 Enforcement of the closing hour regulation recently defeated passionate devotees of their late putting. Operators found the law said nothing about the legal hour of opening and after a few min- utes of darkness, turned on the lights and let the players in again.
 Police Judge Hit, appealed 10 by harassed officers, ruled that reasonable hour must be ob- serva forr opening the corner lot courses.

 The house. a two story frame building used as combination dwelling and store was surrounded by a large force of deputies and volunteer former service men, when Sutherland earlier in the day was believed to have barricaded himself within it.
 Bloodhounds were brought up but their handlers were driven back when Sutherland appeared suddenly in the doorway and opened fire.

City Officials Consider Benches Out side Stores Obiectional Because
 They Occupy Part of Public Foot paths and Block Pedestrians.

In & drive against sidewalk fruit and vegetable displays, show cases and other Instructions, heads of city departments today considered an amendment to the zoning- act which would permit no business to be con- ducted beyond building lines.
 Inspector Arthur N. Rutherford, Dr. l.. J. Dumont, pcrintendent of health, Police Chief William C. Hart and Corporation Counsel John H. Kirkham conferred at length and were in agreement that such legisla- tion would solve the problem.
 Objection to the displays is grounded on two points, the first that there is interference with the uses of the sidewalks and the second one of health. In some instances, lt was reporteds fruit stands project far out onto the sidewalks while clerks standing in front of the stands throughout the day leave but a few feet of walk for pedestrians. Condi- tions in the locality of the railroad crossover on Main street were cited as aggravated instances.
 Ordinances covering this point in other cities will be collected by Dr. Dumont and unless other means of correcting the situation are fownd, the common council and the board of adjustment will be asked to amend the zoninE act.

 George Cooley superintendent of the electrical department, and old est city employe of the city, has re- turned from his vacation an en- thusiastc airman. He made his first Might at the age of v in a plane plying between Brainard Field, Hartford. and an airport in Long Is- land as the first leg of his trip. and in his owr, words: Tt was the most wonderful sensation I have ever eX- perienced. Anyone who can fly and does not do so is missing something. and believe me I will make as many air trips as I possibly can. I am not SO old that have no sporting blood"
 Reports Feeling At Ease
 Mir Cooley said he felt as much at ease during the trip as though he were sitting in an easy chair and he did not experience the slightest fright as he felt the plane leaving the ground. There were II pas sengers, two pilots and two porters and none appeared the least con- cerned as they scared through space probably at the fastest rate of speed they had ever travelled.
 Concrete highways resemhled pieces of string stretched in grace full curves across a carpet, he said, and automobiles appeared to be about as small as the end of a finger. He was unable to distinguish the places the plane passed over ex- cept to have a general idea of the route, and he was pleasantly sur rriscd to note only a slight jar as inc plane landed.
 Before returning homo Mir. Cooley tried to obtain a reservation for an- other air trip but was disappointed, so great was the demand. He could not help thinking, he said, as he ob- served the comfortable appointments of the passenger planes he saw in various airports, of Lindbergh's dar- ing and the wonderful achievement 1t was for him to soar outsover the Atlantic in "The Spirit of St. Louis.
