 MT. Clark, president of the Ann erican Screw Co.,, has bought a permanent home in Willimantic and will move into Connecticut in the not too distant future.

As Representative from our Eastern Connecticut area she interested herself in the fate of the Pratt Wright wartime aircraft plant when the Willimantic property was turned over to the War Assets Commission for sale under the Sur plus Property Act. Mrs. Wode- house openly opposed the sale of the property to an electrical manu- featuring concern whose bad labor practice record was offensive in the extreme. She pointed out that in Eastern Connecticut our labor record except for minor strike of the dye workers had been excep- tionally clean and that it would be wrong to accept bid that would allow a company so well-known for it's lnfractionary acts into our section. Through Congressman Woodhouse's interceSSion the Ann erican Screw Company attained this property.

Park Pavilion Sets Record Patrons Loud
 Local Talent

A record opening night crowd of more than 1900 dance and music lovers turned out Sunday night for the gala Fall opening of Hamilton Park pavilion'S Fist dance season The turnout exceeded the fondest expectations of Park Department officials and was indeed a tribute to Francis Delfino and his great orchestra of q musicians who turned in performance on a par with that of many name" bands.
 Several times during the early evening, traffic on streets leading to the park was jammed but extra police kept the situation well in hand. Supt. of Parks James J. Cur tin said that the attendance indi- cated that the public appreciates good dance music and that his de- partment would maintain the same standard of supervision for every Sunday night event as it has in the past.
 Patrons, including hundreds from surrounding towns as indicated by the number of out-of town cars, were loud in their praise of the splendid orchestra of q people which MT. Delfino has assembled for the new season. The new Del fino vocal trio comprised of Miss Blythe Sacco, Monroe Spier and Vincent Manzolli scored with the crowd as did Ted Mendel and his accordion: the Brass Choir, the Dancing Strings and the swing trio
