The police signal light in Central square was connected Saturday and. after receiving its baptism call last night. is now ready for use This light, red in color. is located above the street light on the pole by the R. & l.. Service station and is de- signed to allow the quick calling of Constable George Schubert. night pa trolman. in case of a. nocturnal dis turhsnce. It is so placed that it can be seen from any of the main arter- ies leading from the center. while a telephone placed in a box at the foot Of the pole enables the officer to get in touch with the ccmplains mt or night telephone operator and learn the source of the call immedi- ately,
 The light will be in use only from 3 p, m. to 5 a. m. Constable Schu- tert said today He explained the procedure to be followed in making calls for him. All calls are to be giv- en to the night operator at the tele- phone unless the complainant de- sires to talk to Schubert personally In the later case the light will bring the officer as quickly as is possible. but ill many instances the person calling will not have time to wait, I He should therefore leave his sd dress and telephone number with the night operator. who will relay them to the night patrolman If he should by any chance fail to find the ad- dress mentioned. he can call the tele- phone number given.
 In the past there has been no sys- tenn for calling the night officer, and the operator at the telephone ex- change has had to call various plac- es where he stops on his beat in an effort to locate him The new sys- tenn will make for great rromptness and efficiency and could reduce materially the chances of disturb CT making his escape.
 The first call to be flashed from the new red light was signalled at 11;40 o'clock last night, In response. Constable Schubert went to a Whit ing street home where 3 family TOW was in progress He settled the dis turbanee quickly and without hav- ing recource to summ oninE any of the participants into court.
