The car was recovered on 1rion street when Dr. B. A. O'Hara noticed the trio trying to syphon gas from aa- other car. He notified police, but the trio got away. The car was owned by an East Hampton man.
 In addition to the theft charges, the federal government may place charges against the gRng for the theft of blankets from the eco Camps, Robinson and White.
 The last theft believed completed by the gang was that at the Palisa- do garage in windsor, October {, which resulted in the arrest Of the two boys by Motor Patrolman Dwy. CT last Saturday.
 State Police Lieutenant Paul Laviri of the Hartford Barracks stated to- day that he and his men are con- tinuing their hunt for articles stolen by the gang. An effort was being made to connect. the boys with the stripped car found here Sunday in the Bucks Hill section, but Lieuten- ant Lavin said that as yet he could not say anything definite in regard to that. None of the boys has ad- mitted any knowledge of the car, which was stolen from Lawrence, N. F., on october 2.

Ready FOr MandamVis

Ready For MamuamuS
 Republican and Independent Democratic. leaders are prepared, should MT. McMahon refuse Q re- canvass of the machines, to take the matter to the Superior Court, seek- ing @ writ of mandamus to compel the re-check. MT. Culhane yester- day told MT. O'Connor that he wanted immediate action and was prepared to go into court at once If the corporation counsel advised MT McMahon against allowing the re- canvass. I.,
 MT. O'Connor has instructed ofl- cials of the bank to allow no one to see the election records without 8 court order. The Town Clerk, he claims, has no right to the election records.
 T warned her election night" he said, "that no one was to see the records after they were locked up. consider that the City Clerk, John Fitzmaurice, is the custodian of the election records, because of the act which consolidated the town and city governments. MT. Fitzmaurice does not want to get at the records, though he is legally the custodian" |"
 No action was possible in the courts today because of the holiday. It is probable now that the Fusion ists will wait until MT. O'Connor has given his ruling on the re-ca1vas before taking any legal steps. Election Still Muddled Today, @ week after the balloting, the most phzzling election in the city's history was still @ muddle. Ofticial figures have been issued by Chief Moderator McN6ahon, but they are disputed by the Fusionists. The figures show that Mayor Hayes was reelected by 65 votes, that City Controller Daniel J. Leary lost to Sherwood Rowland by 33 votes, that other principal offlceS went to the Democrats and that control of the Board of Aldermen went to the Fusionists.

hane, taking him as head of the two tickets for an example of the point at hand, cannot claim the 10,O0l official" votes which repre- sent 14,000 Republican votes, 4,600 plus Independent Democratic, against the 19,l26 official" votes of Mayor Hayes.
 Why? Because he is in the pe- culiar position of having been nominated by two separate par ties". He was not the candidate of one, endorsed by the other, as was the case of Judge Dennis J. Slavin of the probate court, nominated by the Democrats and endorsed by the Republicans. In that instance, the Republicans did not nominate can- didate to run against Jucge Slavin.
 Discussion has been general about the peculiar set-up of the candidates on the "joint" tickets. Nothing quite like this in local annals has arisen to annoy the voters with general embodiment in a political aftermath of an election.
 Co. today, added to the embroglio of impoundned voting machines, locked up tally sheets and modera- tors reports, Waterbury's week-old election remains Q thing of grow iilg complexity. Although the law rules against election bets, accord- ing to an old statute which also makes illegal the holding of bets, pDnty of this currency remains ''impounded" until some later time when bettors accept final de- clsior.
 will that decision result from the Threatened writ of mandamus ot which Mir. Culhane talks, or will it arrive through general acceptance Of the moderator's official figures? Not Even Corporation Counsel Charles s. O'Connor knows the an- swer, according to his latest word today.

Editorial

As the high school students have
been asked to support the sale of
Christmas Seals, some explanation
of the value and purpose OF this
sale is forthcoming.
Last year the funds from the
seal sale financed tuberculin tests
for 1914 high school students in
Montana. These tests determine.
through a positive or negative re-
action, whether the students have,
or might be susceptible to tuber-
culosis. The value of this work is
self-apparent.
tuberculosis is responsible for
more deaths in the United States
annually than any other cause. Al.
though the value of dimes or a
quarters purchase of Christmas
Seals toward remedying this some
what startling condition is dubious,
the money raised in this way has
undoubtedly helped the situation in
Montana in many ways.
Aside from the indirect benefits
Libby may receive from the fund
provided by the sale of Christmas
Seals, the award of fifty dollars of
fered to the town in each section of
the state having the largest seal
sales would be a welcome addition
to the fund being raised for the
new swimming pool.

Opinions

This subject is being discussed
by many students and the towns
folks as we'll. This will give you
an opinion of how some of the
students feel about this years bas-
ketbal1 team.
Question-Do you think Libby
will have good basketball team
this year?
Mary Janet Piva1-Of course,
think we will have good basket
ball team. Why shouldn't we? It's
a cinch because we have plenty of
what it takes to make a good bas-
ketball player, and plenty of pep
to back them What could stop us?
Bob Switzer-Yes. I think Libby
has chance to go places this year.
Isabelle Shipmen-Yes, the boys
showed lots of spirit last year, and
I'm sure that this year Libby Hi
will have strong winning team.
Jack Dorrington-Sure. With a
good coach like Erickson, we are
bound to have a good team.
Helen Martini think our chances
are very good Last year our team
looked swell and we have many
good fella's coming up to fill in.

send portions unto them for whom
nothing is prepared for this day is
holy unto our Lord: neither be we

Who's Who

Probably the broadest shoulders
in the senior class beong to our
particular. subject this week. His
broad shoulders are not the only
eye-catching asset of this tall, dark
and handsome boy.
The two most interesting things
in High School to him are, or rather
were, his football career and GER
tain dark haired senior girl--who is
still the light Of his blue eyes.
He can always be found in the
last seat of one of the rows in the
back of the assembly---and has al
ways been there since he started
high school. He claims there is
nothing like seat in the back
of the assembly and a good stiff
football practice. Three guesses.
Last week did you recognize Mary
Anne Racicot and June Miller?
