Rowland's Refusal
 D~lays Sewer Work
Fails 10 Honor Acquisitions of Engineering Depart- '' ment-Awaits Boards Approval

Refusal Of Controller Sherwood L. Rowland to honor acquisitions for materials, although he admits that $43,000 iil street bond funds is available for such outlay, is holding tip one of the most important city construction projects, the trunk sewer on North Main street, the board of public works was informed last night. The board had voted that work start at its last meeting and 13 men and a foreman have been working by hand" since that time, unable to get dynamite or lumber because Controller Rowland has refused to honor the reQuiSi- .tions of City Engineer Charles A. Root.
 States Plans
 Further, the state plans paving this section on North Main street, b tween City Mills lane and Chest- nut Hill road, this spring as part of the trunk highway system voted by the last legislature. Unless the work is handled expeditiously, cost to the city will be greatly increased once tke state starts Its construction.
 Shortly after two communications from the controller had been read, the 'rst outlining totals of funds available, the second refusing to honor materials acquisitions until they had been approved by the board of finance (next regular meet ing March 3, the board held pub lie hearing on the North Main street sewer. Five persons out of 35 property owners opposed while residence owners from the section begged for immediate carrying out of the program as "a sanitary need" {"
 Among those voting for the sewer was a relative representing Wales r"-ter, Waterburys only sur- viving veteran of the Civil War.
 Appeal to Board
 The board of public works, which already had approved the project ari empowered the city engi. neer and superintendent of Streets Thomas J. Fleming to pro- ceed with the sewer construction, then passed a vote recommending that the board of finance instruct the controller to honor the requisi- tions.
 Tt seems a shame" Commissioner Albert Loeffler commented. That work should be held up." This wos in reference to the delay occa- stoned by waiting for the finance

boards action in relation to, Con- troller Rowland.
 Executive Secretary Thomas F. Kelly and City Engineer Root re- ported to the board that they had conferred with Controller Rowland for Ian hour and half' on the matter of his refusal to hopoF the acquisitions for materials. This was after the city engineer was told last week by the controller:
 T need more time to think it over, Give me until Monday" Note Arrives
 When no answer was forthcoming Monday, the officials visited the controller to see what the delay was about. Fe hadn't made up his mind. But, at 5 o'clock last night, the note to City Engineer Root arrived, tell- ing the city engineer that Controller Rowland would 'have to take the matter" to the board of finance for approval.
 The board received report that of the $1,30O,0 900 street improvement bonds authorized by the last legis- lature, $T00,000 were sold and the requested report from Controller Rowland indicated that about $58,- 900 of this money remained. De- ducting various charges and 5000 for possible further expense" the controller reported a net of about $38, 200" as available for the North Main sewer project.
 Seek Funds Thereafter the board voted to ask the board of finance to recommend to the board of aldermen that the rest of the street improvement bond issue be sold to provide funds for the paving of section of Baldwin street, project with which the state highway department will cooperate.
 Requests from Controller Row land and Acting Superintendent of Welfare Mary Doyle Camp for changes in office paritioning were referred to the building commit tee. The controller wants to have the front office" barriers changed to a railing instead of the present stands and framework with windows which are the vogue in other City Hell offices of similar business cate gory.
 Water Billings Water billings for February were reported as $29,242, or $2oO more than for the month last year.

Mrs. Samuel w. Peck of New York has long been rated one of the best women bridge players. In fact, if a vote were taken in her own circle at the Regency club, there is no doubt she would be ac- corded the palm.
 She plays in national and inter national events occasionally, and last summer was member of the women'S team-of-four in the Buda- pest tournament. Her adeptness in the play of the cards is shown by the manner in which she fulfilled her slam contract on today's hand.

Kitchen appliances which fasten to table or shelf by a clamp device sometimes mar the surface and, if they do not fit exactly, twist and slip during a stiff workout.

had to use other tactics.
 She realized her only chance of success was for West to hold both the king and queen of spades. The trump led was won in dummy, and a small spade led. West put up the king, and was permitted to hold the trick. He returned another trump which was won in dummy, and a spade returned and the jack finness- ee.
 Now all was plain sailing. The ace and king of hearts were cashed, spade ruffed in dummy, and the losing spade discarded on the heart queen. Mrs. Peck was fortunate in finding an even break in the trump suit.
