NEW HAVEN. Nov. 24.—Yaie and
Harvard men were out upon the roads
and streets of the city almost before
the grey light of dawn had given way

played more anxiety about breakfast

hopes, to a finish. on Yale ground this
afternoon. last night was one of the

dormitory room of some student. The

early morning weather was chilly. and
the sky overcast, but later this gave

May to a cloud flocked blue sky and a

temperature which was a blending of

October balm and a sharp November

breeze.

During the night there was consld.
arable excitement among the students.
Several automobile mix-ups occurred,
through the supposed recklessness of
their drivers but in no cases did the
police do more. than give warningc. One
ticket speculator was taken bye con-
stable before a justice of the peace.
who. upon being told the; he would be
committed to jail. turned over a large
number of tickets in his possession to
the football ticket management. The
man said that he had paid $10 each for
tickets and had said some of them for
$20 each. This morning a warning
.was issued to the public to the effect
that the holder of tickets bought upon
the streets were liable to have such
tickets seized at the gate and the face
{value returned to the holder.

. The members of the football teams

stayed abed late after quiet nights. At

Polo Favorite, Among The
Number—boo Petitioner Al-
leges llasertl‘on" For Ten
Years Since August ill, I906

All things in these modern days
have their seasons. Like the rush to
the seashore and mountains which
characterize the summer months and
rush back again typical of the fall; like
.the hurry southward for the winter
and the return from the stealth in the
spring. the courts have their seasons.
This is the divorce period of the year
with the civil superior court. and un-
happy couples are hurrying to that
tribunal for the relief they hope to find
for their misery.

Seven petitions for decrees of divorce
have been entered as returnable to the
December term of the court In the past
two days. which isn't bad. it comes
pretty close to the record. Most of the
decrees are for desertion, the length of
time. varying considerably. One decree
has the calm. dispassionate legal state-
ment in it that the defendant deserted
the plaintiff "on the tenth day-of Au-
gust. limit. and has continued said de-
sertion with total neglect of all duties
on her part to be performed for more
than ten years."

That is the action brought by Chaun-
cey ll. Lewis. of Stamford, against
Mary W. Lewis. of Somervlile. Mass.
The plaintiff alleges that he married
Mary White on October 13. 1885. The

Commissioners have much information
on the conditions of affairs in the to

to residents of the city. and it is be-

Pleasant Social Event Enjoyed
at Handsome New Building
in Washington St.-—Conccrt
by Spidel’s Orchestra and
Refreshments Served

 

 

his club ever had a more auspicious
opening night and a fairer start upon
its career than did the South Norwalk
Club last evening. when over three
hundred and fifty members and their
friends gathered within the spacious
and elegant rooms and enjoyed, with
music. dancing. and social intercourse.
one of the most delightful ocwslons
in the way of reception that South
Norwalk has ever seen,

It is‘seldom that ladies ever have
an opportunity of gaining their ‘Way
into the club life of the sterner sex
and all bud been curious to see what
the interior of the new club house was
like. Last evening they were given
the opportunity to visit the handsome-
ly appointed and charmingly arranged
rooms of the club.

On arriving at the club the guests
were ushered to the dressing rooms.
which had been prurmt‘od for them.
the Board of Governor's’ room being
reserved for the ladies. where a maid
relieved them of their wraps.

They were then ushered into the
reception and card rooms. where, he-
hind thc massive andlrous burned a
cheery log fire. which gave a peculiarly
homelike fooling. Comfortable chairs
were placed at points convenient for
those who did not care to dance. and
provisions for the dancers were ade-
quately made about. the wall of the
different rooms.

A concert was rendered by Spcldcl's
orchestra prior to the dancing, which
began at 9 o‘clock and lasted until 1.
The concert was a very artistic one.
the numbers given being classical and
well rendered. with quuiuite tests
by the. orchestra. which has earned a
wail-deserved popularity in The Nor-
walks. All enjoyed this thoroughly
and by the time it came to a close.
the clubrooms were fille with a gay
throng. all bent on enjo lag the even-
ing to the full.

As soon as dancing commenced the
fact that they would do so became eviv
dam. The gathering was a select one.
but the reconfirm. while format, was
in no way stiff or slow. .

The concert had shown the ability
of the orchestra to play classical mu-
sic snri when the. dancing commenced
they demonstrated themselves past
masters in the rendition of dance mu-
sic, with which one and all were
pleased.

Those who did not dance were by
no means without forms of enjoyment.
for they had not only the dancers to
watch. but a number of interesting
games of billiards and pool were In
progress in the billiard rooms. and It
can be safely said that there was not
a dull moment for anyone.

During the. evening. and at intcc
mission. ice cream and cake were serv-
cd by the club caterer. Charles Lillie
ton. with an able staff of assistants.
and these were thoroughly enjoyed.

A fine company of guests. delightful
hosts. excellent music. a dancing floor
which left nothing to be desired com-
bined to make the affair one of the
most delightful of its kind ever held
in The Nor-walks.

Among the octet-town guests who
ware present were Messrs. Herahsr
and Carter. of Bridgeport; Ely. of At-
lnntlc City: George lirummond. of New

Mr. and Mrs. Conrad Borda
Given Judgment for 8250
and Interest at the Rate of
Six Per Cent. for Two Years

.—

'l‘he jury in the celebrated case of
Mr. and Mrs. Conrad Borda against
W. B. DeCarmo. the well known Nor-
walk real estate man. brought in a
verdict yesterday afternoon in favor‘of
the plaintiffs. By the verdict. the
plaintiffs are awarded $250 and in»
terest at the rate of six per cenL
since the deal in question was con-
summated. about two years ago.

Attorney J, fieldcn Huributt stated
today that he would make a motion
for the arrest of judgment in behalf
of his "client. Mr. DeGarmo. After
that Is settled he expects to have the
verdict set aside, on the ground that
”m verdict is against the evidence.

The case was placed- before the jury
shortly before 8 o‘clock yesterday at:
ternoon. Court had been called to
order about 2 o'clock. when Judge Jo-
seph R. Taylor delivered his charge.
Judge Taylor went Into minute detail
ind had his charge typewritten. The
copy was later placed at the disposal
if the jury during their deliberations.
which occupied about an hour. One
point made clear in the charge was
that if Mr. DeGarmo was acting as
agent of the plaintiffs. he had no right
‘0 sell the property for 81.900 and give
the plaintiffs but $1.550. the sum they
received. it was up to the jury to
tackle whether the evidence justified
‘he claim of the plaintiffs that Mr. De.
(larmo was their agent. The jury
evidently bellevod that he was.

Mr. and Mrs, Borda declared in their
bill of complaint that they had been
defrauded by Mr. DeGarmo and main.

Through the Town- Famous
For Making Arrests

The Norwslk Automobile Club is
matching wits today .with the Barton
auto cops and as a result the Norwalk
motorists believed they have complete
1y thwarted the carefully 'laid plans of
the lower town's speed catchers.

Realizing that the big football game
between Yale and Harvard today
would result in hundreds of automo-
biles passing through Darlen. en route
from New York and other cities to
New Haven and that there Would pro-
bably be a great harvest for the far-
famed constabulary, the Norwaik or-
ganziation of motorists. have stationed
men at each end of thespeed trap.
These guards are armed with red flags
bearing the initials "N, A. C." in white
letters. Each car is stopped and its
occupants informed of the danger
ahead. They are also presented with
a card hearing this important notice":
"Catrtion! The man who stops you is
a representative of the Norwalk Aut-
omobile Club. There is a police trap
ahead! Use extreme care until you
pass our other representative with
club flag-red, with letters N. A. C.
Norwalk Automobile Club."

The Norwalk Automobile Club also
intends to have men at each end of
the trap again tomorrow. Last sum-
mer the club had men out similarly on
one or two occasions and the guards
claimed at that time that they were
threatened with arrest unless they de-
sisted. but they held their position!
without actual interference.

The Darlen auto cops have a com-
piste system to assist them in catching
speed violators. A course is measur-
ed off and the officials along the trap
are provided with electric bell equip-
ment.

The usual tine imposed by the road-
