SINABALDI RATED
 TOUGH FOR CAINER

New Haven, Sept. 19.-Al Nelson Goiner, New HavenS Black Pan- thsr, gets his big test at the Arena on next Tuesday night when he goes to the wars against Al Sinibaldi, Berlin, N. H., Italian, in an eight round tuSSle.
 Another attractive eight-round pairing will show Angelo Rodano, Norwak lightweight, against Frankie Foley, New Haven Irishman. This pair met twice in the past six months, both fights being of the sensational nature.
 For Gamer, it may be the end of the trail or the start of a drive to return matches with Nathan Mann, and a last bid for the 175-pound title.
 He isn't facing a "soft one" in Sinibaldi. Those who saw Al drop an unpopular decision to Hobo Wil- Hams know that. He has lost only two fights in 28 starts, and has IA kayoes on his record.
 A two-hsted fighting fool, Sini- baldi also has chin of granite. Thus, Gainer will have to shoot the works against his young opponent, who also has designs on a bout with Mann.
 There will be five three round bouts on the undercard. This is a new type of show which will be pre- sented at popular prices.

Protection Needed

Investigation by the Board of Educa ton of alleged thefts of clothing from the schools comes, unfortunately, at time when overcoatS are about to be discarded for spring apparel leaving little in the dressing rooms to be stolen. It is to be hoped, though, that the Board will not let it's investigations drop, but will endeavor to find some way out Of puzzling and annoying situation.
 Pupils are entitled to protection dur ing the school hours and if the present set-up is not adequate to insure it, then some steps should certainly be taken to provide them with the necessary facill- ties. Of course, when you come right down to it no lock can be applied that can't be picked by someone desperate enough to steal students hats and coats. But if the invitation to pick up better piece of wearing apparel than the one you own is Haunted in front of boys and girls lacking in honesty something must be done to remove it.
 It's question whether conditions are any worse now than they have been right along. A thorough probe by the school authorities might reveal that these de- plorable conditions have existed for a long time and in buildings where the classes are not so cramped as they are in Leavenworth High school. All of which calls for prompt and decisive action on the part of the authorities all the time. Mere reports and perfunctory checkups will not end these acts. There has to be the application of stern justice.
The Waterbury Democrat., 1940-04-08
Decorating the Windshields

Once upon time it was forbidden by law in this state to decorate the windows Of an automobile with any type of sticker or placard. This law was enforced at a time when there was craze for decora- tions on windshields and rear windows. Authorities agreed that sooner or later accidents were going to be blamed on obscured driving visibility and that the best thing was to kill off the fad before it was too firmly established. There have been more or less efforts to enforce this law ever since. with considerable success. In fact, the law was broadened to include a ban on decorations or ornaments on or adjacent to license plates.
 With the establishment of the testing lanes it became necessary to permit past ing of stickers on windshields to show that the vehicle had passed inspection. This was not a noticeable infraction of the statute because the sticker was small ana usually out of the way. But now Coroner Theodore E. Steiber of Fairfield County proposes that in an effort to de- tect unlicensed drivers all car-oWnerS be compelled to display their licenses and photograph in frame on the windshield.
 This idea is probably adopted from New York City'S law compelling taXicab drivers to display prominently so that occupants of the car may see their registrations together with picture. However, if Connecticut drivers were to adopt this same plan, we'd urge that something more than "rogues' gallery" print be used. Most of the pictures in N. Y taxis look far different than the driver. There may be merit in the coro- ner's suggestion, but we wonder if the number of unlicensed drivers operating on our highways warrants the experi- ment.
