BROTHERS DENIED
 BOND REDUCTION
Ordered Held For Trial in Connection With Stab-
 ping Affray

The cases of George Beckett, 32, and Stanley Beckett, 29, of New York city and Waterbury, were con- tinued a week in city court today after Judge Edward Mascolo had turned down a plea for reduction of ball. The two are charged with assault and breach of the peace, having been arrested after 8 stab- ping affray on West Main street Sunday night.
 The continuance was granted be- cause of the fact that Joseph Knockett, alias Blue Steel" local colored man who was badly slashed in the fight, is still under medical care at Waterbury Hospital, and will not be released until next week. Knockett himself is under arrest on assault and breach of peace charges.
 Attorney Joseph Guilfoile sought to have bonds for the pair released from $500 to $500, but the court refused his request.
 A continuance of two months was given Mrs. Anna Raggozzini, 30, of III Draher avenue, charged with obtaining money by false pretenses. The arrest followed check trans- action, and the continuance was given today to allow the woman to make restitution.
 A weeks continuance was given Philip Schiavo. 5l, of 56 Ayers street, charged with assault and breach of the peace.

IMPROVED HOUSING PROGRAM PLANNED
Government Funds to As- sure Warm Living Quar-
 ters For Farmers

New Haven, Aug. 26-Farm fami- lies who have been aided by the resettlement administration in mov- ing from barren or unprofitable acres to farms which may be oper- ated successfully, are going to be warm and comfortable this winter, insofar as good housing conditions are concerned, according to Dorothy M. Beck, regional director of the resettlement administration for the eleven northern states.
 "$336,391 has just been made available for construction and re- pairs on the farms located on the four settlement projects in Region l." Mrs. Beck said. This sum should be sufficient, she believes, to com- plete work on the 185 construction jobs that remain to be done on the four projects scattered through the states of Maine, New York and Pennsylvania.
 Hundreds of families, moving from poor farmlands in these three states are relocating on farms purchased by the resettlement administration A number moved before spring plow- ing, and the remainder will move this autumn as soon as their crops have been harvested to profitable farming, have, to 8 large extent been purchased by the RIA and re- tired from agriculture. The admin istration is putting this land to ap- propriate conservational uses, such as reforestation, recreational parks and wild life refuges.
 All farms which the RIA is selling to the resettlers on long term agree. ments are reconditioned before be. ing turned over to the new occu- pants. Buildings are repaired, new roofs added where necessary, minor arm. buildings are constructed, win- dows are all in place, homes and outbuildings protected with fresh coats of paint. Besides making the homes neat and comfortable, all buildings, houses, dairy barns and other outbuildings, must meet the rigid sanitary requirements of state and federal authorities. All such re. pair work is being rushed to com- pletion before winter sets in.
 Up to now, according to Mrs. Beck 1t was necessary to employ WPA labor exclusively on construction work. A new procedure has now

 Kay made a helpless gesture. How do you always manage to make 1t on the day they defrost the box?"
 "It's Q gift" Priscilla said, get- ting up. Come on, let's go." She stopped suddenly, went back to the table. "Oh, Kay here's a legal looking letter for you. Melita and I have been expiring with curios- ity."
 Kay took the long envelope, looked at the unfamiliar name in the upper left-hand corner. "It's from Aurora" she said. i've an uncle there I've never seen." She unfolded the letter and read hur- riedly.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-08-26

"What is itp" asked Priscilla irn- patiently, dropping down beside Kay.
 Kay didn't answer at once, She was rereading the letter. Finally she looked at Melita and Priscilla with a comically perplexed express sion. "This-this says that Uncle Ben died a month ago. He-he left me @ yacht"
 "A yacht?" exploded Melita and Priscilla together.
 That's what this says. And it's here. remembered that several years ago Uncle Ben made a cruise from here, but I didn't know that"
 "Welll" Priscilla cut in cheer- fully, T guess I'm psychic. Didn't I say 1t would be boat tr!p?"
 Kay shot her a scornful look. "With what would we run 6 yacht?"
The Waterbury Democrat., 1937-08-26

Priscilla looked puzzled. T'm not sure. I think they run with gaso- line, like an automobile, don't they?"
 What" Melita wanted to know, "do you suppose 1t would cost us to use the boat?"
 q haven't the slightest idea. But I remember reading that MT. Mor- gan said anybody who had to ask that question shouldn't own one. :" Ruefully Kay looked at the letter again. Dear old Uncle Ben! It was nice of him to think of me but what I really needed was two yachts"
 Anyhow" cried Priscilla, jump- ing up, "let's have a look at the thing. Maybe we could find 8 nice sailor who'd run 1t for us-just for the trip"

Were Out to Win.

1T WAS one Of the most determined
teams that ever walked upon foot
ball field. You could sense that in the
grim, set cast Of each mans Jaw and
the perfect physical condition each
Panther showed before the game be.
gan. They were out to win this time
and washington, or no one else, was
going to block the road.
1t was easy to see, after the first
few minutes of play. that Pitt had the
faster, harder charging, more aggres-
sive line and that Pitt could take that
ball and lug it along the Western ter
rain. Washington, using a drifting
line that waited for the play, was
bowled over or cut apart by forwards
and backs that struck with sudden.
shattering force.
It was Marshall GoIdberx,
the Panther sophomore kid, who
set OF the fireworks ON . 20
yard gallop and Il was Bobby
Larue who followed this with
another 20-yard hike to WASH
ingt0n's 10-yarA line.
These two runs were featured by
the brand Of blocking that clears away
all debris; it was the type Of blocking
that even cut down the Tall Trees Of
the Northwest.
In the third period, Washington
called on a seven-man line-most of
them able-bodied giants-to plug up
the gaps. But. even this was not
enough to roll back that Pittsburgh
surge that struck like the surf In Q
storm. 1t was overwhelming in raw
power and the perfection OF its speed
and timing. It seemed impossible
that ona man. even Z Patrick, could
