COSS ADVOCATES
 MORE ATHLETICS
More Playground Activ. itieS to Prevent Crime
 Will Aid Community

More municipal athletics and playground activities as crime pre- ventives were advocated in a letter sent yesterday to Waterbury citizens by John H. Goss, who is sponsor here for the National Recreation Association.
 Quoting a prominent educator who said, Recreation must be enormously increased if we are to prevent the country from becoming breeding place for youthful crim- inals," MT. Goss stated that the boys who were getting into difficult ties with the law were turning to crime because of desire for excite ment and adventure.
 "The force which iinpels them is the same which America so prized in her pioneers-the spirit which made their grandfathers cross the ocean, conquer the west, and har- ness the natural resources of this great country" his letter stated.
 Tt would be Q tragedy to kill this spirit, but unless we furnish con- structive outlets for its expression, we shall have to pay heavily for the distress and suffering and loss to society which follows the crimes of juvenile offenders.
 we cannot create new lands for youth to explore, but we can find new frontiers of adventure for them. At the present time, recreation pro- vides the best opportunity. There is excitement and chance to excel in games and sports, risk and daring in a high dive or in an athletic

Wallace Beery, John Boles and Barbara Stanwyck together for the first time in "A Message to Garcia" and "A Connecticut Yankee" with Will Rogers and Myrna Loy are the current attraction at Polls and will be shown today for the last times.
 "A Message to Garcia" Q picturiza- ton of an historical event which happened in 1898 during the Span. American war offers Wallace Beery, as well as his co-stars, John Boles and Barbara Stanwyck roles that they all excel in. Taken in the interior of Cuba, It's locale is different, and the peril, excitement, romance and drama experienced in the making of this unusual picture will thrill you.
 The Waterbury Democrat carried full details of this event on it's front page June IS, 1898.
 "A Connecticut Yankee" with Will Rogers and Myrna Loy is being shown at the request of hundreds who wished to see this beloved comedian again. Mark Twain's droll story is especially suited for Rogers and millions throughout the coun- try think that "A Connecticut Yan- kee" was his best picture.

 These shows are booked direct from New York and compare with the best seen on Broadway. Freddie Hall will be master-of ceremonies and present he acts in his own inc imitable manner, assisted by the maestro" Gus Meyers and the Poli theater orchestra, the largest house orchestra ever assembled in local theater.

Al May Shun Convention

Reports from New York that ex- Governor Al Smith will avoid the democratic national convention and allow an alternate to sit in his place with the Tammany delegates, ale though unconfirmed, are readily credited in Washington.
 Politicians do not see anything Al could do at Philadelphia ex- cept, accentuate by his presence his isolation in the face of con- vention almost unanimously sup porting Roosevelt, to whom he is bitterly opposed.
 Voting alone among the Tam many delegates against the pres- ident, he might easily tempt a large mass of delegates to ridicule. And Al knows as well as any insider here that controlling politicians in the party are all set to rig the gall leries for a booing party in case he plans to attack the New Deal from the platform or the convention floor.
