 SessiOn-Seyera COntinuances Granted

Eight cases in which arrests were made for violations of the motor vehicle law were given hearings by Judge Edward Mascolo in lengthy session of city court.

 Capaldo was arrested by Motor patrolmen Begg and Murphy after an accident on Thomaston avenue on the evening of March 1 in which the car he was driving knocked down 50 feet of highway fence and struck another car. Both officers said this morning they believed Capaldo was intoxicated at the time of his arrest.
 They said they picked him up as he was walking toward Waterville, and that he was staggering. Lieut.. John Dunphy, desk officer, also said in his opinion Capaldo was under the influence.
 Capaldo said he was going to Wa terville for tow-car. The driver of the other machine, Stanley Klaneski of Thomaston testified that Capaldo had said something about tow car" when he left the scene of the accident. Homer Wooster, of Water

New Testing Lane
 Chosen For City

Motor vehicle checkups schcd- ulcd to start here April l4th in c0nf0rmance with the new act passed by the 1885 legislature re- guiring semi-annual tests of all cars will be carried out this time on Th0maston avenue. Wilbur L. Cross. IT,, of the state motor vehicle department conferred with Mayor Frank Hayes, Superinten- dent of Police William J. Roach and Assistant City Engineer Charles s. Root at the city hall this morning and decided upon the location of the new testing area.
 Last fall the testing was car ried out on Freight street but such traffic tieup was caused that 1t was decided to seek a new site for the 1936 spring testing.
 The new lane will be located on ThOmastOn avenue between West Main street and the over head bridge several hundred yards to the north. Records show that the state owns a strip about 90 feet wide along one side of the highway. The motor vehicle de- pertinent will use its own property and it's own booth.
 The period of testing will close in July.

Contributions continued to pour into the Red Cross office this morn- ing and following the tabulation of donations received in the mail and by personal delivery 1t was an- announced at noon that $8,908 had been realized to date. This mornings contributions amounted to $323.
 Extension Awaited
 No word has been received in connection with an anticipated ex- tension of the local quota to $l0,- 900, but it was announced the local drive will exceed that amount with in the next few days. Mrs. Edith Ladd, chairman of the executive committee, and John M. Burrall, head of the flood relief drive, wish to express their thanks to the don- ors of small amounts, without which the drive would never have been the success it is at the present time. It was pointed out perusal of the contributing list showed only a few large individual donations and that those persons who have given their dollar or their fifty cents are the ones mainly responsible for the present total.
 A donation of $217.21 was also re- ceived from the city hall at late hour this morning, but due to the fact all employees names have not been included on the list, the amount has not been included in today's total.
 There have also been many dona- tions received at Red Cross head quarters and at local clothing and food stations to date which have rot been accounted for. Inasmuch as there are no names to go by,

$45,OOO Actions Against Chain Stores Not to GO Be- fore Jury Until Tuesday-Evidence Still Underway

Evidence of the plaintiffs is still under way in the two suits, and there seemed no possibility this af- ternoon that the cases would go to the jury before Tuesday. Conse- quently, Judge Simpson will hold session in one court room, while Judge McEvoy will continue the trial of the $45,000 civil suits in another court room.
 Caruso claims damages of $35 900, and Miss Marangio asks $10,000 for injuries they suffered last March when struck by First National truck at Walnut and Cherry streets. Caruso claims that the injuries have seriously impaired his sight. hear ing, taste and smell, and that his ailments will grow worse despite competent medical treatment. In- volved medical testimony has been offered thus far.
 Attorneys William B. Fitzgerald and John Membrino are appearing for the plaintiffs and Attorney Martin Gormley appears for the defendant.
 Trial of the two actions began last Thursday, but had to be started all over again when juror was excused Tuesday and new man was se- | lected.

Rainy Day, Pay Day For WPA Employees

All WPA workers in the city will receive pay checks this aft ernoOn for the period ending March 21. The entire period lasted from March ! to the 2l. Since the close of the last per- i0d only five days have elapsed and 1t is apparent that the rec cent meeting of all timekeepers in the city, with a view to less ening the interval between the last day of work and pay day, has had results. Pay checks have been speeded up by only a day, but compared to some of the delays during the past months, there is quite an im- provement evident. The work CTS will be paid off by Paymas- ter L. J. Lyons of the New Ha- ven office at the municipal garage.
