Graduation Exercises VIII Be Held On futile Lawn
New Housing May Cause
Opening OF One School
Beebe Street School May Be ReOpened to Accom-
mOdate Children in That Locality

to accommodate children from that
area, the superintendent said. This
school was used as a headquarters
for the draft board after 1t was
closed several years ago.
Enrolment In Salem, Central
avenue, Rubber avenue and Grove
side schools Is high now, Mr.. Chit
tenden said. He expects the apart
ment project will be completed next
fall so that the board will have to
deal with the problem Of children
from there in the next school year
He was indefinite as to when the
problem at the other housing pro-
ject will become formidable.
Millville, Beebe street and Pond
Hill schools were closed at about
the same time in a Capitalization
move and this year the Tuttle school
which had accommodated high
school freshmen, was closed for
school purposes, other than hous-
ing the Superintendent's offices. The
draft and several OPA boards oc-
cupy this school now.

Naugatuck, May 12-The board Of
education, at their meeting Thurs
day afternoon, decided to hold
grammar school and high school
graduations under tent which will
accommodate 1900 persons on the
futile school lawn June 18th and
10th respectively. This will be the
first time in many years that the
high school exercises have not been
held in the Gem theater.
The tent which the committee
for observance of the Tooth ami
versary Of the borough Is providing
can hold more than double the
number Of persons the Gem could
hold, School Supt Harold E. Chit
tenden said.
The board allocated 5000 bonuses
to teachers and other members OF
the professional staff Of the depart
Inent and 10 per cent increases to
other employees Of the department.
DR.. Edwin r. Curran moved for
approval Of these and no opposition
was expressed.
The anniversary committee will
arrange for O stage, seats, lighting
and broadcasting devices for the
tent. The $500 appropriated by the
town for expenses Of this observ-
ance, which is sponsored by the
Naugatuck Chamber Of Commerce,
will be far from adequate, Mr.. Chit
tenden said. The school board
members agreed to give to the COM
mittee q sum equivalent to the
school departments annual expense
in connection with graduation exer-
cises. The exact amount was not
specified.
Mr.. Chittenden said it will be
necessary for the anniversary COM
mittee to raise money outside to de-
fray expenses. The tent will be 10
Gated Just south Of the futile
school.
II the weather is suitable the
Naugatuck high school senior class
day exercises will be held on the
morning Of June /. If not, they
will take place June 2. Public
schools viii close June 16.
One hundred and thirty-two SEN
Tors are expected to be graduated
and the maximum entering class Of
freshmen for the next school year
will be 200. There are GIT enrolled
in the high school now as compared
TO 500 in April Of last year. Mr..

fate, that has brought them to-
gether
1t was rather cunning of the
authors of the script, which was di-
rected by Jean Negulesco, to have
their hero WOO the wife of the chief
German agent engaged in hunting
him to earth but the stress laid upon
its novelty has a tendency to back
fire. Instead of being exciting, it is
often exasperating to see the pair
engaged in idyllic romancing when
they might be getting on to some
thing really involving action.
There is some neat minor char
acterization in THE Consiprators"
that helps it over some of the
sluggish spots in its direction. 1t
is evident in the performance of
Victor Francen as the urbane Nazi
agent whose wife has fallen for
the underground man, in that of
corpulent Sidney Greenstreet as a
Dutch author who has suddenly
devoted his great fair for the
melodramatic into foiling the
Nazis, and in Peter Lorre's repeti-
tiouS picture of a smooth little
man who makes up for his lack of
stature by being veritable demon
in cunning
A little bit more inspiration on
the part of their writer's, and all
of them would have looked much
better in The Conspirators."

like excitement in anticipation of
perhaps half a dozen Lisbon spy
stories out of Hollywood. In some
respect or another they have always
let us down, even now that we have
grown to feel that the Estoril and
the Cafe Imperio are places we
know as we'll as the Embassy Room
or the May1ower Lounge.
No exception to this rather I'M
happy rule is THE Conspirators,"
which appeared yesterday at the
Earle with Paul Henreid and Hedy
Lamar. 1t is cast with all the flair
that Warner Bros. mas developed
for that sort of thing. 1t is written
considerably more literately than
most of such narratives. 1t has the
urbanity and wit which one likes
to feel are natural with diplomatic
agents who sometimes are forced to
resort to expedient murder. These
are advantages which THE Con-
spirators" has over many other
pictures of the same type, but it
still does not give us properly ex-
cited feeling that Lisbon is COM
pletely a city of echoes (gunshots)
and shadows (the ghosts OF dead
spies.
1t is entirely within the realm
of reason that it is impossible at
this point in human history to make
one underground picture that does
not look entirely like too many
others. The demands of morale and
patriotism require that the actress
and actor with top billing in such a
cast shall emerge triumphant in the
fadeout, a circumstance that modi-
fies the amount of suspense the
spectator legitimately may feel now
that the script writer's have repeated
the trick so often. Moreover, the
performers are beginning to act as if

they knew audiences knew - the
smart alecks-the difference between
a hero and villain.
A vicious circle patiently is what
underground pictures are in.

There are evidences in the Earle's
picture that it has aimed at the old
high standard of Alfred Hitchcock.
1t was one of his happy practices to
see that his dialogue was slick and
sophisticated Another was to make
his heroes roguish and witty fellows
who committed murder only with
the highest of motives and with the
utmost of grace. These qualities are
apparent in The Conspirators, but
not quite as they were in Hitchcocks
old pre-eminent day in interna-
tional melodrama.
The desperate, generally debonair
pair about whom Vladimir. Pozner
and Leo Rosten suspended their
story are a former Dutch school
teacher (Henreid) and a beautiful
French girl who has escaped from
concentration camp by the artifice
of marrying a German diplomat
now assigned to Lisbon. They meet
through zany circumstances in the
Cafe Imperio. Each is instantly
suspicious of the other, as people
have to be in Lisbon or Lisbon pic
lures. Each, however, is more deep
ly affected by a vague disquiet that
1t is not chance, but meaningful
