MISTY BLANKET

Fair Weather Predicted
for This Evening and
Tomorrow Night

The heaviest fog in years shrouded
Waterbury last night accomplishing
a virtual black-out and forcing a
snail's pace on marooned motorists.
Experienced drivers reported the fog
SO thick that headlights were rem
dered. useless.
Weird professions of automobiles,
in many cases conveyed by trucks,
were reported crawling along the
outlying highways.
The fog descended on the city in
the wake of a midsummer day
when golf enthusiasts teed off in
great numbers on the various links,
and the benches on the Green were
filled to capacity by idlers. T he
misty blanket which covered the
Naugatuck Valley during the night
was caused, according to weather
experts, by the condensation of the
rain soaked ground when the mer-
curry dropped slowly to 54 degrees
from high Of IA registered at mid
afternoon.
At o'clock this afternoon the
mercury stood at SO degrees, with
fair weather promised for tonight
and tomorrow.

Hausfrau 0ccupies
Hitler Household

PHILADELPHIA, Dec. 13 CUP)-
A blonde, Bavarian girl has since
August occupied the position of
a regular German hausfrau in the
Berlin residence of Adolf Hitler,
q national magazine said today
in an article entitled, rs Hitler
Married?"
The magazine in an editorial note
said that the story came from a
source inside Germany (which we
have always found dependable.
The girl, Eva Helen Braun, "con-
ducts herself as if she were the
wife OF the Nazi dictator" the
article said.
"It seems incredible that Hitler,
the most publicized man of this
generation, could be involved in a
love affair for years while even
the girls name should remain
practically unknown both in Ger
many and abroad" the article con-
tinued. Nevertheless, that has
been true in Hitler's case.
However unsavory Hitler's in
ternational reputation may be, he
i1as selected a thoroughly conven-
tional mate. Against a background
of wars. revolts, bloody conuuests
and brutal suppressions Adolf Hit
Ter and Eva Braun have carried On
their colorless love affair for a
decade, experiencing the petty trials
and small pleasures of some sub
urban bank clerk and his intended
bride"
According to the article, the
Fuehrer, "amid campaigns and con-
quests" has been compelled to de-
vote time in soothing the feelings
of the girls family, because they
felt he had compromised her rep
utation."

The railroad contended the stat

that it was in violation of the fed
eral constitution and that it was
costing the firm more than 100000

Wednesday when a total Of

Judge Vaughn Thompson, gen.

a luncheon meeting at the Callfor-

be reached before the end OF the

Many teams still had not made
their final reports, Judge Thomp-

while we are still some distance
from our goal, we are confident
that the citizens of Ell Centre will

"The work of feeding undernour-

the public-spirited individuals who
are contributing their time and
energy to carry on the chest cam
paign.
