 Naval auxiliary craft dotted the route between Hawaii and Midway Island and the 46 plane could have clustered around a group of these ships for the night. But still moro likely was an overnight stop at French Frigate Shoals, Croal rect about 500 miles from Hono- lulu. {

 "It is, therefore, doubly impor- tant that it should embody your ideas and meet with your approval since, in the last analysis, it will re- quire your signature to become a law and the accompanying respon- sibility for the law must likewise be yours."
 The committee, wrestling with the problem since early in Febru- ary, halted its deliberations until the governor replied to Bradleys note. In his inaugural address in January the governor pointed out that changes were necessary in the law, especially as regarding tav- erng. He made no reference to sale by the drink.

BRADDOCK READY FOR LASKY TEST
 ON FRIDAY NIGHT
Workout Showed Jersey Irishmian to Be Fit;
 Good Prelims
(speflal to the Democratl

New York, March 19 = That James J. Braddock is in shape and rarin' to 60 was evidenced by the slashing, smashing workout he exhibited yesterday in preparation igor Friday nights scheduled fif- teen-rounder against Art Lasky. at Madison Square Garden.
 A large gallery, including a dozen boxing experts, watched the Jersey kayo king go through his paces. Another interested spectator at Stillman's gym was Hiram Demp- sey, Jacks dad.
 Braddock spared three rounds with Don Petrin and two against Mickey McAvoy. He smashed through Petrin's defense with hard rights to the jaw. Don fought back hard but he couldn't hold James J. at bay. McAvoy, too, found the going very rought every second they were in there.
 All Set
 Before climbing through the ropes Braddock scaled 188 pounds. A long siege of training has put the Jerseyite. in the proverbial pink. etc. He was at the peak of his form the day his original fight was with Lasky was called~off. This was on February l.
 Naturally the voluble Joe Gould had lots to say about MT Brod- docks fistic prowess.
 ''We'll knock out that California quitter in four or five heats," de- clared Gould while the quiet, soft spoken Braddock listened with rapt attention. He refused to yes his manager. 'I hope to win," was all James J. would say.
 Another capicity crowd will sit in at the fistic fireworks. The call for tickets at this early time ap- breaches the demand for last Fri day nights sellout. The prices range from $1 to $4 plus tax.
 Promoter James J. Johnston has arranged another cracker jack sup porting card, consisting of an eight round semi final, two sizes and a curtain raiser of four rounds. He has paired the gladiators as fol- lows:
 Steve Dudas vs Tom Patrick, Ralph >Ficucello vs Buck Everett, Gus Lesnevich vs John Anderson, and Gordon Donohue vs Sid Cohen. There are four Golden Gloves win ners on the card. They include Ficucello, Lesnevich, Dudas ana Everett.

 FINE PROSPECT. FOR COLLEGE TEAM.
Naugatuck Swimmer Made Excellent Showing
 Recently

Naugatuck, MarcE 19.-Nauga- tuck swimmers are very proud of the feat of Ed Poscavage "" swimming team member, who as related in The Democrat yesterday, captured fourth place in tKe 100- yard backstroke race at the na- tional interscholastics race at Yale university Saturday.
 This means that Poscavage beat many of the cream of the country. Local persons who saw the race point out that Poscavage clipped the record of the winner of the state interscholastics last year by three seconds in the race. Last year the state interscholastics back stroke was won in one minute s1O seconds and record time was set for 1t then.
 Saturday Poscavage swam it in one minute seven seconds. Both he and the man who finished third reached out to touch the end of the pool at the same time and the other mans fingers grazed the end a fraction of a second before those of the local youth, according to the judges.
 So close were the second third and fourth place swimmers that spectators and even the trained lo- cal swimmers present could not tell in what order the three swim mers finished. Only the decision of the judges settled the matter.
 Poscavage is a senior in high school and has not yet reached his peak, according to local friends. Unfamiliarity with the length of the pool slowed down his time somewhat. The pool is longer than he has been used to swimming in ana usually he would start to slow up before reaching the turns, not estimating absolutely correctly the length of the pool.
 Can Do Better
 Seymour SQuires, captain of the Naugatuck team, estimates when Poscavage gets used to this length of pool so as to be able to swim fast into the turns, he will clip a full two sseconds off the mark he made at Yale Saturday. AS this race was won in one minute five and a fraction seconds, he would have @ good chance of finishing first in the country if this predic- tion comes true.
 He has been improving with every race and his prospects for wide recognition in the future are quite bright. He is just one of the many boys whose ambitions to be- come fast swimmers have been en- couraged by the wise management of the local swimming team.
 He resides on Bripdge street, Union City.
