Plans to fight induction Of fire men into the army were made yeS- terday at session of the board of fire commissioners. Chief Thomas F. CaVanaugh was instructed to draw up q list of the names of every member of the department but 8 number of others are anticipating early induction and have been making plans to enlist in the navy or coast guard.
 Chairman F1nton J. Phelan de- clared at yesterdays meeting that trained firemen are in the first line of defense in total war and that a city of Waterbury's importance has greater need for their services than the army or navy.
 Speaking against enlistments by firemen, Chairman Phelan said, We recognize and admire the spirit of these men who feel 1t is their pa- triottc duty to take their places in the armed forces in these strenuous times, but we know from the facts before us that skilled firemen in a city like Waterbury are perform ing greater service to their coun-

A.W.O.L. SOLDIER
 CAUGHT HERE
Anthony Coviello to Be Surrendered 10 Military
 Authorities

Like the Northwest Mounted Po- lice Lieutenant Ernest Pakul and Pa trolman Joseph Cavanaugh always get their man.
 Last night the two officers ar- rested Anthony Coviello, 28 of 486 Walnut street extension on charge of operating a motor vehicle with out license. Lieutenant Pakul suf- fered sprained right wrist while chasing Coviello through the woods near Lakewood Park.
 Today in municipal court 1t de- veloped that Coviello is absent without leave from Camp Claiborne, Louisiana. Judge John L. Gaffney continued the case one day and instructed Lieutenant Joseph Bend Ter to notify officials of Bradley Field, Windsor Locks to come after | Coviello.
 The story started two weeks ago when Lieutenant Pakul saw Coviello driving car in front of his house and asked him for his license. T haven't 1t with me - it's in the house." said Coviello. Wait a minute and I'll go after it."
 The officer waited in his car and waited and waited. And when he went into the house after Coviello he learned that the man had gone out the back door.
 Last night Lieutenant Pakul and Officer Cavanaugh spotted Coviello driving near Lakewood with a girl. When they ordered him to halt he complied with the order.
 But when he stopped he jumped out of the car and ran into the woods, leaving the girl alone in the car.
 The two officers gave chase through the woods and tn spite of Lieutenant Pakul's 'sprained wrist and the torn clothing of both off cers they caught up with Coviello and took him into custody.
 Lieutenant Pakul will have t chance to let the injured wrist heal. He starts his vacation Satur- day.
 Ccyiello, member of an engi- neers outfit, said he has been ab- sent without leave for a month.
 T really want to go back" hs said.

"It's nearly lunch time," McInnis
remarked. Shouldn't the kids be

Lee smiled.

The men turned to the deserted

gin rickeys. While the native bar
tender mixed them nearby, Curt
made conversation.

before them, then left to lend hand

Alone now, and with a furtive
glance to be sure Lee was occupied
with the children, Curt pulled forth
Fora Mitchell's letter. He spread 1t
open before the other, and his face
was serious, his voice low.

McInnis read the note, refolded
it, slid it back to Curt. He frowned.
He took long pull at his drink.

"Well, Curt" his friend said final

paused.

It came out slowly and in pieces.
swell, Curt, I can't help feeling
there's something fishy about your
new outfit. They have more men
on their payroll than we have, for
instance, Americans as well as ma
tives, trying to get things set be-
fore the next rainy season. That's
all right. But Soledad's the only
live spot-such as it is-within their
range. You couldn't call Cabeza a
satisfactory place to liven fellow
up over a holiday.
"So-well, damn it all, you'd ex-
pect that gang to come to Soledad
once in while. But no one ever
does. The two Swedes and the
Dutchman I told you about are the
only ones who ever get to Soledad,
and that's only on business, to super
wise receipt of shipments.
"And they don't talk! We tried to
get up a ball game with your people
once. No 60. It's as though this
Montaya was afraid his mend spill

that's carrying the rivalry theme a

country. I-well, you see how vague
it is, only feeling :"
Curt reflected. He pushed his
glass around in circles on the bar.
"Ever get over to the new plant
ing yourself?'
"No," grinned McInnis. "That
wouldn't be etiquette. The Old Man
paid them a courtesy visit once,
but we're rival outfits. If I went
over they'd think it shopping. AL
the dope I've had on them is picked
up from natives. You know how

tires or faulty mechanical condition,
cannot be operated safely even at
40 miles an hour, according to the
