 Taft's parting word to Murray was:
 T shall take this matter to the Senate door!"
 Praised Editorial
 The argument started when Mur- ray, making an opening statement, placed in the record an editorial from today's Washington Post praising the proposed public health program.
 Murray lauded the editorial and said it contained good advice to people not to be making charges that this measure is communistic." :" Taft broke in.

 "Now, you keep quiet" Murray interrupted angrily.

 "That's a islander and a false hood!' Murray shouted.
 "You're very discourteous."

Meetings on Central Green To Be Barred
Board Turns
 Down Request Of Communist Party

No party or theological distinc. tions are intended in the refusal of the Park Board to permit the Water bury Communist Party to hold it's May 1 memorial rally. The Board yesterday refused the request of August Storm, Communist secretary here.
 Park Superintendent James J. Curtin yesterday reviewed the darn- age done to the Green by rallies held during the war years as cited recently in his annual report. Dur ing those years, MT. Curtin pointed out, the Green was re-seeded three times and then destroyed by such outburstS of celebrations as VIE Day V-J Day and other rallies.
 Thomas F. Moore, board secretary, read MT. Storms request to the board which then turned down the request. MT. Moore said he would in- form the Communist secretary and the reasons for refusal
 Mayor John s. Mongagan urged that the May 1 celebration be cele- brated elsewhere in the downtown area. It Is believed the board intends to prohibit any and all public cele- brations on the Green in the future.
 MT. Moore yesterday was informed that the Board of Aldermen had ratified his appointment to the Park Board for another g years.
 The board secretary also was au- thorized yesterday to advertise for bids for grading of 20 acres of land in the Fairmount section of the city for purposes of establishing six more softball diamonds.
 MT. Curtin pointed out that the city now has l2 areas available for baseball, adding that the new devel- opment will increase the available space more than 50 per cent.
 He reported that 2,025 rounds of golf have been played at the muni- cipal golf course since the season opened March 23. MT. Curtin said 1t was his opinion that the number of weekday players has been larger than usual because of the strikes in Waterbury industry.

 The office of principal is a key position in any school system" Mir. Brophy commented. Speaking of the importance of the post, he pointed out that principals put into opera ton the policies of the department and are responsible to see that they are followed.

 Judge Quinlan warned the accus- ed that next time you won't be spared"
 Prefer Prison
 The prison sentences were re- ouested by Thomas Walsh, 19, of 4d Center Street and William Novak 20, of Torrington through their counsel, Public Defender Edward T Carmody. Both youths completed previous sentences to the reforma- tory. Today they pleaded guilty te charges of breaking and entering and taking a motor vehicle without permission.

Probably the best chilli con carne
on earth is that which is poured
over lemon pudding and eaten with

No. 2 on my list is a jungle ham
mock. A jungle hammock, which
was standard equipment in the
Pacific theater, is probably the thing
which made Rube Goldberg turn to
political cartooning. One look at
its mechanism and Rube undoubt-
edly realized that there was some
one in the world who could outdo
him in thinking up gadgets. Men
with three years at M. /. T. could
sometimes put up jungle hammock
in two hours, but the average GI
with no mechanical training needed
a week or more.
Only One False Move.
But putting up jungle hammock
and getting into it was nothing
compared to trying to get out of the
fool thing. One false move in get
ting out, and a man was more
trapped than if he were in the
coils of an amorous python. I
know of one major who was trapped
in one for a week and was kept

The No. item on my surplus
shopping list is a Lyster bag. A
Lyster bag is big, canvas affair
for holding water and has spouts
at the bottom which never work.
The water from a Lyster bag is
marvellous to drink. The Army, to
purify the water, uses chemical
which gives the water taste highly
remindful of mothball cocktail.
1t is an acquired taste, but once ac-
Iquired can never be shaken. Water
that doesn't taste, and isn't soupy,
doesn't slake my thirst. So want a

out training and overseas duty, and
nearly broke down when they took
it away from me at the separation
center. 1t was a battered old num-
ber that first saw service in the

used it against the Spanish didn't

Unwritten KIP Law.
Let a man eat out of a mess kit
for two or three years and he can't
get accustomed to having his food
separated. When a KIP worth his
salt throws food in a mess kit, he
sees to it that the different items
land one on top of the other. It
is an unwritten law, upheld by the
mess sergeant, that food must not
be separated. In fact, I have seen
many proud Pfc. broken to private
because he thoughtlessly put the
pancakes on one side of the mess
kit and the prunes on another side
Army SOP calls for the prunes to
be placed directly on top of the
pancakes.
At first, the mixtures are strange

weeks man begins to appreciate
the odd combinations. They make
exotic meals, which
would appeal to gourmet. Unless

really enjoyed the true flavor either
