SIGHTSEEING! College Student Visits Court House Just
 to Watch Grand
 Jury in Action.

Newspapermen assigned to cover the grand jury wondered today if they had written enough about the secrecy of the probe and the fact that no one other than the jury and officials are allowed to "listen in."
 A young college student, Richard Oliver of New York, sought entry to the jury building today, saying, T only want to sit in and watch the proceedings" He said he was a grad uate student at Columbia University and that he at one time lived in Waterbury.
 Upon entering the building he wsnt to the elevator where William 'Fibber' Magee was on duty.
 "Where does the grand jury hold sessions?" he asked in a quiet tone of voice.
 "Third floor" answered the oblig- irg Magee, as he stepped aside to allow his passenger to get aboard.
 Reporters sWarmed to then eleva- ter. Have you been called as a witness" one asked.
 Mo-" replied MT. Oliver.
 Are you going to the grand jury room?" asked the same reported.
 "Yes," was the reply.
 The interviewer was non-plussed. fire you an accountant or mes senger from some bank?" he asked. Again the reply was. No"
 At the ultimate point of perplex- ity, the interviewer demanded in dcsperation:
 "Well then, what is the connec- tion of your going before the jury?"
 "Oh, just want to listen to what's going on," was the nonchalant re- ply.
 He then very obligingly gave his name and occupation. Mir. Magee hastily informed the would-be sight-seer that he would not be all lowed into the jury room as spec tator-and threw his elevator into reverse-bringing the passenger back to the main floor of the courthouse.
 T should have known he wasn't a witness" said reporter. He gave his name too readily"
 MT. Oliver is the second individual who attempted to crash the gate of the grand jury. At the early stages of the probe Jacob Levy. op- orator of the Compo inn, at Vest port was also invited to leave when he entered unbidden and unwanted.

Waterbury Delegation Among Largest Present at Convention Opening
Interesting Exhibits Arranged in Connection With 74tt Annual Session-Nationaly Known
 Authorities to Give Addresses

If you couldn't get an appoint ment with your dentist this morn ing it was because he, with numer- ous other Waterbury practitioners of the science relating to oral hy- giene, exadontia, and such, are in New Haven for the 74th annual meeting of the Connecticut State Dental Association.
 The meeting opened at g o'clock in the Troup Junior High School with a business session including the report of Dr. Abraham Rosoff, of New Haven, president of the association and committee appoint mentS.
 Greeted by Mayor
 Mayor John w. Murphy of New Haven, welcomed the delegates at noon when a luncheon opened the general sessions of the three-day meeting. The speaking program started at l o'clock with a paper read by Dr. Finn J. Bronner, D. D. g., of New York city, professor of

Commissioner years budget of the health depart ment for this maintenance and it was suggested that such an item be set up next year.
 Nursing Care
 A new item in the budget for nursing care furnished the G. U. clinic by Waterbury hospital was suggested by Controller Sherwood l.. Rowland and the board recom- mended to the board of finance that this be done. Transfers must be made from available funds in the department to provide the $350 in payments to the hospital which the controller has held up because, he said, there is no specific appropria- tion for the purpose.
 It was suggested that $500 be transferred from department salar- ies and $50 from G. U. supplies to provide the funds under specific item.
 Dr. Nelson A. Pomeroy, who was reappointed member of the board last January, attended his first meeting and was sworn as mem Der. He has been in Florida during the winter.
 Dr. Godfrey reported new cases of communicable diseases during the past month as follows: Chicken pox, 10; lobar pneumonia, 20; deaths from same, 8; measles, 2; humps, 4: bronchial pneumonia, g with 2 deaths; scarlet fever, 34; pulmonary tuberculosis, 9 with deaths; whoop- ing cough, 4; influenza, l.; tetanus, l with death; syphilis, 10; gonorr- hoea, 6.

section, IS tangle or controversy between a number of persons in volved. The latest hitch came when Controller Sherwood L. Row. land refused to pay MT. Hull $50 in cash for the right of way. The Board of Finance sustained the con- troller in his contention that per- son owing taxes must apply any credit from the city against the un- paid levy.
 Recognize Right
 So, MT. Hull told City Engineer Charles A. Root that the price, un- less for cash consideration, had gone up to $500. Board members last night agreed that the owner of the land had a right to make his own terms and the only other recourse the city has would be to call in the State Department of Health to force the EdgeWood avenue sewer through as a safeguard of sanitation - or, pay MT. Hull's price. The former phase would require lengthy litiga- | tion, it was presumed.
 Protest over the condition of South Main street resulted in motion by Commissioner Joseph H. Lawlor that the State Highway Department be asked to hasten it's long-approved paving program for the section. The Waterbury Buckle Company in- formed the board that dust from the dirt-filled holes left last year in the preliminary city work on the state devised project of paving, sweeps into the factory and hampers opera tions. Motorists have protested, as well, the condition of the main thoroughfare which has resembled a shell-torn war area for many months.
 Motions Passed Commissioner James A. Phelan moved that the Street Department spread quarry dust over the street as a temporary measure while the State Highway Department is im- portuned to start the paving pro- gram approved long ago. Both motions were passed.
 Numerous persons appeared at the public hearing after the board meeting and several requested sewers for Burr street, a matter which the board had considered and which is in the hands of the engi- neering department for study of whether two lots should be pur- chased by the city to provide outlet for the proposed sewer. Mrs. Mary 1 Campbell has offered the two lots as part payment on taxes due. This was recommended by the street con- mittee.
 Request from a nonresident of Cooke street for installation of a sidewalk between Roseland and Pennington avenues resulted in ad- vice from the board that the resi- dents of the street present petition for such a project, for which they would pay half of the cost.
 Partly Done
 Requests of Bunker Hill avenue residents for widening that street between Coniston avenue and New ton terrace resulted in requirement that a petition and grade layout for the street be presented. Estimate of cost of completing the layout on Hawthorne avenue was asked of the engineering department when resi- dents told the board that part of the work was done, the rest ap- proved some time ago.
 The Board of Finance was asked to provide money for repair of pave ment in Watertown and Oakville, torn up when the city installed

Action Expected On
 Isolation Hospital
Health Board Names Committee to Cooperate With Tuberculosis League; Temporary Patients Accepted

A committee to act with a similar body from the Anti-Tuberculosis league to arrange availability of the isolation hospital for tubercular cases waiting to get into state san taoria was appointed and empower ed to act last night at the meeting of the board of health. Dr. Andrew J. Jackson, president, will serve ex- officio with Dr. Edward H. Kirsch- baum, Comsr. J. Francis Smith, and Dr. Edward J. Godfrey, city health officer.
 Ask Maintenance
 While Dr. Jackson pointed out that the city has offered the isola- tion hospital to the state repeatedly for $l year, with 99-year lease, if desired, the state has not accept ed the proffer. The Anti-Tubercu- losis league at a recent meeting voted to request the city to pro- vide maintenance of the hospital and to act with the league com- mittee in arranging for care of the patients stipulated.

Perfect Type' Judge Mascolo Holds Youth as Example of Perfect Klep-
 tomanic-Steals
 for Thrill.

Cited by Judge Edward Mascolo as "a perfect example of a klep- tomaniac," Allan Watt, 37, was bound over to the June criminal term of superior court after a city court hearing today. He is charg- ed with theft.
 Watt was arrested Sunday night at a beauty parlor at POP Walnut street by Patrolmen Edward Hunt and Anthony Mole. The front door of the establishment had been forced open to gain entrance.
 The wires of radio set in the beauty parIor had been discon- nected and tied around the set.
 Watt has long police record. His defense was that he had been drinking and did not know what he was doing.
 q think this court has shown the accused sufficient leniency in the past" said Judge Mascolo. He is perfect example of a kleptomaniac. Perhaps institutional care Of some kind may help him and with this idea in mind I bind him over to the next term of su- perior court"

Hartford, May 4. - High Repub- lican leaders can be seen these days in serious conferences here regard ing the participation of their party in the fall election and attempting to learn the public's reaction to the Grand Jury probe in Fairfield County which ended last week and the one which is still underway in Waterbury. These leaders are plainly worried, for they know that the disclosures which the probes have brought forth have done their party more harm than anything during the last 100 years.

Parker Mourned
 As True Bolsheuik

The Jeath of Dewitt Parker has brought deep grief to the Communist party of Waterbury.
 Dewitt Parker was a Com munist. He loved life and the people. When the unhappy peO- pie of Spain were brutally at tackled by the black beast of re- action, Fascism, Dewitt felt that it was his duty to take his place in the front line trench es. There he gave his life.
 His loss is great to Commu- nists and non Communists. The people of Connecticut had learned to love and respect him.
 Dewitt was modest, intel ligent and courageous young American and true Bolshevik. His forefathers fought in the Revolutionary war to establish the principle of democracy; he tough in Spain to preserve 1t.
 We are proud of our young men of the Abraham Lincoln Washington battalion. We are proud of America, of Dewitt and of our party.
 The memory of Dewitt Park CT and all he loved and so de- vOtedly worked for shall be kept alive forever the history of Connecticut along side the inn perishable names of those other fighters for liberty and demOc- racy, John Brown and Nathan Hale.
 Communist Party of Water bury, 247 So. Main street. Note: Dewitt Parker was former employe of the ScOvill Manufacturing company. He was 8 candidate on the local COmmunistic ticket several years ago. He was killed in Spain last month while fight ing for the Loyalists.
