YOUNG CURLEY TO
 LEAVE HARVARD

Boston, May 13-CUP)-Leo Fran cis Curley, son of former governor James M. Curley, has resigned as a f1rst-year student at Harvard Law school because of an alleged im- piled slur cast on his father dur ing a class. The incident was dis closed by the elder Curley last night at the 18th annual meeting of of- ficers of the Hibernia Savings bank, of which he was chosen president for the 18th time. T advised my son to tender his resignation from the Law school immediately and he has already done so," he told news men after the meeting.
 The purported insult was uttered at class Tuesday Curley said. A student who asked a question con- cerring mayor in another city was told by the professor he asserted that though the man was corrupt, the people kept electing him. "He went on to say that, in much the same fashion, the people would elect Curley Mayor of Boston next November" Curley said. "He did not assert that I am, or was corrupt, but there was a nasty implication in his words" Curley said the pro- lessor, whose name cannot recall, apoligized after class when young Curley protested he had been sub- jected to "an unwarranted and contemptible insult"

Ryan's Proposal On
 Liquor Bill Passed
Thomaston Man Favors Allowing Men to Stand at Bar,
 But Opposes Women Doing It

The proposal offered two weeks ago by Edward J. Ryan of Thomas ton, secretary of the National Re- tail Liquor Dealers association, won its first skirmish in the upper house of the legislature yesterday when the senate amended the bill report ed by the subcommittee to allow male patrons to stand at the bar, but to compel women to be seated. The amendment passed the senate without one dissenting vote.
 MT. Ryan,s proposal was offered after the committee had reported its liquor bill to the senate and little hope was held for the passage of the amendment.
 Upon his return from Washing ton, D. C., two weeks ago MT. Ryan issued statement in which he strongly opposed allowing women to stand at any bar but that men should be granted such a privi- lege. The standing at the bars by females was called "Speakeasy Habit" and if not corrected would cause no end of trouble.
 The amended liquor bill is in for stormy session of the legislature when it reaches the lower house next week but because of Ryan's modification of the stand up drinx- ing it stands a much better chance of being passed than originally planned.
 This marks three of Ryan's pro- posals which have won favorable support among the members of the

TALK ON STRIKE IN BRIDGEPORT

Bridgeport, Conn, May 13.-(UP) Mayor Jasper McLevy, socialist, and Deputy State Labor Commis- sioner Morgan R. Mooney were to confer today over settlement of a strike of 60 city ash and garbage collection workers. The mayor, how ever, refused to discuss the strike with representatives of the strikers, who walked out a week ago Tuesday leaving the city without collection service for six days. A new crew has been hired and, according to Public Works Director Peter Brew ster, is improving daily.
 Both he and McLevy remained firm in their statements that none of the strikers would be rehired.
 McLevy will make a radio speech tonight on his position, and strikers representatives will take to the air immediately after his speech to ex- plain their version.
 The strike was called after union worker was discharged. Picketing of the city hall and city garage con- tinued.

AXE WELDED IN
 MOONSHINE FIGHT
Host, Guest Placed Under
 Arrest Following Hec- 1 tic Battle

Nick Lipnicki, 42, of 1S Floyd strest. is telling the world today that Joe Slezis, about 60, of 16 Floyd street is about the worlds worst host. At least he told the police de- partment that shortly after noon to- day when he was booked on a charge of breach of peace, and his host, Slezis, was also boked, charged witt drunkenness and breach of the peace. Patrolman George Knowles arrested the two at Slezis home.
 1 The story is another of those "Axe me another's" and Joe Slezis is sporting a scratch on the nose as a result. It seems that Slezis had two gallons of moonshine (which was Ilater confiscated by the arresting ipfficer) and he invited Lipnicki to his house to assist him in kill ing" 1t. Instead of killing" the tmoonshine, Slezis had other aims, and started to attack Lipnicki with I an axe. The latter grabbed the axe, however, and merry tussle followed, until the intervention of the police. Judge John F. McGrath will hear the story in detail at to- morrow's session of city court.
