 of Assault With
 Intent To Kill Tuesday
Judge Frederick PeasIey to Preside at Trial of Brook I Iyn Resident Accused of Shooting lO.Year-Od 1 GirI-Caused Sensation in NeighbOrhOOd

Tho next morning, however, Tela- tives of the accused, whom he was alleged to have threatened, called the police and said he was seen in the woods near the Plank road. sgrIllo being armed caused police to send out extra police to round up the accused. He ultimately gave himself up at headquarters.
 The actual charges against Sgrillo in superior court arise from his alleged shooting of 10 year old Mary Cristollo of Charles street.
 The girl, with a companion, was passing in front of Sgrillo's home, when the accused Is alleged to have come out of the house, firing a .32 caliber revolver. The Cristollo girl dropped to the walk, and her friend, aware of the girls frequent fainting spells, thought Mary had tainted.
 It was not until a few days later, that Detective Sergeant Henry Johnson suggested the girl might have been shot and she WaS brought to the Waterbury hospital. Inves- tigation revealed bullet lodged m the girls skull. She was admitted on November 7th and after the operation to remove the bullet was complete, the girl was discharged on December 18th.

 "ProfeSsor" Nelson Clark, once progressive candidate for governor of Massachusetts, tried to prevent their graduation. He wrote Gov. Herbert II. Lehman from his cell that he led them astray, that he had pushed them along criminal careers that. ended in the murder of c policeman, and that therefore death was too severe . penalty.

He is GO years old and IS serving 10 years for receiving sto- len property.
 The youths died undemonstrative- iy at three 3-minute intervals be- ginning at II D. m.

 At Least Two Years
 Miller estimated 1t would take Italy ct least two years to conquer Ethiopia, and said Italian officers held the same views. Stories re- garding fever and illness among Ital- Ian troops were greatly exaggerated, he said. Up until the time left, the rate of sickness was very low, he said. Miller pointed out, however, that the rainy season might tell a different story.
 Ethiopian Report
 Dessye, January 70 -- CUP)-- -- Ethiopian warriors, their fury at white heat after months of restive restraint, are attacking Italians on all fronts, reports to Emperor Halle selnssie's war headquarters indi- cated today. Aided by rains pouring weeks before they were due. the war; riors are reported to be attacking at every possible point, hoping to break the Italian morale which iS believed here to be below par. For weeks the Italians nave made no hd- vance, while Ethiopian guerrilla bands have constantly attacked iSo- lated outposts at night. Reports to headquarters today told of an Ethl- opian nnnihilation of an Italian tank and machine gun detachment on the far southern front. in which many Italians were killed and one officer captured. The reports said the Ethi- opians used tanks, and these were believed to be the ones captured long ago nt Analc and reconditioned for use against their original owners. Minor Engagements
 From the northern front there were reliable indications that Ethi- opians were generally successful in a number of minor engagements and that the Italians were unable to halt the fierce attac:ss Of the war riors. It was emphasized that in no case of q reported engagement was Q mass attack meant. For months. lead- CTS have hammered into the minds of the fierce warriors. That lt would be suicide for them to attack the Italians except in small, highly mobile bands. News from south. as I well as north, Of the rains is of in- calculable benefit to the Ethiopian high command. It is hoped here that the Italian mechanized units will be imm0bilized and that the armies will be or equal footing.
