they are right up in the running
and intend to stay there.
JOHNNY Bowey's "Sligo Terrors"
and Mike Goggins' "Rovers" were
next in line, each winning "a games
over their mates, namely, Bill KEEL
ley's CLASHES" and Billy O'Don-
nell's "Galty Boys" who won 20
each. Mike Goggins popped his
team up considerably by whistling
q few old Irish airs and especially
when he hit up 1.-The Wind That
Shelled the Barley" and from then
on there was no stop to Mike and
his "Rovers." Billy's poor old

nahan gives final orders that it is
the Galty's turn to swing into ac-
ton, and that will mean right and

either.
Two moro teams won the same
amount of games. this time Joe

"Scoopie" Carey's ''Dare-devils, :"
who nosed out very clase games
with Mickey Craney's Cracker
Jacks" and Perry Shannahan's
"Short Circuits" with tight score
of 1921. Mickey's alib1 was that
he felt the loss of his sensational
Coach Ted but nevertheless was
fortunate in securing high class
pinch hitter in the person of
frankie Gaynor, who gave a good
account of himself. and If Ted is
absent again without notice, he will
have to take a back seat in favor
of Coach frankie. That's telling
him Mickey, old kid.

colorful spectacle.
One of the principals In the
show will be Ann Egan, who has
been acclaimed for her singing on
numerous occasions. Another of
the headline acts will offer the
dancing of Helen Garren, tap and
eccentric dancer. The Maher sis
tiers, Kathleen and Betty are also
numbered among the principals
The former is a talented soprano,
while the latter does clever song

LAST TOUCHES FOR
LOCAL POST OFFICE
Contractor Is Slow About
Coming to Install the
Lighting Fixtures

The contract for installing the
lighting fixtures in the new post
office building expires Thursday
but as yet the company given the
contract has failed to have even a
representative in this city. The
post office department awarded
the contract to the United States
Bronze company Of Baltimore on
December 8. The stipulated time
limit was so days, but So of the
days have passed and the unsight-
ly temporary lights are still the
only ones in the federal building
lobby.
A letter from j. Field, Boston,
representative or the company was
sent January 31st, stating that he
would be in Waterbury in a day
or two after that date to super
wise the installation. Thus far he
has failed to appear and the post
office is still without it's fixtures.
The fixtures are the last touch
needed to complete the post office
building. They are needed in the
main lobby, the vestibule and in
several private offices.

YOUNG MAN Held
UNDER $500 BOND
Pleaded Guilty in Court to
Charge of Breaking
and Entering

Raymond Crosby, 81, of 80 Ed
ward street pleaded guilty to the
charge of breaking and entering
when arranged in police court this
morning. After he was formally
ordered held under bonds of $500
for next term of superior court
the question as to his age arose.
Crosby claims that he is not quite
81, but the police claim that he is.
The only difference in the case
will be that the young man must
be accompanied by guardian in
court. Usually the judge names
any lawyer present to act in such
a capacity for an accused youth.
1t will have no bearing on the ac-
ton of holding him for higher
court.
Crosby was found in a tavern
on West Main street. When
searched he had nearly SO in PEN

claimed was taken from the cash
register. Patrolman John Carmody

after leaping through a window
and hiding in the doorway of an
adjoining building. The youth
had been drinking.
The case of Charles M. Zupsnes
AZ, of 20 Chase Park avenue was
continued for six months. He was
arrested on the charge of assault
when young lad named Harold
Kolosky of 80 Chase Park avenue

him in the abdomen. Zupsnes de-
MED the charge and claimed that
he separated kolosky from figth-
ing with another lad and pushed
him out of hallway.
