SCOUT DRIVE TO
 MISS ITS QUOTA
Marks First Time Cam= paign For Funds Has
 Ever Fallen Short

For the first time in the history of similar campaigns ;a waterbury the combined drive of the local councils of Boy and Girl Scouts for funds to carry on expenses of the coming year will fall far short of the goal, according to indications prior to the final report meeting.
 Samuel P. Williams Jr, treasurer of the campaign, said today that it was improbable that more than $12,O00 would be reported tonight, as the final total, although several outside districts were still to be heard from. The quota announced as necessary to defray expenses of the two councils for the fiscal year was $17,000.
 Failure to raise this amount will mean that activities of the coun- cils will necessarily be greatly cur- tailed, according to MT Williams. The drive will not be extended, he said, but members of the commit tee may continue to solicit funds on their own initiative for. a time.
 lnOS0 WHO nave DeeH IllSSSu Dy solicitors may still make contribu- tions. Checks may be made out to MT Williams and sent to head quarters in the Brown building, or cash contributions may be person. ally brought there. At the last re- port meeting the Rotary club team was found to be leading in the race for team honors, with the Lions club close second.
 Attorney Terence F. Carmody was general chairman of the cam paign committee with former Gov- ernor Charles Templeton and Mrs Julius B. Smith as vice chairman. Martin l.. Martus, president of the council, acted as chairman of the executive committee, assisted by Charles E. Hart, Samuel P. Will liams, Jr, Edward s. Sanderson, Edward H. Davis, Dana Tyack, ouis A.

COMMUNITY HOUSE
 PROVING POPULAR
Policeman Needed to Main= tain Order = Lights
 Wanted For Skaters

A visit to the Washington Park Community House any evening will convince anybody that the build ing is well patronized, we'll manag- ed and furnishes an excellent pro- gram for large numbers of people from Washington Hill and other parts of the city. Skating in the Park across the way is an added attraction and when basketball is started the number of patrons will be increased considerably. It stands to reason that where so many meet at the same place the presence of a policemen is absolutely necessary to maintain order. This is notice able in the evening when a num- Der of young folks from the eighth grades who attend meetings there and are dismissed at 8 o'clock. When an officer was in attendance he saw that they left immediate vicinity, but now they remain out side and leave when they please.
 There is also urgent need of light for skating. A couple of re- f1ectors on the roof of the build- ing or light at the baseball back stand would be greatly appreciated and would have a tendency to pre- vent accident.
 Having done so much to furnish an opportunity for legitimate a. musement in that part of Water bury 1t is believed that Mayor Hayes, who is credited with being mainly responsible of this recrea- tion center will see that the man. agement is put in a position to conduct the house in an orderly manner. Some say the matter of police protection is up to the safety board. while others claim it is the business of the park department. It makes no difference who fur nishes the officer, but it is the hope of everybody interested in the suc- cess of the institution that a po- liceman will be on duty there in the near future. if not all day at least from 8 o'clock to midnight evenings.
 At the present time the follow ing classes are in active operation for gfrls and women:
 Monday 7:0O to 1i:OO D. m.- Minstrel rehearsal, 20 girls; sewing. 12 girls; bowling, AS girls and dramatics, 6 girls.
