NIFTY EIGHT years ago, Cadet
l. Calvin Duvsl Cowles and Cadet
George H. Paddock talked JOY
fully about their approaching
graduation from the United
States Military Academy.
In June they graduated. Smihngly,
they shook hands as they left their
alma mater with the belief that their
paths would cross often and frequently,
as is the usual case with Army men.
Today, for the first time since 1878,
Calvin Cowles and George Paddock,
both gray haired, soldierly figures, who
had retired as colonies nearly 20 years
ago, met in the lobby Of the Hotel
Martinique.

The meeting, arranged after one of
the colonies had seen the, others reg

much laughter and many "reminiscences.
Col. Cowles was under the impression
that the meeting was the second since
graduation in 1873.

said.

On April 25 Casadi was arrested on the charge of operating without | a license. His counsel succeeded in the absence of Sergeat Gene Lenzi of the Beacon Falls barracks in ob- taining a nolle- on the payment of S10. The state police, however, im- mediately protested and declared that driving without an official per-
 init was only minor detail in con- nection with the case. They intimate that Casadi, who cannot read and is
 not conversant with state motor ve-
 hicle laws, obtained license by
 proxy"
 Casadi has a bona fide license, it , Is admitted, but the charge has been
 made that he obtained it in a ques- tionable manner. He had friend
 appear at the motor vehicle office to take the required literary tests. The friend passed with flying colors and
 the license was issued in Casadi's
 name. Everything went well for a few weeks, but when the accused be-
 came involved in an accident in an-
 other part of the state it developed
 that he could not read English. In-
 quiry was made at the local office
 how it was that such man passed
 the examinations and qualified for
 the license.
 The state police became active and
 checked up on Casadi and reached the conclusion that someone "dou- bled'' for him. Consequently they
 charge him with obtaining the per
 init by fraud.

WOMEN ZIONIST
 | ORGANIZATION
Hadassah Chapter to Meet Mrs Edward Jacobs at
 SOssin's Tea Room
ON SUNDAY MAY l7

Under the auspices of the Wa terbury Chapter of Hadassah, the Women's Zionist organization of America a large gathering will be held at Sossin's Tea Room on Sun day evening May the 17th with Mrs Edward Jacobs, of New York, prom inent Zionist and national president of Hadassah, as speaker. Mrs Jo- seph Singer, president of the local chapter, will preside at the gather ing.
 Mrs Edward Jacobs, of New York who was the only woman elected to the administration committee of the Zionist Organization of America at it's convention in 1880, in Cleveland, was one of the first members of Hadassah, the Women's Zionist Or ganization of America. where 1t was organized eighteen years ago by Miss Henrietta Szold.
 Few women anywhere have so rich a knowledge of Judism and Zionism, historic of the Zionist movement throughout the world and of conditions in Palestine in particular, she has taken prominent part in many world Zionist con- gresses, where her knowledge. in- sight and striking personality com manded attention. A frequent Vis- itor to European countries and to Palestine, Mrs Jacobs keeps in di- rect personal contact with Zionist leaders and events. In February 1927 she was member of the Ha- dassah commission to Palestine with Miss Sagold and the late Nor win R. Luidheim. First as an as- sociate of Miss Szold when the lat ter. was head of the important Pal estine committee of Hadassah, then as chairman of that committee, post which she held up until her election as president, she is closest to Hadassah affairs in Palestine.
 She was a delegate of Aadassah with Mrs David de Sola Pool at a conference of the Women's 1nterna- tional Zionist Organization in Lon- don in the summer of 1880. Before her departure for Europe Mrs Ja- cobs effected the organization of the Medical and Public Health Re- ference Board of Hadassah, securing ten (1O) prominent physicians and sanitary engineer to serve on this board.
 The Jewish Community of Wa terbury are anticipating Mrs Ja- cobs' visit as stimulous to Zionist interest. Her reputation as a noted speaker and her long years of asso- citation with the Zionist movement have made her popular with gath erings the country over and ca- pacity audience is expected at the forthcoming Hadassah gathering. The local chapter is one of 19G throughout the United States, all devoted to the two-fold purpose of Hadassah supporting health insti- tutions in Palestine and spreading Zionist education in America. It maintains hospitals, dispensaries 32 rural dispensaries, 22 welfare health institutions in the Holy Land and is the largest public health agency in that country.
