 1, past Tom McMahon's farm yesterday. Billy couldn't snare the finny denizens of the deep onto his hook despite the fact that he spent more than an hour with a lantern in the wee hours of Friday morning getting night crawlers in the little park that fronts the rail- road station on Church street. Billy. it is said. caught one Johnny Roach but this isn't surprising because the fish must have known he was com ing and they hid away. Billy plans to steal out on tip toe the next time. Now let's get at those folders again Colorado Springs, Moose head, Eovia Scotia, Glacier Nation al Pafk. ..............
