 From present reports on the case it is almost certain that Wright will be tried on a first degree count.
 He has signed an affidavit confess ing the deliberate shooting of George Duncan of 841 North Main street in the Wolcott woods on the evening of August 8. He is also re- ported to have given as the motive, his love for his victims wife.
 Wright has been confined to the county jail at New Haven since he was bound over to the superior court here from the Wolcott town court several weeks ago. He is ex- pected to appear with the other prisoners when they are brought to the local court from the county jail next Tuesday afternoon.

According to the National Automobile
Dealers Association there has been q

years in the number of cars that dealers
have junked. Estimates issued by the
association for the years 1928, 1929 and
1880. respectively, follow:

of the country for an increase in the

eating a jump from 1 per cent to 5 per
cent. This would produce $50 per each
81 900 automobile. and each five auto

1T Is calculated that II the dealer
could allow $3.50 for each Of these used
cars which have q merchandise value

as being something worth $500 or $500

Obstacles lie in the way, Of course, of
any such increase In the junking bonus.
1t would almost necessarily call for q
price increase of new cars. If the fac

to $50 per 81 900 IN sales they might
reasonably expect TO add $50 to the

Such figures as these are sufficient

Star Is Seen at Capitol in One of Her Most h.

A statue of Greta Garbo of he- roic moulding and more than three times life size, was cast at the Metro o-Goldwyn-Mayer art gallery under supervision of Cedric Gib- bons for the art studio scenes in Inspiration" Miss Garbos starring vehicle, which is showing at the Capitol theatre
 The star personally posed for the miniature model from which the giant statue was made, sitting for the artist between scenes. The statue is a symbolic one represent ing a nation of peasant women.
 AS the sensational Parisian model of Gene Markey's original story, Miss Garbo has a most interesting role.
 Details of Story
 The story concerns the infatua- ton of the model for a young, pro- vincial student who is already be- trothed The means by which they attempt to solve the probl m makes elective dramatic denoue- ment.
 Clarence Brown directed "1nspir- ation." Robert Montgomery is seen opposite the star and the support ing cast includes Lewis Stone, Mar jorie Rambeau, Ju ii t h Vosselli, Beryl Mercer, Joan Milan, Edwin Maxwell, Joan Marsh, Zelda Sears, Karen Morley and Gwen Lee.
 Star Is Overweight
 Carrying Miss Garbo up a flight of stairs would thrill almost any young man, but when the exotic star is burdened with an extra 30 pounds of costume weights the task becomes strictly one of labor.
 At least Montgomery thought so after spending an entire day car-
