WHAT PRICE GLORY,

Wilfred Hetzel Barred from u. of
M. Tourney Because He's
TOO GoOd"-Says He

Charging that officials made a
rule to fit his case,' Wilfred Het-
eel, Darby Hicks, Jr, and free
throw expert hailing from Main
Street, was burned up" this week
over the method they employed in
barring him from the u. of NJ.
free throw tourney in which he
topped the winner by nearly 20
points-but was disqualified be-
cause he was too good"
Charged with professionalism in
a press release from the University
campus, Hetzel refuted that charge
upon his return to this city this
week for spring vacation. He said
he learned later that the competi-
tors had agreed it was unfair to
have to compete with the worlds
champion free thrower, so he was
barred. Hetzel wasn't informed Of
his dismissal from the ranks OF
competition until the night Of the
tourney. So, as the Darb says, he
was barred because he's too good. ,
Qualifying in the tournament
with AZ out of so tries, Wilfred
went into the championship round
the favorite, vowing he would top
the record, IS for last year, by 5
baskets. He hoped SO out Of 100,
and that's official, and the winner
OF the trophy made only 70.

mote safety, and therefore all par
ents should encourage their chill
dren to become members of the
club.
It was explained that the men,
bers of the club will have their
own court, and there will be penal
ties for violations. The club will
also provide honors for those who
go through the year without viola
tions. 1t was decided to hold the
next meeting at the club rooms
next Monday evening, March 10Th,
at 7:30 p. m, at which time offic-
ers will be elected and organiza-
ton will be completed.
George Fish, chief of the local
fire department, warned the boys
and girls of the dangers existing
while riding their bicycles to fires.
He stated that even though the
fire apparatus had passed by, it was
still dangerous as many of the fire
men drive their own cars to fires,
and the boys and girls are liable
to get in their way and be injured.
S. G.. Schwarzbauer, chairman
of the Sank Centre Safety Council,
commended the V. F. w. for the
organization of the bicycle club as
a matter of safety for the boys and
girls of Sank Centre. He admon-
ished the boys and girls to use
every precaution for the elimina-
ton of accidents, and urged them
to Join the club.

LEGISLATIVE
ENACTMENTS

A proposal to increase taxes on
whiskey to raise the revenue from
that source by $5,OO0,000 was made
in the Senate Tuesday.
Action on regulations to tighten
beer sales generally were postpon-
ed in the state senate on Tuesday.
The bill, before the senate, propos-
es to put 80 beer on the same hour
ly sale basis as hard liquor.
Recalled from the governors of
flee Tuesday by the legislature
was a bill passed by both house
and senate which would make beer
establishment proprietors liable to
prosecution should a person drink
hard liquor in his place. Principal
provision of the bill was explained
as making it a gross misdemeanor
to sell hard liquor in beer taverns.
An amendment, that prompted the
recall, made by the senate would
make the proprietors responsible
for any violation of the hard liquor
drinking law.
Passing the house was a bill re-
lating to social institutions. One OF
the provisions related to the pay
ment Of SO, at the discretion of the
State Board of control, upon dis
charge Of inmates from the Red
Wing state training school Tor boys
and from the Sank Centre home
school for girls.

lacking was a song, THE Wearin'

There's worry aplenty in Farmer
Labor circles over the rift in the
party in Minneapolis, where on
Sunday two Farmer-Labor candi-
dates for Mayor were endorsed.
One faction, the Benson faction,
endorsed Kenneth Haycraft. The
other faction, presumably the
Hjalmer Petersen faction, endorsed
the present mayor, Mr.. Latimer.
The latter faction hold that the
Haycraft supporters are too friend
ly to Communists and that they
seek to destroy the party through
their radicalism. In any event 1t is
bad situation for any party to
find itself in and gives the other
candidate, former Mayor George
Leach, fine opportunity for cop
ping the prize.

rules, the work of the committee
will hinge on the framing of a new
code of bylaws and the collection
of regulations. Adopted on Feb
ruary IA, 1879, the bylaws have
undergone no repairs or altera-
tons since then. Applying new
business-like principals to the ad-
ministration of this public institu-
ton, the Boards decision was
prompted by cumbersome methods
now necessary to locate regulations
scattered through the minutes of
over a sixty year period.
This move is another step in an
institution that has known re-
markable growth. Was time, back
in November, 1888. when several
men and dry goods box moved
the library from the school house
to small brick building on Third
Street. Today, applying new prin-
ciples to facilitate the governing of
the institution, the Board boasts
administration to a Library hous-
ing $1,000 volumes.

LOAD RESTRICTIONS
ARE PASSED BY STATE
IN SPRING RREAKVTT

Load restrictions placed on state
trunk highways during the spring
breakup will be eased this year,
with a four-ton minimum and q
maximum that may go as high as
10 tons, according to a ruling by
N. w. Elsberg, state highway COM
missioner, and announced by w. F.
Rosenwald, chief maintenance en-.
gineer. Restrictions, wherever i'm
posed, will be enforced without ex-
ceptions, however.
Because many secondary roads
have been snowbound practically
all winter and foodstuffs, in many
cases, are needed, state officials
will increase the old three-ton
minimum by full ton on an aver
age. But, because it is the desire Of
state officials to protect the state s
heavy investment in it's roads and
because of a desire to shorten the
time over which restrictions are
necessary, all motorists will be
asked to cooperate with the High
way department and keep heavy
loads off soft highways.
Restrictions are put into erect
under authority of law to prevent
excessive damage. Traffic, when
frost is coming out of the ground
and the road foundation is in a
weakened condition, easily. breaks
down the road surface. This condi-
ton continues until the frost is
entirely out Of the ground.
1t will be necessary to change
restrictions often as climatic con-
ditions change, Mr.. Rosenwald
said. Where restrictions are in
force, signs will be placed on the
trunk route on both sides of the
intersecting road, on the right
hand side of the trunk highway,
and at intermediate points where
the restricted section is intersected
by other roads.

SO DRUNKEN DRIVERS

by state highway patrolmen in
February, according to a report by

lief. Or will they? Rumors that
seem to be well founded that adj
journment will no sooner be made
on April 22nd, or thereabout, than
Gov. Benson will cali special
session. There Is only one little "if'
say these who are presumed to be
close to his excellency and that is
that the legislature In regular ses-
sion pass a Tax Bin and a few
other pet bills he Is known to de-
sire.
IF this be true, 1t Is the writer's
guess that there will be a special
session and, If its adjournment de-
ponds upon passage of the things
demanded by the Governor, then
the special session may last until
snow flies. The Governor, the ru-
mors have 1t, will not compromise.
Such rumors have 1t that he said
IF the reactionary Senate does not
pass the kind of a Tax bin I want
I'll call them back into session II
1t takes them until Christmas"
That isn't exactly the way he said
1t, say the rumorers. There were
some pretty strong adjectives.
But that is a bridge yet to be
crossed.
Those who have saved a nickel
or two will have to dig down a bit
deeper into their jeans, If a bill
passed by the House meets with a
like fate in the Senate. The bill
passed by the House would in
crease the tax on bank deposits
and private savings. The proposal
supported by Gov. Benson, raises
the taxes on money and credits
from 8 mills to mills. It Is, in
fact, a poor mans tax, for IL strikes
at savings and imposes a heavy
tax on mortgages. Those in the
House who opposed it tried hard
to drive home the fact that such a
law would strike at the wage-earn-
er and low-salaried class much
heavier than on the wealthy, who
can and do place their savings in
tax exempt securities, but the far
mer-labor controlled House would
have none of 1t and passed out the
bill by vote of SO to 81.
The much cussed and discussed
Lobby bill was the cause of more
oratory in the Senate than has
been heard on any single day of
this session on Tuesday. The bill
came up for hearing in committee
of the whole and Sen. Charles
Hausler, Of Ramsey, and himself
liberal, moved that the bill be in
definitely postponed. Said he: 'Tt
is the most vicious, contemptuous,
silly, ridiculous bit of sham legis-
lation that have ever seen. It is
an insult to the intelligence of
every member of this body and
should be speedily killed" That
started the barrage which contin-
ued for fully two hours. Senators
Peterson, Lommen and Kozlack
pressed for its passage and Sena-
tors Carley, Farand and others
flayed it numerically. Sen. Far
nand brought down the house when
he injected his keen Irish wit into
the argument. Support of the
measure was purely for a record
vote, thing impossible in COM

CITY RECRUITS 27
 FOR CCC BRIGADE
More Liberal Qualifica= tiOns May Be Needed for
 Future Quotas

Out of 54 eligible applicants for the eco during the last enrolment period, Waterbury had 27 boys and men accepted, 1t was announced to- day at the department of welfare office, this statement being made in connection with an announcement from B. H. Van Buren state select ing agent, that the state had en- rolled about fifty per cent of its quota.
 The figures released by the state selecting agent show that there were 519 persons enrolled during the last period, which lasted from Jan- uary 4 to February 20, out of a quota set at 1,036.
 Hartford had the best enrolment in the entire state, it was an- nounced by the agent, exceeding its quota of 50 by B applicants. Wa terbury was slightly under its quota, but this was, in some ways, the re- suit of its excellent showing during the last period. At that time the To- cal quota was raised and during the last period, local welfare de- partment members realized that "eligibles" were hard to be found in the city.
 It is believed that some changes will be made in the near future to liberalize restrictions in effect at the present time as a result of the drop in state enrolment during the last period.

DIVORCE, ALIM0NY
 FOR MRS. FRODEL
Former Beauty Shop Own- CT Wins Action Against
 Marine-Husband

Mrs. Helen Tapley Frodel. for merly resident of Brooklyn, New York was granted a divorce from John Frodel after evidence that he was intolerably cruel to her had been offered before Judge Frank P. McEvoy in superior court yester- day. Mrs. Frodel is former beau- ty shop owner and her husband is an engineer on a Socony oil tanker which plies between New York and Texas.
 The petitioner claimed her hus- band never sent money direct to her for her maintenance and sup port, while he was away at his oc- cupation, but rather sent it to his sister who was supposed to pay the bills contracted by her. It was claimed that the sister was very tardy i'll paying the few bills and Mrs. Frodel was forced to do with out necessities at various times due to this arrangement. Witnesses testified that MT. Frodel is a 6 foot CT of weight of about 250 pounds and that he often struck his wife who weighs about 100. On several instances she was forced to seek hospital treatment for complete nervous breakdowns.
 On the day Mrs. Frodel started proceedings for her divorce, four months ago, her husband came home while she was absent, broke down the rear door and carted away every piece of furniture with the exception of her bed, the peti- tioner claimed. In lieu of alimony, Judge McEvoy approved stipula- ton in which Mrs. Frodel is given $1 ,000 cash and an $500 insurance policy. Attorney Ralph c. Coppeto appeared for Mrs. Frodel and Att torney Guerin Carinody represent ed the defendant.
 Dorothy Dahl Coleman entered suit today in which she seeks a de- cree from Vincent Coleman. Charg- ing desertion since April, 1882 she also asks for aliInony and custody of an 8 year old daughter. Thc Colemans were married November IA, 1927 at Naugatuck.
