 MAY SET RECORD

 Higher Court

Litigation over a $25 blanket has been carried from the Cheshire town court to the common pleas court here, according to appeal papers filed today by Zembruski Cleaners and Dyers of Union Citys defendant in the suit originally instituted by Helen A. Breuger of Cheshire.
 The woman on July 2, won a S25 judgment from Justice of the Peace LeRoy H. Carpenteri, who heard the case at the Cheshire TowrS Hall. In his decision he pointed out the plaintiff testified, but that the defendant gave no testimony, indi- eating an appeal would be instituted in another court.
 The plaintiff claimed she deliver ed two blankets to the defendant concern for cleaning, and that only one of them was returned. She testi- fled a second blanket was given to her but it was not hers. In special defense the defendant claimed the blanket was returned to the wo- man last April IS.
 Damages of SIS were sought by the woman. The town court in ad- dition to the $25 judgment ordered the defendant to pay court costs of &6.12.

Funds Made Available
 For Repair Of Bridges
Finance Board Approves Recommendation; Special
 Fund Proposed for Police Bail Money

Tabllng of a request for transfer of ei7000 from the street depart mens's salary appropriation to that for repaid of bridges was effected yesterday by the finance board on the basis that it would mean extra neous costs to replace the present wooden flooring of the Washington avenue bridge with steel grid floor- ing In view of the fact that the enc tire bridge might be rebuilt within a few years.
 Superintendent Scott-smith point- cd out however, that any steel-grsd material used in the bridge con- struction could be removed and utilized elsewhere in the event the entire bridge was rebuilt or could be replaced on the same bridge. He pointed out that wooden flooring material for such use was now al- most impossible to obtain
 It is believed that the board may approve the transfer at the next meeting.
 City Clerk Joseph Shea yesterday requested of the finance board the authorization to create a special fund for deposit and withdrawal purposes of that bail money put up by police prisonlers of the local de- pertinent.
 Up to the present, Mir. Shea has received such cash from the deparo- ment and retained it until authoriz- ed to return it. It has been drawn to his attention by the city audi tors that the charter specified that a special fund should be created for deposit of this money, and that the money should be refunded by check from this account.

|Atchison Children
 May Resume Contest
Counsel May Seek New Trial in Superior Courts
 Supreme Court Decision Being Studied

Efforts of the Atchlson children to break their fathers will and gain his e2D,OO0 estate have not ended, des. pite last Wednesdays Supreme Court decision which upheld the will, it was indicated today.
 Attorney Harry Albert, one of the counsel for Margaret and Alden Ate ehison, stated today that the high courts decision in effect brings the case back for possible new trial before a jury in superior court, and that further legal action is now be- ing contemplated.
 The lawyer stated that the Hart ford court in upholdlng the judg- ment of Judge Frank P. McEvoy, who set aside Q jury verdict re- turned in the childrens favor, brought the issues back again to thc jurisdiction of the lower court, where @ new trial may be sought.
 1t was indicated by the counsel that the long drawn-out contest is noto over, and that further legal steps may result in the near future in the trial court.
 The two children, together with another brother, Lawrence, were left elOO each. A $500 bequest was made to George K. Cashman, close friends of their father, while the bulk of the estate was willed to Ed- win Atchlson, their uncle.
 After hearing the issues in the children's appeal from probate in five-week trial. a superior court jury on April 8, l043 found the Issues in favor of the children. On last No- vember 6, however, Judge McEvoy set aside the verdict on the ground the jury was carried away by syrn- pathy and prejudice for the chil- dren. The pair then took their ape peal to the high court in Hartford.
 The Hartford iiidiciarv ruled the

evidence in the trial court was overwhelmingly" against the con- clusion expressed by the Jury In its verdict, and found there was no er- TOT in Judge McEvoy's iudgmens setting aside the verdict.
 The father. Lawrence Atchison Of Middlebury, made his last will short ly before he died, October l2, l942. His wife had obtained Q divorce from him in lo35 on Q cross-con. plaint, and was awarded custody lot the children. The appellants in the will litigation claimed their father was prejudiced against them and was suffering from insane delusions when his last will was made.

LOVES OLD STORY

The evening and the interests
Of the two lonely young people
develops so that they spend the
weekend together. weekend OF
such warmth and laughter and
love that you really envy them
You needn't feel in the least
cheated by seeing this company
rather than the Broadway origi-
nal. because Miss X. T, Stevens
and Mr.. Hugh Marlowe are even
more convincing as the lovers.
Miss Stevens. who is. indeed. a
very gifted young actress. has a
charm and breathleSs youth about
her which makes every move,
each infection, compelling. In
some instances. as in the counter
pane business. she has reSorted 10
employing some of Margaret Sui
lavan's tricks, which in Miss
Stevens case. are absolutely UNI
necessary. She's really young and
doesn't have 10 be coy about IT,.
Outside of that her performance
is a remarkable one.
4 FINE ACTOR
Marlowe. a sensitive and fine
actor, is every bit as good at Nu-
gent, except for his posture, which
isn't quite military. He handles
every scene. though with such
ease and confidence that we must
applaud his aplomb.
Betty Lawford, who plays the
disillusioned actress. disappointed
