Brass City Visitors
 Sense Cuban Revolt
Developments, RunlOrs Enliven Cruise. of Water
 burians; Visit Great Locks at Panama Canal

Down in the Spanish Main, where tropical caverns yield treasure trove sometimes to those who have sought pieces of eight" over the centuries since Captain Kidd and Morgan buried their bloody hoards there, two Waterbury men found romance but recently. Theirs was not a treasure hunt, however, nor yet search for the romance which burgeons with the soft and scented trade winds of a tropical night.
 Sought Relaxation
 Rather, Nicholas Martone, owner of Martone's Grill on East Main street, and his companion, Stony" Borrelli, employe of the American Brass Company, were prepared to find only the usual relaxation of g vacation trip aboard cruise ship.
 Impressed, they were, with such ports as Bridgetown, Barbadoes; Port of Spain, Trinidad; La Guaira, chief port of Venezuela. But the trips inland into strange mountain retreats of the natives who do not habituate the Seaports, proved the more interesting, the more exotic. Or so relate the travellers, just now returned from their jaunt of several thousand miles by sea.
 The two Waterburians made special trip over the isthmus at Panama, examined in detail the great canal and its many locks, Gatun Lake, that marvel of engi- neering accomplishment which was attempted long years ago by other nations but remained a dream until the United States wrote 8 fait ocoompli to this mammoth utility of progress.

war. Because it would hurt ship ping"
 Then you admit your President is dunderhead and that unbal- anced Thomas Jefferson who ad- vises him is a fool?"
 "Oh, no sir!" answered Polly, rejecting the only cue that might have saved the situation. T can't feel that way. Nor does my brother Dick, I reckon. The Eng fish navy's the cruelest thing on earth, and the most overbearing. You treat your seamen so vilely that you can't get enough to serve you. So your ships stop ours at sea - even our private merchant men, mind you! and search for English deserters. When they don't find them, they steal our lads. Then there's the way you've sent the Indians down against our western frontiers out of Canada, burning towns and scalping women and children. That's a pretty tale too, Mir. Dart!"
 Polly paused, startled at her own boldness, yet not recanting. "The only thing I'm ashamed of, MT, Dart, is that came out on ship that ran the blockade"
 Oliver Dart said proddingly. "So it's true, as we've heard, that you Americans don't stick together, eh? Your country's divided?"
 Don't feel too encouraged over that" said Polly maliciously. We have our private quarrels, but let England try to pry us apart-!" England will not have to pry you apart" Oliver Dart said with cold precision. "She will take you in lump and annex you. You will be our colonies again, as the King wills Do you know the size of the English navy, my girl?"
 No sir" answered Polly, shiver- ing.
 Eight hundred men of war. - How many ships has the American navy?"
 T don't know, sir"
 Nor had the angry man who had questioned her. Had they realized, those two, that America had but seven frigates and 15 sloops to meet those 800-men- war, the old man might have had a stroke brought on by mirth and the girl might have been broken by despair.
 You don't know" said Oliver Dart thoughtfully, and he closed his eyes and put his finger tips together. T wonder! It occurs to me that you're very knowing about some things and very blank
The Waterbury Democrat., 1938-03-11

about others. It occurs to me that you might have come to England on some mission for your tricky government.-Yes! And using your relationship to me as a ruse."
 q don't understand, MT. Dart. Polly's voice showed fright.
 Well, my girl, there are gov ernment prisons for such as you! More than one French woman has seen the inside of cell in Eng land. There should be some small stone boudoirs available for pry- ing American women, too"
 Polly's hand went to her throat, and her eyes widened. So the old man was mad! Not in entirety; only on one subject. She had been foolish and reckless to argue with him. She must leave
 While Oliver Darts eyes were shut and his finger tips were touch ing each other delicately she backed quietly toward the door and slipped out of the room, more frightened than she had ever been in all her Is years.
 She was still in her coat and bonnet. She ran down the stairs and was about to open the street door when she saw the little ter rier she had bought and completely forgotten. He was in a corner of the hall where Mrs. Broggs had abandoned him, and when he saw Polly he came eagerly toward her on his ugly little legs, look of de- light and welcome on his face. Polly stopped and picked him up.
 You're a nuisance" she said softly. T gave you the right name. I'll never be rid of you"
 She went out into the street, de- termined to find tavern that bore a sign with unicorn and crown on it. She thought desperately, yet with surge of happiness, T must find Jerry Whitfield!"

their tongues in the Spanish ports before; then Havana, chief city of the Pearl of the Antilles" Cuba glamorous, effulgent, sophisticated claimed their interest.
 It was in Cuba that the rulnblings of the incipient revolt against that strong man, Colonel Battista, were apparent to the travellers. Long time now, for the icland republic of many revolts, the colonel who was a cor poral, has ruled his fiery com- patriots.
 But the tale of the Waterbury men finds another revolt in the making. At least, their information derived from reliable sources, is that Cuba once again has become a hotbed of radicalism and the students, once the allies of Battista, are ready to follow any worthy leader in another bloody uprising.
 Romance
 So, with mere vacation in mind Messrs, Marton and Borrelli of Wa terbury, return to native heaths with tales of romance, revolt in hot countries, experiences which find no parallel in their lives before. And from such is romance, the philoso- pherS tell us.

POLICE BECOME 1
 GANG BUSTERS
Youngsters Accused of In= sulting AutOists Near
 Green Face Arrest

Boys who have been annoying motorists and pedestrians in the vicinity of the. green must be driven away from there, declared Judge John F. McGrath in city court After hearing the case of 16- year-old colored boy arrested yester- day by Patrolman Richard Bald win, the judge told the policeman to tell other officers to bring in any other young men guilty of an- noyances. He gave the colored youth a suspended sentence, but warned that the next youth to come before him in similar case would be fined or jailed.
 Patrolman Baldwin testified that a group of boys have been making the green a hangout, and have been daily causing trouble. They have been using vile language to passersby, he said, have ridden bicy- cles all around the green despite warnings, and have insulted motor ists when they refused them their requests to shine their cars.
 Police plan to round up all the members of the group unless they stay away from the green.

FORMER STARS
 LOSE TO PALS
Rinaldi Leads Way in 43 to 34 GO; CarrierOs Win
 Family Feud"
By Jim JanncttY

Rich Riccuti's North End Pals added another victory to their list last night at the "" hut before a capacity crowd of $50 fans, when they trimmed the "Y' Forgotten Stars, ABA. The Stars tired easily as the younger squad shot at will. The Pals, paced by their stellar guard Joe Renaldi, who shot from all angles of the court and made most of his shots good, forged ahead of the Stars at the start and kept ahead of the older players all the way. Renaldi lead the way in the first quarter to give the blue and grey a 10-8 lead at the close. In the second canto, Carriero aided Renaldi in the hoop bombardment while Romeo kept the Stars in the game as the period ended 18-14 in the Pals favor.
 After the intermission both squads went on a scoring spree. Joe Rossi and "SlattS" Martino did their best to put the Stars ahead but Joe Renaldi, Latanzio and Ben son combined their efforts to put the Riccuitimen in the lead 34-25, going into the last session. "Slatts" Martino added a bit of color to the affair by nodding to the crowd and calling his shots. Fred Jacovino also strutted his usual comical tactics to the fans approval. Capt. Pete Pol letti was the Pals colorist. In the last canto the Pals scored nine points to the Stars nine to take the contest 43-34. The score:
