of it is now owned by Louis Leo pold of Waterbury, who is in prison. The Leopold property is being man. aged by Lewis Medin, brother-in- law of the owner. The Milwaukee Mechanics Insurance company has an attachment on the property arising out of the arson case in which Leopold was convicted. Such damage claims must be settled be- fore the land is secured. When this is cleared, alteration is expected to start.
 The local chamber of commerce and Rep. William F. McDermott have been active to secure improve ment on the curve, for some time.
 Traffic Light Changed
 Change has been made in the col- or of the walk" sign at the traffic light at the intersection of Maple and Main streets. This light had been red with the word walk" printed over it. The stop sign was also red. Now the walk sign is amber in color.
 This is because of a new state law which requires that there will not be two red signs in a traffic light. The oroginal color scheme of the light was red, amber and green as it is now but there was much approval of the change to two reds.
 Autoists and pedestrians are not very much pleased with the idea of changing back to amber. Many drivers unaccuStomed to local signs are in the habit of starting their cars when they see the yellow sign. This make it tougher for for pedes- trains and some believe more acci- dents may result. However 1t is nothing the local police department has any power to act independently upon. The state law requires the change and must be obeyed. A brush fire on North Spring street was extinguished yesterday by local firemen. It was the first blaze in several days.
 Grange Party Friday

A sharp drop in the number of drivers arrested for passing stop signs and the fact that not one op- orator was halted yesterday for passing a red light led police today to believe that their Several-weeks old safety campaign within the city limits is having an effect.
 In contrast to previous days, in which as many as 20 drivers have been nabbed in one day for ignoring stop signs, and many others halted for passing signal lights, there were only two drivers stopped yes- terday for not obeying stop signs. The two each paid g at headquar- terS.
 A drop in parking violations was also noted yesterday, only 19 tags being given out.

Naugatuck, Dec. 1S-Unless speedy action is taken, the annual police mems ball will not be held on New Years eve. Inquiry today revealed that no committee or chairman has yet been named and tickets have not yet been printed.
 Just what is the cause of the lack of action could not be learned. With New Years eve less than two weeks away, it seems quite improbable that any action will be taken now to hold the ball at that time.
 It was said that the fact so many other activities are held on New Years eve thus limiting the attend ance may be one of the reasons for the delay this year.
 EIks Plan Dance
 Naugatuck lodge of Elks is plan ming a New Years eve dance and dinner. Edward J. Lingenheld is chairman. The Royal Garnets or chestra has been secured to furnish the music.
 "A novel form of entertainment will be offered at meeting of the Chil- dren of Mary society tonight in St. Mary's church hall. An amateur hour program will be presented. Children of the parish will take part and prizes will be awarded the winners.
 The program will be in charge of Bernice Neal and Madeline Baker. There will be two Christmas dinners as door prizes.
 To Award Guilt
 "A beautiful silk quilt will be awarded during the card party to- night in Pythian hall by the Amer ican Legion auxiliary. Tn addition there will be the usual prizes for high scores.
 The board of warden and bur- gesses will decide after an inspec- ton of the property tonight whe- ther permission for operating rol- Ter skating pavilion in the Rubin building on South Main street will be granted.
 Discussion of this featured sur- prise meeting of the board of war den and burgesses last night. War den John J. Sheridan contended that such permission should be given and Fire Marshal Michael F. Shea who has twice refused such permission, maintained his ground.
 The entrance is steep and nar- row as is also the fire escape, the fire marshal pointed out. The hall is on the third floor and there is great danger in getting people out of the building with roller skates, he added.
 MT. Shea said state law forbids amusements being held on third floor unless the building is fire proof. MT. Rubin claimed the build ing is fire proof, stating fire there year ago proved this. The oil burner caught fire but the flames did not reach in any of the stores of the hall, he said. Mir. Shea ad- mitted this fire was extinguished without much damage but declared that when the firemen cut @ hole in the stairs, the flames were there and it would only have been short

COMEDY HIT
"Cood.by Again" Is W ell
Staged by Cue and
Curtain, Club.

"Good-by Again" said hello again
very gayly to Washington last night q
the Wardman Park Theater, being put
through its slightly batty PAGES by the
members of the Cue and Curtain Club
of George Washington University
who, in turn. were led along their va
rious ways by Harold Weinberger's
very fine direction.
"Good-by Again." which. as you
know, was one of last seasons popular
hits on Broadway and which had Itself
done by the National Players last year
Is a more or less insane piece about q
happy and slightly demented writer
his patient secretary, married
woman, her husband and sundry other
relatives and incidental persons. all
winding up in some very clever and
staccato lunacies.
The players of the Cue and Curtain
Club present these lunacies in a very
acceptable fashion. They have a
passable first act, much more than
passable second act and q high-speed
whoop-it-up, wo-laugh-a- minute third
act. All Of them have lot of fun with
the brittle dialogue and in projecting
it display q combination Of their own
abilities with Mr.. Weinberger's knach
for getting much out of Q modern
three-act comedy.
Joseph Danzansky has been excel.
lently cast as the befuddled young
man about whom the piece centers
and he returns the compliment BY
delivering Of himself superb per.
formance. He has q gay good time

spontaneity and in general being very

Washington's Spring theatrical sea-
son will open April l. when Brock
Pemberton will offer his newest pro-
duction. Ceiling Zero" at the Ma
tional Theater. Rehearsals are now
being personally conducted by Mr..
Pemberton and Antoinette Perry.
The last Washington offering OF
Mr.. Pemberton and Miss Perry was
the successful Strictly Dishonorable,
and their Personal Appearance" is
a hit on Broadway.
Ceiling Zero" is the first legiti-
mate stage play written by Frank
Wead, who, despite his success as a
writer of both fiction and stories for
motion pictures, is best known in
Washington as Comdr Wead OF the
United States Navy, an ace flyer, who,
in 1924 set the world endurance rec
ord in seaplane.
While Ceiling Zero" has an avi-
alton background, it is not flying"
story. but deals with the lives and
loves, the humor and pathos Of those
intrepid pioneers who travel the sky
ways.
Osgood Perkins, whose most recent
engagement was in Noel Coward's
Point Valaine," has one of the lead
ing roles in Ceiling Zero" Mr.
Perkins played one of his first big
parts under Mr. Pemberton's manage
ment in Loose Ankles"
