OF PASSION PLAY
DR.. Anton Lang to Lecture
in Hartford Sunday for
Mission League

An illustrated lecture, "Oberam-
mergau and the Passion Play, will
be given at Bushnell Memorial in
Hartford, Sunday afternoon, March
10, sponsored by the Maryknoll Sis
ters' Mission League of Hartford, by
Anton Lang, Jr., at one time actively
identified with the Passion Play in
his native Bavaria. Mr.. Lang re-
ceived his early education in Ger
man universities, later at Holy Cross
college in this country, also the
University Of Grenoble in France.
In 1882 he was appointed to the
teaching staff at Georgetown Uni
versity, Washington, D. C., where he
Is professor Of German and German
literature.
Mr.. Lang's lecture will include COL
ored slides of the original play as
produced at Oberammergau. 1t was
here that he spent his early years
and had part as did his father,
who played the Christus in the orig
inal, in carrying on the Passion Play
tradition.
Miss Kathryn w. Hayes of "a
Summer street this city is assisting
the committee on arrangements
which Is headed by Mrs. James E.
Carroll and Miss Claire Farrell of
Hartford. Information about the
lecture may be had by calling Miss
Hayes at her residence. Tickets are

WRITER UPHOLDS
CLAIM OF MAYOR
Snow Condition in WOr-
Cester Disgrace to City
Says H. G. Student

The claim Of Mayor Vincent A.
Scully that snow conditions in Wor-
cester, Mass, are worse than in Wa
terbury is upheld in letter to The
Tomahawk, student publication OF
Holy Cross college, located in Wor-
cester.
The mayor answered q statement
by Alderman George L. Kingston
that Waterbury's streets were "the
worst in New England"
The student letter writer in Wor-
cester says:
"Since boarding students at Holy
Cross are not voters, the city fathers
Of Worcester, undoubtedly feel no
apprehension at our blasts but we
feel justified in criticizing the pres
ent situation. The job of snow re-
moval after the recent blizzard was
atrociously bungled. Rutted road,
slushy sidewalks, icy slopes and dirty
heaps Of snow have been prevalent
enough in this city but the present
condition beats all.
Indirectly the students help to
support the municipal government
and Hold Cross and South Wor-
cester in general deserve better
treatment than they have been get
ting In the matter of snow removal.
If the street department can't per-
form its duties reasonably well then
a renovation Is in order. The pres
ent situation is a disgrace to a city
Of Worcester's size"

TEACHERS CODE
in N. Y. REJECTED
Regardless of Hearing Inn
pairments, Fit Members
Will Be Retained

OF local interest is the rejection
in New York City Of rigid code of
standards for retiring teachers with
faulty hearing. At the last meeting
of the Board Of Education in this
city, Comsr. Emma G. Lowell made
the suggestion that teachers be SUBJ
jected to TN eye and ear test.
DR.. Harold G. Campbell, superin-
tendent Of schools in New York, in
announcing the rejection of the plan
by the Board Of superintendent,
said that teachers who convinced
their supervisors of their fitness to
teach successfully would not be re-
tired regardless Of their hearing i'm
pairment.
The board also turned down a
proposal to retire all teachers who
use mechanical hearing aids.
In general, the superintendent
said, tests involving only ability to
give efficient classroom service
would be continued to be given.
IF we find" he said, that q
teacher can prove that she can
teach best standing on her head, we
are perfectly willing that she should
conduct her classes standing on her
head"
The rejected proposal was made
to the New York city school system
by a two-man medical commission.

The local police department has
been called upon to assist Roger
Carr, 1887 Webb avenue, Detroit,
Mich, to locate victims of seller
osis, commonly known as "creep-
ing paralysis"
Believing that nothing is in
curable-the cure just hasn't been
found" Mr.. Carr hopes that by
forming an organization Of seller
osis victims he can disprove the
claims that the disease Is both
rare and incurable.
His efforts to find such victims
have so far succeeded in locating
sic such cases in all parts Of the
country.

Preparation of tax bills due for
payment in May began at the city
hall today. Lack of adequate office
space forced Tax Collector Humbert
Mangini to place the workers en-
gagged in making out the bills in the
aldermanic chamber, on the second
floor Of the municipal buildings.
Work Of preparing the bills will
be more difficult this year since the
bill Of each property owner who owes
back taxes or interest will be noted
on each statement. The amounts of
back taxes due will not be listed, but
the figures can be secured at the tax
collectors offlce.
Branches of the tax office are now
scattered about the city hall, since
there is not SUFFICIENT room In the
regular quarters on the first floor.
Mayor Vincent Scully and Mr.. Man
gini agree that Encouragement Of
other offices to allow for the central
ization Of the tax Office functions is
advisable but the task has proved a
difficult one. Griffenhagen g. Asso-
ciates, in report on the tax audit
a few months ago, recommended
that all the functions Of the Office
be grouped at one central place,
preferably on the first floor.
Approximately $1,000 tax bills are
to be mailed this year. They fall due
May /.
Receipts Of taxes during May will
enable the city to pay off a tempo
rary loan which was secured late
last December to allow for function
