ITALIANS AWAIT
 ST ORONZO FEAST
State Societies Plan Spe- Cial Observance TOmOr-
 row in Bristol

Preparations are rapidly being completed for the 14th annual cele- bration of the Feast of St Oronzo to be held at Lake Compounce tomorrow night. Extra facilities are being added at the lake to handle what will undoubtedly be record crowd. The committee in charge is sparing neither expense nor effort to make the program this year one of the most elabo rate of all time.
 The brilliant and spectacular dis play of fireworks to be presented by Domenic Latela of New Haven will far excel any former displays given by the St Oronza society. The vast reputation that these Italians have established in the IA years of their existence for some- thing so unusual, so unbelieveably gorgeous in the way of pyrotecnics, is without doubt the answer to why some thirty thousand people from all over the state as well as from neighboring states will gather on the shores of Lake Compounce to- morrow night.
 The earlier part of the evening pTeNlOuS LO lIllS STdHu anu SlOTlOuS climax will lack nothing in the way of diversified entertainment and recreation. Two very fine bands, the Bell City band of Bristol under the direction of Leonard Lacovaro, and the Hartford City band directed by Prof Puca, will furnish continuous music from until Il p. m. Both of these organizations have pre- pared very fine program of class ical numbers interspersed with Italian folk songs.
 The Bell City band will feature as it's guest artist one of the best cornet soloists in the country, M Giliberti, a member of the Will liamsburgh Concert band of Brook lyn, N. r., and a former member of the worlds famous Creatore band of New York.
 Special Italian food served in the Egyptian grill, together with dancing and the enjoyment of the various rides and concessions will round out an evening of entertain ment long to be remembered by young and old.
 Lake avenue which has been un- der repair for some time has been considerably widened and although not completed will nevertheless be in excellent condition to care for the heavy traffic going to and from the lake.
