COPY 8 CENTS Demands Sewer Board Give Pollution Report To Health Officer Corbett Believes 'Unhealthy' Areas Can Be Corrected Without Sewers John Corbett, business mana- ger of the East Haven School system, called upon the sewer committee yesterday, lo turn over to Dr. Robert M. Taylor, their findings as to any un- healthy or polluted areas that are claimed to exist In East Ha- ven. The business manager said that in view of the fact that the voters saw fit to turn down the proposed project to Install a $S,- 000,000 sewer system, then the committee should take action lo eliminate any .conditions which they have found to be detrimen- tal to the town's, general health. Corbett, who has fought against tho installation of sewers, stated that if the members of the sewer body were sincere in pro- tecting the town's'health, and not merely interested in creating a multi-million dollar "Franken- stein" to be headed by a board that would receive a yearly re- compense running into tnous-. ands of dollars, then it' was "their, duty" to notify Dr.. Tay- lor of such danger. By such, action, the business manager claimed, they would not only be helping in improving sewage conditions, but would al- io be aiding. In furthering the educational housing needs of the; town. . , v J *'If (D..

It Is their duty to turn over to tho town health officer the report; concerning the polluted areas in. East Haven." "They have worked to compile' an extensive report on the needs- of a sewer to reduce or elimi- nate unhealthy sewage condi- tions that, exist on certain prop- erties or in parts of some of the town's districts." "In view of that fact that the voters saw fit at this time to decline to accept the committee's solution, namely the expenditure of $5,000,000 of public funds, to clean up 'filthy conditions' al- leged to exist by this committee, then this body, if they are in earnest, are thereby compelled to turn over to the proper au- thority, (the health officer) the results of their findings, so that he can use his full and complete powers to order the offenders to correct the existing' unhealthy situation." "Bcausollel's published state- ment that every vote against the creation of a sewer authority was a vote in favor of 'living In filth* should be challenged as an affront to every law abiding and respectable property owner who believes that there is a fully ef- fective and less expensive meth- od of correcting the undesirable situations that are said to exist. Namely, to require the offend- ers to eliminate the nuisance which is their responsibility.". "Such a solution Is far better than Imposing a 55,000,000 capi- tal, expenditure with the attend- ant annual operating expenses upon the general public, many of whom have no need for any further sanitary facilities that they now own on their proper- ty." "It Is my opinion that the present administration machin- ery is adequate to correct any offense that may menace the general health of this town through pollution. If. this ma- chinery should prove Inadequate In the years to come then the sewer question can be re-exam- ined." "Now that the townspeople have rejected the sewer ques- tion," Corbett, concluded, "and have approved the building of more educational housing facili- ties to care for the growing fchool population, the sniiltation (Continued On Page Three) Downer Assigned To New York Cit)' By Telephone Co.

EastllavenScliool 1955-56 Budget Up $165,704 The 1555-56 budget tor tho East Haven School system has been set at a gross ot $920,595.- 28, It was anilounceii by Supt. of Schools R. Vernon Hays, today, by the authority ot Francis Walsh, Board ot Education chair- man. As compared to last year's gross of 5754,888.82, this repre- sents an overall increase ot 5165,704.46. However, according lo Ihe re- port prepared tor the Board at Finance, the increase (o-,^the peo- ple ot East Havun will be 574,450.75. Francis Walsh,- chair- man. Of the Board of Education pointed out, that the estimated revenue increase over last year will be 591,353.71, most 'ot which will be returned to the town through the slate aid to sciiuois law, which was passed in the re- cent General Assembly. A partial breakdown ot the budget to explain the increase was revealed by Supt. Haysi The increase is .composed of an estimated 565,000 for the hiring of 18 now elementary teachers and two new high school teacli- crs. These additions were made necessary tlirgugh population- in- crease and the including ot addi- tional courses at the high school. Added lo this figure, is the sum ot 516,130 to pay tor salary increases to present teachers under the terms ot their two year -contracts. 'I'olal Increase for teachers salaries is 581,130. '- Other major increases come under the heading of' "Malnle-; nance ot Plants" which comes to the elimination of fire hazards and construction of fire preven- tion devices as recommended by .Firt^, Marshal, Ernest,. Hansen, vvhich will cost 520,000. , .. '-'The temaTndiJr.' 'ot'This" main-, talnance' sum will be, spent at the high school, for the most part, to install a, new roof, and make major Inside repairs to ceilings that have been damaged by. leak- age. Much ot the major Increase can be' attributed lo the two new schools, Overbrook and Deer Run, and the three room addi- tion at Momauguin, Walsh stat- ed. He pointed out. that these ad- ditional school fiicilities would be In operation for a full year beginning In September, and tho additional costs would be tor light, heat, power, water, a .d custodlol and cafeteria supplies and services. "' Walsli said a complete break- down ot the budget will be pub- licized after the meeting between Ihe Board of Education and the Board of Finance, when they win discuss the budget, A partial budget figure was re- leased as follows: 1954-55 gross budget, 5754,888.82; 1955-56 gross 5920,593.28; gross Increase over 1954-55, 5165,704.46. 1954-55, estimated revenue it (Continued On Pago SSix) Clancy Protests Argrave's Refusal To Relocate Ramp Kast llnvon First Sfleclman Frank Clancy wrote a letter to the State Highway Conimts.'ilon- er Newman Argrnves prolesting the lattor's decision regarding the relocation of the westerly feeder ramp for the proposed Connecticut Turnpike. In his letter of yesterday, tho First'Selectman listed five rea- sons which he considered lua- damental for the town's econ- omic and really welfare, as to why the ramp should be re- located. While Clancy agreed with Ar- graves that geometric factors appeared to be the controlling factors ill the design of the ramp, he pointed out "facts which wo believe to be mo.st Im- portant,"whlch he claims Ar- graves failed to consider in making his decision to relocate. Clancy said town was inter- ested In getting the feeder ramp redesigned not because ' it woe "Interested in any particular property owner, but for the benefit, of all Its people," Clancy's letter reads as fol- lows: , "Dear Commissioner: Your letter of August 1, 1955. In which you explain the results of your review of the proposed design re-locating Route Uo. X has been thoroughly examined. It would appear that both hor- "izontal and .vertical geometry were controlling factors In pre- paring the design." Your attention la respectfully directed to these pertinent facts which > we believe to be most important and which you appar- ently failed to consider; A. Available industrial sites In the' Town of East Haven. B,, The location- -and size of '.,-• •;•; sald^sltfis..;:.-•."•,wji'.-•; C. Loss of .tax >eventie to the Town, of East Haven. D. Loss of economic dollars to both the Town of East Ha- ven and Its people. E. Loss of time, effort- and money expended In town planning based on the de- sign and the commitments of former Commissioner Hill. Tlie Town of East. Haven is not Interested In any particular property owner, but, acta only for the benefit/of all Its people. Under the circumstances then, we, are of the opinion that the contemplated changes will be pxtremely, detrimental to the Town. of East Haven, and there- fore of refcord oppose said changes, arid'we are .of the fur- ther opinion that, the Highway Department- should reconsider its outlined decision giving ;the above^and all othrtr factors con- cerning the hardship to the Town, of East Haven due con- sideration before final decision Is reached.

Kverett Shaw, executive secretary of the New Haven Police Union, , Barker-Vcstuti Top McManus And Ginnetti In GOP PrimaiT Fight For Selectman Posts Anastasio Says He Will U t Victors Run Own Campaign East Haven's registered Re- publicans baclted up their Town Committee's choice for First and Second Selectmen, when they voted for the Frank Barker- John Vestuti ticket over Frank McManUs and William Ginnetti, who sought lo depose them In the primary .Tuesday. Of the 1,357 registered Re- publicans, 754 turned out to vote their preference. Oddly enough, although this numlier of bal- lots were cast for First Select- man, only 745, or nine less, were cast for Second Selectman. After the polls closed at 9 p.m., the crowd that gathered at GOP headquarters^, on High Street, grew tense to'await the, returns. The first to report was Momauguin, which voted for Barker, 44-42, and Ginnetti 44- 41. _ . ' , . Barker's two vote lend In- creased when the Center polls announced 221 for him to 187 for McMnnus, and 216, for Ves- tuti to GInnettl's 186. By now the crowd had grown considerably, and there was a subdued air of optimism perme- ating the headquarters. This op- timism turned to confidence when Foxon supporters rushed In with the news that Barker had swept the North, 76 to 6; and Vestuti over Cl,nnettl 69 to 53. Barker's supporters now felt that Frank was in, with only the West End to bo accounted for. Although It was generally felt that this section would go McManus-Glnnettl, It, was un- likely that of the 138 votes cast, McManus would poll -the 163 ballots necessary to top Barker. As the cro'A'd waited eagerly, and with growing impatience, the returns from the West End were slow ill coming In. By 10 p.m., no word had been received, that at about 10:15, the phone rang and the vote was McManus 88, Barker 50, making Barker the winner by a 28 vote margin. Ginnetti polled 88 to 48 over Vestuti, but Vestutl's combined vote gave him a 3 ballot mar- gin over Ginnetti. Run Own Campaign Shortly after the final results, Malhew Annslnslo, town chnlr- mun of the Uopubllcnn party, told the NEWS he would' let Barker and Vestuti run their owit campaign, and would give, such help as they reiiuired. Asked " as to the charges he promoted the primary to unseat Barker, Anastasio snld this was ridiculous and that the reason he ran the primary was, "I was crltlcb.ed s the ' last time (two years ago), because I refused to hold a primary. This time when they asked for a primary, I let them have it rather than be criticized again as 1 was in ^he lost campaign," The primary was the final battle In the fight tor the top posts on tho GOP ticket that began last May, when Barker forced his nomination at the Tpwn Committee meeting. U was known nt that time Anas- tasio ' favored McManus over Barker, as the opponent against Frank Clancy, who tho GOP figured to run on the Dem- ocratic . ticket. Since then, however, develop- ments within the Democratic party saw a radical change of sticking with 'a winner to back- ing a lesser candidate. Clancy failed to got the Democratic- nomination,, which was given to Ijomlnic Ferrera, incumbent SecV ond Selectman, However, prior to Clancy's de- feat within his own party,' many staunch Republicans privately held the opinion that their chances of defeating the Incum- bent were none too good. Now with Forrara In the top spot, these same Republicans feel that Barker's chances of winning tlie election are from good to ex- cellent. Barker, who was not Intim- idated by the fact that Clancy would in all likelihood be his opponent, is confident he can defeat whomever the Democratls put against him. ' Tuesday night, while the bal- lots were being counted he was calm and refused ^ to , comment on his chances of retaining the First Selectman nomination. After his victory was assured, ond he was being congratulated, by the hordes of well wishers who flocked to the headquarters, he still retained his calm. Barker Expresses Thanks To Backers In Primary Victory Frank A. Barker, who defeat- ed Fronk McMnnus In the pri- mary battle for. tho First Select- man nomination of the Itopubll- can parly, Is.sued a stnlcmoiit, of thanks lo the NEWS yestoiday. Tho Uepubllcun ticket will be headed by 13orkor and .John Vrastull, manager of JiJverybody's Market. Boi-kor's statement following Ills victory reads as folluwH: "Neuclless to suy I am Imppy and thankful that the reglsleroU llcpubllcans ot East Haven havn backed up the'original choice of Iho Republican Town Committee by selecting me and John Vcs- lull as candidates for Soldclfpen' In the coming Town clectjon. Tiio victory would not have been possible except for" the hard work put In by our friends and supporters during the vpi-y short time since tho primary was an- nounced. To them, and to those who voted for mo, I ejftond my deepest thanlts."' 'I honestly believe that my earlier term as First Selectman was a goojl one, but I shail make every effort to make my second term a belter one If I am elected In October. I have a platform prepared which wUi bo announced nt the proper time and I believe' that It Is one that will lead the voters of East Haven to decide that tlioy want to return to a Republican Administration, i am iSertoln that all those who .sin- cerely desire a Republlsan vic- tory will now join ,ln a solid block to promote that victory. My evi3ry effort will go toward a good ! Republican Party, a good admlnlslrntlon, ond a good Town to live In, at o cost within the reach of thoso who live in It'V Entire Design Will Be Effected If Change Is Made Some Released Land To Be Reacquired To Meet Present Traffic Conditions-Argraves In a letter lo East Haven Flr.st St'loctnmn Frank Clancyi State Highway Commissioner Newman 10. Argraves stated thfct tho State Highway Department has turned down tho request ot Frank Sullivan for a change of design in the west feeder ramp of tho Connecticut Tui-npike formerly tho Orcenwlch-KIil- Uigly Expressway), which will liiigln near tho entrance of the Tost Urive-In Theatre. Also In commenting on the pro- posed feeder romps that will In- tersect the Turnpike near ChoPr ry Street, Argraves snld that changes In traffic conditions and design standards, slncq .the ex- pressway project got under viay several years ago, will necessitata tho reacquiring of land abutting the expressway. In tho matter of tho theatre property, Sullivan asked that the present plans.tor ,the westbound fuodor land ;i)e' changed tp ftclU* itate nooesii and egrcii's ft()in;,'.the • thcotrs. However, aocordiiig'to Argraves any change wotild be costly and the resulting advan- tages would bo almost nil. In discussing the factors > that determined the ramp's design, Argraves stated: "In preparing the design both horizontal end vertical geometry were , controll- ing factors. Two vertical "controls are Immediately evident. Tlieso are the clearances requii'ed over tho railroad tracks and tliat ro- qulrcd over the relocated west- bound roadway of Route 1,' The expressway grade, thus governed, affects grades and geometry of ramps and frontage roads be- cause of lateral controls," Argraves said tliat to concede- to Sullivan's proposal would re- sult In Increased financial costs, adversely, affect other area pro- crty owners and would in one Ih- alanco take more land away from Sullivan. .• Stating that the matter had boon Intensely studied the com- missioner claimed that under the present sot-up both the town and slate would receive greater boh- otlts, which would offset- any hardship caused to an'Indlylduel property owner. The iettor, which was dated August 1, was received by Clancy yesterday, wiio in turn notified Mr. Sullivan of its contents. The letter read as follows: "Dear Mr. Clancy: In accordance with discussions held with you, Mr, Sullivan pttiji others on June 3,' 1955, In Efist Haven, a revlcvv of bur propdsoi design In the vicinity of' Mf, Sullivan's proporty has bee,n riiade, with particular attention being given to certain , speciflei recommendations , „of''the grioup with which we met. i,-'; "In preparing the design both horlzonlal and vertical- geometry were controlling factors. .

Demands Sewer Board Give Pollution Report To Health Officer

Corbett Believes 'Unhealthy' Areas Can Be Corrected Without Sewers

John Corbett, business mana­ger of the East Haven School system, called upon the sewer committee yesterday, lo turn over to Dr. Robert M. Taylor, their findings as to any un­healthy or polluted areas that are claimed to exist In East Ha­ven.

The business manager said that in view of the fact that the voters saw fit to turn down the proposed project to Install a $S,-000,000 sewer system, then the committee should take action lo eliminate any .conditions which they have found to be detrimen­tal to the town's, general health.

Corbett, who has fought against tho installation of sewers, stated that if the members of the sewer body were sincere in pro­tecting the town's'health, and not merely interested in creating a multi-million dollar "Franken­stein" to be headed by a board that would receive a yearly re­compense running into tnous-. ands of dollars, then it' was "their, duty" to notify Dr.. Tay­lor of such danger.

By such, action, the business manager claimed, they would not only be helping in improving sewage conditions, but would al­io be aiding. In furthering the educational housing needs of the; town. . , v J *'If (D.. Charles),BepusoUel. and -his-committee are, ^ncere,"' CorV. belt said| ;*'ln cleaning up the unhealthy, areas of the, town and are not merely interested in cre­ating a. $5,000,000 Frankenstein <a monster one creates but can­not cbntroi),.to,bej.headedby an authority that will have a chair-. man who will receive as high as 57,500 per annum, then,. It Is their duty to turn over to tho town health officer the report; concerning the polluted areas in. East Haven."

"They have worked to compile' an extensive report on the needs-of a sewer to reduce or elimi­nate unhealthy sewage condi­tions that, exist on certain prop­erties or in parts of some of the town's districts."

"In view of that fact that the voters saw fit at this time to decline to accept the committee's solution, namely the expenditure of $5,000,000 of public funds, to clean up 'filthy conditions' al­leged to exist by this committee, then this body, if they are in earnest, are thereby compelled to turn over to the proper au­thority, (the health officer) the results of their findings, so that he can use his full and complete powers to order the offenders to correct the existing' unhealthy situation."

"Bcausollel's published state­ment that every vote against the creation of a sewer authority was a vote in favor of 'living In filth* should be challenged as an affront to every law abiding and respectable property owner who believes that there is a fully ef­fective and less expensive meth­od of correcting the undesirable situations that are said to exist. Namely, to require the offend­ers to eliminate the nuisance which is their responsibility.".

"Such a solution Is far better than Imposing a 55,000,000 capi­tal, expenditure with the attend­ant annual operating expenses upon the general public, many of whom have no need for any further sanitary facilities that they now own on their proper­ty."

"It Is my opinion that the present administration machin­ery is adequate to correct any offense that may menace the general health of this town through pollution. If. this ma­chinery should prove Inadequate In the years to come then the sewer question can be re-exam­ined."

"Now that the townspeople have rejected the sewer ques­tion," Corbett, concluded, "and have approved the building of more educational housing facili­ties to care for the growing fchool population, the sniiltation

A partial breakdown ot the budget to explain the increase was revealed by Supt. Haysi

The increase is .composed of an estimated 565,000 for the hiring of 18 now elementary teachers and two new high school teacli-crs. These additions were made necessary tlirgugh population- in­crease and the including ot addi­tional courses at the high school.

'-'The temaTndiJr.' 'ot'This" main-, talnance' sum will be, spent at the high school, for the most part, to install a, new roof, and make major Inside repairs to ceilings that have been damaged by. leak­age.

Much ot the major Increase can be ' attributed lo the two new schools, Overbrook and Deer Run, and the three room addi­tion at Momauguin, Walsh stat­ed.

He pointed out. that these ad­ditional school fiicilities would be In operation for a full year beginning In September, and tho additional costs would be tor light, heat, power, water, a .d custodlol and cafeteria supplies and services. "' Walsli said a complete break­

Clancy Protests Argrave's Refusal To Relocate Ramp

Kast llnvon First Sfleclman Frank Clancy wrote a letter to the State Highway Conimts.'ilon-er Newman Argrnves prolesting the lattor's decision regarding the relocation of the westerly feeder ramp for the proposed Connecticut Turnpike.

In his letter of yesterday, tho First'Selectman listed five rea­sons which he considered lua-damental for the town's econ­omic and really welfare, as to why the ramp should be re­located.

While Clancy agreed with Ar-graves that geometric factors appeared to be the controlling factors ill the design of the ramp, he pointed out "facts which wo believe to be mo.st Im-portant,"whlch he claims Ar-graves failed to consider in making his decision to relocate.

Clancy said town was inter­ested In getting the feeder ramp redesigned not because ' it woe "Interested in any particular property owner, but for the benefit, of all Its people,"

Clancy's letter reads as fol­lows: ,

"Dear Commissioner: Your letter of August 1, 1955. In which you explain the results of your review of the proposed design re-locating Route Uo. X has been thoroughly examined. It would appear that both hor-"izontal and .vertical geometry were controlling factors In pre­paring the design."

Your attention la respectfully directed to these pertinent facts which > we believe to be most important and which you appar­ently failed to consider;

A. Available industrial sites In the' Town of East Haven.

B,, The location- -and size of '.,-• •;•; sald^sltfis..;:.-•."•,wji'.-•;

C. Loss of .tax >eventie to the Town, of East Haven.

D. Loss of economic dollars to both the Town of East Ha­ven and Its people.

E. Loss of time, effort- and money expended In town planning based on the de­sign and the commitments of former Commissioner Hill.

Tlie Town of East. Haven is not Interested In any particular property owner, but, acta only for the benefit/of all Its people. Under the circumstances then, we, are of the opinion that the contemplated changes will be pxtremely, detrimental to the Town. of East Haven, and there­fore of refcord oppose said changes, arid'we are .of the fur­ther opinion that, the Highway Department- should reconsider its outlined decision giving ;the above^and all othrtr factors con­cerning the hardship to the Town, of East Haven due con­sideration before final decision Is reached.

Awaiting your further advice in this matter, I am

Very truly yours, Frank S. Clancy, First Selectman

Barker-Vcstuti Top McManus And Ginnetti In GOP PrimaiT Fight For Selectman Posts Anastasio Says He Will U t Victors Run Own Campaign

East Haven's registered Re­publicans baclted up their Town Committee's choice for First and Second Selectmen, when they voted for the Frank Barker-John Vestuti ticket over Frank McManUs and William Ginnetti, who sought lo depose them In the primary .Tuesday.

Of the 1,357 registered Re­publicans, 754 turned out to vote their preference. Oddly enough, although this numlier of bal­lots were cast for First Select­man, only 745, or nine less, were cast for Second Selectman.

After the polls closed at 9 p.m., the crowd that gathered at GOP headquarters^, on High Street, grew tense to'await the, returns. The first to report was Momauguin, which voted for Barker, 44-42, and Ginnetti 44-41. _ . ' , .

Barker's two vote lend In­creased when the Center polls announced 221 for him to 187 for McMnnus, and 216, for Ves­tuti to GInnettl's 186.

By now the crowd had grown considerably, and there was a subdued air of optimism perme­ating the headquarters. This op­timism turned to confidence when Foxon supporters rushed In with the news that Barker had swept the North, 76 to 6; and Vestuti over Cl,nnettl 69 to 53.

Barker's supporters now felt that Frank was in, with only the West End to bo accounted for. Although It was generally felt that this section would go McManus-Glnnettl, It, was un­likely that of the 138 votes cast, McManus would poll -the 163 ballots necessary to top Barker.

As the cro'A'd waited eagerly, and with growing impatience, the returns from the West End were slow ill coming In. By 10 p.m., no word had been received, that at about 10:15, the phone rang and the vote was McManus 88, Barker 50, making Barker the winner by a 28 vote margin.

Ginnetti polled 88 to 48 over Vestuti, but Vestutl's combined vote gave him a 3 ballot mar­gin over Ginnetti.

Run Own Campaign Shortly after the final results,

Malhew Annslnslo, town chnlr-mun of the Uopubllcnn party, told the NEWS he would' let Barker and Vestuti run their owit campaign, and would give, such help as they reiiuired.

Asked " as to the charges he promoted the primary to unseat Barker, Anastasio snld this was ridiculous and that the reason he ran the primary was, "I was crltlcb.ed s the ' last time (two years ago), because I refused to hold a primary. This time when they asked for a primary, I let them have it rather than be criticized again as 1 was in ^he lost campaign,"

The primary was the final battle In the fight tor the top posts on tho GOP ticket that began last May, when Barker forced his nomination at the Tpwn Committee meeting. U was known nt that time Anas­tasio ' favored McManus over Barker, as the opponent against Frank Clancy, who tho GOP figured to run on the Dem­ocratic . ticket.

Since then, however, develop­ments within the Democratic party saw a radical change of sticking with 'a winner to back­ing a lesser candidate. Clancy failed to got the Democratic-nomination,, which was given to Ijomlnic Ferrera, incumbent SecV ond Selectman,

However, prior to Clancy's de­feat within his own party,' many staunch Republicans privately held the opinion that their chances of defeating the Incum­bent were none too good. Now with Forrara In the top spot, these same Republicans feel that Barker's chances of winning tlie election are from good to ex­cellent.

Barker, who was not Intim­idated by the fact that Clancy would in all likelihood be his opponent, is confident he can defeat whomever the Democratls put against him. '

Tuesday night, while the bal­lots were being counted he was calm and refused ^ to , comment on his chances of retaining the First Selectman nomination. After his victory was assured, ond he was being congratulated, by the hordes of well wishers who flocked to the headquarters, he still retained his calm.

Barker Expresses Thanks To Backers In Primary Victory

Frank A. Barker, who defeat­ed Fronk McMnnus In the pri­mary battle for. tho First Select­man nomination of the Itopubll-can parly, Is.sued a stnlcmoiit, of thanks lo the NEWS yestoiday. Tho Uepubllcun ticket will be headed by 13orkor and .John Vrastull, manager of JiJverybody's Market.

Boi-kor's statement following Ills victory reads as folluwH:

"Neuclless to suy I am Imppy and thankful that the reglsleroU llcpubllcans ot East Haven havn backed up the'original choice of Iho Republican Town Committee by selecting me and John Vcs-lull as candidates for Soldclfpen' In the coming Town clectjon. Tiio victory would not have been possible except for" the hard work put In by our friends and supporters during the vpi-y short time since tho primary was an­nounced. To them, and to those who voted for mo, I ejftond my deepest thanlts."'

'I honestly believe that my earlier term as First Selectman was a goojl one, but I shail make every effort to make my second term a belter one If I am elected In October. I have a platform prepared which wUi bo announced nt the proper time and I believe' that It Is one that will lead the voters of East Haven to decide that tlioy want to return to a Republican Administration, i am iSertoln that all those who .sin­cerely desire a Republlsan vic­tory will now join ,ln a solid block to promote that victory. My evi3ry effort will go toward a good ! Republican Party, a good admlnlslrntlon, ond a good Town to live In, at o cost within the reach of thoso who live in It'V

Entire Design Will Be Effected If Change Is Made

Some Released Land To Be Reacquired To Meet Present Traffic Conditions-Argraves

In a letter lo East Haven Flr.st St'loctnmn Frank Clancyi State Highway Commissioner Newman 10. Argraves stated thfct tho State Highway Department has turned down tho request ot Frank Sullivan for a change of design in the west feeder ramp of tho Connecticut Tui-npike formerly tho Orcenwlch-KIil-Uigly Expressway), which will liiigln near tho entrance of the Tost Urive-In Theatre.

Also In commenting on the pro­posed feeder romps that will In­tersect the Turnpike near ChoPr ry Street, Argraves snld that changes In traffic conditions and design standards, slncq .the ex­pressway project got under viay several years ago, will necessitata tho reacquiring of land abutting the expressway.

In tho matter of tho theatre property, Sullivan asked that the present plans.tor ,the westbound fuodor land ;i)e' changed tp ftclU* itate nooesii and egrcii's ft()in;,'.the • thcotrs. However, aocordiiig'to Argraves any change wotild be costly and the resulting advan­tages would bo almost nil.

In discussing the factors > that determined the ramp's design, Argraves stated: "In preparing the design both horizontal end vertical geometry were , controll­ing factors. Two vertical "controls are Immediately evident. Tlieso are the clearances requii'ed over tho railroad tracks and tliat ro-qulrcd over the relocated west­bound roadway of Route 1,' The expressway grade, thus governed, affects grades and geometry of ramps and frontage roads be­cause of lateral controls,"

Argraves said tliat to concede-to Sullivan's proposal would re­sult In Increased financial costs, adversely, affect other area pro-crty owners and would in one Ih-alanco take more land away from Sullivan. .•

Stating that the matter had boon Intensely studied the com­missioner claimed that under the present sot-up both the town and slate would receive greater boh-otlts, which would offset- any hardship caused to an'Indlylduel property owner.

The iettor, which was dated August 1, was received by Clancy yesterday, wiio in turn notified Mr. Sullivan of its contents. The letter read as follows: "Dear Mr. Clancy:

In accordance with discussions held with you, Mr, Sullivan pttiji others on June 3,' 1955, In Efist Haven, a revlcvv of bur propdsoi design In the vicinity of' Mf, Sullivan's proporty has bee,n riiade, with particular attention being given to certain , speciflei recommendations , „of''the grioup with which we met. i,-';

"In preparing the design both horlzonlal and vertical- geometry were • controlling factors. . Two. vertical controls are Immediately, evident. Those are the clearances required 'over the railroad trackii and that required over.'the - ro--located westbound- roadway*" bi^ Route 1. The expressway gradeV thus governed,, affects" gritdes arid geometry of ramps • and-frontage roads because of lateral controls, Any change in any dn^' of the features will have a ma­jor effect on the; entire design I n " the.area.,' 'I'/'f', •'"'; ''lE(

Parental Prejudice The Town of East Haven is fortunate to

have so many civic minded citizens to spon­sor affairs to combat Juvenile delinquency and to provide numerous events for the youth of this town to expend their adolescent ener­gy.

These affairs are conducted by men who give generously of their time, with no thought of any'remuneration than that the kids will

However, there are times when parents are prone to interfere to the detriment of the pro­ject and to the youths involved. Some times such intrusion, caused mostly by prejudicial influence because their child is involved in the

This overall total is also as to an adult, great as the entire population of Connecticut Xhe damage to the respect that adolescents over the age of 21. are supposed to hold for serious miened

In many parts of the country instructions adults is irreparable. But another hurt is in-wiU be on a make-do basis, Close to 1,000,- burred. 000 ,grade schoolers will get only half-day education. Most of the others will sit in crowded schoolrooms — nearly two out of three in classes larger than the desirable size, which Is 30 pupils. About 33,000 school houses are still antiquated, one teach­er buildings. And, in East Haven, even base­ments will have to be used as classrooms.

Added to the increase in pupils, the shortage of housing facilities for them, is the fact that new teachers going into grade

' schools, are not enough to replace those who quit teaching last year, it alone handle the increase in pupil census. Only a few thousand extras are available to handle the new pupils and to replace temporary teachers.

Of all'lhose who study to become teachers, only 79 percent- of those trained as elemen­tary teachers and 56 percent of those trained to be high school teachers nctunlly take teaching jobs!

How does one expect a man, or woman, to become interested in juvenile activities, if they are to become targets of their actions or decisions committed during an affair conduct­ed for the well being of our youth.

No man, or woman, would want to volun­teer for anything if all they can expect is abuse and vilification for their efforts. True the majority of people respect them and are thiinkful a town has such citizens. Bui such tribute is usually silent—the abuse and vilifi­cation is hurled from leather lungs for the world to hear,

It couldn't get any worse. But it did. Conditions became so un­bearable, squads had their pro­fessional arm breakers, w h o would fracture arms, legs, fing­er, or anything else, on request of the victim.

That night we were moved from Camp Murphy to Billbld Prison to wait ship transporta­tion to Japan.

Oct. 4, the "Benjo Maru" set-sail from Manila Bay. (We had been aboard s'nce Oct. 1) I considered this ' a good omen, for on Oct. 4, 1939, I had set sail from San Francisco to meet this fate.

The Benjo Maru, not Its real name, hut baptized by Its 'cargo after the Japanese word for la­trine, was a small boat, not-ex­ceeding 1,200 tons. It was loaded to the PlimsoU line, w(th cool, on top of this coat was' Its hu­man cargo.

We were loaded Into two holds, one directly forward of the engine room—one directly aft. - I was forward. We were loaded In the following fashion. The first troops were lined tightly shoulder to shoulder against the bulkhead separating the boiler room •— the next troops pressed tightly against them, until in an area not ex­ceeding 40 feet by 60 feet they had jammed 700 troops, 500 more were jammed In the aft hold.

us. Our meals—one ration of rice

per day. Water, a third of a canteen every three days. It didn't take long, before , thirst took over. On the 13th day at sea, or rather night, some of the men h\ the middle of the hold got a hold of some sea water.

They went amok. Their cries were horrible — their actions worse. There was -no sleep for anyone that night. It was as black as ebony In the hold and all sense of direction was. lost.

•you could hear the screams of the tortured men — the savage smash of a canteen on an un-pi-oleclert skull — repealed and Vapssted until .the . bone vras cruthed and the canteen no longer gave off a metallic nng, but squished lofliy as It landed. Oh Clod, would dnyllgljt never come. When It did — three men wers dead. Murdered by their crazed mates,

Our troubles had just begun, Prior to this episode on the 11th day at sea tq be exact our 12 ship convoy rendezvoused with a 28 ship convoy, I'hey combined and we set out for Japan, Little known to us at the time, there was a ship with ,1,800 of our buddies aboard,

Aq 1 said oh the 14th day our troubles began. We were Jolted at m Id-morning by the explo­sion of a torpedo so close we thought^ we had been hit. This was the first ship to get hit. For the next eight days, tor­pedoes exploded with almost monotonous regularity. You couldn't spit in the China Sea without hitting a pig boat.

On the sixth day of the at­tack word had It four Amer­icans had been put aboard, sur­vivors of a ship that had been sunk. We didn't get to see them then. On the seventh we heard one died from exposure.

Conditions on the Benjo Maru became Increasingly worse. The heat, lack of water and the salty food wos taking its toll. Every morning bodies were lifted to the deck to be thrown Into the sea, Onr air supply had been considerably- lessened by the fact that the Japs had bat­tened down our hatch so that In event of a strike we would be doomed.

Living conditions became sc filthy that the body lice we car­ried aboard couldn't stand It! They dlfed. Yet humans were ex­pected to survive? We knew our survival was of no great con­cern to our captors.

At night there was no sleep. As we He there in the stifling heat, our ears tuned to the ping of the searching sonar of American submarines, we wore possessed with one- thought; when that torpedo hit. Oh God don't let it kill me outright, let mo feel the cool sea waters. Let me drown In their cold, green depths.

It Is safe to say, no man on that ship feared death. He only wished to bo cool once more before he died.

On the eighth day of the at­tack the Jap In command,of the convoy gave up trying to reach Japan, and steamed into- Hong Kong. Here we: stayed for. three days, until a flock of B-24's gave us a severe going over,

I'll never forget the attack. It was mid afternoon, and I was seated with my back to the hatch talking to a Marine named GliUs, who had a metal rosary hung from his neck. GIl-lis glanced upwards through Ihe cracks In the hatchway, his eyes bulged and In a movement quicker than the eye - could fol­low the beads were from around his neck and In his hands. I turned and looking through the crack, saw ,27 graceful sUver outlines gliding towards us.

After that attack,-we took to sea once "more. The first morn­ing out the three survivors of the sunken ship joined us. We were shockedl They were men we hod left in Billbld. How did they get here.

They told us the day after we left, they were herde.d aboard a ship and sent to meet us at the rendezvous. Eagerly we asked for friends we left at the . prison hospital.. Our fears were confirmed—they .went down with the ship — 1796 men.

It seemed strange they were gone, for In leaving them at Billbld we thought they had It made and It would be only a matter of time until the Yanks landed at Luzon and recovered them. There was Yankevitch, the big, handsome blonde from Kan­sas; Carroll, the tough Irishman from Massachusetts; Peterson, the erudite Swede from Min­nesota; Wynn, Moore, Garland, Sobleski, Garcia, MatusowskI, and. a host of others whose

names are now lost In the cur­tain drawn by a decade of years.

For three days and nights we race along the coast of China, then we hit the open sea on a rough, stormy -night. Come morning we were off the coast of Taiwan (Formosa), and by noon we w,cre anchored.

For the next 10 days our routine was the same. We lay locked In the harbor during the It seemed we will never get off day — moved to sea at night, the ship—then on. November 8, exactly 39 days since we board­ed the Benjo Maru we were put ashore.

Our two months stay In Tai­wan was like a vacation. Al­though we didn't get much of a variety as far as diet went, we got all of the rich golden rice they grew there we could eat. Then on the morning of Jan­uary 12, 1945, we were aroused. It was still dark, and the win­ter chill, (It gets cold, In For­mosa in the winter) bit through the blankets we, had wrapped around us.

Smokey Joe, .our Jap com­mander, told us we would leave camp at sun-up to embark for Nippon-go Land, On arriving at the docks we had disembarked from two months before, we spotted the huge Melbourne Maru tied alongside. We never dreamed we'd be put aboard that luxury liner. We were.

The voyage to Japan was rel­atively uneventfuL A submarine attack occasionally but nothing like the one during our Fqrmo-san trip which Incidentally claimed 37 ships, allowing only the Benjo Maru and two others to make the trip safely.

On January IB, we arrived at Mogll, In the Island of Kyoshu. On the seventeenth of January, , with only the clothes on our back to protect us against the howling snowstorm we were put ashore. And these clothes, mind you were Issue^ for tropical liv­ing.

Once ashore we were herded Into a huge warehouse, which we sooned named the "Icebox." For the next three days this was our home. No central heat­ing here — not even any in­dividualized heating. We cow­ered together like animals, de­pending on our body heal to keep us from freezing to death In the sub-treczIuK weather.

Our meals consisted of cold boxes of steamed rice. It didn't take long tor pneumonia to rav­age through our ranks. Luckily I ewiapcd it there. On the fourth morning, I was singled out, to­gether with 149 others and marched lo the raHroad station* It was snowing again.

An hour after our arrival we boarded the troln for a 58 hour journey to northern Honshu. The only time we got off that train was at Tokyo, and our vis-It there was cut short by an air raid, but we were issued two blankets per man and a British Army greatcoat for protection against the winter cold.

As the sirens walled their banshee-llke warning through the early dark of- that Winter evening, we were hustled Into another train and were off, Des­tination unknown—and we cared less.

The nextmorning we awoke to see the landscape heavily coated with snow. During the day as we chugged further and further northward, the snow alongside the traclc grew • deeper and deeper. By ttie time It became dark again, the snow was higher than the windows of the car.

During the night we listened as the engine labored still furth­er north. Sometimes, the burden became too great for the spunky locomotive and It slid to a halt, only to move on again in a mat­ter of an hour or so.

Sometimes the locomotive pre­vailed over the elements with­out stopping. Dragging Its skid­ding, sliding train of cars Into the night.

The next morning we raced through banks of snow higher than the cars. All that day, all we -saw were glistening walls of white outside the window, and then just before dark we cama to a halt In SendaL

IJown fdiir runs in tlie first Inning, the tlremoii were never able lo make up the deficit and were on Ihe wrong end: of the 7-.t (IntI score. , ,

Anderson started for ihe buffs, and started himself downhilT by wnlkln* the leadotf man, Tor-ciio.

. Win 8lxth Strnight In a loosely played ^hali game

Monday night. Weeping Willows eked mil a', 10-B viqloiy over MelcalCs Drug, but not before the pharinacisis threw a scare into the resiaurateurs.

.lumping inio a 9-0 lead in the first inning, that saw.I^ men go to bnt. Weopinij Willows seemed on their way to an easy victory - howevei'—they only managed to score one more tally after that while MelcaiCs scoi-ed eight limes,

Rny Freed .stnrto;; t i,; ( . . ' sh­ed for the apothecaries and It sceitiod lie; wr.i in Jor n i>i^,^-less beating thai would only ha i l if he were relieved or ii grew loo dark to play.

Torelio led off with a single. Porto followed with another nnd then Pascerella drove hpnie Tor­elio with his bingie. Porto scor­ing on the overthrow home, I^elis doubled to sfore Pascer-el la; Majeski and Panlco walk­

ed and Let Is scored when Pao. Illlu war «afc on an e i ior . f i e e d got Ihe nexl Uvii bnttors, then 'I'orello wn.'< Imck at the plate and ho again singled scoring Mnjeski. Porto was .info after he struck out and Zoccano dropped the third strike; Pat-cereiin singled lo score Rocco, wlio had reached on a fielder't choice, Ihen Letis singled lo score Torelio and Porto. Maleskl hit a long drive lo deep center and a leaping one handed slab by Eidredge ended Freed's nightmare.

The Druggists' came hack in their linlf to score, three times oft Panlco. PaoiUlo was safe on an error, ttien after one-out , Virgullo and ' Orteco v/alked to load the bases. F.recd singled In Faoiillo, and Eidredge scored Virgullo and Grieco with his hit.

The Willows scored once In the second on Peolllto's .singio, a slolen base and a passed ball,

Panlco retired the pharmacitis in order In Ihe last of the sec­ond and Freed . had no trouble getting the side out In Ihc top of the tlilrd. Bui tlie hollom of the third was enough to give Pat Blondl and Rnwicigh Graves Ihe D.T.s,

Virgullo walked, Gileco was safe pn an error, Freed ground­ed out, Eidredge walked, an­other oul, Zoccano walked, forc­ing Virgullo home, Plscatcill walked, forcing In Grieco with the fifth run. At this point It was evident that Panlco didn't have it anymore and in came Fraiik MaJeskI to relieve Pan­lco who had pitched (wo balls to Paolillo.

MaJeskI walked Paollilo, forc­ing in another run, and Ihen

score 10-7, He got Virgullo to hit back l o the mound lo end the Inning.

Freed now luid conipiuic con­trol , of his pilches and""rcti) r;d tlie Wecpln;j Willows liatt»rs without any trouble In the fourth, but Majeski gave up an­other rtlnVln the boltdm half on OriecO's double and a wild pitch. -

In the final inning Torelio singled after one was hut, and after iiiovinK around to third was out at play at the pinto. MnJeskI oiwned the Jnsl of the tronie with a walk lo Plscnlelll, but struck out the noxl two batters and made the fourth batter of Ihe Inning ground into a force oUl at shortstop.

Velrone N o ifjis Meicairs Bobby VcU'one, pitching ace of

the Riverside Fire Deiiartnicnt who lias been obsent for the Inst several games, l-eturned to oc-lion Friday night nnd aceonip-llshed lhn?c things:

I. He pitched Ihe first no-hIt, no run game of the season; 2: tiic second no hitter of the seo-Sfin and 3 : He cndi^ Rlvensldos five game losing streak.

Themselves the victims of Larry Hail's no-hltter Wednes­day night, the FlrciiMn retnllal-ed in no uncertain fashion by downing Metcolf's Drug store 4-0.

Melcolf's who could have used liny Freed both Friday night and Mnbdoy night, decided to gamble and ui^ Eidredge in-steod. Tills was Eidredge' fir.si try at pitching. He did well un­til the third Iming, when River­side scored the r'ecidihg run.

Paulsen led off for the fire­men by walking; Velrone singl­ed, sending Paulsen lo tiiird, then Willi one out, Kaiper grounded to short scoring Paul­sen. PanagroRsI singled lo score Velrone. That ended the scoring for Ihe time being, hut as events later proved, this was enough.

Velrone was only In Irouliio once, and that was In the fiflli Inning Eldrldgc led off nnd

sioU second, and third, before. Velrone had finUhcd with Mes­sina, tlie next batti?r. Then widi Eidredge perched on the third Sack, Messina hit sliarpiy hack to the mound. Velrone fielded the smash cl>!anly and chasing Eidredge back to third, threw out Messina at first.

Thoi play .seemed to give Bobby added confidence and he struck oiil the next two bailers.

Wyneschenk scored In the fourth for niverslde and Domiy Stenliam scored In the .sixth when ho was singled Itomn by Vetrone.

In pitching the first no-liit-no-run-gamo of the Babe Ruth League this season, Bobijy struck oul 10, walked only one, nnd liad one error commuted be­hind him.

Eidredge struck out four, hut walked eight and gove up three hits nnd hit one batter (Velrone on ip.«.s). ,''' The line ups: .

you can see a Pontiac! And your own judgment is right in line with the experts. Pontiac's smartly distinctive combina­tion of long, clean lines, Twin-Streaked hood and Vogue Two-Toning is gener­ally acknowledged to be the major style advance of the year.

>to those children who a r e blind from other causes such a s Injury and Infection,

raruii ts* Il^jlo Our responsibility is not alone

to those children afflicted with blindness bu t to their parents who a re laced with liie task of bringing lip a blind child to live a s /no rma l a lite as possible. T h e growing realization of this need hOB been observed by field work-

This has led to the developmbrit o f i a P r e - S c h o o l Ins t i tu te , a t t he Oak Hill School In Hartford.

Highland School Hodge Podge Not Architect's Fault

n y I'lij-llls PloiMl Soiiiulhnos a casual remark

will elicit surprising results from unexpected directions. "Enjoyed our visit to Highland, Sdiool last week, but we're

wndorlng If the archi tec t wlio designed the building wasn ' t Born 'J'hirty Years Too Soon -ta lk about spli t- levels!" we quipped In ur F e b r u a r y 24th Foxon column. And for once, t he column got resul ts - a pro­tes t from former Supt . of Schools William E. Gillls in a " r e tu rn -ma l l " let ter sent from Hyann l s , ' Mass.

Tu rns ou t Highland School Is a pr ime example of w h a t hap­pens when yoii tack on rooms to an exist ing building. " I t took mo about a year to find my way around In tha t building," admits Mr. Gillls, adding "Please don't blome the architect ."

Wi th information he provided plus help from George Adamec, w e unear thed the facts. The school was originally constructed In 1917 and contained two class­rooms and two basement rooms. Came the building boom in the 20's, and . tow more rooms were cnstructed to tiio r ea r In 11)22.

As prosperi ty Increased, a four-room addition was built In front In 1929, making ten class­rooms (including two basement

classrooms) and two additional, I'ooms used by the custodian and PTA.

Use of the basement rooms was discontinued in 1929, Mr. Gillls recalls, and "six or seven years ago w e even had four v a ­cant classroogis in t h a t school." He points u t t ha t the width of the lot caused the archi tec t to plan the additions to conform to the original s t ruc tu re .

'Wo thought It might be tun for some of the old-t imer 's to recall a couple f classes t h a t were listed in the^ School News Graduat ion N u m b e r s which were loaned to us by Mr. Adamac.

Class officers for 1926 were Anna Kwieraga, president; Hel­en ,Karbowskl, vice president; Mary Christina, secretary, and Louis Alberlno, t reasurer . F r e d Tlrella, the valedictorian, r e ­ceived the Civic Society's r e ­ward for being " the pupil who

has taken the greates t Intcre.st In and made t he most progress In all school, work." Other stu4"' dents Included Joseph Fojlo, Joseph ICarbowskI, Nlckolas Mtt'^zola, M a r g a r e t Connal, Lucy

1 (ii; umss nioiio was "Un* ward;" the clas.s flower, the Anif?rlcan Beauty Rose; the rins.s colorn were green and gold. Does tha t bring bock memor ­ies?

Th,; yearbook for 1928 Is a much "slicker" edition complete with pictures. The class wos composed of six girls and tour hoys, unidentified In the photo-grapli. T h a t year, Solvatnrs Folio covered himself with glory. He received the Civic society award and rolled up a perfect a t tendance . He also won the ti t les of Quietest Boy, nr lgh les t Boy, Most Generous Boy, Most Studloous Boy, Class Grind (boy) Cla.ss Baby, (boyi Done .Most lor School and the Most Bashful Boy. (Julte a record.

For llio boys, William Sur -prenant was the Best S in jc r , WItllcsl, Class Orator and Class­iest. A r t h u r I'lombino was the Cla.i.H Sport , Best Doncer, Best Nnlurcd and Handsomest Boy, while Pe te r Massa was the Most Talkat ive.

For the girls, Jessie Buist niso maintained perfect o t t end-anco, plus being named Best .Singer, Most Generous Girl and Mo.st Studious. Anna Capella was the Class Sport, Best Dancer, Brightest, Best Na tu red and Most Popular . F rances Ben-nl.son was the Witt iest Girl, Quietest, Hand.somest, Class Ornlor and Done Most for School.

So many changes have come with the yeai-s. Crowded to ca­pacity. Highland School will ogaln see double sessions this coming term. Miss Elizabeth Ritchie, the school principal, will have to become acquainted with seven new teachers. Bacic to work to keep everyone com­fortable will be W. G. Haley, or "Gus" as he's affectionately called, the school custodian.

Architecturally, it 's a split-level school; but scholastlcally,' it yields to no one. I t s tands as good, solid proof that fine teachers can t u r n out well-educated ' yungsters In out­moded buildings If given full opportunity.^

'Light" Snack

For Ducks

Cominff back from BalcsWIle the other niftht I noticed a power­ful liRht a t Whi ter Finher'fl Duck Farm. Seemed to be shining out oTer the water ,

I stopped to ask Whitcy w h a t went on. He took me down to his pond and pointed out a 200-watt bulb —rifcged up on a pole about three feet above the surface. The l ight was a t t r a c t i ng thousands of ireects for the ducke to cat .

Seemed kind of odd to me—but Whitey was enthusiast ic . "Bes t (dca I ever heard of," he claims. "Keeps the feed bill down—and

the bug population, too. Why do you suppose I never thought of i t before?"

From where I sit, Whitcy's th« type who's always ready to pio­neer a worth-while new.trick. Me, I stick to old methods. J u s t a case of personal feeling, I guess . . . like the way you may prefer cofTce with meals while 1 always prefer a tradit ional glass of beer. Not that I'd claim you're icronj;—re­spect for the other man 's opinion is my "guiding light."

A crowd of more than 1,000 adults and eblldren turned out to wnlch the 22 races put on to determine the eventuAl winners. Each driver hod his backers shoutlnK from the sidelines urg­ing him on to win. When a bent was over, there were a mixture of shouts ot Joy and groans of anguish.

During the afternoon ot fierce competition only one rhubarb developed and this perhaps could bo attributed to a misunder­standing of the rules by the in­terested spectators.

The incident occurred In the third trial heat, when Judges Al Holcombe, Thomas GagllardI and Francis Walsh disqualified

winning driver due t« tho t«ct that the young.ster had In­curred a rule infraction by driv­ing his vehicle acro.sa both white lines that divided the lanes. The ground rules laid down were that If,0 driver went across one ot tho parallel lines be was al­right, however, if he crossed both lines and Into his oppon­ents Inne he was disqualified regardless If tho violation had anything to do with the final outcome of the race.

The prize winning cars wore sponsored by; DziublnskI, car No. 25, Carroll Cut Rate; Cel­cntano, car No. 17, Grave's Sport Shop; Jonathan Smith, car No. 8, Carbone Bros.; Rorinld Ander­son, car No. 26, Gift Haven; Michael ModzelewskI, cur No., 19, Don's Roller Rink.

I swore by Spock I'd hold my temper and direct In a mature, responsible fashion. And so I did. The hand that rocked the cradle was firm and ^gentle. A couple of years later it started to shake.

There came a day when a three and a four-year-old were told'off in white hot anger. 1 stormed put of their room, shut the door emphatically behind me, and stood regaining, my breath only, to hear the younger boy say, "You know, if we just tried, we could get her^ really mad."

Other high resolves have speeded along that'same highway paved with good intentions. We were never going to have din­ner while looking at TV. But when our seven-year-old had to stay in bed for several weeks and needed company and TV, it socmcd, we had, what passed for dinner on trays to the ac­companiment of heroos-to-the-rescue and advertising dlvertlse-monls.

Probably it's just superstition, but I'm beginning to feel like the caterpillar in,a story I, just heard. The caterpillar was crawling ^along on ^ this edge of a leaf as a butterfly flew past and soared up into the high sky. "By Jove," said the caterpillar, 'You'd never get nie up in one of

Red Cross Swimming Schedule Announced

Parents are urged to note the, following schedule which has been set for the various groups taking part in the swimming course being sponsored by the East Haven Branch of the Red Cross at Fcnton's Beach from Aug. 8 through Aug. 19, Mrs. A. P. Sanford announced this week.

The schedule'U as follows: Life savers and swimmers at 9 am.; Intermediate at 9:30 a.m.; Beginners, aged nine and 10 years old, 10:30 a. m.; beginners, aged 11 and 12 years old 11:30 a.m.

The'~ above schedule is to be adhered to to avoid confusion, and congestion at the beach, Mrs. Sanford sold.

Tho course Is being taught by • Roberta DeLay, Joanne - Leary, and Connie Kenes, three certified Red Cross instructors, and a group of volunteer ladles from the Momauguln area will assist in checking the groups.

Unless accompanied, by an adult, the children are urged to leave the beach Immediately fol­lowing their .clo.'jsos. This pro­gram is made possible througli tlie contributions received from tiio United Fund—Red Cross | of Labor • allowed compensation

'Drive which Is held every year for an employee hurt on his way in the month of October., to a snack shop for a, c\ip of

coffee. The department ruled that the employee was not off the premises because recognized breaks In daily work hours are now so generally accepted.

Sounds a bit like a sign I once saw notifying: "No loitering un­less employed by this company!"

* * * With the hot, moist air crowd­

ing us these days • and, believe me, with apologies to thr:.' Color­ado Chamber of Commerce, it's better than hot, dry air .sucking the moisture out of you - I tried to find out where to place tho blamo.

The ancient Romans discover­ed the culprit, Slrlus, the Dog Star, the brightest fixed star in the heavens, rising up with the sun during this period ofhisat, drought and pestilence - hence "the dog days."

What's more they did some­thing about it. They sacrificed red dogs as propitiatory offer­ings. Perhaps shaggy dog stories would do.

But then science blew their whole theory up. They say there is no scientific foundation for the cosmic affair between the Sun and SIrius producing all that heat. Also, while they were about it, they exonorated all dogs from the unpopuUr name by showing statistics of mone cases of "madness",, or rabies, among dogs In early Spring and late Fall, than during the hottest mid-summer days- •

However, even they admit it is hot for, about 40 days of oach year. And Almanac makers, without sclentlric blessing, wipe the sweat? off their hands and still label them "Dog Days."

Frank Clancy Resigns From Democratic Town Committee Citizens' Conuniltee Formed To Promote Political Procedures

NewOrganization Supplants Citizen For Cood Gov't.

A new political study organi­zation has been formed in East Haven by a group of citizens in­terested in seeking "some means of focusing intelligent public attention on the needs of East Haven,*' it was anounced today.

THIS infant organization is en­titled, "The Citizens Commit­tee," and will attempt to better p^erform the intents behind the founding of the now defunct East Haven Citizens for' Good Government group.

The new . committee, headed by an executive group composed of Anthony DeMayo, Lillian Flynn, Robert Hall, Raymond Lurie,: Thomas' McMahon, Wil­liam Muehl, John O'Donnell and Josephine Orlando, does not seek to set itself up as a cru­sading organization. Its purpose according to the letter sent out by the executive committee, is to unite people who are Inter­ested in the study and Improve­ment of. municipal. government.

The executive tjody also states that It will not seek to affiliate Itself with any one party, but will hold out.membership't(^ all those, rogardle^ of party or political office/ who.-are willing to study the workings'of'town govermnent' '((hd' the problems Involved.

"Its purpose was to call at­tention to, the many weaknesses In town government and consol idatc what its members felt to be a widespread demand for the improvement of political proce­dures and personnel. Several or­ganizational sessions were held and an open (neeting was held in the Hagenian Memorial Libr­ary.

"Attendance at that open meeting was so small that the originating group could foresee no way of turning the organiza­tion into ''a representative and independent movement. Subse­quent recruiting efforts met with little response.

"It seemed clear to the foun­ders that popuiai- discontent with present conditions In East Haven fild not imply a general willingness to devote lime and energy to civic improvement. The organization as originally concei\-ed was abandoned.

"The concerns which -moti vated the original group were not dissipated by this disap­pointment. The problems which produced them have continued to grow in number and propor­tion. Consequently some of the
