 Jimmy Knew
 A few more fights followed-tri- umphs over Tony Canzoneri and Lou Ambers-and Jimmy retired. That was in 1936. McLarnin knew when tc quit. He had seen too many fighters who didn't.
 McLarnin now lives well but not cstentaticusly He has a home in Beverly Hills and his chief concern is keeping his golf game in the low 7os. He and his wife-he waited until after his ring days to marry belong to the exclusive Lakeside golf club. where most of the film cele- brities play
 Down to the grimy boxing gyms you can hear that Jimmy is high hat. Maybe so, but the charges come from gentlemen who could use a new hat themselves. Mo Larnin, after 15 years in boxing's odd atmosphere, has earned what ever he has.

Commissioner Damon in Salvation Army for
 50 Years

Commissioner Alexander M. Da- mon will publicly install Major Har- old Zealley as divisional officer for the Southern New England Division next Thursday evening in Hartford.

Washington (SpeciaD - Every morning Lord Lothian receives from the British Foreign Office cabled summary of the results of German air raids over London. Anxious that the United States Government have every shred of information regarding the war, he sends this cabled summary to the White House.
 This is probably the most au- thentic report of what is now go- ing on in Great Briatin. It gives names of places bombed, together with casualties. Recently, of course, bombardments have been so heavy and so scattered that it has been difficult to make the re- port complete, but from these and other Intelligence reports re- ceived in Washington here are a few indications as to how the Battle of Britain is going:
 CD Before the intensi1cation of Hitler's air raids, Nazi airmen concentrated on industrial plants, shipping and railroads. AS re- ported in this column, they had done considerably more damage than got by the censors, though not enough seriously to threaten Britain.
 (2) Now the raids are staged at night instead of in the daytime, as previously, and pilots can now only roughly guess the location of the targets. This indiScriminate, almost random bombardment un- doubtedly is calculated to shake the morale of the English people in preparation for actual invasion; though a secondary factor is Hit ler's pique at Britain's raids over Berlin.
 @ Damage to property since the intensification of air raids has been tremendous, but it has been scattered among civilian areas and actual damage to military ob- jectives has not been much great CT proportionately than before.
 (4) Most serious damage has been the gradual weakening of Britain,s air defenses, including the Royal Ari Force. The British scarcely have time to get their de- lenses in shape again before the next raid is upon them. Further more, little by little the propor- tion of German planes shot down as compared with the number of

by the Sisters of St. Joseph. Mother Sacred Heart, who has been with the hospital for a number of years, is superintendent, and capably handles its operation, and is assisted by a large corps of nursing sisters. The training school for nurses is among the best.
 The hospital was opened for the care of patients in 1909, and is re- garded as a monument to the mem- ory of the late Monsignor William J. Slocum, pastor of the church of the Immaculate Conception, and through whose efforts the first funds were raised, his own personal contribution of $20,000, among the first contributions of the many that followed. Many well known Wa terbury residents were among the early donors, of money, and wards were furnished by Dr. D. J.

 Addition
 The original building, now called the old wing, was added to over twenty years ago. During the years since 1909 the hospital grew in stature. More sisters were added, larger medical staffs were included and the Training School for Nurses had larger classes each year. Up until a short time ago the two joined structures were adequate, but gradually the need was seen for another addition, which was started in the spring of 1940 and which, it is expected, will be com- pleted by winter. The new wing will be finely equipped in every respect and will have facilities to care for the increased number of patients, to include private rooms, wards and operating rooms.
 Early Officers
 The late Most Rev. John J. Milan, D. D., was first president, and Mother Xavier first superintendent and the board of directors included the late Rev Luke Fitzsimons. Some of the original directors are still active on the board, as well as some of the original medical staff including Dr. John Freney, Dr. M J. Lawlor, Dr. J. H. Dillon, Dr. P J. Dwyer and Dr. P. J. Brennan Most Rev. MauriceF. McAuliffe of Hartford is now its patron and president.
 Active during the thirty years o1 the hospitals existence was Dr. J L. Moriarty, and also many other. since deceased, including Dr. Johr E. Farrell who died at the hospita this year, and Dr. Thomas E. Parker lately deceased.
