MEDITERRANEAN IS
DESCRIBED AS RADIO
But Judge Alling Blames Illus.
band for Trouble in Home

In police court this morning.
Judge b. w. Alling heard a recital
of typical mother-in-l law case. OF
the kind that has furnished humor-
lists and alleged jokesters with mate
rial for years and years. Carl ko-
walski, aged %, of Is Parkview
avenue, after pleading not guilty to
charges Of breach OF the peace and
assaulting his wife at their home
iast evening, took the witness stand
and began his testimony by saying
that on his arrival at home he be
gan to listen to the radio. the same
as l have to listen to every night"
Prosecuting Attorney Woods asked
him what he meant by the radio"
and Kowalski replied. My mother
in-law.' She nagS him, every day.
he said, and nothing he does meets
with her approval. His wife ill nol
live apart from her mother, and con
sequently there is no peace in the
household.
Mrs. kowalski, however, testified
that her husband makes practice OF
drinking too much every Weekend.
and when he is intoxicated, every
one else in the house is obliged 10
submit to his abuse. Last evening
/ he came home under the influence
Of drink and threw himself on her
mothers bed. Asked to 80 upstairs
and use his own bed, he became
abusive. and besides calling his wife
names. he assaulted her. and pushed
her mother and her sister. He
worked only part of last week, say
ing he did not feel we'll. but the real
cause OF his condition was drink,
according TO his wife. The mother
in-laW gave similar testimony.
Officer Thomas Ticrney made the
arrest on complaint He found ko-
WALSH in his shirt sleeves out on
the street when lie arrived there
about SIS o'clock. He testified tnat
Mrs. koWalsi>i wanted her husband
arrested and he acted accordingly.
Judge Alling told kowalski he
believes the latter's drinking habits
are at the root OF the trouble in the
family. Last evening there would
probably have not been any dis
turbancc had he not come home with
the sign OF drink on him. and when
he was asked TO use another bed
he should have done SO instead of
flying into a rage. II seems, Judge
A'ling said that Mrs. kowalski can
not live without her mother and
kowalski cannot live without his
wife, so they must live together. He
continued the case until May 80. in
charge OF the probation officer.
Jack Riburo, aged Al. of l62
North street was fined 81 and costs
for drunkenness and breach OF the
peace. upernumerary Officer Will
liam sullivan testified that he made
, the arrest in tenement at IL Hart
! ford avenue last evening. Iiburo
was being held by two men when
the officer arrived, and from the
story told. there had been a fight
but Riburo's antagonist had run
! away.

principal organizers Of the local
class.
This will be the first time the
local class has not had at least three
speakers at national convention,
since the Federation was formed in
New Britain four years ago.
Last year the local class had
three speakers on the program at
Providence. r. l., and took fife
and drum corps as well as an or
chestra with the delegation from
here.
Interest in Bible class affairs has
fallen off this past year in the local
class due to number OF reasons.
The engaging OF a speaker at n
price more than three times the
class income, under the erroneous
impression that his expenses were
underwrit'en, Is thought to have
considerable to do with the lack of
interest
There has been considerable fric-
t!on alt through the year. Early in
the season the publicity committee
resigned, and all publicity has been
curtailed ever since. A vote early in
the season that class paper be re-
organized received no further action.
Later the chairman of the speakers
committee resigned.
This was followed by the rcsigna-
ton OF several members OF the or
chestra and rumors Of friction
