along by two good bracerS, Leo, Pow
loski and Ed. Standard trimmed
the Ducks, with F. Pachulski at the
helm. According to the scores he
rolled all by himself.
The Owls have it. Yes, the Owls
with ]. Posila bossing them beat
the Pheasants, what a name to
spell", two up. For the Owls G. May
and j. Hinkelman did the most
damage but that wasn't much. B.
Lenda and H. Posila had the most
pep for the losers.
Peacocks with 1547 had high three
while the Pheasants with 532 took
high game.
Jack Schvenki, cigar and all, had
high thre, $50. G. Wutick, forgot to

To eliminate confusion now exist

sortly it was learned today.
At present Connecticut systems
are tied up with those of other New

tie-ups and jumbles often occur.
The proposed system would locate

Hartford where unesSential mes
sages coming in from other states
would be cleared. Connecticut sta
