Hill School Wins-Notcs.
 Assistant Prosecutor Edward J. | Quinlan attempted in police court this morning to discover how q Ger man police dog, owned by an East Bristol resident, had emerged from the city dog pound and had reach cd the home of Michael Zazulak in East Bristol without being assisted in some way by human beings. Za- zulak told the court that the dog had come to his home Sunday morning at about 10:30 o'clock alone. He stated that it's owner had promised to give him the canine as soon as it was released by Dog War den Joseph E. Ryan.
 According to Warden Ryan, who testified, the dog in question was evidently taken from the pound. He said that the rope which held the animal was severed and panel in the door of the pound was smashed, just large enough. he continued for d man to squeeze through. Zazu- lak denied having taken the dog from the pound.
 The dog. together with a second owned by Zazulak. ran wild in the eastern section of the city some time ago and slew number of chickens and other barnyard birds. Follow ing their capture by the dog war den they were imprisoned in the city pound, where they remained until someone took one away. Just who kidnaped the animal remains a mystery.

 May Widen Streets
 At a meeting of the board of po- lice commissioners held in the coun- cil chamber last evening Traffic Sergeant Aldie Brault of the police department recommended that North Main street, between North and Laurel streets. be widened two feet. He also stated that Divinity street between Park and West streets and from West street to the curve in the road on School street, be widened sufficiently to eliminate con- gestion at those points.
 After discussion on the teasi- biltty of such a plan it was decided to request City Engineer Carlton E Buell. to survey the proposed streets to be widened. Mayor w. Raymond Crumb thought that zoning would alleviate this serious congestion in that it would force property owners to build only certain distances from the street. Bids for the zonng of the city have been called in from ont Pittsburgh and two or three New York concerns. It is believed that the city will be ordered zoned unless the cost is prohibitive.
 Sergeant Brault told the commis Soners that he had erected C : "blinllcr' signal at the beginning O the Barnes private road near tn, Barnes residence in the hill section The signal, prominently displayed notifies drivers that the road is :; private one and not for public use.
