REYNOUKOR^IDGIiWAY
Cites Conclusively Reasons for
Construction of Long Beach
Road Now
The taxpayers of the Town of Hetmpstead men and women, will have an opportunity on election day to de¬ cide whether or not the dangerons grade crossings of the Long Island Railroad east of Oceanside shall be abolished and eliminated and a 100- foot roadway constructed from Ocean- side to Long Beacb, costing $300,000. A referendum was submitted to the Town Board last week, with the requi¬ site number of signatures, and the propositioa will be submlited to the people on election day.
The present highway leading to Long Beach Is very inadequate and the heavy travel of the summer makes
'zJSi^mtximi:'
ed as a confirmation of the unconflrm
ed statements published recently In | j^ practically impossible to avoid ac
the Brooklyn Dally Eagle.,, "This ac¬
tion was taken at the meeting held last Friday afternoon with the four trustees present but wa.s the result of a misunderstanding on the part of one of the trustees.
The plans for the construction of the Ever Ready Hose Company flre house, with the exception of a few changes which trustee Randall was directed to make, wt/e approved as submitted and the clerk was directed to write for bids, to be opened Friday evening, October 3l8t.
A proposed ordinance, suboiltterf by the Flre Council to be known as num¬ ber 37 B. was submitted to Counsel to have same prepared In legal form to be touopted at the next meeting of the Board. The ordinance which Is of utmost Importance is printed be¬ low."
Ordinance No. 37 B. Whoever shall fnll to immediately draw nenr to and parallel with the curb and stop any vehiclp which he may be drlvinp, or be'lnj; the mo¬ torman of a street car shall fail to iniincdiately .stop said car up¬ on the approach of flre apparatus or who shall pass or attempt to pass any flre apparatus in motion, or
Whof'ver .«hall, during a flre, etop any vehicle within flfty feet of a flre hydrant, or fail to move said vehicle from the vicinity of .said hydrant upon orders from any department oflicer or flre¬ man in charge of said hydrant, or Not being the chief, flrst or sec¬ ond assistant chief or surgeon of the flre department, shall carry or cause to be carried on any vehi¬ cle occupied by him, any sign of any description bearing the let¬ ters F. F. D., or any other letter¬ ing Intended to designate appara¬ tus of the fire department, or
Whoever shall drive any vehi¬ cle at any time over tire ^ose etretohed In any street or high¬ way, or
Not being a flreman, shall go within flfty feet of the structure In which a flre Is located, or with¬ in any flre line established as oc- draslon may requiixj.
Shall be guilty of disorderly conduct, and be liable to a flne of not less than flve dollar* ($5) nor more iliSn fltty donars ($50) for each offense.
The requisition of the Fire Depart¬ ment as submitted by the Chief was granted and the goods ordered pur¬ chased. It was ordered that all In¬ surance policies on the Power House and equipment which expire tnis month, be renewed with the same companies as before.
The following aplicatlons were granted: Light—Bert Trayer, Olive Boulevard; Louis A. Harvey, Pine Btreet; Water—Daniel DaSllva, S. Grove street; H. Barasch, Newton Boulevard; Sidewalks—Henry B. Fen- nelly, 21 Pearsall avenue; Herman Glssell, Bay View avenue and Atlantic.
cidents. The' grade crossings have heen the scene of several bad acci¬ dents. The bridge is In a deplorable condition and has been condemned by tlie Town Board.
The referendum provides for the issuance of bonds at 4% per cent per annum, the retiring of $25,000 worth of bonds in January, 1925, and an equal amount each year until the in¬ debtedness is retired.
The contemplated highway will run to the west of the road now in use and will have Oceanslde as the starting point and Long Beach as the terminal. . The proposition will un¬ doubtedly receive considerable sup¬ port In the western section of the town.

Empire Theatre William Gillette, Blanche oaxe* Marie Doro and the company nupport- ing them In "Diplomacy" will give their first New York perfonnance at the Empire Theatre next Tuesday night, October 20th, the Empire Tnea- tre remaining closed on Honday night. Mr. Frotm^an has received and answered for William Gillette several cables from England asking for the rights to profluce "Secret Service" in London—one of the few instances of theatrical aotfvlty shown recently. So far it has been decided tb hold "Se¬ cret Service" for the Gillette r«per- toirs season in London.
Knickerbocker Theatre Julia Sanderson, Donald Brian, Joseph Cawthorn and the musical comedy host behind them in "The Girl From Utah" can now place them¬ selves on three months of literally capacity houses at tiie Knickerbocker Theatre since each, by his or her singing, dancing or comedy antics, swept the piece Into a triumphant suc¬ cess on It opening night. Everybody who sees "The Girl From Utah" gets the habit; no musical piece In years al the Knickerbocker Theatre ever repeated so constantly and satisfac¬ torily; and never has Charles Froh- man produced a musical play of such permanent popularity as "The Gir! From Utah."
