"BRILLIANT. MARRIAGE" BEST
OF RECENT lFTLM OFFERINGS
The Vance will have good picture
in Brilliant Marriage" Monday and
Tuesday for the first time locally,
should open it's doors wide and pre-
pare for plenty Of paying customers.
For here is picture that merits plen-
ty superlatives in the way of descrip
ton. It is the most penetrating, the
most plausible, and the most enter
tanning film that has happened along
for quite while.
brilliant Marriage" was adapted
for the screen by Paul Perez, who
has displayed a deft and strikingly
new technique in converting this
Ursula Farrott novel to the screen.
Brilliant Marriage" tells the story
of Madge Allison Joan Marsh) a
wealthy debutante daughter of the So
cially prominent Allisons. Madge is
slated to marry eligible Dick Taylor
John Marlowe) and their union is
regarded by socialites as a most bril-
liant marriage, for it means the al
lance of huge fortunes and high-rank
ing social families Madge discovers
that she is merely the adopted
daughter of the Allisons and that her
real mother, Mrs. Allison's sister, has
died in French prison, where she
had been sentenced to serve a life
term for murder.
Wit hthis family skeleton staring
her in the face, Madge refuses to go
through with her marriage despite
the pleas if her foster parents. In
stead she starts out on her own. She
meets newspaper reporter, Garry
Dane Cray Walker) but their ro-
nance is hindered by Sally Patrick
Inez Courtney one of Garry's cast
off flames. Sally, determined to re-
cover Garry for herself, takes advant-
age of her position as reporter to
break a sensational story that she
expects will turn the trick. The story
however, serves an entirely different
purpose, and Sally is further from
her goal than ever. Complications
pile up thick and fast, and the story
races along offering both intensely
dramatic and highly amusing Sc
queces.

ic field on Watertown avenue was net disclosed. However, the various endorsements received are in part:
 Endorsements
 William K. Schofield, athletic di- rector at Crosby High school: "The proposed athletic field meets with my heartiest approval"
 Jacob D. Rieger, coach at Leav- enworth High school: We wish to compliment the officials of the city of Waterbury for picking such an ideal location for an athletic field"
 Dr. Thomas J. Condon, superin- tendent of schools: "This letter is to express hearty approval of Q fed- eral project for the construction of a municipal athletic field on Watertown avenue. Both the loca- ton and the plans, which I have seen, are eminently satisfactory. The site is ideal, and plans are suitable, the need is imperative"
 James w. Lee, athletic director at Wilby High school: "The location is ideal, the availability from the standpoint of the trafic problem is made easy, the spectators will be well handled and, most important, the health and safety of the boys and girls playing will not be a source of worry as is sometimes the case at the present field"
 Mayors Comment
 Mayor Frank Hayes: Tt has come to my attention that the project known as the athletic field project in Waterbury has been criticized in certain quarters on the grounds that 1t is rnis-located, that 1t is uneconomic, that 1t involves flood dangers, that 1t is inadequate as a relief project and that 1t has in- adequate sponsorship. In my opin- ion this field is not ynis-located. It is no farther from the so-called center of Waterbury than are the various inadequate fields now being

|CIvITkN CLUB SPONSORS TRIP
Four Scouts to Get Trip Through White
 Mountains

David Babson, local scout exe- cutive, announced this morning that the Civitan Club of Waterbury will take four leading scouts of Matta- tuck Council on a four day trip to the White Mountains in the latter part of August. The scouts will be selected on a merit basis. Each troop will choose one scout and from this group of AS a committee of scout commissioners, to be an- nounced later, and 8 committee from the Civitan Club, made up of Gre- gory Lynch, William Van Tassel and Vernon 0. Abel will select the four leading scouts.
 This afternoon at 500 o'clock there will be 8 meeting of the ac- tivities committee at which final plans for the Lake Quassapaug out- ing will be discussed. Ernest Bossel is chairman of this group and has announced that the rally will start in the afternoon and wind up with a campfire at night.
 Tonight in Wolcott, the members of district c of the local council will meet. Commissioners Ernest Wilcox and Emil Detlefsen will be in charge. Supper will be served before the business meeting gets underway.

They bear the following admoni- ton: "This ticket is a warning for you to have this vehicle inspected at the nearest motor vehicle in- spection lane." It is understood the cooperation of the local police de- partment will be asked in distribut- ing the notices, although Superin" tendent of Police William J. Roach declared this morning he had aS yet received no such request.
 Warning already given out in Meriden bear the signatures of both the police chief of that city and Motor Vehicle Commissioner Mich ael A. Connor, and police in Meri- den are said to have been given the notices for distribution to cars along the streets. Many of the mo- tices are also distributed to drivers halted on the road by inspectors.
 The state department of motor vehicles last week announced that only about one-third of the cars in the state had been checked, with less than two months to elapse be- fore the lanes will be closed. The ratio at the local lane on Thomas ton avenue was reported to be the

used for sports.
 Tt should also be remembered that the city has owned this site for many years and while 1t has been more or less unfit it has been used yearly for athletic and recreational events carried out by various so- cieties. For over 40 years circuses, picnics, horse races, ball games, football, baseball and soccer games have been played on this field. It is the only field within a proper distance of the center that lends itself to this type of development. The unecononic feature, in my opinion, is negligible, the immense cost of purchasing Q site being saved because of ownership by the city.
 Regarding flood dangers, our city engineer, whose opinion all au- thorities in our state respect, as- Sures me that the present plans will protect it amply from any danger. The criticism that 1t is inadequate as Q relief project is easily an- swered by the number of men at present employed"
 Cashln's Opinion
 Harry x. Cashin, president of the Waterbury City Amateur Baseball league: T am in favor of this To- cation. The site is ideal and the dis- tance from the center of Waterbury to the new field is about the same as to Hamilton park where the Wa terbury City Amateur Baseball league entertains thousands of baseball fanS."
 Walter II. Deacon, president of Mattatuck Council of Boy Scouts: Tn the writer's opinion the loca- ton is as satisfactory as any which could be found in the city, being easily accessible and not too far from the center of the town."
 David F. Babson, Waterbury Boy Scout executive: "A field located right in the city, as 1t will be, with adequate parking facilities, will fur nish an ideal location for Boy Scout janborees."
 State Commissioners
 Senator Joseph H. Lawlor: "The location and parking facilities of the new field more than offset the dis advantages of distance. The wide use of the automobile today brings the new field comparatively near. The high school coaches, who should know, have pointed out that the athletic fields of other cities are even farther away than is the driv- ing park. Willow park in New Bri- tain, which is the envy of every school coach in the state, is Q good distance from the center of the city. As the same applies to every large city in the state, the argument against the Waterbury field is hard- ly convincing"

Nicholas zappone, Joseph DeLuca, John Dipietro, William Ferrari and Patrick DeLeon were last night named Q committee to arrange plans to stimulate further interest by young Italian men in the city in the affairs of the Italian Demo- cratic club.

It was explained that the object is to persuade young voters to affl- Hate with the club and with the democratic party as Q whole and to conduct educational studies in civ- les, social developments and politics.
