 Since last Friday, women interest ed in taking the 80-hour training course have been calling at the bur- eau, and telephoning to arrange for appointments.

Connors were con- spicuous by their absence from Waterbury Friday and Saturday, having journeyed under orders 10 the main station at Springfield, Mass, in order that they might re- ceive their routine physical exam ination and periodical shots. but this time the shots" were some- what different from what the mar ines usually give out, the said shots, being fired into their backs from hypodermic needle in the able hands of Chief Pharmacist Ma.e Kushin, U. S. Navy.
 The first bird having been killed, the second took flight with the awarding of the efficiency flag to the district of Springfield for hav- ing enlisted the greatest percent age of men over the previous month of any other district in the east ern states.

JULY WEATHER
 PREVAILS HERE
Summer Apparel in Evi- dence Today With Ther.
 mometer Registering S2

An unrelenting sun continued its record -shattering fall frolic today, with the mercury perching at an unreasonable 82, shortly after noon today. Reminiscent of mid-July, To- cal citizenry doffed autumn attire, end walked the streets clad in polo shirts, silks dresses and garments customarily seen only III the tropics ct this time of year.
 Tho mercury bid fair today to eclipse yesterdays high of a4. the hottest October 5th reported since iGB6. Sundays reading was 5l de- grees warmer than the 8 recorded on October 5, 1940. During the course of the night the thermometer cooled of to 72, but ln the morning once more resumed Its astonishing upward course.
 Traffic in this ctiy was the heav- fest noted here in some time in spite of the gasoline curfew. Cooling drinks and ice cream purveyors did brisk business. Many expressed re- gret that similar weather had not been experienced in August, al- though hardy few availed them selves of the brief reprieve from the impending winter to go swimming in nearby lakes.
 The pleasure felt by the city's population was not reflected in other quarters, however. The prolonged dry spell continues to endanger crops, and the peril of drought re- mains urmitigated. Forest fires still blazed in the northern regions of New England, with little relief ex- pected until heavy rainfalls develop.
 The weather today, perched pre- cariously on a limb, promised cooler weather and rain tomorrow.
