SOUTH ‘PARK FALSE NATURALIZATION or-mam IN unlsmlcr Democratic Spellbinders Addr-less A Large Crowd: at Silver Moon Hall One man was fatally hurt- and two others are in ‘critical condition from injuries suffered when they were «hurled from an automnobi-le early Sunday morning when the machine in which they were riding skid- ded on South Park Avenue, near the north entrance to the Park, climbed the curb and struck a tree. The dead man is James Glan- ville, 44 ‘years old of 102 Colum- bus Street. A; L. N. Kilman, district Natur- {alization Director has asked ‘Chief Gilson and the Lacke- wanna police to be on the look- |ou't for a crook who is repree senting himself to be a nat-ur~ lalization officer and is solicit- ling and obtaining money un- jder false pretences from aliens ‘in connection wtih their natur- alization papers. “He has so far victimized some six Polish I-persons. both men and women. His last act occured at noon October 19th, when he took the sum of $11 from ‘Stella Kilis at 32 Sweet Avenue Buffalo. He made her think thatzhe was a government representative and would see that she got her citi- zenship papers in a couple of days. Her husband had died only two -days before. A war- rant has been issued for the ar- rest of this man but we have so far been unable to catch him. He uses a half dozen dif- ferent names, none of which imean anything, and issues a little receipt. He is about fifty years of age, medium size, not fat, wears glasses, _is American born apparently-—d‘oes not talk Polish, wears blue suit and felt hat. He has reddish, thick hair, which is his out standing characteristic because the hair appears to be unnatu- ral 1‘or,a man of his apparent age. It in fact might be a wig,” Director Kilman reports. If this man approaches any alien, he should at once ‘tele~ phone the police and call up the naturalization o f f i c e Washington 1075, or the Dep- uty Marsllal, Cleveland 2013, Mr. Kilman advices. Ilackawannais political cam- paign was ‘brought to a focus Tuesday evening, when the opening guns were fired by the Republicans at Dom Pol- sl-:i, following a monster auto parade through the city high- ways. A John Griffiths. former coun- cilman from the third ward, »C-hairman, opened the meet- ing by introducing Supervisor “Bob” Avery, who is seek-ing another term. “Bob\ however showed that he was a good fellow, by boosting his fellow campaign- ers, on'=ly coming out and ask- ing support for ‘himself in about four words \at the end of his address. Assembylman R, Foster Piper, was also a good booster for the Steel City candidates but stressed the point that——- “only ‘by electing Republicans to the Assembly, could up-‘ state taxpayers avoid taxing themselves for '1‘ammany's spend thrift policy in New York, City.\ The soft voice gentleman from Hamburg, explained that‘ only three votes prevented the ‘,\~~v:i1\g of a bill in the last leg- l~ |nl'I:1‘t. wherein the City of \’mv ‘fork was to be relieved§ of its constantly ascending tax rate, through a state wide; tax for its benefit. John Aszkler, mayeralty candidate was the next speak- er and, during his talk, gave many «reasons why he consid- ered he was qualified to lead the City ticket. The candidate pointed out the benefits derived by the <‘-i.t.v threat}: the Jhnubliecnl ~‘ inistration and’ éitplained ? ~w there bene were given lho City. And, how he and T\,l:1\'m.‘ Lohr had visited Al- bany and New York to confer with the Highway Depart- ment and 'l‘.E.R.A. officials and the arguments they ad- vanced before the State would open its coffers to help, (es- pecially) in the Home and Work Relief aid. Mr. Askzler gave figures to support his contention that the Republican party had given the _city an efficient adminis- tration and closed by saving that he was ready to stand for nomination on his record of service for not only the people of the Second Ward but for residents of every ward in the city. Basing his plea for con- tmued‘ support of the Repu_b_n- can party on the accomplish- ments of the present ad- ministration.

For the past few Jlehrs the Dramatic circle of St. Barba- ra's parish have delighted crowds with a series of pre- sentations which ran from purest comedy to the deepest dramatic situations. But, the funny part seemed to be, that while the Circle’s moderator, Rev. -Anthony A. Ciechans_ki, assistant pastor, was able to produce an original score, al- most at will, no one could find out the name of the author. It did not enter the mind of the players that the young man who had been introduced to them as a “pastor of serious demeanor,” could be the power behind the :-laughable, rollick- ing comedies, and the creator of the pathos of some of the dramas they produced. True, Father Ciechaski for all his studiousness was al- ways ready enjoy a joke, and created a loving attachment with all he came in contact with through his well develop- ed sence of humor and deli- cate understanding of the nroblems of his charges and friends. Rev. Francis Radziszewski, pastor oi the parish, however had his suspicious, \and, when he ‘heard his: assistant making music on his typewriter, inter- spersed with chuckles every once in a while, he confronted Father Ciechanski with his suspicious, which were immed- iately verified.

But, without mone- tary benefit to the author. Last Summer the Dramatic.
