 Telesco Ring Leader
 As a result of the testimony oi Cervone and Sorriero, states prison sentences were handed out by Judge Frank P. McEvoy, who pre- sided at the trial in superior court here in January. One of the men Joseph Telesco, was described in the trial as the ring-leader and given the stiffest prison sentence five to nine years.
 Local police have noted since the crew went to jail and prison, there has been a decided lessening of the number of holdups in Waterbury. One officer said there has not been gasoline station noldup since the group were sentenced.
 After the trial, when the court had found all of the accused guilty, Assistant States Attorney William B. Fitzgerald asked the court to impose stiff sentences, recalling that there had been number of daring holdups in Waterbury over period of several months and that if stiff sentences were passed out, 1t might serve as 8 lesson to keep others from attempting the law violations.
 Use Gun In Holdup
 The actual charge against Teles- co and the other accused was based on the holdup of gasoline station at North Main and Elizabeth streets when armed men entered the sta- ton and at gunpoint held off the attendants while the cash register was rifled of its contents. Strong evidence was presented against Te- lesco to show he had planned the robbery. ...
 Cervone's testimony was the states strongest evidence offered the witness telling of having beer brought here for the job. Prior te the gas station holdup, several 10. cal bus and trolley car operators had been held up.

budget. The President, he said, had repeatedly advocated the passage of laws which he knew were con- trary to its spirit, He also charged that there was "too close a connec- ton between votes and the allot- ment of money to states for relief"
 Melvin Levy of Harvard, said there were more important aspects to the government spending program than the actual outlay of money. People had to be fed, he said, regardless of cost.
 Albert c. Richey of Yale declared that industrial stagnation and poor business had resulted from the NRA; and that the AAA had had the same effect upon agriculture. He said the choice before the American people is Roosevelt or Recovery"
 Lorne Rickert of Harvard de- fended the NRA. He said it had been instrumental in abolishing 'monopolistic methods practiced by the industries for years" He also spoke in defense of public utilities regulation.
 Incompetent
 Edward A. Raymond concluded the argument for Yale, stating, after his summary, that President Roose. welt lis showing a terrific incom- pentency in the fact of imitation.

k1aTVaTQ upQelQ Ukle dIIItLHHIAVS on the question: Resolved, that Franklin D. Roosevelt deserves the support and confidence of the Amer ican people"
 Arranged by the educational de- pertinent of the Y. M. c. A. under the direction of Arthur L. Purinton, the debate marked the first of the campus meetings between teams representing the two universities. Mayor Frank Hayes presided, and the judges included Attorney Theo- dore V. Meyer, Dr. Louise Dilling- ham, Judge John F. McDonough of Naugatuck, Mrs. Joseph J. Davis, and Dr. Thomas J. Condon.
 A dinner for the teams, coaches, and members of the committee on arrangements, held at the Water bury club, preceded the debate.
 Attorney J. Warren Upson, CO., chairman of the committee in charge, introduced Mayor Hayes, who said that the vote of both judges and audience was to be based on the merits of the debate rather than the question proper. He ex- pressed the belief that in Water bury the New Deal would continue to be given support.
 Personal Liberties
 Irving R. Murray of Harvard was the first speaker. He pointed out that while much has been said about the loss of freedom as re- suit of New Deal policies, the final answer might DC found in a per- sonal inventory. Have you lost any of your customary hberties?" he asked.
 He urged his audience to keep in mind two pictures-"one of this country in 1892, when President Roosevelt was elected in a great national plebiscite; the other. of the country in 1885. One is dark picture and the other bright one. MT. Murray confined his opening speech to seven minute period in which he gave facts and figures sup- porting his argument. At the con- clusion of the debate, he was al- lowed a five minute rebuttal irI which he made Q stirring appeal fol the support of a man "who has put humanity above the pocketbook ane has done something for his neigh bors." He was warmly applaudet by the audience.
