Cooperation of parents with the police department in maintaining the citys safety record during the vacation season is asked for today by Police Superintendent William J. Roach. He asks that parents warn their children to exercise care when on foot or on bicycles.
 The schools have cooperated splendidly with the police in the local safety campaign, and have done much to lower the number of accidents involvinug children, says Supt. Roach. But with schools not in session, he goes on, children may tend to become careless unless ad- vised frequently by their parents on the importance of safety pre- cautions.
 Police Face Problems
 Supt. Roach'S statement follows:
 School is out. Summer vacation is here. Now the problem de- velops for the police department"
 "As it is now, all of the chil- dren of school age are pretty much under control. That is, they pass to and from school at definite hours of the day and cross the streets at definite places. Consequently, we can station of ficers at the designated cross ings and see to it that they cross the streets safely. We receive splendid help from the teachers for they have made the children of Waterbury safety conscious and alert in their use of streets and highways. The teachers are do- ing a fine job and they are to be congratulated"
 However, our problem develops a few weeks after school has closed. The younger children for get their safety lessons. The dis cipline instilled by the supervision of the teachers is missing and they have lost to a certain de- gree the safety consciousness de- veloped during the school year. Then. our problem develops-it

Birth Control Cases
 OnSeptember Docket
Trial of Drs Nelson and Goodrich, Mrs. McTernan Is
 Expected During Fall Session of Superior Court

Health Center, have pleaded not guilty to violations of sections 6246 ad 6562 of the general statutes, and elected to be tried by a jury.
 No Bonds Posted
 Judge Kenneth Wynne, who issued the bench warrants for the arrest of the trio, denied a motion by States Attorney William B. Fitzgerald that bonds of $500 be posted for release. He released the three in the custody of their counsel, Lawrence L. Lewis
 Attorney Lewis, who was accom- panied by Attorney J. Warren Up- son, in the defense of the accused, reserved the right to withdraw the not guilty plea. in the event any preliminary motions might be made.
 He said today that such motions might be made in the near future, but did not discuss their identity.
 The two young doctors and Mrs. McTernan who operates school for boys on Columbia Boulevard. were present in court yesterday at the issuance of the warrants. They surrendered immediately. MT. Lewis informed Judge Wynne that the proceedings had been agreed upon.
 When States Attorney Fitzgerald asked that bonds be set at $500 in each case, Attorney Lewis argued for their parole in his custody. Judge Wynne commented that his information of the case was "sketchy," but that he believed the three to be connected profession- ally with some clinic. MT. Fitzgerald stated that such was the case, and that several such clinics were in operation throughout the state.
 Opinions Differ
 Judge Wynne stated that he was confident in this case the opin- ions differ as to the religious, moral or ethical aspects"
 He said that probably. the ac- cused had acted according to what they thought they had the right to do- and therefore he could see no reason for fixing 8 bond.
 In his informationS, States At- 9At15C tA11A SCS uAAA VI counts against Dr. Nelson singularly and three counts against Dr. Good rich and Mrs. McTernan jointly.
 Dr. Nelson is charged with giving birth control assistance to a mar ried woman 27 years of age, Janu- ary IT, 1889; a married woman, age q, October IS, 1888; and a married woman, age 27, on February 28, 1889.
 Dr. Goodrich and Mrs. McTernan are charged with giving birth con- trol assistance to a married woman, age g, January 31. 1889; a married woman, age g, November 8. 1888; and a married woman, age p, Mo- vember 9, 1888. Violations of the two sections cited in the informations carry penalties, for conviction, of 60 days to a year in Jail, or $50 fine, or both. The principal statute precludes the use of medicine, drugs, or medical in- struction to prevent conception.

Pitches Tonight - Yanks Need HurIers Pal Dodgers
 Take Giants Again
BY GEORGE KIRKsEY GJnltAd preRs Stan COrrespondentl

United Press Stan COrrespondent)
 New York, June 1 - (UP.) - One of the big questions as the ma jor leagues opened their third in- tersectional series today was, "how much will Passeau help the Cubs?"
 The answer may have considerable effect on determining the National League penr1ant winner. If Claude Passeau, obtained by the Cubs from the Phillies for three players and cash (which wasn't mentioned in the deaD, can pitch winning ball then the champions cannot be dis counted easily.
 Passeau will get his first test in a Cub uniform tonight when he faces the Dodgers in the opening of the National Leagues nocturnal sched- ule. The first National League night game at Philadelphia also is sched- uled tonight between the Pirates and Phils.
 Despite Dizzy Deans two winning performances, the Cubs have been losing favor lately because of the failure to generate more punch and Dick Bartell's loose play around shortstop. It's up to Passeau to put new life in the Cubs or Gabby Hart nett's pennant machine is likely to sputter too much to keep up with the field.
 one of the big topics in the American League as the eastern clubs moved into the west for their second invasion concerned the Yan- kees' pitching problem. Joe McCar- thy is crying for pitching help, which is laugh to everyone else considering the Tanks 1-2 game lead.
 But the Tanks pitching actually is wavering and if Red Rulings arm doesn't show improvement with the hot weather Mccarthy may actual ly be up against it for hurlers. Only one Yankee, Rookie Alley Donald, has gone the route in the last five games.
 Brooklyn walloped the Giants, 7-4 in the only major league game yes- terday, making six wins out of the last seven for the Dodgers. Luke Hamlin held the Giants to six hits for his fifth victory. Johnny Hud- sons singl drove in the winning run in the eighth. Al Todd,s double added two more for good measure.
