travelling to all sections of the state where he is needed in connection with the projects.
 That such an enterprise would find immediate favor in this city is apparent from the large number of high school students who have been unable to locate employment t since graduation last June. Hum dreds who would have found work in factories or stores. under better industrial circumstances, are sperd ing their time in idleness or fruitless search for jobs.i
 To Meet At Crosby
 The rev proposal would provide an ideal solution of the problem faced by these youngsters and might eventually lead to employ ment in positions for which they are suited. The meeting of super intendents of all schools in this city and surrounding towns at which this project and others pro- posed under the state educational program will be studied is to be held at Crosby High school.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-09-18

Among projects to be explained by N Searle Light. at a meeting of schol superintendents here Sep tember 26 is the formation of a system of vocational guidance clinics, the latest scheme of the state department of education. Ar engagements for the plan are under the direction of MT Light.
 The aim of guidance clinics is the assistance in the selection of vacations for young people who are undecided as to their future work. It is hoped by this means to guide the youth of the state in deciding the occupations for which they are best fitted, and also to give them information as to the proper train ing required for their chosen work.
 Dr Gleason In Charge
 The clinics will be supervised by Dr Clyde w. Gleason, director of education for the eco camps in the state, who resigned his posi- ton in order to take charge of tLe new development. Dr Gleason will work from his Hartford office

swung into the close reach for home, slightly frightened Rain bows chance of overhauling the challenger.
 Endeavor's elapsed time on the first leg was 56 minutes and 35 seconds slower than the mark set by Vigilante in 1893.
 The Britisher's time for the 20 miles (two legs) was 2 hours, 13 minutes and 36 seconds. Rainbow's time was hours, 15 minutes and 35 seconds.
 At 2:3O p. m., with the finish line only three and half miles l away, Sopwith's blue lugger was holding up well on her lead in the close reach on the home leg. Rainbow gained nearly half minute on the last leg, and there was considerable chance the de | fender will do better in lighter air | which is forecast for the next few days.
 It was recalled that Yankees supporters claimed, during the cup race trials which she lost to Rain bow, that the Boston sloops could easily outrace the Vanderbilt en- try in blow. The races yesterday and today have encouraged some ''I told you so's" among the back CTS of the beaten New England boat.
 The race committee boat .imme- diately signalled the contenders to determine if they wished to race | tomorrow. An affirmative reply was received from Epdeavour, Rainbow did no immediately an- swer. If she asks an intervening day, the third race will go over until Thursday.
 Endeavour appeared in an ex- | tremely strong position, needing only two races out of the remain- | ing five to win back the cup.
 The only approach to the present situation was in 1920 when sham rock W took the first two races One resulted when the American defender, Resolute, was disabled.
 The official time for today's windward leg showed that En- deavour's elapsed time was 1 hour IS minutes, 19 seconds, which was we'll under Vigilantes record. l Rainbow's corrected time for the windward beat was 1 hour, IS minutes and 34 seconds, also un- der the old record.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1934-09-18

Rainbow was also under the rec ord, her time being 3 hours, $ minutes and 42 seconds.
 It was an exciting race-a duel between the shippers.
 Endeavor was off shade behind but swept into the lead as the yachts rounded the first turn ana established a margin of more than minute and half on the second leg.
 Cruising smoothly on the wind. ward beat, Sopwith held his yacn' well to weather, swept into the sec ond turn with Rainbow Astern and held a good margin as the blue hulied craft boiled down to the finish to dim the hopes of Amer ica's defender.
 Sirens Roared Applause
 The sirens of the spectator flee roared as the challenger heelece proudly across the finish, firs, Britisher ever to capture the frs' two races of cup series.
 gopwith's victory today estab.. lished the speed of his big class boat in any kind of going. The challenger was kept off the wea- ther berth at the start, but beat Rainbow to the mark on the flrs' broad berth with straight sailing Sopwith's ability to get EndeavoI past Rainbow's bow on the 1O-mlle turn and take the weather berth probably won the race. She scored record-shatterlns second leg, footing to the 20-miie turn in 1:17.01 to outdistance the i record of Reliance set in 1905. She was only 5-minutes 5 and 2s seconds over the record on the nrs' turn.

 "The average citizen who under stands how closely security IS linked with the welfare of mutual financial institutions has ample cause for demanding assurances of protection for reasonable property rights, and he should know that his elective representatives in fed- erai, state and municipal assem- plies have the power to reestab- fish. confidence.
 Prosperity neither seeps down through the social structure from above, nor rises to the capitalist from the average man below.

New York, Sept 1S.-Five years of economic readjustment have wrought many changes in the fi- nancial and social order, but the average man still holds substantial property investments, a current investment survey of life in- surance and savings bank holdings.
 Of the 9S.249,042 life insurance policies in force with forty-four principal companies, the average face value is approximately SLIGO, and it is estimated that about 65,- 000,000 persons carry insurance, behind which there are admitted assets of $1S,227, ,6S6.544. Pointing out that the person insured is es- sentially capitalist, the survey shows that insurance funds are in vested in real estate to the extent of about 37 per cent of admitted assets and in obligations secured by governmental credit or by cor porate properties to the extent of S6 per cent.
 Each of the 13,6S6,947 savings bank depositors has an average or about $700 with total deposits amounting to $9,720,377,072, the survey continues, citing the fact that New York states 1SS savings banks hold real estate and mort gages to the extent of $3,562,095,- 900, in addition to $1,S53,702.0O0, bonds of governmental divisions and corporations.
 "Policyholders and savings bank depositors have been educated to believe they may withdraw their savings in cash at any time," the survey says. For this reason they seldom are consciou that their funds are not held in cash, but in fact are invested to earn the interest allowed at regular inter- vals. They are not likely to re- alize how political policies and economic conditions may influence the value of the resources in which their savings are invested, or the credit standing of those who have
