 Yesterday Stimulates
 Business

Waterburys first air mail flight was a success, Postmaster Charles A. Babin stated today. Over 5000 letters were stamped with the spe- cial cachet and sent to New Haven by Civil Air Patrol planes promptly at 2 P. M. as scheduled.
 Letters stamped by collectors have already been received at the local Post Office and will be de- liVered today. An unexpected added feature was added to each letter. the postmaster disclosed. The letters were stamped with the special ca- chet used by the New Haven Post Office marking the 10th Anniver- sary of Air Mail in New England
 These cachets and a New Haven post mark cancellation were placed on the backs of the envelopes.
 Final plans for handling air mail through New Haven have not been completed When the New Haven planes schedule becomes available. air mail will be sent there the post master explained He stated that all air mail will probably not be sent through that city.
 At present aid mail is handled through Hartford. LaGuardia Field in New York and Newark Airport. The mail is sent to one of these three fields depending on the rail transportation scheduled. It is sent on the first train to make connec- tons at one of these airports for the least delay in being sent. Mail to New Haven will be an added fac tor in making certain that air mail IS handled with the greatest dis patch.
 Use of air mail is increasing con- Stantly Babin stated. Business firms Especially are making more use of it every day because of the great speed obtained especially on long runs. AS an example, Babin said that letters mailed here in the afternoon are delivered in Chicago the following morning.
 Poor flying weather caused the cancellation of the scheduled flights over the city by Civil Air Patrol planes. The planes were to have demonstrated various flight forma- ton used by the Army Air Force in tribute to Army Air Force Day.
 Because the light c. A. P. planes could not fly, the flowers honoring the war dead they were scheduled to drop in the Naugatuck River were handled in a plane loaned by Sportair Corporation Robert Hetz- el of Naugatuck, the pilot, was ac- companied on the flight by Capt. Gerald Monaghan and Cpl. Nathan Rowley of the c. A. P. Two hun- dred roses were scattered on the river

MILWAUKEE,
Lincoln Loses To Ra1mbIeFS
I'm Last Ten Seconds

MILWAUKEE, - Coach Jim
Fallon's Lincoln high school elev-
en- lost its first game of the sea-
son last week in the last ten sec
onds of the game. A 40 yard
touchdown pass cracked up a TT
tie and gave the Pulaski Ramblers
a IA to 7 victory before a crowd
Of more than 5000, second larg-
est gate Of the season at South
stadium.
Led by Jake Beason, big Negro
fullback, the Lincoln Comets had
started off on a successful foot
ball season in the city conference.
The team opened its season with
a z to 6 win over Racine Park
high and followed up with 8 to
0 triumph over Bay View with
Beason in the starring role, scor-
ing the lone touchdown.
Ironically enough it was Beason
who made the tumble as Lincoln
was attacking in midfield with lit
tie more than a minute left in the
game that was pounced upon by
Pulaski, which went on to win the
game.
Besides Beason, Ken Vernon,
guard; Fred Bland, end; Otto
Order, fullback; Hobart Abbott,
end; Cecil Hutchins, quarterback
Bill Boyers, guard; Gerald Mack
and Andrew Douglas, halfbacks,
are members Of the Lincoln squad.
