STATE MAY START
 LOCAL HATCHERY
Trout Nursery May Be EStab-
 GShed in Blue Hills
REMOVE LARGE GAS TANK
George Henry Colby of Kensington Marries Miss Vivian Isabelle Hor- ton of Hartford in Berlin Church ParsOnage-Plan Food Sale.

The Blue Hills section of Berlin will in all probability be the site of the states next trout hatchery if the rumored plans of the fish and game department of the state materialize. The Herald learned this morning that the department had purchased forty acres of land in this section of the town from Fred Peck.
 The land purchased contains the best of the fishing brooks in this To- cality and is on the site of the old fish hatchery conducted as a private enterprise some years ago by the grandfather of the grantor
 It could not be definitely learned today whether the department would reconstruct the old hatchery as James B, Titcomb, uperintendent, could not be located.
 The purchase is in accordance with the program of expansion that has been long propagated by the present superintendent.
 Gas Tanks Go
  Ions capacity each which are To- cated west of the Berlin station are being dismantled preparatory to their removal from the present site to one in Vermont.
 The tanks are being removed by their present owners, the Dutch Shell Co, who recently came into of chase. They were formerly the prop erty of the now defunct Go-Gas Co.,, and later became the storage plant of the Rackliffe Oil Co. until this company erected its own plant at a point west of the location of these tanks.
 A gang of workmen are at work today tearing down the tanks and removing the connecting pipes. It is expected that the work will be com- pleted and arrangements for ship ment made within the next two weeks.
 Bus Service to Start Sunday
 The long agitated bus service be- tween New britain and Middletown Will be lnaugurated next sunday It's inception will not do away entirely with the preaunt rail service between these two towns but will be rather an augmentation of the present sefv- ice.
 It will have the advantage over the present system in that it will be through service, eliminating the necessity of any change at Berlin as Is occasioned under the existing con- ditions. It will also answer the needs of the East Berlin residents who wish to ride 10 points in be- tween the towns.
 A full schedule including both Tail and bus service will be found on the first page of this issue.

BAD INTERSECTION DRAWS FIRE AGAIN Traffic On Crooked Street Crow
 ing Heavier Daily
 (. A. R. COMING HERE
Hughes to be Brought Into Court Large Delegation to Attend Le- zion Convention-Buses Not to be, Used on Plainville Line-Itens.

"Blindman's corner" the abrupt turn where Crooked street suddenly comes into New Briain road, the subject of considerable agitation and criticism in past years, is again un- der fire by motorists who have oc casion to use the street daily. This intersection is very peculiar and creates dangerous conditions that cannot be avoided
 The new cry for relief from the bad conditions at this point comes as a result Qt the recent repairs repairs made on Crooked street by the town. At the present time the street is in fine shape and very suit able for traffic. As result motorists coming from the direction of New Britain, who have business in the vicinity of the factoriesi on Wood ford avenue, are taking advantage of the good street and are travelling over it extensively. The traffic is growing heavier every day.
 However, the bad condition ex- ists mostly in the case of motorists who are travelling along Crooked street in the direction of New Brit ain road: Unless the driver is ac- quainted with the sharp turn into the highway, the chances for acci- dents are manyfold. In cases where drivers know of the conditions, they are forced to slow down and in many cases come to a practical standstill for a number of minutes while traffic on New Britain road rolls by. Impatient drivers will try tc cut into the line of traffic, creat- ing opportunity for bad collisions.
 Cars coming from New Britain and desiring to turn into Crooked street are confronted with many diff faculties. They are often forced 10 stop, holding up the line of traffic behind them. especially when the traffic from Plainville is heavy or some machine is parked at the in tersection waiting an opportunity 70 get out onto New Britain road, One driver stated today that evil dently the town realizes that Crook ed street is being used by many as a means of travel or otherwise the repairs would not have been made. He believes that the street could be fixed to curve into New Britain road at a. very small cost, estimating that about 500 feet of road would be in volved.
 Another motorist advanced the argument that the traffic congestion at Blossoms corn9r could be great ly eliminated if Crooked street were used more often by motorists cs- pecially employees of the factories. However with the present condition at the intersection, the street will be avoided by many, it is claimed. On Sundays drivers could cut through Crooked street, down Woodford ave- nue and up to East street, thereby avoiding Blossom corner. AS the boulevard system is in effect at East street and Woodford avenue, tho danger of accidents at this point would be very small.
 Much favorable comment has been made over the good condition of Crooked street and WoodforI avenue
