The Waterbury Democrat., 1932-11-22

It's the hunting season up at Rocky Hill which is a suburb of Hartford, and shortly to be famed as the site of the new soldiers home. Herbert Sherwood, resident, can vouch for that. He merely points to bullet holes in his abode. There is one through dining room window, one through the sun porch. Still pheasants stroll across the lawn of his estate perched on ledge overlooking the Connecticut. All of which proves that game must be as big as house to fall prey to Connecticut nimrods.

POLICE ACTION

Squirrels as squirrels are per
fectly good pets, believes Mrs.
Emma v. Heiss, 3035 Newark St.
N. W., but when Olive and Hya-
cinth, two beautiful bushy-tailed
rodents from Cleveland Park,
leave the confines of their natural
home and cut up strange antics,
it is time something were done
about it.
First it was the cookie episode.
Cookies prepared for a bridge
party were mauled and hauled all
over the kitchen window ledge
by the playful Olive and Hya-
cinth. Next, Mr.. Heiss nearly
Topped off a piece of chin when
his attention was drawn from
shaving by the antics of Olive.
After playing cards were stolen,
Mrs. Heiss has appealed to Eighth
precinct police.
Frankly puzzled, the Metro
politan police have promised to
refer the matter to the United
States Park Police, who, they
say, really should handle the
situation.

FACE STRICT
DISCIPLINE.
Arson Marks 10-Hour Melee
at Dartmoor; IS Injured,
But None Escape

PRINCETOWN, England,
Jan. 25 (I.N.S. A future as
bleak as the vast Cnd hideous
moor which surrounds Dart
moor Prison today faced the
convicts responsible for the
bloody outbreak which re-
suited in injury to 50 prisoners
and guards and partial de-
struction of the ancient peni-
tentiary.
AS Government and prison Of
ficials launched a sweeping IN
vestigation of the riot, Gov. S. N.
Roberts said:
1--WE intend to take such disci-
plinary action as will make re-
currence of the incident i'm
possible"
Until further notice, only bully
beef and biscuits will be served
the prisoners for lunch and din
ner. instead of the more ap-
petizing fare to which they OBJ
jected.
Prison officials admitted that a
further outbreak was possible
and, for this reason, police and
troops were being held in Ply
mouth in readiness.
The outbreak came as a climax
to weeks of unrest, the immediate
cause of which was the convicts'
dissatisfaction with their morning
porridge.
Despite the seriousness of the
riot, in which several portions
of the institution were set afire,
no prisoner escaped. The upris-
ing was checked without death,
an official report stated.
Approximately half of the $50
Dartmoor convicts took part in
the riot.
One prisoner, who led a group
which tried to scale the walls,
was shot to the ground, and his
followers retreated.
