NEW RADIO SERIES
 STARTING MONDAY
Ray Fitzpatrick Featured in 'Mattatuck Man About
 TOwn' on WATR

"Mattatuck Man About Town," a series of radio programs based on an idea completely new to radio, will have its premiere over Station WATR at 6:45 p. m. Monday. Feat ured in the new air presentation will be Ray Fitzpatrick, radio editor of The Democrat and WATR news commentator, Sponsored by Matta- tuck Motors, Inc, official Ford deal- CT for Waterbury, the program will be heard at the same time each day from Monday through Friday.
 The new series will be entirely different from anything ever done in radio in Waterbury or, as far as can be learned, anywhere in the country. Ranging all the way from gossip of whats going on in Wa terbury to commentaries on local developments, and with the Man About Town covering the entire city in his air accounts of what's hap pening, and why, new series will give listeners the ''lowdown" on all in which they're interested. But des- cription in words doesn't even give a real inkling of what this new radio feature vii be like; the best thing to do Is to tune in regularly.
 Ray Fitzpatrick, who will serve as Mattatuck Motors Man About Town is known to most Waterburians through his news broadcasts and his daily radio column in the pages of The Democrat. His knowledge of Waterbury and its people, and his experience in covering assignments in dozens of fields as a local news papermari make him a logical choice to handle radio series of this type.
 Waterburians will be surprised and pleased when they hear Mattatuck Man About Town, beginning on WATR Monday. It's program de- signed to please WATR listeners, and the sponsor is confident that it will. Tune in WATR for the first of this different new series. Monday at 0:4b ?. m.

Hotels Valuation
 Questioned d By Gager
Receiver Takes Appeal to Superior Court From Board
 of Beliefs Estmate-List Filed

Charging that the city's valuation of the Hotel Elton property of the Almon c. Judd Go. is excessive, Att torney William Gager, receiver for the firm, today petitioned superior court for a reduction of the valua- ton. The action is an appeal from the ruling of the board of relief, which earlier this month informed Attorney Gager that the valuation placed on the property at West Main and Prospect streets would stand.
 List Filed
 In the petition, brought for the receiver by Attorney Harry Camp bell, it is stated that list of all taxable property of the Hotel Com pany was turned over to the board of assessors. On May l, 1885, the city placed the following valuations on the property: Land on which the hotel stand, $l2l,800; land on Pros- pect street in the rear of the hotel $29, 400; the hotel buildings, $279,- 700; personality, $42,500.
 The receiver states that he claim. ed that these valuations placed by the assessors were too high, anc that he entered protest. He took the matter to the board of relief and the latter body notified him on March 2 that the petition for lowering of the valuations set on the hotel property had been turned down.
 In the writt filed in superior court today, Attorney Gager pro- tests the valuations placed on the property of May l, 1885. He asks that the court lower the valuations of the board of tax commissioners and apportionment.
 City to Respond
 City attorneys will file an answer to the petition before the first week of April, when the action is return able to court.
 Attorney Gager has served as re- ceiver for the Hotel Company since March 2, 1884, when he fas appoint ed temporary receiver. A month later he was named permanent re- ceiver and has managed the affairs of the receivership since that time.

%AVeSt9 AsS4 VSA0'
 Lieutenant Detective Matthew Balanda, who investigated the burglary, said the stone was found well back in the store. It had broken a large, almost circular hole in the big plate glass door win- dow, and police believe 1t was thrown by person standing con- siderable distance from the store front.
 It is also possible, it was pointed out, that the stone may have been protected from the street by Q pass ing car, as oftentimes happens, and that @ passerby may have taken ad- vantage of the ready-made entry to ransack the premises.
 Benjamin Katz, proprietor of the store, told Lieutenant Detective Balanda that the cash was in a strong box, which was placed on one of the shelves. The rock used in the theft, brought to the office of Chief Inspector William P. Keegan this morning, weighed about two pounds.
