Naugatuck, August 16 = Fran els F. Schiaroli, son of MT and Mrs Navarro Schiaroli of Burritt Place, continues to distinguish himself in the field of learning. Schiaroli has just received news he has won the Charles Brooker scholarship at Yale University Law School, amounting to $450.
 This is another big step in the enviable record the local man has made and marks the sixth scholar ship he has received. He is grad :. uate of Naugatuck High school where he won honors.
 He r. also a graduate of Yale University. While there each year he won at least one scholarship. Schiaroli entered the law school section last fall and his achieving this scholarship which is sought after by many other scholars ind1- cates he is continuing to show ex- ceptiona1 intelligence and learning.
 He is rapidly learning to become fine orator. During his school year he was one of the founders or the new society known as the Yale Legislative Society. It is composed of law students who speak at var ious occasions ether in defence of certain laws, or in criticism of others. This practical training is helping to develop the Noratorical ability of the youths.
 Schiaroli recently demonstrated considerable promise when he de- livered a campaign talk for the republican party at a rally held prior to the spring election. He not only spoke in English. but also ad- dressed the audience. many of which were native Italians, in the Italian tongue.
 He showed a complete knowledge of this tongue.
 He will start his second year there next fall. The latest scholar ship was one of the most valuable he has yet won.
