Bottle Of Gin, Hatchet, Cops-- $1O And Costs!

When two men are chopping wood and one strikes the other on the head with a hatchet 1t cannot be classified as an honest mis- take," ruled Judge John F. Me- Grath this morning in city court when George Evans, colored, 43, of 43 Chatfield avenue was ar- raigned for breach of the peace. George, it seems, had invited 9 friend, also colored, to render aS- sistance in the task which he was performing in anticipation of a severe cold spell next winter and since both men were friends no financial negotiations were dis cussed. George, however was sat- isfied host and purchased bottle of gin.
 Both men had chopped and drank for some time until finally the guest began to tire and an ar- gument was the result. The friend cast sad glance at the empty gin bottle and thought that it would be a better idea to call it day and was walking from the scene when attacked by his host. Ser geant Charles McWeeney then en- tered the picture and Evans was arrested. Financial arrangements were agreed upon this morning however and the accused was fined $1O and costs.

Waterbury's thirteen playgrounds opened officially for the summer season today and, coincidentally, James Curtin, superintendent of the park department, announced the names of 54 supervisors chosen to direct the varied activities of the 1887 program. These officials will be augmented by 26 WPA workers, appointed by Miss Edna Harmon of the Emergency Educational depart ment of the WPA.
 Assembled at Hamilton park, the newly chosen directors of recreation for thousands of Waterbury chil- dren were informed of their specific duties this morning. A while later at city hall, Superintendent Curtin commented on the general program for the summer and expressed con- cern over one aspect of playground activity which lies outside the scope of his department, vandalism.
 Vandalism
 What the city of Waterbury is trying to do for the thousands of children whose recreation is care- fully planned at our playgrounds is menaced by consistent and increased vandalism on park properties" he said. 'This year, as in the past, we are confronted with heavy expense to replace equipment stolen or broken by the elder brothers of the children whose health and play are the chief. concerns of our play ground programs"
 The superintendent received a re- port this morning that the supports of the see-saw at the Fuller street playground had been stolen during one of the last two or three nights. Earlier this year young vandals smashed numbers of expensive lighting equipment at Hayden Homestead park and another gang" removed benches from Library park soon after they were placed there. carted them down to Meadow street
 Police Aiding
 Superintendent of Police Roach offered full cooperation today with the park department in the matter of special precaution to prevent re- current vandalism. All motor patrols have been ordered to make special tours of park and school properties, he said, and police in plain clothes have been assigned to special duty nuring the hours after park police

NEW YORK, April 10.-Some

little ground in today's stock market

decisive one.
Both buyers and sellers held off

Effect of the widespread report,
denied again yesterday, of a possible
change in the Treasury's gold price,
seemed to have worn off, but traders
found little other news to encourage
further commitments.
The uneven performance of the bond
market acted as an additional check.
The Associated Press average of 60
stocks declined 0,2 of point at $50.
Comparatively better performance
of the carrier shares was ascribed to
the fact that while last weeks car
loadings showed a contraseasonal dip,
prospects appeared bright for con-
tinued rise in shipments over the next
few weeks.
Steels and oils were active on the
upside at the opening, but early gains
were shaded or erased as trading pro-
gressed. Coppers tended to sag and
utilities were likewise laggard. Buying
