Manchester.Grand List uto 3.97%By SOL R. COHEN

Herald Reporter Manchester’s net taxable Grand

List, based on Oct. I, 1975 valuation and minus all allowable deductions, but still subject to adjustments by the Board of Tax Review, is $300,295 - 664. It is 111,491,774 or 3.97 per cent over last year’s figure.

Last year’s $268,803,890 Grand List was 2.9 per cent over .the previous year. The increase the year before that was about 6.2 per cent. Except

'for the last two years, Manchester’s Grafid Lists have been increasing at an average of about 5 per cent a year.

The current Grand List will be the

basis- of tax rates for the fiscal year commencihg July 1, 1976, to be adopted about May 7 by the Board of Directors.

In the area^ served by the Town . Fire District, the valuation totals $240,397,231. which is $10,581,153 or 4.8 per cent above last year. - /

And in the area served by the Eighth Utilities District, the new valuation is $59,897,533, which is $763,948 or 1.29 per cent above last ■year. • • .

Based on the current 50.65-mill General Fund tax rate^ the increase in the Grand List , would generate about $582,100 in added taxes — the

equivalent of just under 2 mills.Based on the current 6-mill Town

Fire District tax rate, it would generate about $63,500 in added taxes.

And, based on the current 4-mills Eighth District tax rate, it would generate about $30,600 in added ■taxes. . ,

The gross Grand List actually waw $307,890,349. However, $7,594,685 was deducted for legal exemptions, with $6,192,022 exempted from real estate,- $13,473 from personal property and $l,389il90 from motor vehicles.

The $300,295,664 net Grand List is divided into the following categories:

• Real Estate - $234,544,742, up $4;755,429 or 2.07 per cent.

• Personal Property—$34,390,392, up $3,078,055 or 9,83 per cent.*’ • Motor Vehicles — $31,360,590, up $3,658,290 or 13.21 per cent.

Town Assessor Ed Belleville said the big r i s e 'in m otor vehicle assessments is because “this year, unlike the previous two years, motor vehicles have kept their value'in the used car market.”

\ J f ‘The increase,” he noted, “ is about double.bf what we reported last year. It reflects the demand for used cars during the past year, including the larger ones. Because of th« gas

shortage the previous two years, people had shunned big cars and they weren’t selling. It showed up in the Blue Book values. “Now; the reverse appears to he happening. Gasoline appears to be available, big cars are selling — including the used one — and thp Blue Book value hasn’t dropped. Most assessments for the older vehicles are about where they were last year.’’. '

He attributed the increase in real estate valuations- to apartment units begun the year before but completed in time for the Oct. 1, 1975 Grand List.

Asked to comment on next year's

Manchester—A City o f Village Charm

Grand List, the one reflecting Oct. 1, 1976 valuations, Belleville replied, “No way.”

The town is in the process of winding down its revaluation program. The Oct. 1, 1976 Grand List will be, based on revaluation figures.

'The Board of Tax Review will be in session five days in March, to hear from taxpayers claiming to be aggrieved by their assessments. Last year they cut a total of $145,773 from the assessor’s Grand List.

The board’s sessions will be in the Municipal Building, March 1-3-8-10

j^from 7 to 9 p.m., and March 6 (a Saturday) from 9 to 11 a.m.

Ford making return visit to New Hampshire

Snowfall boosts energy IssueBy LEWIS LORD

United Press International Heavy snow is hampering the

schedules of presidential primary contenders in New Hampshire but it i s n ’t h u rtin g the e f fo r ts of Democrats who want a new energy policy.

Meanwhile, full-page ads in New Hampshire newspapers today are

urging that Republican John Con- nally’s name be written in on the Democratic ballots next Tuesday. And President Ford starts a two-^ay New Hampshire visit later today.

■ A snowstorm delayed Democrat Jimmy Carter’s campaign stops Wednesday and forced Sen. Birch Bayh, another Democratic contender, to caned a visit to a home

heated by solar energy. The Indiana s e n a to r ja b b e d a f t h e . a d ministration’s energy program — a major concern in chilly New England.

“It is outrageous that the Energy 'R esearch and Development Ad

ministration is willing to spend only a measly two per cent of its budget during the coming year on solar energy research and development,” Bayh said. ’ »

Housing authority members accuse agency of stalling^

: By DOUG BEVINSHerald Reporter

Members of the M anchester H ousing A u th o r ity (M H A ), frustrated with delays in building its 40-unit elderly housing project' bn Spencer St., Wednesday night blasted the state Department of Community Affairs for stalling approval of plans,

“It’s about time we blew the lid on them," Dr. Joseph Danyliw, MHA vice chairman, said. “They’ve held us up every step of the way. Their stalling is costing us money.”

Dr.J Danyliw 1 ^ the attack on.the Department of Community Affairs, which is responsible for the $640,000 state grant being used by the MHA for the housing project.

“We’ve waited too long,” Dr. Danyliw said. "It's about time we took the gloves off.”

Other MHA members agreed with Danyliw, but they were at first reluctant to publicly criticize the state agency, apparently fearing further delays.

But ihe other MHA members, as well as Dominic Cimino, the projept architect, joined in the attack.

Richard Schwolsky, said it’s about time townspeople knew that it’s the state — not the MHA — which is delaying construction of the 40-unit project, which has been in the works since 1973. ,

“I think we’ve been made foqls of long enough,” Schwolsky said.

Nicholas Jackston said he’s “sick and tired” of state interference and vowed nSver to accept a state housing grant again. (Other projects built by the MHA have been funded by federal grants).

“We’re being taken,’’. Jackston said, “ They’re at fault. They’re causing all the delays.'We shouldn’t cover up for them any longer.”

The unexpected criticism of the

been d ic ta to r ia l , re fu sing to acknowledge concerns of the local authority.

The MHA’s original plans for the housing project called for two-story

Department oL Community Affairs' buildings, but the Department ofappeared to have been provoked by a recent letter from Community Affairs Commissioner W. James Rice, asking the MHA to cooperate in planning the housing project.

MHA members said Wednesday night th e y ’ve been try ing to coo p era te , but R ice and his associates in the department have

Community Affairs rejected the plans because s ta te officials preferred one-story buildings, not because of regulations, MHAi members said.

O 'Gov. Grasso told her budget will cripple needed programs

NORWICH (UPI) — The message was the same for Gov. Ella T. Grasso — her austerity budget will cripple needed state programs — but the mode of delivery was much politer than at a raucus hearing last week in Waterbury.

Opponents of^Mrs. Grasso’s $1.8 billion budget packed a Mohegan Community College auditorium Wednesday night, but the gathering was without incident with the exception of a dozen chanting pickets who’ greeted her upon arrival.

At the first budget hearing last week, hundreds of demonstrators, upset at both the budget and her,opposition to forms, of legalized gambling, hounded the governor. She told them they were acting like “children.”

The crowd in Norwich applauded the seem ingly endless line of witnesses who challenged Mrs. Grasso to demonstrate she was providing adequateMor educational and social service needs with her spending plan. / ,

But there wefe none of ■^'e problems envisioned by college President Dr. Robert N. Rue when he asked Mrs. Grasso to cancel her trip because he feared disruptions.

Mrs. Grasso, who told Rue she couldn’t shifb'the hearing, was escorted by a bevy of plainclothes police when she stepped from her car and through the picket line. Large numbers of uniformed officers were present at the hearing.

Technical roadblocks shelve fire district freeze bill

By SOL R. COHENHerald Reporter

Citing technical roadblocks to the proposal, the legislature’s government administration and policy committee has shelved a bill for freezing Eighth District boundary lines.

Manchester State Rep. Ted Cummings, D-12th District, who filed the measure, said today he hasn’t received any official word that his bill is dead but has learned, in informal talks with the committee’s co- 'chairmen, it won't be reported out and, to all Intents and purposes, has been rejected.

His bill was an amendment to Public Act 200, which spells out the procedure for district expansion. It sought to freeze district lines at the point they will be after the Superior Court rules in a declaratory action now before it. The action was brought by the district against the town.

Cummings said the committee co- chairmen had two concerns about his proposal:

• It Involves an area (Buckland)

where there’s a conflict of authority and jurisdiction — a conflict now awaiting clarification in a pending court action.

• I t d o e s n ’t co m p ly w ith technicalities of the Home Rule Act, which requires that requests for changes must be by affirmative resolutions of governing bodies — either the Town of Manchester Board of Directors or the Eighth District board of directors.

Cummings said he’s disappointed but not disheertened.

“In fact,” he said, “one darn good thing has come out of my proposal and out of the public hearing held on' it last week. It promises to result in constructive and positive steps for removing some of the confusion about fire-protection responsibility.’’

He explained, “I note that the district is proposing cooperative efforts by the tiyo departments for the good of the town — and that’s a good sign. The most important thing, after all, is the protection of people and of property, and I'm convinced both

•>

departments are sincere in their et- forts.”

Wallace J. Irish Jr., a leader in opposition to Cummings' bill and a leader in efforts to allow expansion of Eighth District boundaries, said the committee’s action is ah example of C um m ings not doing his homework.

“It shows that members of the General Assembly don’t want to play politics with a m unicipality 's charter,” Irish said.

Cummings said he's learned that another bill of his concerning fire protection will be reported out of committee and appears to have a good chance for passage. It would remove the existing 5 per cent interest ceiling on bonding for fire protection. In Manchester, it would permit the town to float a bond issue for the Bucklpnd Firehouse,^ >^w being financed by temporary notes. '

C um m ings s a id he fe e ls philosophical about it all. “You win some and you lose some,” is how he put it.

•ding June 30, which the governor says can be reduced by turnipg the $29 million Soldiers, Sailors and Marines Fund over to the state’s General Fund.

While Mrs. Grasso was appearing in Norwich, hundreds of veterans descended on the Capitol to protest her plan before a legislative hearing.

One of the picketers in Norwich, Ray Ellis, who said he was a Vietnam-era vetran, carried a sign saying, ‘T m broke now, leave Soldiers, Sailors and Marines alone.”

Mrs. Grasso has proposed a balanced buget for next year, saving money by cutting expenditures for numerous programs, many in the social service and education area.

Mary Clark of Norwich, who said she had seven children she might have been forced to abandon without the help of a social worker at a community action agency, got into a dialogue with Mrs. Grasso, asking her, “Do you think a gamble for a quick buck is worth it in the end?”

“We’d be here till tomorrow if I told you all the secret sorrow .1 have for all of you,” Mrs. G rasso responded.

Rue, sounding the theme of many at the hearing, said Connecticut had the resources to afford more money for state services. He suggested ■ overhauling the tax structure and instituting an income tax.

The Ford administration will push solar energy, Bayh said, “only if the major oil companies figure out a way to collect royalties on4he sun.’’

Democrat Fred Harris stood in the falling snow outside a power company office at Manchester and said, “political talk, especially now, is*’ cheaper than ̂ electric bills.” Harris challenged -^ther Democrats to match his plan to cut electric rates for the poor and end tax breaks for utilities.

Ford’s New Hampshire visit is his second of the campaign. As soon as he le a v e s F r id a y , ,h i s GOP challenger, Ronald Reagan, will arrive for two dayi of campaigning before Tuesday’s vote. By the end of the week Ford will have spent four days campaigning iii the state and Reagan 15.

The Connally write-in campaign is being financed by Texas native Richard Viguerie, a conservative who says he wants to offer New Hampshire Democrats “an alternative to the pack of liberals” seeking the nomination.

Puppets for everyonePinocchio, Punch and Judy, Kukla,

Fran and Ollie, Howdy Doody..;This list goes on and on. Puppets have been popular among adults and children alike, for a long, long time.

Wherever there have been forms of. theater, there have usually been puppets. Articulated figures of deities in ancient Egypt, evidence of which is found in literature and pictorial representation, were a type of puppet. Greek literature as early as the 5th century B.C. alludes to what seem to be puppets. Small jointed clay figures have been discovered in ancient Greek-and Roman tombs.

As yet, there has not been enough evidence of historic development accumulated to decide what the origins of puppetry are. There is, however, some indication that the three- dimensional puppet had its begin-

' nings in the Western World and the shadow pui)pet in the Ea^terh World.

Wherever the origin, puppetry spread throughout the world at what must have been a substantial rate.

Puppets, easily transported in the pack of a wandering actor, survived the fall of the Greek and Roman theater, and persisted through the Middle Ages. Puppets, in the form of animated Christmas characters, were permitted in the churchs long after drama involving human actors was banished. Also, according to some authorities, puppet versions of morality plays were given at fairs as long as a century or two after such plays had ceased to be done by live performers.

By the 1600s„ puppets, an inexpensive form of theater, were virtually everywhere. Puppet shows were even reported to have entertained Cortes’ troops as they marched from Mexico City to Honduras. They were a common occurrence in Elizabethan £ondon and appear in the writings of both Ben Johnson and William Spakespeare.

During the 18th and 19th centuries, there were large, permanent as well as traveling puppet theaters with repertoires of popular plays in most cities in Europe as well as Mexico City, New York and Quebec. Toward

The school was built in the early 1750s and is now on the Von Eckfir property on Keeney St. The foundation for the relocation has been laid, and it is hoped work will be completed by May.

Mr. and Mrs. Francis Mahoney have obtained a woodburning stove once used in a Voluntown school. Purchase of this schoolroom item and others that become available has been made possible by a generous gift from Matthew Moriarty Sr.

Alvah Russell has offered to donate wood for furniture and help with its construction. A handbell given to the MHS last month will be part of the equipment of the teacher, in absentia. it was used years ago at the town

This revival of puppetry as an artistic medium had been brewing since the late 1800 s and became a unified movement in the 1920 s. International. puppef societies were es-' tablished, books were published on hitherto ?ecret how-to s of, puppet making and courses offered in universities. Throughout this period, puppetry remained popular in the East in its more traditional forms.

This renewed interest in puppetry jhas stayed with us. Puppetry has (remained a much-studied subject in college drama departments and is part of the art curriculum in- many elementary schools. Television has

proven a successful medium lor puppelk p roductions and ventriloquists. Teachers and doctors utilize puppets in teaching and testing situations. Children are encouraged to use puppets in creative play.

Here at the museum 'we enjoy puppetry p d puppet making. As,one of our spring class Selqgtions, we are offering a class in puppet making with Sandy Patten, who is a member of Puppeteers of America and has studied puppetry with Dr. Frank Ballard at UConn.

Education proposal to build a bridge or a tunnel over or under Main St. at Educational Square hasn’t been the subject of much enthusiasm.

School Supt. James Kennedy concedes that the bridge and tunnel ideas might not be the answer to Bennet Junior High School’s crosswalk problem.

But Kennedy is right when he says that something has to be done to solve the safety hazards where the student meets the motorist.

The problem of hundreds of junior high school students crossing Main St. several times daily has existed since the school complex opened. But recent changes in the Main St. parking patterns and installation of new traffic signals compounded the problem.

Downtown merchants were right when, a couple of years

ago, they argued unsuccessfully for retention of angle parking on Main St. They said then, and we still agree, that the parking and signal changes are creating a high-speed expressw ay in downtown Manchester.

Instead of sifiddthihg the traffic flow, the new system seems to have increased the backups, prompting many drivers to race to beat the red lights.

It’s dangerous for a single pedestrian, not to nuntibn the numbers of Bennef students who must cross the street.

A bridge or a tunnel might not be the best idea—the $100,- 000 price tag does seem high. But the sch o o l b o a rd ’s proposals have at least opened a dialogue on the long-standing problem.

We hope to se e som e problem-solving ̂ oon.

Veritable greenhouse at tbe city dump

Vegetables grown in urban greenhouses heated by fuel derived from urban wastes could help alleviate the finan-

So says an organization called Research-Resource of Canton, Ohio, which has to be the world’s smallest “think tank.’’

supplies nearly 75 per cent of the vegetable needs of the city’s 4.5 million inhabitants.

Vegetable growers would not need to fear competition from urban greenhouses. R-R also notes that cellulose — plant material — can be converted by bacterial action directly into clean-burning alcohol as a supplemental fuel for internal com bustion engines. City vegetable farm ing could release hundreds of acres for new, intensive vegetation growth for both alcohol and methane conversion.

Editor’s note: Candidates for the presidential nomination of their parties, and other political leaders, were invited by Newspaper Enterprise Association to contr ib u te a r tic le s concern ing presidential character: What sort of person should be elected president on Nov. 2, 1976, and why? Following is one of these contributions. ,

By Morris UdallFifteen years ago, Adlai Stevenson

s p e c u la te d w ry ly th a t th e Democratic presidentiai nominafion might well go to “the last survivor." That year there were 18 primaries; as we move into 1976, we are at 30 and still counting.

So I have been asked, “ 'What drives a man to sit through those dreadful chicken dinners, get no sleep, work 20 hours a day in the hope of being president of the United States?”

The two easy and obvious answers are that you think you can win and that you believe you are gifted with the physical and mental stamina to tolerate what has become an overly long and demanding process. But why would you want such a mankilling job in the first place?

No one starts down this obstacle course from a single motive; as with most human decisions, the reasons are a composite — concern about national problems and a belief that you have some answers, ambition, desire to serve in a challenging position, and the excitement of being a major actor in really big events.

It takes a degree of arrogance and ambition to believe that you, of 210 million,Americans, are (in the adman’s iltimortal turn of a phrase) The One. We have a sort of myth that our president should be the single American who doesn’t want it, who reluctantly leaves the farm to h e ^ the call of his countrymen. As John Kennedy put it, “ Every mother wants her son to be president — but not to become a politician in the process.”

Certainly, I am human enough to recognize and aspire to the psychic

gratifications that go with the presidency. ’The idea of going as far as talent and luck will carry you Is hardly novel — It takes journalists to Pulitzer Prizes, a th lete to the Olympics, scholars to Nobel Prizes.

Richard Nixon spent 25 years making “ambition” a dirty word, but I think my ambition is different from a raw desire for glory or for power over the lives of millions. It is, rather the kind of ambition instilled by my background. It drove my father to study law by mall and become an outstanding jurist; it drove my mother to dream of, and work for, a better life for the Hopi Indians.

There is a much greater factorj^ The desire to help a troubled nation' A year ago, Dave Obey and Henry Reuss and some other congressmen I deeply respect agreed that the country had bwn trapped by reflex Into considering the same list of names

\that- have dominated the national polls for a decade. Many are good men and good leaders, but by and large they are perceived as wedd^ to the dogmas of yesterday or taintW by past defeats.

It seemed to the congressmen — and to me — that the nation yearned for something new, something different, a leadership of new faces with new ideas. My candidacy is the product of those discussions and of the response of hundreds of Americans when I began to explore the possibility of becoming a candidate. It is a willingness to answer, if not a call, at least a whisper.

So I decided to test this belief. I told myself, as most candidates do, that I have a perspective that none of the other prospective contenders shares or can communicate. I believe that the United States is at the end of three major chapters in our national life: ’The cold war and Vietnam, the era of cheap and abundant resources, and the day of presidential absolutism. In my view, these events resu lted from the freezing of hypothesis into myth, and use of those myths to justify excesses.

My previous experiences as a “reformer” — helping to make the House a lively and responsible institution, and helping to create a new set of rules for cleaner elections — whetted my desire to see this election rejected the old way of fat cats, laundered money, and undue influence by large contributors.

I co-sponsored the F ^era l Election Campaign Act providing for partial public financing of the presidential campaign. Although this act is being reviewed by the Supreme Court, it is my intention to adhere to the spending limitations and the contribution limit of |1,CXX) per individual for the remainder of this campaign. ’The spirit of this act says there is no real freedom of speech when the strength of your voice depends on the thickness of your wallet.

In my travels around the country, I have found that a growing number of our people share a concern for our presidential election process which was tom apart by Watergate abuses.

’They see the need for fundamental changes in the way we deal with newly perceived realities. I have become sensitive, as one who remains on the sidelines cannot, to the daily

. problems, the fears and aspirations of this infinitely diverse and creative c o lle c tio n of people ca lled Americans.

’The process has its problems, but I suspect that in a year of real suffering and national doubt, there is no better "school for Presidents” than in the living room s of New Hampshire and the union halls of Detroit. It changes, you, not fundamentally, but the void that separates political philosophy from the real world gradually fills by exposure to scores of people and places and human tragedies and successes you would never have known.

As a result, I think I can say — with the se lf-effac ing m odesty so characteristic of my profession — that I have something different and better to offer; a vision of America returning to the basics, understanding what our true national Interests are, understanding the difference between living affluently and living well, understanding that “consent of the governed” is not a blank check but a credit card, subject to revocation for abuse.

’These are the things that cross my mind on late-night jet flights and in drafty auditoriums. Far more than press clippings and applause, they make the chase worthwhile.

After serving in the Army Air Force 1942-46, he attended the University of Arizona, became student body president, and received an LL.B. in 1949.

A hundred tons of garbage a day, most of it burnable, is now going to the Canton city land’ fill, they note. Instead, it could be delivered to air-tight pits or silos, where methane gas and compost could be generated for use in greenhouses. A new industry could be created, with people learning how to plan, harvest and perhaps package and retail vegetables.

The idea is not entirely new, says R-R. A several-hundred- acre greenhouse complex oh the edge of Leningrad, USSR,

R: Fruit trees under grass, rice paddies, maybe even exotics like bananas and oranges.

The Breckbills invite comment and criticism regarding their idea. “Perhaps’through more of us cooperating,” they hope, “we can find nature’s ongoing, replenishable energies and fit them into our nation’s needs to keep and maintain a good and viable, long-lasting standard of living, while our fossil and mineral energies dwindle to a memory.”

WASHINGTON - Admittedly, things are getting tiresome up in New Hampshire and down in Florida as the oleaginous representatives of various presidential candidates seek

~ out and harry the populace, and the candidates make the same speeches several times a day.

Is New Hampshire really that important? After all, it is a relatively tiny state which in recent years has not been famous for good government or a particularly discerning electorate. Florida has a certain bigness, but I reject the proposition that its voters are any more representative of the national electorate than, say, the folks in Nebraska.

In short, the system has elements of unfairness. Maine’s Sen. Ed Muskie won the New Hampshire Democratic primary in 1972, but was marked a loser because his plurality wasn’t fat enough. Whatever the results in Massachusetts, they will be suspect as reflecting the. preferences' of the only s ta te c a rr ie d by McGovern four years ago.

N evertheless, th is year the average American is rich. This year is when the plain he’s and she’s count.

Because all the nonsense and bosh and, occasionally, a serious thought or two, add up to something known as Election Year. The preliminaries — caucuses, state conventions and primaries — may become what seems too much of a good thing. But they are a good thing because they represent an acknowledgment of the importance of people who are mostly household names only in their own homes.

Andrew Tully

For a brief several months; moving toward Election Day, it won’t matter what your name is, or how much dough you’ve got, or whether you’ve ever skied with President Ford or played touch football with a Kennedy. This year everybody is Somebody.

You’re making maybe 10 bucks less a week than the bills demand and trying to get together that down payment on a three-bedroom brick job. This year you’re just as much of a big shot as the guy with thcee houses and, limousines to match.

When the celebrities vote, it’s a production. Photographers take their pictures and reporters ask for statements and the mob gawks. You just« shuffle into your polling place, give them your name and cast your ballot — and don’t stumble over that threshold on your way out.

But your ballot will be worth just as much as the celebrity’s. ’The big shjits have their privileges outside the voting ̂ booth, but they still get only one vote apiece. The Gerald Fords and the Ronald Reagans and the Moe Udalls and the Scoop Jacksons get the headlines. So be it. This year you’re the boss.I It’s a big country all right. The government spends about |300 billion a year. It’s your money — not Gerald Ford’s nor Birch Bayh’s. Nearly 19,- 000 people work for the S.tate Department. The’yre all your hired hands. And yet a lot of us don’t vote — only

about 65 per cent in 1972. Scared of a little rain, Mac? Made of sugar?

No one knows in advance whose vote will be decisive in a tight one. In one precinct, the winner might have to thank a late-coming housewife who had trouble getting a babysitter. In another, the candidate couldn’t make it without the janitor at the local bank.

This year everybody is Somebody. You got education — four years of college and a Ph D? You get one vote,

stuff? You get one vote, and so does the town drunk. ’The neighborhood Nazi gets a vote, and so does the. Kluxer.

People you like get one vote apiece. So do people you hate. ’They count the butcher’s vote and the baker’s vote and the candlestick maker’s vote. They count the votes of elder statesmen and kids in college. In some places they count votes more than once, but that’s another story.

This year what's important is thatjust like the citizen who quit school in Nobody is a little man — or a little the sixth grade. You never touch the woman, This year everybody is Big.

Brotherhood WeekThere is a difference between

brotherhood and friendship.Brotherhood is mandatory because

there is one God, and Father of all mankind. AH people therefore, whether they are comfortable with the idea or not are, by God’s design, brothers. To reject this idea is to repudiate the universality of God and is an affront to His Name.

Friendship on the other hand, is an act of will. It requires an effort, a reaching out, a willingness to take other people seriously. It involves a sharing of our diversity as well as a discovery of our similarity. It entails

respect based upon an understanding of what is truly important to another person.

When friendship is achieved, a person’s life is enlarged by the inclusion in it of the experiences, hopes, concerns, and achievements of his friend.

The joy of friendship is the ultimate reward of brotherhood. It is one of God’s gifts to His children and surely it must be pleasing to Him when His children accept it.

Residents,In the upcoming special election

for Eighth Utilities District clerk, I would recommend serious thought by its residents before they cast their votes. Woody LeChausse is not a ‘known’ candidate, but he is a dedicated and concerned citizen. He is a hard . worker who sees a job through. Woody is interested not only in the Eighth District and its new residents of Buckland, but in the district’s relationship with the town as a whole. Please take the time to study the issues and get to know the candidates. It is your interests that are at stake in this election. Woody LeChausse, generous, scrupulous, in

GardeningBy Frank Atwood

Births

Many shrubs which flower normally outdoors in spring can be brought into early bloom in the house, and forsythia is undoubtedly the most reliable shrub for this “forcing” process.

Mrs. Charles S. House on Westland St. said the forsythia in her living room window blossomed in about two weeks after she cut the branches, put the stems in water, left them at first in a cool room and, when the buds began to open, brought them into the warmer air of the living room.

The photo shows a characteristic of the forsythia, the blossoms opening before the leaves begii) to show. The buds were set last summer and in pairs, with a leaf bud close beside each flower bud.

If the stems are left in water long enough, the leaves will develop and the flowers drop. New roots will start to grow where the stems are under water, and you have a new plant. Forsythia is a very easy plant to propagate.

Tile flowers are a clear, bright yellow, very cheering on a wintry day. Steve Dunn has set Mrs. House’s flowering branches in the window to picture them against a background of snow and pine trees. The bronze horse on the windowsill is a souvenir of a trip to Greece and is reproduction of an ancient bronze horse in the National Archeological Museum at Athens.Several Varieties

There are numerous varieties of forsythia, most of them originating in the Orient, but a few in Europe. Some kinds have been developed in nurseries and one called Lynwood showed up as a sport in a garden in Ireland about 20 years ago. It is widely offered by modern nurseries hnd admired for its brilliant yellow color.

The Houses’ bush is of an older sort. Mrs. House told me it was a gift from her husband’s mother, Mrs. Sophia House, when the younger Houses built their home 32 years ago. Snowdrops blossom

A few warm days in February have brought out our earliest spring flowers, the snowdrops. My wife saw them first, a single nodding white blossom and a small clump of buds. It was Lincoln’s Birthday.

The small bulbs were started soon after we moved to Manchester and they have provided flowers each spring, the clump growing gradually larger. The snowdrops grow beside a rock, set in the garden as a stepping- stone, which helps to hold the warmth of the afternoon sun.

They do'best, the book says, if they are given partial shade, but there is no shade for these little plants. They do the best they can through summer" days that are hot and dry in this area.

This column would like to add a word of congratulation to Lee Fracchia whose retirem ent as Manchester dog warden was marked recently by a dinner at which some of his friends had to be turned away for lack of seats.

Early in the days of writing about gardening for ’Die Herald, I told about my expefiehce with French endive, growing the robls like so many parsnips in the garden, digging the roots in late fall, cutting off the leaves and planting the roots in damp peat moss in a deep platit box in the basement garage. Then we waited for new, tightly rolled spears to grow from the cut crowns of the roots.

blanched by the darkness of the peat moss, as a bitter-sweet and tender salad green. Seed packets will be found labeled “witloof chicory,” the first word being Dutch for “white leaf.’’

Lee has been growing. his own witloof chicory ever since, setting the roots in sand instead of peat, and in the area that is warmer thhn my garage. His harvest is. always .ahead of mine, and larger, since he grows more roots. Sometimes around Christmas he appears at the door with a plastic bag full of beautifully grown salad spears, most welcome.

Lee should have mate time now togrow new plants in his garden and _____maintain his enviable reputation as a fisherman.

Psychologist to address singles“The Use of Biofeedback

in C o n tro llin g Our Brainwaves," will be the topic presented by Richard Goldwasser, a Manchester school psychologist and part-time psychology instructor at Manchester Community College, when he addresses members of the Meeting House Singles on Sunday.

’The meeting will be held at 8 p.m. at the Unitarian (Tiurch in West Hartford.

Goldwasser will explain the procedure involving theuse of e le c -

troencepholographic equipm ent to iden tify and provide feedback of the electrical waves generated by the brain.

F or the past yea r, Goldwasser has been conducting research into b io feed b ack and has recently concluded an experimental group in which the participants were successfully trained to control their alpha brainwaves. The alpha state was described as a relaxed level of functioning in which the individual

experiences a sense of t r a n q u i l i t y andpeacefulness.

Sunday’s lecture will include a demonstration by one of the people trained by Goldwasser: TTie person, on command, will turn his alpha waves on and off which .will,, be amplified into a loud speaker for the audience to hear. People from the experimental group will also discuss the results of their individual training and the changes that have taken place thus far.
