the hunters first thought of trying
to run the cow down with horses and
lariata. They changed their minds
when told how speedy the cow was.

Some of the residents in that sec-
tion chased the cow on horseback
on emral occasions. The cow not
culv'eould run as fast as the horses.
but immediately dashed for the
nearest. forest. When in the woods the
cow went under the low hanging
limbs of the trees and this stopped
the horsemen. The cow also led an-
..pther party into the swamp and dis-
appeared by Jumping from bog to
box as easily as a dog. .

The cow is described as being
about three years old and of medium
built. It is colored light brown and
white. The horns of the cow are less
than two inches long.

People have been coming into town
for the past few weeks with tales
of the now. but townspeople laughed
and, believed the ntoey tellers had
lmbidod in too much home brew.

' Ineped Six Foot Fences.

Now that the state and local police
have verified the report the people
are beginning to take interest in the
animal. The cow has not attacked
anybody and seems to be afraid of
humans. . At the sight or scene of
human beings the cow will immedi<
ately dash off into the woods. The
police yesterday say the cow lumped
oval- two six foot fences with the
ease and gracefuiness of a deer. It
sped away like a. greyhound in an
open lot.

The” common council voted last
evening to establish a uniform

Flax Hill road to the First District

“A: the present time the building
line between these points varies
cousideraby. while there is a uni-
form line of five feet in the First

the council when a letter was read
from Hebe Italian. akin: that a

thought that it was time that a uni-
form line was mblishsd and made
a motion techie effect. Councilman

' Yours truly,
EDWARD J. QUINllAN
for Better Films Association.

[Editor's note: There was noth-
ing in the report of the meeting of
the Better Films association meeting
Monday. published in yesterday's edt.
tion, which was designed to convey:
the impression that the article was
submitted by members of that as-
sociation. A representative of The
Evening Sentinel was present at the
meeting and wrote the account of
what transpired ”it re. '

The facts contained in the article
are in no way disputed by members.
Mrs. Maude FCi‘ithllllf’l‘ and others
who attended agreed today the re-
port was accurate.

In conversation with the editor.
Mrs. A. Iiydo Cole. president of the
association. further verified the tem-
per and remarks made at. the pre-
vious day's meeting. She stated
thefe was no criticism of the film to
be shown at a children’s matinee at
the Palace theatre today. Nevérthc~
less an attorney had been engaged to
investigate alleged infractions of the
law with respect to children's pcr-
formances. She said plainly the rea-
son for thia'wns because she con-
sidered the management of the Pal-
ace theatre had been unwilling to
cooperate with the association in the
matter of choice of pictures and
chaperonago for children's nintinces.

One member of the Better Films
association today objected to the use
of the word "censors" in the head-
line over the report. of its meeting
published yesterday.

It was plainly stated by Mrs. A.
Hyde Colo that one of the objects
of the association is to secure from
local theatrical managers a lis "of
those pictures which are to be sh it
here. prior to their presentation. so
that those films considered by a com-
mittee of the association to be below
par may be discouraged. This can-
not be construed in any other way
than an attempt at selfeappoinled
censorship.) ‘

And So It Happens That—-

Following receipt of a. letter on
the legality of children's matinees
from Edward J. Quinlan. attorney
for the Better Films association.
Albert Hamilton. manager of the
Regent and Palace theatres. today
made an agreement with the asso-
ciation through its legal representa-
tive that its membera would be ac-
quainted one week in advance with
the name of the film to be shown
at future children‘s matinees and
thal'tbe association would be Riven
4s hours after receipt of this infor-
mation in which to protest the show-
ing of any particular picture. .

NEW DRIVEWAY ,
T0 ll R. suitor
Willi”

South Norwslk may have a new.
30 foot hardened drive leading up

 

merit started by the common coun-
cil last evening goes through. i

The New York. New Haven andl
Hartford Railroad Company in a
letter to the city has offered to con-
struct such a drive provided that
the city pays half of the costs.

The letter which was read to the
council states that the drivu is used.
more by the city than by the passed-
gers of the railroad company. which
the council agreed was true. as
many automobiles use ll. as a short
.cut from Monroe to Spring streets.

11. E. Bailey the superintendent
of this division stated in the letter
that. construction of such a drive
would cost about 88.300 this would
mean that. the city would have to
lpuy about $4450. No mid that if:
the city did not take this action
that it. might be ncccossnry to closo
up the drive on one side of the
station. They are in bud condition
at the predcnt time.

vl’pou the motion of Councilman
Edward M. Guns it was ruled to
appoint the mayor and the street
committee as a committee to take
the matter up with the railroad
company. They will do this in the
near future.

this bus was brinzlng about 135
people into Somali-l ova day and»
that this was good business for the
city and a help to the merchants.

Attorney Edward J. Quinlan rep-
resenting the Wall street merchants
was the next speaker on the mat-
ter. He said: "1 feel that you sell—
tieilll-n are doing what. you can id
remedy conditions. but. other cities
which are neighbors have more lib-
eral parking laws than we have. “'0
are not coming to you asking for
longer parking ill the first district.
but we usl»; for shorter parking in.

“1 think that it is ridiwlllous id
restrict parking for :4 hours in
some of tho places that are selec-
ted in the prcsent Ol‘dlllfil':('~". I don't
think that we “all: our streets to
look like a desert. Our merchants
don't espcct to make their lilings
off the streets. but they {my high.

slderution. l thillk that you meant.
this ordinance for chronic prirkers.

Allomcy Qililllail's Suggestion.

"Buiore lilrl orrlanurlco “as passer!
automobiles wlro allowvd to park
on bolh sides of tliu road in t'r nt of
the library, and it was a m3 way
street. Now there is no parking on‘
either side and only one way frat.
tie is allowed. I think that we
could have parking on one bill“ and
with Lilli) one way tl‘zll'i’ic tile. street
would be pJSSfihlP.

"Tllcse merchants have long: leases
on their stores. but if this ordinance
continues they will be. forced out of
loudness. Many of them depcildt‘d
upon tllu: automobile trade. and. if the
machines can not stop in front of
their stores they are going to drive
to a. place where they can stop.

"1 also think that. some, arrange-
ment. could be reached with the trol-
Icy company and rcgnlntb iii-l park-
ing of its care.

“The slml ing up of tl-zltlir: is not the
worst thing that could happen. This
prevents accidents. hilt I don't think ‘
we want our streets to iool: as if it
wind storm had struck them. and
I have never heard any complaints
{rem the police of the first district
about. the traffic. They have always
handled it well.

Asks (‘cimllliltee To Confer.

"I don't think that. lawyers should
be engaged for pnv in ill-waking down
our ordinances and that is out my
reason for coming: brfore you. I
would like to have .1 rnllllllittcs M‘-
pointed and confer with a committee
of merchants."
