Over 100 Merchants to
Participate in Gala
Event April 2, Sand 4
MANY PRIZES
Both For Public and
Storekecpcrs— B. A.
Kecler Tells Purpose
Of Move
Plans for the Gallo event to be.
staged in the entire city or Non-rail:
to compete for the prizes to be given
{or the best. dressed windows.
B. A. Kcelcr. chairman of the
Mcgchants‘ Committee in charge or
the ai‘l'nir. had this to say when in-
t for the Norwaiks. We are not sat-
t istied with merely giving prizes to
the merchants for their windows.
but we are going to distribute over
_ twenty five prizes each evening to
the general public. Beginning a
week :rom Monday. tickets will be
given with a. purchase at each store
entered in the event. and these tick-
ets will entitle the holder to share in
the distribution or the prizes.
“The basic reason for holding this
event is to show the people of Nor-
waik and surrounding territory, that
we here in Norwaik hairs the Mer-
chandise and the low prices just as
they prevail in the larger cities.
“We are striving to convince the
public that home buying is the 'best
buying’ and that we. the local mere
chants. are ready to give genuine
service."

Adopts Resolution of
Protest Against Ap-
pearance in Criminal
Cases
GREENVVICH, March 15.——-Mem-
iw‘rs or the Greenwich Bar associa-
Lln‘n hero adopted a. resolution of
protest against the appearance of any
attorney on the stat! of State‘s At-
torney Homer S. Cummings as
counsel for the defendant in any pos—
sible criminal matter before the com—
mrr. it was announced today. The
resolution was adopted at a. recent
meeting and is made puflic at this
time by Wilbur “fright. president of
the association, who while not pres-
an: at the meeting was notified 0:
action on the resolution.
The attitude of the lawyers hero
is said to be another expression of
local opinion over the finding on:
Coroner John J. Phelan of Bridge-
port, into the death of Frederick
Webster. who was totally hurt by
the automobile of Louis N. Small on
the Post road on January 30. and
of which Mr. Small was exonerated
from criminal blame by the coro-
ner. Residents of Riverside. in
which section Mr. W'ebster lived, pc-
titioned the coroner ts reopen the
hearing, but the omcial declined to
do so.
it is understood that the resolution!
was adopted because Raymond E.
Hackett. at the law firm in Stam-
ford. of which in. Cummings is the
head. was Smsll‘s counsel in the
coroner's inquest.
Mr. Hackctt said today that the
resolution was “entirely unwarrant—
ed." Swan’s automobile ran into a
group of men who were at one side
at the Post, road at 8:30 p. m.’ on
the night in question and besides
Mr. Webster three other: were in-
jured. W‘s. explanation was that
his cs: skidded when he turned out
