 Undcrground-No Red Croas Re- port yet-Annual Christmas Sale. Schoolchildren who have not been vaccinated will not be permitted to attend classes until the present smallpox epidemic in Unionville b l over. Dr. George F. Cook, local health officer. and Leon c. Staples, ! superintendent of schools, stated to- day. Children with physicians cer- i titicates excusing them from inocu- lation will be excluded from school when classes are resumed Monday. and no child who has not been vac cinated vii be allowed in school. | This step is due to the outbreak of smallpox in the neighboring town of Unionville. The smallpox is of the virulent Canadian type and not of the mild form which has been epi- [ demic in several Connecticut cities in recent years. Because of this fact and the proximity of Unionville. the school and health authorities have I d F. eli n
 prevent d spread of the malady to this town.
 It is believed that hardly more than half a dozen children will be
 affected. although this cannot be
 ascertained until the school records
 are examined Monday. Those who
 are found to be unvaccinated, re-
 gardless of whether or not they have
 excuses from physicians. will be kept
 from school unless they submit to
 inoculation at this time. Plainville's
 children are almost 100 per cent vac-
 cinated at the present time because
 Of drives made during recent mild
 epidemics in nearby towns. All chill
 dren who were vaccinated more than
 five years ago are urged to submit
 to the needle again. while the same
 step is recommended for adults by
 the health officials.
 There is no smallpox in Plainville
 at present and it is hoped to keep
 the disease out of this town. There
 are five cases of scarlet fever. an
 additional one having been reported
 over the holiday.

 Schubert's investigation showed : that Pac had been on the left side of the road when he struck Mon. tella. The officer also believed thc

 Both cars were badly damaged
