usual care and courtesy in motor ve- hicle operation. '-..
 Property >amages
 The cost in dollars and cents as shown by actual property damage reports reached $2,522,13 as com pared with $1,956,575 for 1886. This figure, the commissioner emphasized does not include the dollars and cents cost of lives lost, families thrown on private or public charity, etc. The increase of 1,537 in tenn porary or permanent crippling of occupants and pedestrians involves disqualification, loss of earning pow CT and other costs which are charges against traffic accidents. When the total cost of traffic accidents in Connecticut for Su, a year as 1887 is developed it would run between ten and twelve millions on the basis of estimates used by insurance com- panies.
 With few exceptions the same trend in causation factors is shown for 1887 as has been recorded in past years. The majority of the accidents 13,732, were caused on straight, dry road surfaces in the daytime ill- volving cars of new or comparative ly recent manufacture operated by drivers with at least one years ex- perience and in more than two- thirds of accidents witt. more than five years experience in motor ve- hicle operation. There were 29,789 men operators involved in 1897 &C., cidents as compared with 3,360 women. AS always the age group frome 20 to 29 years furnished the largest total of operators involved of any similar ten year age group.
 Dusk" Group
 There is never much difference in day and night totals of traffic acci- dents but, adding in the "dusk" group, weighs down the night total so that it overbalances the daytime mishaps, 10,060 to 9,747. Saturday still develops the greatest one days total followed by Sunday. The pe- riod from o'clock in the afternoon to 9 in the evening is consistently a dangerous time of day with the sin- gle hour from o'clock to 6 reach ing the peak. The traffic accident pattern developed years ago when traffic flow became heavy seems to maintain through the years, in creases being prorortionate in the various classifications of the acci- dent summary.
 Lack of data prevents accurate estimate of the importance of al- cohol as a factor in traffic accidents, the known facts not even approach ing the unofficial information re- ceived by the department.

winter IS finally taking the count.
 Sometime this week or early next Ca little earlier, south of the Bos- ton region; a little later, north) the museum advises, watch for a rise in temperature, especially in com- bination with a southwest wind Over night the silent, lifeless coun- tryside will come alive with the first feathered arrivals from the south.
 Among them is the bluebird, which brings flash of summer azure into the midst of March bliz- zards. The robin will be seen darting about the lawns for worms. The marshes will become vocal with red winged blackbirds with their con- tinual cry of "cong-quer-ree" as they swoop from one cattail to the next. These, however, are the males; the females will not arrive for ten days yet, and meanwhile their fu- ture mates spend jho time each choosing his own particular ter ritory.

POLI'S

The song hits of tomorrow are in the movies of today. More than two- thirds of the popular songs now on the market are introduced on the ater screens throughout the country.
 Manhattan Merry-Go-Round," music-fest, fun-feSt, which opens Wednesday at the Loew Poli theater for a three-day engagement, has a series of new tunes which are des- tined to be headliners on the air waves within very short time.
 Have You Ever Been in Heaven" and T Owe You" sung by Phil Began to the beauteous Miss Ann Dvorak, are romantic numbers which will set plenty of hearts to throbbing. Mama, I Wanna Make Rhythm" offered by Cab Galloway and his famous orchestra, is spe- cialty number delivered in the "scat" manner made famous in the dusky maestro's Minnie the Moocher".
 All Over Nothing At All" will come in for its share of popularity, as will Roundup Time in Reno, and the Musical, Magical Man" number sung by Ted Lewis and his orchestra.
 The cowboy influence is felt in Manhattan Merry Go Round" with the presence of Gene Autry. ace cowboy singer of stage, screen and radio, who heretofore has con- fined his talents exclusively to horse opera.
 The second big hit on this pro- gram is "Kliou, the Killer" the sen- sational and terrifying drama of man eating tiger.
 Current attractions at Loew's Poli include "The Goldwyn Follies", filmeed entirely in technicolor, with large cast of notables. from stage. screen and radio, including Edgar Bergen and Charles Mccarthy, Adolphe Menjou, Andrea Leeds, Ella Logan, Ritz Brothers, Zorina. and theh American Ballet.

YALE BUILDING
 AMONG OLDEST
Connecticut Hall, Built in l752, Houses 2Oth
 Century Students

More than a century and half old, the familiar structure at Yale University known as Connecticut Hall proves to be the fourth old est academic building in the United States still in active use, according to survey of enduring college buildings just completed by Hegeman- Harris Company, Inc, New York builders who have many campus structures to their credit. Built of brick and completed in l752, Connecticut Hall has served as a dormitory for many genera tiens and now houses Yale's tWen- tisth century students"
 Another centenarian listed among Connecticut's old college buildings and still in use by the "streamlined" youth of today is South College at Wesleyan University. The survey lists over forty colleges and uni versailles where students still study, play or sleep in buildings erected one hundred years or more ago, and at least ten of these structures date back to the seventeen hundreds. Brick, it appears, was the predomi- nant structural material used in these more lasting academic build ings, and it is pointed out most of the college landmarks that finger in the memories of graduates as symbols and traditions of their school are of this material. Their structures were built to endure, and they stand as historic monuments, recalling our country's early days to succeeding generations of stu dentS."
 In summarizing the results of their survey, Hegeman-Harris em- phasize again the vital importance of good design, careful planning and sound construction in erecting our college buildings, "so that they may be fully qualified to carry academic and historical traditions out of the past into the future"

Mike Sauchelli, City's First Aerial Performer,
 Here Over Weekend

A hometown boy who has scaled the dizzy heights to be- come "tops" in his profession, spent the weekend here renewing acquaintances and giving the na- tives a glimpse or preview of what the smart Broadwayite will be sporting in next Easter Sundays fashion parade. We have reference to Michael J. Sauchelli, Mike of sartorial fame, Mike, who is rec ognized as the constructor and flyer of the first aeroplane in Wa terbury, Mike who has thrilled thousands with his daredevil stunts, climbing smoke stacks, church steeples and even walking on the wings of aeroplanes in flight. Literally speaking Mike in coast-to-coast exhibitions has given more people 8 pain in the neck than any six stunt perform CTS in history-and has made the people like it. For to see one in Mikes profession you must gaze skyward.

Neighh0rly Drivers
 Traffic accidents numbered 20,- 156 last year in Connecticut, involv- ing 33,719 operators from Connecti- cut and thirty-two other states. Participation by foreign" operators, however, did not amount to much numerically, the number being only 3,553 Massachusetts and New York are the home states of operators outside Connecticut involved in the most accidents. Fatal accidents were reduced from 408 during 1886 to 389 last year and fatal accidents caused at night showed decrease which was partially offset by an increase in dusk" fatal mishaps.
 Motar vehicle travel over Connec- ticut highways was estimated to be about 4,O75, ,695 ,672 miles or an ia- crease of 342 2,184,202 miles over the previous calendar year. Such a tre- mendous increase in use of the same highways was bound to develop an accident increase, said the commits sioner, unless compensated by un-

OPINION GIVEN ON
 LICENSED NURSES
Passing Examinations Not Exclusive Requirement
 Says Deputy Atty Gen.

Even though they have passed the required examinations, nurses cannot practice until they have secured licenses, says Deputy At torney General Dennis F. O'Connor in an opinion. He holds that the state board of health has been al- lowing nurses to practice illegally
 The opinion was sought by State Health Commissioner Stanley Os- born, who informed the attorney generals office that candidates for registration as nurses are informed as to whether or not they passed their examinations by Nov. 30. They are then, he said, allowed to practice until January, when they are given their registrations.
 Tt is hard for me to understand why any registered nurse would practice nursing without having in her possession a certificate of reg istration, as required ...... and it is still more difficult to believe that any board of examination and registration which is familiar with the duties of its office would permit, much less advise, any nurse to practice nursing before her certificate had been issued"
 The fact that nurse qualities does not entitle her to practice nursing and if she does practice, she is acting illegally and is sub ject to the penalties provided by law.
 NO nurse,' concludes the opin- ion, shall practice as a registered nurse in this state until he or she shall recieve a certificate of regis traitor, and every registered nurse shall register with the state depart ment of health during January"
