Neither Side Is Winner
In Tria-Blancat0 Suit

In a decision filed yesterday in
city court by Judge Morris D. Sake
in the matter of Victor Tria against
Angelo Blancati and his wife for
the recovery of SIS as balance due
on plans drawn by the PLAINTIFF for
the remodeling OF the defendants
property. the judge ruled for the
defendants absolving them paying
the balance, and on a counter
claim set in by the defendants
claiming $4,000 damages, the judy
ment was for the plaintiff.
The hearing. which took place
several weeks ago, revealed that the
architect had drawn plans for the
defendants which were to cost $1S5.
of which amount he received 800.
The defendants claimed that they
did not pay the balance because
the plans proved unsuitable and
that the building department refus-
ed to issue a permit on the ground
that the specifications were not in
compliance with city ordinances.
The defendants further endeavored
to show that because of their ina
tility to receive a permit for alter
ations. they lost tenants and several
months rental on the stores. In
their counter-claim the Blancatis
asked for the return Of the 500 and
damages for the loss Of tenants and
rental. NJ. F. Stempien represented
the plaintiff.

RECTOR OPPOSES
PARK Dance HALL
Rev. Samuel Sutclihe Objects
to Proposed Public Pavilion

F Opposition to- the establishment
Of 4 municipal dance pavilion In =
park in this city was voiced by Rev.
Samuel Sutcliffe, rector of ST. Mark
Episcopal church, during a discus
sion of the proposed park board
program at the meeting of the En-
change club at the Burritt hotel last
evening. Rev. Mr.. Sutcliffe voiced
his sentiments after Edward Christ
had proposed that the club endorse
the plan of the park board to build
a municipal golf course in this city.
Rev. Mr.. Sutcliffe stated that
while he was not opposed to dane
ing, he had never seen a municipal
dance hall properly operated. New
Britain parks. according to the min
lister. are not sufficiently lighted or
policed to have a dance pavilion
that would be credit to the city.
He told his fellow club members
that he was strongly in favor Of a
golf course but asked the club TO
make 1t clearly understood in It's
resolution that it was endorsing the
golf course and not the entire park
program which calls for both a golf
course and dance pavilion.
A lively discussion followed. Fred
Hausmann moved that the matter be
laid over for a week, claiming that
the members OF the club had not
been given sufficient time to think it
over. This motion was voted down
after Joseph Ward took the floor and
stated that the agitation for a NUM-
cfpal golf course had been going on
for three or four years by a number
of business men and there was moth
ing sudden in the proposition. He
also said that golf players who are
not wealthy enough to join country
club are forced to go to the public
courses in Hartford. Dudley Walker
stated that there is room for golf
course and a dance pavilion in this
city.
The original resolution placed be-
fore the club by Mr.. Christ was pass
ed and he, with Fred Hausmann,
was appointed to prepare resolu-
ton to be presented to the park
board endorsing the proposed NUM-
cipal golf course. Mr.. Christ said
that he believed the proposition to
be of great benefit to the city and he
had placed the question before the
CLUB after he had been approached
by a member Of the park board.
Charles &. Cain of West Haven.
president of the H. & H. Aerial Serv.
