NINE INJURED BY
 HTT-RUN DRIVER

Cleveland, June 19-(UP)-Police arrested Fred Wall, 2s year old steel worker today as the driver of Q hit- and-run car which crashed into l9 men standing Tn . safety zone last night. Wall was found with Q girl companion sitting in his car in the garage where he keeps 1t. He was ordered held without bond by Prosecutor J. ]. II. Chizek Of subur- ban Newburg Heights where the ac- cident occurred. Police said Wall admitted crashing into the men, ell of them steel workers, as they waited in the safety zone for Q street car.
 Wall told officers that he was tray- cling about 36 miles an hour, saw the men but was unable to turn his car because the gtreeing Ynechao- ism damned. He said his brakes were new and could not explain why his car did not stop when he ap- piled them. Nine of the 10 were in hospitals in serious condition. The other 10 were treated for cuts and bruises and released. Wall and c friend, Alex Lenatorski, 24, told po- lice they had been on party with two girls and had, had Q few drinks shortly before the accident.

Rice, Brock Pemberton and Jed Harris. His last work, "Mill Town Sunday" is particularly good and critics agree that some day in the not too distant future 1t will be produced on Broadway. Tn this play, Edward Kirschbaunn, through his creative genius has put the finger on his talented pen on the pulse of the typical American small town on the Sabbath Day. Your Blakeslee Biographer believes that 1t is a tribute to his ability to note the fact that since his first year at college his one act plays in American drama. Edward were used to illustrate the lectures Kirschbaum, if he continues, is destined for great things in the American theater. His mother has reason to be proud of him and his sitter.
 Mrs. Kirschbaum finds little time for outside activities. .. Her duties at home and at her busi- ness keep her day pretty well filled, so that she has little time on her hands. However, when the opportunity presents itself, she enjoys knitting and has made many things which are not only useful, but very beautiful as well. She reads almost hhything that comes to hand and makes no choice as to any .particular types. She drives her own car and as she says, has been the family chauf- feur for years. She and her husband are planning on an auto- mobile trip in the fall.
 So friends, we come to the end of another biography of one of our neighbors. .. Mrs. Bertha kirsch- baum hostess, artist, and mother. {. A fine specimen os American womanhood. 4. She has ready smile iIn face of all chsta- cles and finds complete happiness wherever she may be.

Eight Divorces Granted Today In Local Court

Eight divorce decrees were granted by Judge Edwin c. Dickenson today in a superior court session that lasted well into the early afternoon. Hearing of two other cases was postponed for a week. All the cases in which divorce were granted were uncon- tested.
 The decrees handed down today make the largest number of di- vorces granted at any single court session during the term that be- gan last September. The large number of cases is explained by the fact that superior court adjourns for the summer next week, and will not resume sessions until Septein- Der.
 The divorces granted were as fol- lows:
 Willie Knight against Clarette Knight, on grounds Of desertion.
 Mary Matula against John Matula, on grounds of cruelty.
 Pasquale Vagalebre against Maria Vagalebre, on grounds of miscon- duct.
 Catherine Robert Brook against Edwin Brook; plaintiff granted cus- today of children and alimony of $500, payable at once.
 Raymond Houghton against Marie Dugan Houghton, on grounds of de- sertion.
 Matilda Gazelunas against Joseph Gazellnas, on grounds of desertion; plaintiff granted custody.
 Ellen Oemcke against Frederick Oemcke, on grounds of cruelty: plaintiff allowed custody ana awarded alimony of $l1 weekly.
 Rose Block against Matthew Block, on grounds of desertion; plaintiff granted custody.

 When your biographer asked Mrs. Kirschbaum if she were able to make any money on her worked she smiled and said that she's like Q good many artists whose art does not provide q very large source of income. From another source I learned, however, that her work had received excellent conl- mendation from recognized critics and that she undoubtedly would have been able to make a living with her work had she gone to the trouble of attempting to comnler- cialize 1t. However, she contents herself with creating things which she usese for gifts. She still fol- lows her art but only as 8 hobby.
 On November 28, 1906, Bertha Adamek became the bride of Louis F. Kirschbaunl. MT. Kirschbayirn was for years head millwright in the Chase Companies. Lately no has been associated with his wife in business and at the present time owns the concession at the Municipal Golf Course.
 On March 30, 1885, Mrs. Kirsch- baum opened the Hopper Kettle, a quaint little restaurant on East Main street and has been con- ducting that business successfully ever since. When she began the business, she had planned only to get 1t started for her husband, but she's found that her active part in the daily affairs of the business world has assisted her in building up her health which had been fail- ing.
 The Kirschboum's have two chile dren, Edward and Elizabeth Mary. Their daughter, the younger of the two children, is preparing to graduate from Crosby in June. Her family is planning to send her to college, and she agrees per- fectly with thir plans. Miss Kirschbaum is possessed of very lovely voice, at the present time she's studying under one of Wa terbury's most competent vocal instructors.
 Edward KirSchbaum Is Q gradu- ate of Johns Hopkins University. Last June he was awarded his A.B. degree after he had enrolled in 8 pre-med course. While he was at college, his love for the theater manifested itself and he began to major in dramatics. although he's planning to return to college fin the fall to continue his medical education. He's wTit- ten Q good many things for tho theateF which have caused 6 great deal Of favorable comment from such authoritative critics as Elmer

-FOUR FELLOW CITIZENS"
Courage, UncOnquerable Spirit Outstanding Characteristics of Mrs. Bertha Kirschbaunl- Art Student, MiIliner, Successful Business Woman;
 Has Had Variety of Experiences

Today, friends, our biography introduces one of our neighbors who began life in 8 land far away. Her early years were handicapped by an illness which made her an invalid until late in her teens. .... Despite this, she has overcome many obstacles to become one of our most interesting fellow citi- zens. Her life has been full of happiness. .. True, there has been some sorrow visited upon her but today she faces the world with a cheery smile, joyous spirit, and a will to enjoy the sunshine of happiness. May we present Mrs. Bertha Adamek Kirschbaum.
 There's a little town in Bo- hemia called Pilsen. We're familiar with that town because of the beer which bears its name but 1t means much more to our 'neighbor for today. V. It was there that Bertha first saw light of day as the daughter of Wenzel and Barbara Adamek. Her father was for years associated with the Royal Opera House in Vienna as head costuner and we shall soon see that his love for the theater and his interest in 1t has been passed on to his grandson. When Bertha was nine years old, her family came to this country and immediately made their home in Waterbury. Mir. Adamek had relatives in this city and 1t was natural that he should come to them on his arrival in Q strange land. It is interesting to note that some of his family we're among the pioneer settlers in California. It was not long after his arrival here, that her father set up a tailoring establishment, which he conducted with a good amount of success for many years. As has been previously reported, today's neighbor started life as an invalid but when she reached the age of eighteen, medical science, aided by her unconquerable spirit, was able to cure here so that she could take an active part in life.
 During her shut in years, she had always been interested in art and now that her health permit ted 1t, she travelled to New York to study in the New York Art Students League. There were times during her courses that she had to interrupt her studies bee cause of Al health. but for quite some time, whenever she was able, she returned to her art. She spe- cIalized in painting. sketching and illustrating. During her later years of study, Bertha Adannek turned her talents to the art field in the millinery world and often times

Greater Patronage
 From Lower Rates
Hundreds of Connecticut Residents Spend Week-Ends
 Sightseeing Railroads Report

Contrary to the impression in some quarters, the New Haven Rail- road is continuing to run it's regu- lar Sunday excursions at bargain rates which arc even lower than the new coach rate of two cents per mile which went into effect on June 1. Such special rates as were in effect for week ends and 30-day tickets have been discontinued but they were higher than the new rate of two cents per mile, but the Sum- day excursions which have become so popular will be continued.
 Short trips of this nature have been operated by the New Haven throughout the year ever since the passenger traffic department began building up this type of business some years ago, with special em- phasis put on Sunday excursions during the summer months when people are more anxious to spend their spare time away from their regular surroundings. The exact number of such trips for the cur rent summer has not yet been de- termined, but at least the weekly excursion idea will be continued.
 About a quarter of million peo- pie took advantage of the low fare excursion trips which the New Ha- ven conducted last year. The trains carrying them travelled approXi- mately 150,000 miles or an average of about 300 miles each per round trip.
 From the Connecticut viewpoint, it has been found by New Haven Railroad officials, that the most popular destinations for these ex- cursions are New York, Boston, Motreal and Washington. This year Connecticut residents will have available to them every Sunday during the summer low priced ex- cursions to New York, with fares for the round trip less than the regular fare. These will be planned so that baseball fans may reach the Yankee Stadium or the Polo Grounds in ample time for the start of the big league games. Excursions to more distant points, while not on a weekly basis, will be announced periodically in ample time for peo- pie to plan ahead for them. In ad- dition to the regular excursion trains. the railroad may also oper- ate several novelty trains, in which cases announcement of which will be made well in advance.
 By means of these reduced price trips, the railroad company makes us, of equipment which otherwise would be standing Idle. creates bus mess which 1t would not otherwise obtain, makes 1t possible for per- sons to travel who could not other wise afford even a short vacation, and creates extra jobs for railroad employes who man the trains.

DEMAND IS MADE FOR NEW ALLOY
Will Be Boon to Trans- :, pOrtation Industry N Is Belief

Birmingham, Ala. (UP)-A new steel alloy, the answer to de- mand for lighter types of metal for the transportation industry, is being manufactured here by the To- cal United States Steel subsidiary.
 Officials of the Tennessee Coal, Iron & Railroad company said they recently began making the ale Joy, known as "Cor-Ten," and it was the first ever made by the company here.
 The new product is light weight steel which is said to be stronger than ordinary carbon steel, and costs from 40 to 50 per cent more than carbon steel. Of- ficials said the new alloy is being produced in repsonse to demand for lighter railroad cars and buses, seeking the advantages of greater pay-load capacity and lower operat- ing costs.
 Some of the new steel will be used in the 100 phosphate cars which the local plant of the Pull man Car company will start mak- ing soon for the Seaboard Air Line.
 The new product is an alloy of chromium, copper, silicon and iron, with a high resistance to rust.
 Cnicials of the company explain tt is not practical to reduce the weight of ordinary open-hearth steel below a proper minimum.
 It is believed the manufacture of COr-Ten is the first step in pro- gram which eventually will call for the use of lightweight, high-tensile- strength steels to replace extensive ly the steels now in use. As demand Eor this product increases, the range of finished forms in which Cor-Ten ls used will be extended, officials predict. At present the alloy is available in shapes, plates, bars. strips an dsheets.
 Lighter weight cars and equip mcnt are more economical to operate and offer increased payloads mhile lighter buses and trucks re- muire less gasoline and entail less Mnintenance expense.

NEW HAVEN HAD
 DAMAGING STORM

New Haven, Conn, June 19. (UP) The severe rain and thunder storm which rolled over this section late yesterday, left in its wake consid- erable damage to highways, corn- munications facilities and private property. The rainfall of 2.6 inches was the highest ever recorded for a June IS and brought the total for the first three weeks to l3 inches, almost double all previous records.
 Hundreds of cellars were flooded, central streets were inundated for several inches and innumerable pavernentS were undermined. Lightning burned out the motors of Ave trolley cars, struck Q school steeple and several residences, but no fire resulted.
 Train service along the New Haven system was delayed because all switches had to be thrown by hand because of crippled electric signals. Shore resorts were saved from serious damage because of Q receding tide.
