Socialists Seek Change In Policies
 Progressive
 Measures Needed
 In Present Age

"A forward, progressive change is necessary during the atomic age if we are to keep pace with the world" Atty. Frederic Smedley, Socialist candidate for the U. S Senate told a gathering at the Y.M.C.A. last night.
 Speaking at an organizational meeting held for the general pub- lie, MT. Smedley charged leaders of the Democratic and Republican parties with attempting to main tain the status quo" and failing to pay heed to the significant changes of today.
 Speaking of more rapid social changes the Socialist candidate said I've do not become revolutionists by meeting these demands but rath- CT we become evolutionists."
 John w. Ring, Socialist candi- date for State Senator, presided at last nights meeting. Samuel Vol ozin, chairman of the local party, said that plans had been made for expansion of the membership and urged voters of other parties to join the Socialist ticket instead.
 Some political observers see & possible trend toward a heavier vote for the Socialist Party this year in Waterbury and throughout the State.

Charles E. OLeary, now assistant pastor of St. Aedan's Church, New Haven.
 Father OLeary is a brother of Rev. Donald OLeary, of the Church of the Immaculate Conception, this city.
 Father Kane, who has been pas tor of St. Mary's Church for 12 years, returns to the city where he spent the IT years of lhis only curacy. He left Danbury for Clin- ton in 1884, where he also served the mission of St. Margaret's par ish in Madison.
 During his term in the two par ishes. they have grown extensively and St. Margarets Church was erected and dedicated in 1888. four years after his coming. In addi- ton to his many priestly duties in the two parishes, Father Kane was also active in civic affairs, includ- ing membership on the School Board of Clinton, and vice-presi- dency of the Red Cross.
 Originally from Bristol, Father Kane a graduate of Holy Cross. and studied for the priesthood at St. Thomas Seminary and at St. Bernards in Rochester. He was ordained in Hartford by the Most Reverend Bishop John J Nolan December 23, 1917, and six days later he was assigned to St. Peters Tn Danbury as assistant.

 Speaking of dough Ca pleasant pastime despite the fact that we never have any on the wages you pay), are we correct in concluding that Ann Nichols, with total take exceeding ten millions from her play, "Abie's Irish Rose" now holds the record for authors earnings?

It will be Bill Tracy in the Hot Shot Charlie" role when Terry and the Pirates" goes before the cameras.
 Boss, in the future when you iibe at the inability of Hollywood pro- ducerS and agents to recognize tal- ent when they see it, please list ani- mailman Henry East as an excep- tion. Just about year ago, he saw a six-months-old kitten on top a telephone pole. He rescued it, named it Bessie, and added it to his collection of four-footed actors Bessie has worked in 25 pictures, at $25 day, and mothered 12 kittens six of which are now working regu- larly!. Desi Arnaz and his Band will be featured in Bop Hopes next picture, '"The Private Eye" Rich ard Ney is back from Monterey with hair-fifting experience to re- member. Seems he got a hand caught under an abalone shell while paddle-board fishing and was held under water so firmly that it cost him 8 fingernail to pull free. Odd- ly enough the incident occurred only few miles from the spot where his mssus, Greer Carson, was nearly drowned a few months ago.
 Audrey Long, bothered by a peep ing Tom three times in the past week was presented with six-gun by police the other day and sleeps with it under her pillow. And now, boss, brace yourself. We hear the sirens approaching.

 Our committee feels this is a problem of serious proportions and that 1t is growing progressively worse" Randolph said in an inter view after a consultation with Pres ident Truman. These groups are trying to infiltrate wherever the in- formation is."
 Randolph, who has never been considered "red batter" stressed repeatedly that he was not calling for 8 witch hunt" that his charges were based on study made by his committee prior to congressional adjournment.
 Says Groups WeE. Organized
 T do not like to be an alarmist but these groups are well-organized and cleverly handled and the gov- ernment is without adequate protec- tion," he said
 Jennings said President Truman promised to give immediate atten- tion" to committee proposals that an interdepartmental committee be set up to study the problem. This committee would include represent ativeS from the Justice, War, Navy. State and Treasury departments and from the Civil Service Commis- Sion
 These agencies all have investi- gative staffs and should be able to work out some method of giving the government ad equate protection against subversive employees who have a loyalty to governments other than theis own," he said.
 These groups to which I am re- ferring feel they owe a loyalty to other governments. And naturally. since they are attempting to get in

 There was galaxy of stars in the lineup, and if I say so myself we have some wonderful baseball talent over at Paramount. Peter Lorre played Shortstop, Crosby second bag, and, as an example of bad casting, Ray Midland was wa terboy. There were the usual fights with the umpire !. it seems the stars all wanted top billing on the scoreboard.

 Of course, the game is played differently here in Hollywood. Out here a pinch-hitter is known as an understudy, a guy on the bench is an extra, when someone strikes out, we say he made a bad take, and we always refer to the umpire is director" Why they call me butterfingers," I'll never know.

HOLLYWOOD, Sept. 19-DEAR STAFF: When one of my neighbors decided to take his pet pooch to dog and cat hospital for distemper shots the other evening, I went with him and watched the proceed ingS And while Fido was getting the needle, I got an idea that is hereby offered, gratis, to Hollywood studio czars.
 Why don't they employ few sci- entists and develop serum to com bat the fearful ravages of stellar temperament?
 According to my layman's under standing of the matter, most ser- ums are made by using the blood of previous victims as base. If that's true, shortage of raw material needn't be contemplated here in Hollywood. Without bothering Gar bo, who doesn't look to me like she has any blood to spare, laboratory workers could tap enough sufferers from temperament to collect bar relS of the stuff, and the supply could be maintained from that point on by the simple expedient of W1p1ng up the gore on our night club floors.
 There's no need to be content with halfway measures such as are used, for instance, in the prepara- tions of snake-bite serums. There, if you want complete protection, you have to have three different kinds-one for the bite of pit vip- CTS, another for the poison of the cobra tribe and still a third for a group of intermediary reptiles that pack both neurotoxic and haemo- toxic venom. What I propose is a real cure-all. An injection, say, composed of 10 percent Fontaine, 20 percent Hepburn, 30 percent Lake and the balance Bennett. A neophyte, given a big dose of that at the start of his or her career, should be chemically sealed for years to come against all the vari- ous types of temperament known to show business
