Nip Mayfair
Get Is Hits
to Win, 81

Mayfair's hold on the fourth
place in the Junior league slip
ped last night as Nesbitt's
Orange knocked out Is hits to
down the Noveltymen 8 to 7.
The game was tightly played
throughout and the Orangemen
had to come from behind to
hand the Mayfair batters their
fifth defeat.
Mayfair jumped the gun by
scoring in the first frame when
Korte walked, stole second and
went home on an error by the
catcher.
Nesbitt's tied up the score in
the second stanza, however. on
hits by Pingel and Lick with
the latter stealing second and
coming home on q double by
Champine.
Mayfair bounced back in the
first of the third by crossing the
plate four times to get four
run advantage. The runs were
made possible on four free
passes drawn by Shastachuk,
Darling, Burback, and Smith and
hits by korte, and Elso.
The Orangemen lived up to
their reputation of being pow
erful hitting team by smashing
out triple, two doubles and two
singles, to score four runs in the
third and again tie up the score.
The hits were made by Lick,
Rhodes, a Montague, Jones and
De Smith.
In an effort to build up a lead
the Mayfair men nicked the
place two more times in the four
but were made unable to main
tain their lead when Nesbitt's
crossed the plate once in the
fifth and twice in the sixth to
forge ahead.
Mayfair sought TO tieup the
score in the seventh but Elso, the
first man up who reached first
on a hit was stranded when his
teammates were put down in
swift order.
Robert Naessen, second sacker
for the Orangemen highlighted
the fielding exhibition. In the
third frame with the bases load
ed Jim latham lined hard
drive between first and second
for what looked like sure hit.
Naessen- however made a dar-
ing attempt for the pill, snagged
it, looked like he was going to
drop it and fell flat on his face
with the ball in his glove for
a putout.
Rhodes, Nesbitt hurler gave up
only five hits but walked 10
men to keep him in constant
trouble. Burback gave up Is
hits to the Orangemen but with
the exception of the third in
ming kept them well scattered.
La Montague of the Orange
men who blasted out two dou-
bles and a single had perfect
day at bat DeSmith and Lick
were each credited with two hits
in three tries to win runnerup
honors.

care in proceeding along the side walk.
 Also entered on the jury assign ment list for Tuesday is the $20,000 civil action brought by Irene Mur- te1a and her mother, Hanch Mur- teza, both of Waterbury, against Ed ward F. Grady, doing business as the Yellow Cab Co. A fall from & taxicab Feb. II, 1914, is the basis of the litigation.
 The complaint points out that FL eas Murteza, father of Irene, hired cab to take himself, his wife, Irene, and three other children from 318 Hamilton avenue to 335 Bank street. Aafter the cab started off, allegedly at excessive speed, Irene, who was four years old, leaned against the rear door and fell out, and her mother fell after her, according to the writ.
 It is claimed the lock was not latched in the door jamb. A head injury is listed for the child, and the mother claims she injured her back and left leg.
 The defendant claims the mother was negligent in permitting the child to stand in the cab, and it is alleged she failed to exercise reasonable su- pervision. She failed to place the girl in sitting position or in her lap, according to the defendants pleading, and as the child fell she dove after her and fell out herself.

JewryAwoits  OfChonuko
 Coinmemoration
 Ceremonies to Be Held

This year the festival of Chanuko Dedication DayS) falls on Thurs cay evening at sundown, Nov. 29th. The festival is celebrated with light ing of lights from Nov. 29th thruogh Dec. 9th, in commemoration of the rededication of the Temple at Jeru- salem by the victorious Maccabees, 1e5 B.C.E.
 The Maccabean struggle was against the Syrian Greek King An- tiochus who, with the aid of the Quislings of those days, tried to de- stroy the Jewish religion and the worship of one God. So important was this struggle that ethical Mono theism owes its existence to this historic event. The festival is one of the most beautiful and most sig njficant of festivals of any faith. Without this victory neither Mo- hammedaniSm, Judaism or Christi anity could have survived. In rec cgnition of this fact the Catholic Church celebrated Judas Macca- beus day on August the tenth for several centuries during the Chris tian Era.
 Chanuko is mainly home festi- val. Services are held in the syna- gogues and religious schools. There is the exchange of gifts, and chil- dren are presented with a Chanuko Menorah or eight-branched candle stick so that they may light one candle each night until there are eight to recall the eight days of rededication of the Temple.

City Defendant h $1O,OOO Ciuil Suit
 Task of Impaneling Jury 10 Hear Evidence
 Starts Tuesday Morning

Tmpaneling of jury for the $10,- 900 sidewalk fall suit of Edward Thompson of Waterbury has been scheduled for Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock in superior court before Judge James E. Murphy. Defend- ants in the litigation are the City of Waterbury, and Nellie and Thomas Fitzgerald of Waterbury who were cited as co-defendants at the request of the city.
 The plaintiff claims he fell in front of property at 173-175 Ham1l- ton avenue at 11:45 p. n1., May S, 1o4O, after he left a restaurant at 173 Hamilton avenue owend by Mrs. Fitzgerald and operated by Thomas Fitzgerald.
 It is alleged the store building was so constructed that it extended be- yond the building line, and that the sidewalk in front was only two and a half feet wide.
 The city is charged with negli- gence for permitting the property to encroach upon the walk, and for failing to give protection from the condition. The city also is charged with maintaining nuisance by al- lowing the condition to exist.
 A fracture of the right leg IS listed by the plaintiff, who states he remained in hospital until July IT, 1e4O, and lost wages as 8 plumbers helper.
 In their special defense the Fitz- geralds point out the building was erected many years before they pur- chased it in 1918, and they state the walk was about six feet wide until the city changed the curbing in 1889. They deny that the build ing was an obstruction on the side walk.
 The city in it's defense claims the plaintiff was guilty of negligence in that he failed to use reasonable

 operations because they have no backlog of parts.
 Meanwhile, the JAWS wage ne- gotiations with the Ford Motor Company were watched with inter- est for any bearing they might have on the General Motors strike There has been talk of Ford and the ChrySler Corporation halting pro- duction in sympathy move that would upset the JAWS strategy, but there has been no indication that Ford would take part in such action.
 Formula Expected
 On the other hand, if Ford and the JAW reaches a satisfactory agreement, it might be used as 8 compromise formula.
 Ford has indicated in its negotia- tions that 1t was anxious to meet the union half way. Yesterday, the Ford management asked the union to assume financial responsibility for work stoppages.
 Walter Reuther, JAW vice-presi- dent, was asked in Mutual Broadcasting System radio interview last night if he believed unions should be penalized for striking in plants while under contract. He re- piled that there were now union penalties for wildcat strikes, but did not elaborate Reuther said he believed the prin- ciple of opening up the books Of both company and the union in ne- gotiations should be applied to all wage disputes.
 Hope to Make Up Gap
 He said the JAW struck before General Motors had swung into full production because "the nation faces a loss of 3O,OOO,OOO,OOO a year in purchasing power" in the differ ence between wartime and peace time wages.
 "The loss in General Motors alnoe would be 60,000,000 a year between the wartime and peacetime pay checks" he said.
 While the union officials prepared | for board meeting to discuss the strike, the rank and file members stuck to the picket lines. Bitter cold weather in some sections of the country reduced the size of the picket lines, but union headquarters said every striker would be expected to do duty every other day. General Motors refusal to accept the JAWS arbitration plan came as Secretary of Labor Lewis Schwellen- bach announced that he would in- vite representatives of both sides to meet conciliators from his office in Washington next week. Hope for Machinery
 Schwellenbach said he hoped that the conferences might produce the machinery for settling the strike of 175, 900 JAW members who walked out in GM plants from coast to coast Wednesday. The union seeks a 30 per cent wage increase to com- pensate the workers for the loss of overtime pay they received while on a 48-hour work-week schedule dur | ing the war.
 Immediately after Schwellenbach proposed the settlement conferences, union leaders said they were ready to go to Washington.
 The corporation withheld conl- ment pending direct word from the labor secretary. but it appeared likely that the company officials would be willing to enter the nego- tiations.
 After reviewing the strike situa- ton with President Truman yester- day afternoon. Schwellenbach said the government would try to get the disputants to Washington sometime after Wednesday morning. He said the unions executive board was meeting in Detroit Monday and Tuesday, making 1t possible for the JAW leaders Do go to Washington ] before Wednesday.

Hazards Of Winter
 Drivir1g Stressed
Traffic Safety Officer William Dwyer in Weekly Instructions Outlines Rules to Aid All Drivers

Traffic Safety Officer William DWyer in his weekly statement on traffic, points out several rules all drivers will do well to follow in this coming winter of driving.
 In his address to the motoring public of Waterbury, Officer Dwyer says:
 The next four months will be difficult ones for automobile drivers and pedestrians alike. The topog- raphy of Waterbury is of such a nature as to require the greatest skill on the part of all in keeping suggestions, while not new to us, are made with the hope that they will serve as 8 reminder of the hazards we all face during the long hours of darkness coupled with a decrease in the number of daylight hours.
 "1-Cut down the speed. Slower speeds mean Quicker Stop, espe- cially on snow, ice or any type of slippery pavement.
 "2-Adjust speed to conditions; slowing down well in advance of intersections and curves. too closely; keep back of other vehicles at a safe distance so that in event of an emergency you can stop.
 "4-Put on tire chains when roads are slippery with ice or snow. They provide go traction and reduce braking distances up to fifty per cent.
 "5-Make sure windshield wipers and defrosters are in working con- dition.
 "6-Never slam your brakes on when driving on icy roadWays ap- ply them lightly and intermittent ly.
 "7-Braking distances on ice and snow without anti-skid chains are heightened from four to eleven times.
 "8-When driving a car with smooth tires on slippery highway without chains there is no traction and you may be on your way to an exciting adventure.
 "9-You may be warm and com fortable in the car but don't over look the outside conditions.
 10-Remember pedestrians are bundled up with lot of clothes earlaps etc; and they move much faster with less caution than III the summer time.
 Lieutenant Joseph Petit in charge of highway accident statis- tics states that during the first four days of this week the accident in- vestigation squad has handled four teen highway accidents. A total or ten persons were injured nine as occupants of automobiles and one
