Has Enough Troubles.


Ut MAY be said at the outset that
the A. A. U. has not jumped at the
proposal that the foot ball or
ganization now in process of forma-
ton be taken under its wing. 1t has
plenty of troubles already without
adding foot ball to the list In fact.
the first move made by Judge Ma
honey's committee was to remove the
A. A. U. appendage from the official
title of the projected organization.
Yet, on the other hand. the char
acter of those back of the plan to
organize and conduct amateur foot
ball, their records as athletes in their
day and their present status in sport
entitle them to a sympathetic hearing.
This they are receiving from the Ma
honey committee and I think no mis-
take will be made in predicting that
the A. A. U. will decide to rest its
paternal hand upon the shoulders
of the new organization.
Authorities of the great amateur
athletic body appreciate as deeply as
anyone phase of foot ball which the
public throughout the country must
have noted while at the same time it
has not given it serious consideration

amateur foot ball on an or
ganized national basis, the A. A. u,
with which the promoters of the idea

COMPENSATION FOR
 WIDOW OF VICTIM
Danbury Co. Employe Was Killed in Crash--Wife in
 Italy Awarded $l,924

An award of $1,924.S0 to a widow in the town of Borgo a
 Mazzano, Italy, was handed down
 this morning by Compensation
 Commissioner James M. Lynch,
 who finds the woman, Mrs. Egle S..
 Ricaduti, was the legal dependent
 of Ugo Ricaduti, killed by a truck
 on the Warren-Ken road last summer.
 The finding states that records

 were offered as testimony by Pas quale DeCicco, Italian vice-consular
 agent at New Haven, during the
 hearing of the case.
 Ricaduti was working for the Osborne Barnes Co. of Danbury,
 who is the respondent in this case,
 when he met with his fatal ac- cident. The finding states he was struck by truck last July 18th
 and died shortly afterward. The claim was then presented against the company by the widow. through the law firm of Mascolo, Mcknight
 & Dauch of Waterbury.
 The question before the court was whether the widow was being
 supported regularly by the de-
 ceased at the time of his death. The commissioner so finds. The award is to be paid in lump sum amounting to $1,724.s0 and in ad- dition. the insurer for the Os- borne Barnes Co. is to pay the
 regulation fee of $200. The award
 represents payment of $6 weekly for 312 weeks, the maximum amount under the law. Attorney
 Martin C. Gormley appeared for the respondents.

'ANew Raw Deal For The Forgotten Horse

Smokers who say they'd walk a mile for a certain brand of cigarettes have noth- on Waterbury's horses who have to walk much farther than that for a drink-of wa ter, of course. Gradually the city fathers are forgetting about old Dobbin and last night they heaped further in- suit on poor told faithfur' when at a meeting of the board of works it was directed that the watering trough at the corner of Piedmont and Baldwin streets be removed. Local horses were said to have adopted an 1T don't care" ate titudc today, however, be. cause the city never even bothered to keep the trough filled with water for consid- cradle length of time.
 Only two watering troughs remain in the city now. One Is the Carrie Welton fountain fin Exchange place and the other one is located in North Square. So If horses get thirsty down the west end, down the south end or out the east end all they have to do is trOt right into Exchange place or up to North Square. Horses working in and around the north end are the objects of much jealousy on the part of other horses working elsewhere in the city.

FIGHT CONTINUES
 AGAINST FOULOE
New Hampshire Democrat Presses Charges Made
 By E. w. Goss

Admitted to be one of the req sons for the defeat of former Con- gressman E. W. Goss when he sought. return to office last fall, the custer proceedings against Major General Benjamin D. Foul ois of Washington, Conn.,, are now apparently headed for the office of President Roosevelt according to latest reports. Elk Congressman Goss, as a member of the house committee on military affairs at Washington, D. C., was one of hte principals in the fight to oust the Connecticut man from his post as commander of the army air forces It was the insistence on the part of Goss that cost him many votes in the Washington, Conn.,, end of the fifth congressional district, re- liable information discloses.
 Major J. Joseph Smith of this city. a democrat and present con- gressman from the fifth district, Is now a member of the house com mittee on military affairs. He, however, has not become notice- ably mixed up in the Foulois case, Ex- Congressman Goss was an ad- mitted foe of the Connecticut man, however.
 Rogers Insistcnt.
 Now Representative Rogers, democrat, of New Hampshire, chairman of the subcommittee oil military affairs, has announced that he Is going to carry the custer proceedings right to the desk of President Roosevelt. Furthermore. he declares he Is going to try to push a bill through congress oust- ing Foulois. Rogers claims that he feels he might have sufficient votes to override a presidential veto of such measure. This, of course, remains to be seen. r
 Major General Foulois is we'll known in Connecticut military circles and his following in the rural section of the fifth congress sional district is known to be very strong. As a result of his direct attack on the Washington, Conn. man, ex-Congressman Goss suf- fered severe losses in votes in the country towns of the districts. On the other hand, Congressman Smith has refrained from taking any ac- tive part in the fight to oust the general. The subcommittee of the house committee on military affairs is handling the affair entirely.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1935-06-19

Several more civil actions have been settled out of the superior and common pleas courts since yester- day. The total damages claimed in the suits amount to over $50,000. The reason for the settlement of the actions is because the courts are nearing the end of the court term and the attorneys for both sides desire to clean up as much business as possible before the summer.
 The heaviest damages sought in the suits settled yesterday and to- day were claimed in the action of Annie L. Goodrich against Dennis J. Noonan. The plaintiff asked $25,000. The suit actually went on trial before Judge Frederick M. Peasley and jury but was settled In the afternoon. The plaintiff sued for permanent injuries she suffered in fall on the defendants prop erty at 263 Grove street, June G., 1884. Mascolo, Mcknight and Dauch represented the plaintiff. Judge John r.

 More in Danger
 Although several of those taken to the hospital were severely in- jured, doctors expected all to re- cover. At mid-morning no names had been placed on the danger list.
 The accident occurred on U. S. Route IA soon after the bus had left Warren, where the orchestra had entertained at an American Legion convention, for Athol, Mass.
 Police said an automobile driven by Mrs. Bird apparently sideswiped the bus, which immediately went out of control. Torn from its bag gage trailer, the bus careened along the road, crushed into another au- tomobile, and plunged into a ditch.
 One side of the bus was ripped off, windows were shattered. and the injured were strewn over the highway, some being unconscious when picked up.
 Mrs. Ames, Miss Lamb and Mrs. Smith were riding in Mrs. Birds car, which also was demolished.
