 At Meeting Of General Board
Recent Drive Brings l,626
 Recruits; EstOnia Sec retary Coming Here

Herbert Tonissio, national General secretary of the Y. M. o. A. for Estonia, is to be the guest of the Waterbury Y. M. c. A. for the four days, Nov. 8 to II. This was an- nounced at the meeting of the Y. M. 0. A. Board last night.
 Mir. Tonissoo, who is considered to be one of the albest Y. M. c. A. secretaries in Europe, is making study of the Y. M. c. A. movement in America, and the National Y. M. c. A. has selected Waterbury as one of the. Y. M. c. A. systems which they wish him to study.
 Rated Highly
 He spent four years in America, fourteen years ago when he came here as student at the Y. M. c. A. College at Springfield, Mass. He is rated as an administrator of de- cided gifts" @eG "a.
 At the board meeting the mem bership report showed 5,264 mern- bers of the Waterbury Y. M. 0. A. This figure includes the members at the three branches, Central, Brooklyn and North End, and also the affiliated community members.
 A total of 1926 renewals and new members were secured in the recent annual enrolment week. General Chas. A Templeton's Red Army won over General Terence F. Carmody's Blue Army by the close score of

 l6 points. The Red Army had 7,433 points and the Blue Army 7,417 points. General Carmody's Army, however, led in the number of merl- bers, having secured IS members more. The Red Army had BOA mem- berS and the Blue Army 822. The Reds therefore won by 16 points, while the Blues led by the close score of IS members.
 Departments Busy
 The report showed that the war; ious departments of the Y. M. o. A. were busily engaged in welcoming the new members. Every day addi- tional new members are aff1liating themselves with the Y. M. c. A. Reports showed a busy program in all departments.
 The financial report showed $l2,- 465. Expended for the month of September. The cost of operating the three Y. M. c. As and the camp for tho months of the fiscal year is $66.4O7. ~Ln That Ll4e -.>- A. is in @ healthy financial conolCion, is shown by the fact that there has been a gain of $2,102, over the budget for the first five months. The Y. M. o. A. had a deficit of about $l6,000 during the first two years of the depression. Half of this amount has since been paid of, and 1t is the plan that good reduction should be made this year, which ends May l, 1888.
 Committees Report
 Special committees which report ed last night were executive com mittee. Levi Wilcox's report; and a committee on social security, for Y M. O. A. employees, consisting oi Attorney Theobald E. Conway and Edward T. Carmody. John B. GoSS reported on Y. M. Q. A. insurance.

two hour run of the Pageant of Folly" company yesterday. In ad- dition to the female star of the show, there is the comic combi1a- ton of Harry (Hickey) Levan and Billy Foster who provide enough laughter throughout the show to make attendance well worth while.
 A novel listing on the program refers to the chorus as the Bryan ettes", a tribute, 1t is to be sup- posed to the beautiful blonde from the Ziegfeld Follies whose stage presence, general appearance and ability was well received. Laughter is easily generated through the ef- forts of Levan and Foster who work exceptionally well together while the White Magic" ballet featuring Marion Mason, Burns and the chorus girls is another of the several especially entertaining features of the show. f.
 Levan, Bolles and Curtis combine to put on comedy sketch billed Tn the Barber Shop" which is a cure for rheumatism if series of old fashioned belly-laughs will do the trick, while the entire performance is costumed well and presented in a manner that will and does meet with immediate approval.

Hogan Likely Successor to John P. Shea-Annual Holy Name Card Tournament Opens in Parish Hall
WASHINGTON HILL

JOIlU F. SL1ed VIII EeSlBu OLA NOVcLA' Der 15 as president of the Washing ton Hill Companionship club, it was learned today, and devote his time entirely to the organization of the Washington Hill Independent Demo- cratic club.
