The same keen rivalry of the Cali

and that Coach Knute Rockne was a
good coach and a great sportsman.
I'VE couldn't get fired up about it,

 Superior Court Judge Edwin C.. Dickenson signed an order appoint ing the City Bank & Trust company of Hartford as receiver, on appllca- tion of Merton W. Bassett and Ben jamn M. Knox, shareholders, late yesterday but held the receivership in abeyance three hours later when Attorneys Harry w. Reynolds and Lawrence w.

New York, Feb 19.-UP)-The stock market ruled quiet and strong to-day. Near D. m. r. S. Steel was above 147 and the general list was around the best levels of the day with gains ranging to nearly five points.
 Improvement in the steel industry, particularly the Youngstown district where Republic was reported oper- ating at 80 per cent of inGot capa- city, higher copper prices, strength ,ening in grain, and firmer silver prices were construed bullishly. Railroad shares advanced after J. U. Pelley, president of the New Ha- ven issued a reassuring statement in which he said: we are rather en- couraged concerning the outlook"
 Various interpretations were placed on a rise of Is of 1 per cent in bankers acceptance rates. In some quarters this was considered a normal seasonal development; others ascribed it to impending passage of the bonus bill; some held it rep resented improvement in business which now was demanding more ere dit.
 New York and Harlem was sen sational mover in the railroad di- vision. On odd-lot transactions, the the issue advanced 20 IA points to 2O9 3-4.
 Railroad stocks generally got into action in the afternoon. New York Central ran up to 128 up 2 points. while Atchison reached 200 up l and others made corresponding gains.

Cuilfoile Secures Habeas Corpus Writ
 For James Costa
Shifting of Superior Court Session for icheld County to Winsted Claimed Illegal-C0sta Sentenced to Fifteen Years for Bombing of Prosecuting Attorney Walls Home

home of former Prosecuting Attorney Thomas J. Wall of the Torrington city court on March 17th, 1925. He was later apprehended and in No- vember of 1929 sentenced from the superior court in session at Winsted.
 Attorney Guilfoile questions the legality of the trial and will claim that the Winsted court session was a mistrial. He places his argument on the grounds that the law speci- fically states the superior court ses- sions for Litchfield county shall be held only in Litchfield. In the fall of 1929 the Litchfield superior court house happened to be under repair and the court session was adjourned to Winsted. Attorney Guilfoile was successful in obtaining the habeas corpus writ on the argument that in removing the court session to town other than Litchfield was illegal, and that a mistrial resulted.
 The Litchfield County Bar asso- citation now has a bill before the state legislature providing that the superior court sessions may be held in Winsted as well as Litchfield.
 Two other Torrington men, Frank Rocco and Patsy Bruno, were sent enced to serve from seven to 10 years for their participation in the same bombing case. The board Of pardons however, saw fit to pardon these two men about month ago.
 Costa at the trial denied he was responsible for the bombing of the Wall home and offered the excuse that he was playing cards the night of the explosion.
 Prosecutor Wall was untiring in his efforts to bring about the arrest of the persons responsible for the bombing and maintained four year search before he was successful in the apprehension of Costa and his two alleged companions.
