NORWALK HAS 1

AT THE BEACHES

Roton, Compo, C a l f
Pasture Crowded —
Bell Island Has Ath-

letic Events

Ideal weather gnu: Norwalkers a
joyous day yesterday. The beaches
were crowded. And the automobil-
ists were busy. At the unions rc-
sorts like Dell Island, Harbor View,
gamcs‘wcrc held and in the evening
local residents had some lino dis—
plays of fireworks.

The crowds at iloion and Conipo
were probably the largest in the his-
tory of tb05u resorts and Calf Pas-
turc had a fair share of patronage.
but, of course, due to inadequate
transportation not what it should
have been.

The evening events in the way of
fireworks “‘crc well attended every-
where. Broad ltivcr had a fine dis-
play. due to the thoughtfulness of
Charles Harris. John Mills was a
busy man. He took care at the dis-
play as “oil as hundreds of nearby
residents who walked to the spot
where the display was held.

The shooting began about 1! o'clock
and the last of the fireworks Were
set. off at 10. This was followed by
a bun lire which lighted up the
neighborhood.

The display at Itoton was longer
and better than ever bcfore. Dell
Island too had a. special display on
the East Beach.

Jimmy File delighted a huge

throng in Springwood. Jimmy lnukcs
his own and he made a fine line this
year, probably surpassing anything
he has ever shown Springwood.
, Th were over two hundred
autos Red in the lot at the W'llton
ball grounds last evening for the dis-
play of fireworks. Around the
ground fenced of! for the display
there were rows of cars tlirco deep,
and another row was backed up
against the wall near the Norwulk-
Danbury turnpike. State Policeman
Comstock directed irafiic and kept a
pathway open between the cars.

Besides the fireworks, which con-
sisted of skyrockcts and some set.
pieces, there was dancing.

The Fourth of July events held
yesterday afternoon at Bell Island
went off successfully. The motor
boat race for which the biggest prize
was awarded, was the feature of the
day. This was won by iiiiiy Ortiz.
with Tracy, Beers a. close second. A
silver loving cup will be awarded to
Ortiz this evening in the club house.
The “dizzy race" proved the most
popular of the day The kiddies had
a. try at it and so did the men.

McAdoo Asks Women
At Headquarters —-
Will Fight to Last
Drop of Blood

NEW YORK, July 5.--Declaration
of his purpose “to"fight until the
last drop of blood runs out of me"
was made by \V. G. McAdoo, con-
tender for the Democratic Presiden-
tial nomination in an address yes-
terday to a. hundred women who
called at his headquarters.

"I have no selfish interest in this
fight." Mi. McAdoo told the wom-
on. “The very life of the Democrat-
tic party In at issue. The fate of
Democracy is involved."

McAdoo declared the convention
was deadlocked by two factors. The
first he said was the thought enter-
tained by the supporters of the fav-
orite son: that Governor Smith
might “quit." the second was the
belief in certain quartgrs that “the
McAdoo forces will quit."

"The opposition to us is highly
organized. But they will go down
in defeat Just as the highly organiz-
ed forces in Europe went down to
defeat before the soldiers of de-
momcy," he continued

"W's have not only to fight. the
sinister influence in our own party
but also every sinister influence in
the Republican party. .

"Belcalm and confident in your
strength. What does 63 or 163 bal~
lots mean? If it goes 163 ballots
it means we are much nearer our
goal." '

the deadlock between Wm. G. McAdoo and Governor Alfred 3. ~

strength had been culled out. or t
