Flower PeddIer Moves In at
Bridge "Stand' After
Order Is Made.

indianapolis has a mystery motor
cycle cop, officer, policeman, or
what is it?
He dashes up to a curb at the
north-end Of the Delaware street
bridge and Fall Creek boulevard
and orders Nick Waller, paralyzed
balloon seller, to move to the south
end Of the bridge to peddle his
wares.
You'll cause an accident here"
he beloved at Nick.
Protests of No Avail.
Nick blinked like the spotlight
in whose shadow he stood. For
more than year he'd been crying
balloons at the corner and no one
had objected. He had peddlers
license, and he'd show it.
The protest rolled off like the
motor car traffic off the bridge.
The phantom uniformed cyclist
rode away.
Nick and his waving balloons re-
treated to the bridges southern
segment. Autos didn't stop for
traffic lights there. Nick's sales
dropped.
But shortly afterward, a flower
merchant cried his blooms where
Nick had sold balloons.
The Indianapolis Times printed a
story Of Nick's battle against odds,
industry that manned him, and how
he made living despite his auto
maton body.
Police Denies Move Order.
One Of Nick's friends phoned of
Nick's brush with the law.
A check was made. The police
denied they moved Nick.
He can sell all he wants to at
the north end of the bridge. He
won't cause near the accidents there
as at the south end" declared Cap
tain Louis Johnson, of the traffic
squad.
I'VE didn't chase him." echoed po-
lice assigned to the city park de-
partment.
So it's Nick's move!
He can 60 back to his old stand
unless-the phantom cyclist rides
again and flowers bloom at so much
a bunch" instead of balloons.

have been requesting the depart mcnt to take this action, 50 that local motorists and tourists might be able to identify the many pie turesque lakes and streams which enhance tho Connecticut country side. Tho department hns refralned tho oiicial names of many of these bodies of water is q subject of dis- puto.
 For tho purpose, of assisting tho assembly in officially naming the inland waters of the state, the de- partment has listed tho titles which 1t believes arc most fre- duently applied to them. The de- partmcnt Is not Interested In whc- ther or not these names aro adopt ed; It Is interested in having nIl disputes settled by tho legislature before tho signs arc placed.
 Practically all of the larger bod les of water In the state havo borne their present names without dis pute for many years, but with the mnallcr bodies 1t has been fre- quently found that they are known by ono name fin one town or section or Il town and by some different title In another, Sometimes the disputes wax exceedingly hot. Ono faction will quote letters of some townsm0n's great great grand father to prove that IL stream hns always been called Roaring Brook. Their opponents will refer to land records, equally ancient. In which the same stream is definitely labeled "Beaver Brook. Still more heated arc the debates when old family namso, have been applied to a small body of water. Whether n pond should properly be called Jones lake" or smiths pond" Is Il matter of real argument. Each S,do insists tthat tho family name be perpetuated by having the pond aS a permanent memorial.
 As Is customary with all matters introduced Into tho general as- Gembly a fair and ample oppor- tunity will be given for the parti- cipants in such debates to express themselves and to present their evidence at Il public hearing before the committed. The date of the hearing will be announced later. After hearing any and all disputes over tho names, the legislature, If tho bill is passed, will officially name each body of water along the highways and name selected will be permanent,
 This course may not end tho fac- tlonal arguments over tho names. but 1t will establish un official title which tho highway department can use when tho marking signs arc erected. Following is list of names in New Haven county:
