 At the same time MT. Sullivan prepare. to appeal directly to each of the l50 Connecticut communi- ties, which sponsor WPA projects, to likewise make an effort to pur- chase at once materials which they plan to buy as sponsors contribu- tions to the work being largely financed by the works progress ad- ministration.
 School Repairs
 Waterbury city and WPA of. ficials announced that they would cooperate in every possible par ticular with the change In buying arrangement. At present, the WPA projects in the city are confined to repairing schools and installing ShthtuCy SeWeTS,
 An extensive program In the Fairlawn district, at Robinwood, on Cooke street, and other sections, Is expected to continue through the next few months, with numerous sanitary sewers to be installed dur Ing that time, according to Thomas P. Kelly, executive secretary to Mayor Frank Hayes. Arrangements for buying materials needed for this program will eb outlined immedi- ately, 1t Is understood.

At the hehest of national Administra. tor Harry L, Hopkins, the state or. garization is now laying It's plans and summarizing It's needs for ma terials for not only the remainder of December, but January, Febru. ary and March as well.
 Materials Needed
 If oil sponsors in the state fall In line with this effort to lend mo. mentum to the buying campaign, t will mean that close to $07b,000 will be placed in circulation shortly by the purchase of materials as a re- suit of the operation of WPA in thiS state.

Hollywood.-Out of the past: It was just quarter of a century ago that censorship first was leveled at @ motion picture. The film was "The Thaw Trial" featuring Evelyn Thaw in what was, of course, her flicker debut.

 Not long previous premiere of "Mademoiselle Champagne" had been interrupted by the shots which Thaw poured into Stanford White. Author of that play was Edgar AL Ian Woolf, now a Hollywood writer.
