 Southington. Oct. IA record vote was predicted by party leaders in the annual election for town of- fices today. With total enrolment of approximately 2.SOO electors 10 be drawn from, more than 900 had voted up to noon time today.
 The liveliest contest aside from the efforts of both parties to elect their candidates, was centered around the race for first selectman between Charles W. Camp and Juli- us B. Lewis. Both have been mem- bers of the board for the past year and both were selected to head their tickets. Camp is democrat and Lewis a republican.
 The office of first selectman has been left vacant since the death of William Foley few months ago. Since that time MT. Camp has been acting as first selectman. He is con- sidered to be the strongest candi- date the democratic party has had up in years.
 The polls are open from 6 a. m. to 6. D. m.

A change in the plans of the water board may result in an extension project amounting in cost to ap- proximately $1.700.000. getting un- der way this year. instead of . filtra- tion plant only as has been planned heretofore.
 The board has had under consid- eration proposal that work be started on the filters for which an estimate of s600,0 900 has been made. and bids were called for on this proposition. only to have all bids turned back without opening. when the common council demurred on . vote to issue bonds.
 Chairman James J. Watson is planning to confer with Allan Hazen, of the firm of Hagen & Whipple, consultants who planned the entire project, this week, and it is his be- lief that a recommendation will ul- timately be made by which not only the filtration plant, but also the new pipe line to Hart's mills will be in- CluuCu HI lIllo yCot . WI
 It is planned to build the filter plant near Shuttle Meadow reservoir. the system to include fresh water basins and a slow sand filtration sys- tenn.
 The proposed pipe line will be miles in length. From Shuttle Meadow reservoir to Whites Bridge. the line will be 42 inches in depth. and from that point to Hart's mills, a 36 inch main will be used. This will greatly increase the flow of water to the city. and the filter sys- tenn will add quality to the increased quantity.
 It is the belief of Chairman Wat son and Engineer Hazen that 1t II the practical thing to do to start both projects simultaneously.

 Up to Garry Passengers to Elm
 City and to New York-Crews
 Working
 Bridgeport. Oct. 1 (UP)-Train traffic on the main line of the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroad was almost completely blocked today by serious freight car derailment 100 yards south of Bridgeport station.
 Seven Cars Derailcd
 Seven cars left the tracks, block ing four of the five lines just as heavy commuter traffic was due to start.
 No one was injured. One coal car was smashed and 8 box car damaged. Considerable damage was done to the timbers of viaduct leading to anchor drawbridge.
 The train consisted of a locomo- tive and 5S cars. It was bound from Harlem river, N. Y.. to Bos- ton.
 A broken coupling on one of the cars was thought to have caused the accident. The crippled car ca reened off the rails. dragging six others with it. Five of the derail- ed cars were coal cars, two the box type.
 Had the accident occurred either on the nearby drawtridge or at the station, it might have been more serious, railroad men believed.
 Crews at Work
 Wrecking crews from Harlem riv- CT and New Haven were dispatched to the scene and began clearing the wreckage. Some traffic was seeping through on the single open line. Special trains were made up here to carry commuters to New York and New Haven.
 The wreckers did not believe they could complete their work before afternoon.
 The smashed coal car had to be taken apart and removed piece by piece by means of derrick.

soprano.
Metropolitan Opera officials said
no statement had been issued at
the opera house to the effect that

George EngleS, Miss Talley's new
manager, has maintained silence
during the flood of speculation
which the rumors have aroused in
musical circles.

former manager, F. G. Coppicus for
