PRICE DICPUTERS
 | ASESCONTINUED
Rev Jacob Kaufman and Jack Zackheim Fight
 Over Oil Fee

A dispute over the price of oil between Rev Jacob Kaufman of 160 South Elm street and Jack Zack- helm, oil dealer of S9 Division street, yesterday led to the arrest of Zackheim on charges of assault and breach of the peace. The case was continued to Wednesday in city court to-day, since the defend ants counsel, Attorney Max Trau- rig, was unable to be present.
 Zackheim contends that the all tercation was started by Rev MT Kaufman, who is Studying to be a rabbi, and that he struck him in the face with stone.
 The fight is said to have started when the two had an argument over the price of some fuel oil which Zackheim had delivered to Rev MT Kaufman's house. They met on Bishop street yesterday and had words which led to fight and the arrest of Zackheim.
 Rev MT Kaufman appeared in court to-day with his head swathed in bandages.
 Witnesses summoned for the case include Benjamin Gromet of 63 Bishop street, Mrs Schneeroff of PA Cherry street and Saul Shiller of 191 Lincoln street.

and McDonald's drug store and the other into a First National store. While the burglars were busy, their machine was disabled by two Litch- field residents. Discovering that their car was not in running order the thieves ran two miles to Tyr relPs garage and after considerable difficulty managed to steal a ma- chine there. This last was the car recovered here Tuesday.
 Litz's record at the local police station shows that he has been ar- rested six. times, being twice sent to Cheshire reformatory. His first three arrests were before he had reached the age of 16. Three years ago he was found guilty of a break ing and entering charge and sent to Cheshire. Freed from there a few months later, he was then arrested for violation of parole. He was ar- rested last September on a charge of robbery with violence, but was given a .nolle. At that time police tried to link him with the nickel plate gun" gang but he was freed for lack of evidence. His brother, a member of the gang, was given a heavy sentence.
 The other youth, Scarritt, has but one arrest against his name and that on a technic albreach of the peace charge. He was held at that time for being 8 passenger in a stolen car and turned over to the state police. Police have no record of the disposition of that case.
 The latest robbery by the "stolen car" gang was reported in Wood- bury Tuesday night, when a drug store was entered and $200 in cash and some merchandise taken. The post office, in another part of the store was untouched. The astoler car" monicker has been given the gang because the usual procedure IS to steal car in this city or near by, make the break" and return ii the same or another stolen ve- hicle and then abandon it.

BETTER BUSINESS QUALITY LOOMS
Roy Hill of Hartford Makes Prediction at FOremen's
 Club Meeting

"We have been passing through an era of obstacles whcih should teach us many lessons as to crafts manship and salesmanship," de- clared Roy Hill of Hartford at the supper meeting of the Industrial Foremen's club at the central Y. M. c. A. last night. The subject of his address was Business To- morrow" There has been three eras of salesmanship, the speaker declared. First, the idea was to bring in the order; then came in- structions to bring in only orders that could be delivered; now the executive insists on orders that can be delivered and that will be paid for.
 A better quality of business will characterize the coming years. MT Hill cited a recent conference of coal dealers at which authorities at Washington indicated that there would very likely be one price for coal of a certain grade. This means that price cutting will no longer be a weapon of the salesman and that the goods will have to be sold on merit. Hence, the foremen is iOW HlOTe lUdIl ever HI IHlpOTLdHL part of the sales force, for goods that are made right will sell and those that are not made right will fail to find a market.
 Foremen must exercise their in- genuity in suggesting extra con veniences and additional services that will make their goods attrac- tive to the public. MT Hill cited sliced bread" as one effective ex- pedient in meeting the convenience of the suiting public.
 This is an era of designing. Ex- ternal appearances are important. The speaker attributed the increas- ed sales of automobiles in 1893 to the radical changes of design and appearance which made it impos- sible for the owner of an old car to have it painted up and look like a 1883 model.
 MT Hill paid tribute to the im- portan tpart that foremen play in industry and business. He urged them to take increasing advantage of the opportunity for leadership of the right kind. The success full foremen is not only loyal to his management, but is ready to fight for the welfare of the men in his department and to be of service to

PERSONALITIES
By Nellie Dodson

MARIONNE PEBBLES (bless 'er)
will 90 the keyhoie peeping out on the
campus until I get back. After scoot-
ing here and there in the last week or
so, she brings back this most startling
piece of inforr alton:
BENNY LANGFORD (who cheer
fully maintains that most of his gar
ments are IN hock) IS going around
these days lacking shirt, but to keep
the campus breezes from his person,
wears a nice black slipover sweater
and collegiate suede jacket. Benny
also SEE that he has no socks to wear
underneath the grey spats which cover
his footsies! Therefore, would like
to suggest that none Of you deprive
Mr.. Langford Of his sweater or spats
because the results would be slightly
embarrassing, Ell what?
Most of you have never seen DAN
NY ALLEN just before he is about to
take a quiz. It is a most amazing
sight to watch his reactions! He
means about he's sure he's gonna
funk, but meantime makes absolutely
no visible effort to study. Marionne
reports that she came across Danny
in the library week or so ago.. and
that he had certain look on his face
which is always sign of a quiz
soc.ow.iere in the offing.

LUCY B. doesn't have to worry
about ELMER, the boy friend, not
loving her. Elmer gave definite proof
of his undying affection last Sunday
afternoon. Lucy, who really plays
quite well when she KNOWS a piece,
was seated at the piano picking out
note by note and misctake by mis-
take the tune "Smoke Gets In Your
Eyes," but, as she hadn't tried it be-
fore and was doing it purely by ear,
the results were rather nerve-wrack-
ing! Elmer sat next to the piano very
patient, very quiet. In the next room
four of US were playing bride, but
Lucy's piano rendition was slightly
making concentration bit difficult,
and Lucy was told as much, but the
girl kept on trying to find the right
keys to fit the right notes. Elmer,
sitting right next to the piano pound
ing, didn't even protest about it. Then,
out of a clear sky, Lucy started to
SING! 1 dunno whether it was to
cover up the errors on the keyboard,
or whether it was Elmer's presence
that made her feel romantic, but
