"The first official meeting of St. Michael's Holy Name Society will be held tonight at the Cavalier's Club on Barbour Street. It will be a Get Acquainted Night with the priests of the parish as guests. The bowling league will get going again, as usual as various youth party primaries here Tuesday. The results apparently brought an end to the so-called "Bowers Bloc" and a promise of greater future support for Town Manager Richard Martin.

Bowers, leader of a Democratic-Republican coalition which has been at odds with the town manager, also lost his id for renomina-tion as state representative. New School Main Issue The primaries 'indicated that the Keeney Street School controversy, which has been raging here since last January, was the main issue in the vote. The Bowers coalition, made up of three Republicans and two minority Democrats, discarded the complete original plans and rejected construction bids on the school. The group was also responsible for new plans which are expected to be ready Nov. 1.

The coalition has overruled the town manager's "recommendations several times during the past year, and once passed a re solution limiting his contract privilege to projects involving $500 or less. Other members of the coalition fared better in Tuesday's voting. Helen Fitzpatrick and Walter Mahoney, both Democrats, were renominated. Matthew Pa ton, a Republican who was a candidate both primaries, lost in Repub lican voting but was renominated by the Democrats. The defeat of Bowers and Ken nedy in effect halted re-formation of the bloc.

The top nine candidates will be elected directors from a field of 12 at the town election Oct. 4. The Republicans, however, generally hold the majority here, and the power to form such coalitions. Lacked Committee Backing Both Bowers and Kennedy, al-' though Republicans, were not Judge Johnston Today Probate Judge Russell Z. Johnston will be renominated by Hartford district Republicans today for his eighth consecutive term.

The probate district convention will be held at 11:30 a.m. at the Hotel Bond. A luncheon will follow. The date of the Democratic district convention, which will endorse Judge Johnston, has not been set. Gov.

Lodge Proclaims Indian Day September 24 Named For Commemoration Of Native Americans Gov. Lodge Tuesday proclaimed Friday, Sept. 24, as American Indian Day and in his statement hailed the many heritages which nave come down from the original Amrican natives. Here is the text of Governor's proclamation: "The time draws near when Indian Summer will again cast its mellow glow over our ancient Connecticut hills, reminding us of those first inhabitants who pitched their tents of skin and houses of bark where now white clapboard homes stand along the roadsides. Many of these roads follow the immemorial paths of the red man through the forest, where, quiet as all wild things, he glided through the patterned shade.

"The white man cleared the forest. Where the choke cherry, sumac, and huckleberry once formed a wild tangle, the furrowed field now lines warm in the sun, the old stone wall, covered with creepers, enfolding it like a friendly arem. Still, in the haze that softens the early glow of autumn on the distant hillside, the mind's eye sees again the smoke of ancient campfires. "The Indian taught our forefathers the uses of corn and other staples and of the woodland wealth of a new world. He guided the white man to hunting grounds, and to streams and lakes to which he had given names whose music is like rippling water.

"I urge that our citizens mark this occasion with appropriate observances commemorating the associations of our forefathers with the Indians of our State in the days of our Colonial infancy. Let us. in our schools and colleges, and in our individual opportunities pay special tribute to a race, which though nearly vanished has left its sign and imprint strong upon our State."

Leonardo, 23, of 85 Lafayette escaped going to jail Tuesday when Judge S. Burr Leikind changed his mind about revoking a suspended sentence.

Leonardo and Edmund F. Krep-cio, 28, of 24-D Charter Oak were arrested Sept. 2 by Policeman John F. Cashman who said the two men had a fight on Capitol Avenue. Pros.

Norman B. Yellin told the court the fight apparently started when Krepcio made a remark to his wife and Leonardo objected to the remark. The two men had words and then exchanged blows, Krepcio getting the worst of the fight when he was scratched by a ring worn by Leonardo. Judge Leikind imposed a $50 fine and gave Krepcio a 60-day suspended jail sentence. He then revoked Leonardo probation and placed 10 days into effect in addition to four months sus pended sentence.

ACLU Would Prevent lDKi 1 uniivoi siaviuiiuiaiiuii The Hartford Chapter of the American Civil Liberties Union Tuesday recommended that political beliefs be protected by the State's Fair Employment Practices Act and the Public Accommodations Law. The chapter, through President Robert Satter, made the suggestion at a conference, sponsored by the State Commission on Civil Rights. The conference sought suggestions for amendments to the FEPC and Public Accommodations acts.

Satter said the acts should "be broadened to prohibit discrim'n-ation based upon political opinions and affiliations, unless the security of the country is involved, and unless procedures consonant with due process are followed." He pointed out that nrotection against discrimination "because of political opinions or affiliations" is given State em-nloyes under the State Merit System.
