ADDITIONAL $l5O
 BILL PROTESTED
School Board Passes Mo- tion Over Objection of
 Commissioner Kearney

Over objection by Commissioner John J. Kearney, the board of edu- cation last night voted payment of an additional $50 to the Moran Construction Company for extra work on the parapet walls at Wilby High school.
 The payment was recommended by the schoolhouse committee, but MT. Kearney, 8 member of that committee, refused to sign the re- port.
 "Moran took the job with the understanding that there would be no extras, said MT. Kearney. "He always is the low bidder and often puts in claims for extras"
 Chairman Raymond Stone said that after the work had been start ed 1t was found that repairs not provided in the specifications had to be made. The Moran bid, he said, was $ll ,97O for the project, and even with the addition of the $150 It was still $l 500 lower than that of the nearest bidder.
 IQEs 1ACd441CJ 4CAuoCA " w S1N0~Np saying: Every time Moran takes a job he charges extras"
 Commissioner Harry J. Parkinson objected to the type of authoriza- ton given the bill, and inquired where permission for the work re- quiring extra payment originated. He called the matter 8 case "of bringing in the bill after the job is done" He declined to cast vote on the question of payment of the $l5o.
 Later in the evening Commission CT Joseph DeLuca brought up the matter again making motion that in the future all of the school conl- mittee be called for 8 conference be- fore any additional work is author ized. He withdrew the motion when 1t was pointed out that is the usual procedure but in emergencies and also in minor matters such action would be hindrance.

 DOCTORS IN ARMY
Medical Personnel PrOb- lems Now Being Studied
 as Result of War

New Haven, Aug. EConnecticut is one of five states whose medical personnel problems as result of the war are now being studied by the National Procurement and As- signment Service, 1t was announced today by pr. Creighton Barker, ex- ecutive secretary of the Conn. State Medical society.
 M. Allen Pond has arrived in Connecticut to make the study here, detailed by the Procurement and Assignment Service headquarters in Washington. He is a former as- sistant professor of public health at the Yale School of Medicine and is working in close cooperation with Dr. Barker, who Is state chairman of the Procurement and Assignment Service.
 "On the basis of the study in Connecticut and those being con- ducted in other states" said Dr.. Barker, through the War Man. power Commissions Committee on Allocation of Medical Personnel, the Procurement and Assignment Serv- ice will see to 1t that essential ci- vilian medical needs are met while sufficient doctors are provided to the armed forces.
 'aConnecticut has been selected as a locale for research since 1t Is a typical Northeastern state with large war industries, some rural areas and urban centerS. In addi- ton, it Is located adjacent to New York city and present important problems in adequate medical care. '
 MT. Pond, in addition to working at state headquarters of the Conn Procurement and Assignment Serv- ice in New Haven, has obtained data from the State Department Of Health and will visit county medi- cal men who are county chairmen of the Procurement and Assignment Service.
 Latest figures on Connnecticut doctors in the armed forces, accord ing to the Procurement and As signment Service, show thaC SoV physicians are now serving with the various services.
 Other states being studied are Maryland, Tennessee and Ohio. An other state will be selected for study in the near future. Information IS being collected on how doctors are certified for duty with the armed forces and an evaluation VIII DC made of the probable results.

before sending them to Washington. Experience has shown that applica- tions reviewed by the field ofices are more likely to be in proper form and therefore can be given more prompt consideration than those which are not.
 "The WIPE field offlces are staffed with trained men anxious to serve manufacturers by seeing that their applications are filled out correctly. The necessary forms, which have been revised and simplifed, are available at all WIPE offices for those manufacturers who have not already received them direct from Washington. All manufacturers who use more than $5,OOO worth of metal in quarter are required to file un- der the Production Requirements Plan, and those who use lesser quan- tites may file.
 "The reason for filing applications now for the quarter beginning Oc- tober is to give sufficient time for all applications to be analysed by the Census Bureau, in order that the materials branches of the WIPE may have accurate overall informa- tion of supplies and requirements to work on in determining preference ratings. This analysis will be an- other step toward more closely con- trolled production.

Republican aldermen paa@ Co Sns new their campaign fer pay fns creases for city employees, at Was made clear at last nights meeting of the board of aldermen. They will seek to have raises made eRec- tive after Sept. 1 of this year and for all of next year.
 Alderman George L. Kingston (RJ proposed that the board of finance make a report to the aldermen on the funds available from other items to go toward payment of @ pay raise to city employees.

STATE

Ending tonight at the air condi- toned State theater is "The Mayor of 44th Street" starring George Murphy and Anne Shirley and fea- turing Freddy Martin and his or chestra; also Joan Bennett and Franchot Tone in '"The Wife Takes a Flyer"
 Another outstanding Warner Brothers production will headline the double hit show opening tomor- row at the State with the presen- tation of the highly dramatic film, '"The Gay Sister," featuring bril- liant cast made up of Barbara Stan- wyck, George Brent, Geraldine Fitz- gerald, Nancy Coleman and 8 fine newcomer for whom film critics and preview audiences alike predict a bright future, Gig Young.
 Three wealthy sisters who live in spacious home that is daily seep- ing into greater stage of decay, and who are obviously trying to keep dark some closely guarded se- cret of the past, is the intriguing story of the new film.
 The story Is adapted from the best selling novel by Stephen Longstreet, whose powerful writing was trans planted in all its strength from print to film. The three Gaylord sis- ters (nicknamed the "gay sister" by the press) Fiona, Lady Burton and Susanna, played respectively by Barbara Stanwyck, Geraldine F1tz- gerald and Nancy Coleman, are theoretically worth a fortune but are actually up to their necks i'll debt. This situation is due to the fact that one Charles Barclay, played by George Brent, has contested theiI fathers will and has managed tc keep the case in various courts fol over twenty years in the hope that the Gaylords would be forced tc sell him their property.
 But Fiona, who had it instilled t1 her from childhood that a Gaylord never sells the land, has another more personal reason for refusing to give in to Charles Barclay. It is her secret relationship to Barclay that surrounds the Gaylord family with aura of mysticism until the day the entire, thrilling story is ex- ploded in one mighty blast.
 The brilliant supporting cast is made up of such popular players as Donald Crisp, Gene Lockhart, Larry Simms and Donald Woods.
 And for your further enjoyment the management presents Spy Ship" a picture as timely as to- days headlines, featuring Craig Wood and Irene Manning.
 The picture is as exciting as a time bomb and deals with fifth cN : umn sabotage in the United States.
