STEVENS SWIM FOR HEALTH WEEK Fir.st Selectman .lumes .). Sullivan rcniiiuls us tliat this week, the period from .luue 20 to June 25, is being observed throughout, America as National Swim For Health Week. This is the fourteenth ainiunl observance and the campaign is worthy of general support. In a letter to the First Selectman Mr. Martin .Stern, executive director of the Swim For Health Association with headquarters in New York City, explains that the purjjoses of the speoinl week's observance are to increase the mimber of erson participating in th sport and recreation of .swimniing; to help cut down the number of tragic deaths by drowning through an educational campaign directed towards the youngsters throughout the country; and for the purification of polluted waters. Goverinnent statistics, gathered during the war, show thai only 10 to 12 percent of our population know how to swim; 12 to 35 percent can flounder in the water for three to five minutes ip an emergency; the balance cannot, swim at all. We must constantly publicize' the dangers of swimming in unprotected waters, particularly in abandoned quarries. We must use every nleans at our command to bring to the attention of the children, as well as the adiUts, the "value of swimming to health in safety" under the protection of qualified American Red Cross lifeguard.s. Located, as we are, on the shores of Long Island Sound with bathing beaches not far from our doors, we in East Haven need even more than those in inland towns to heed the call sounded in the warnings and teachings of the Swim For Health Association. As chief executive in Our Town First Selectman Sullivan urges special emphasis be placed on safe swimming not only this week but throughout the sca.son ahead. He urges that as many youngsters as possible enroll in the Red Cross classes at Momauguin Beach. FIVE POLIO PRECAUTIONS ARE LISTED FOR PARENTS Wiirnlng thnt the 1949 polio acn- son is "just around the covner," the National Fomulnllon for Infantile Paralysis loilay Usuetl a list of pre- cautionary measures lo be observed by those in charge of children during the epidemic danger period which usually runs from May through October, ^reaching its peal. diM'ing the hot, niid.sunu.V>r months.

THE GREATEST STORY* EVER TOLD We have just finished reading Pulton .OiU'sler's "The Greatest Story Ever Told" and see now why this book is now at the top of the Best-Sellet- list, This book"sh6vild:bq on,the "inuBt!'Hst of your summer rea'ding. It will give you the lift you need to face these feiisse hiiddie-of-the twentieth-centiiry days. Beading this faithfully iiresented story of •Tesu.s Of Nazareth cannot but prove profHable to soul andjnind. "The Greatest Story Ever Told" is receiving the enthusiastic unqualified praise of devout Catholics and Protestants alike, and for good reason. It sets forth fully and exactly what happened during those thirty-three years of the life of .lesus as recorded in books of Mat- thew, Mark, Luke and .John in the New Testament, written in beauti- ful, simple language, it tells the story of the greatest life ever lived. Mr. Oursler's whose radio scripts under the .same title, have won millions of listeners, made two trips to Palestine to gain materials for this book, and in the doing of this he himself joined the ranks of tl-ue believers. It was the Jewish-Rabbi, Solomon B. Freehof of the PittJiburgh Temple, whose remarks that the unspoken scandal of our times Wfis the hiddeix fact that Bible-reading had been largely given up in America, that gave Mr. Oursler the first urge to write about .Je.sus. He has made no attempt rationalize or to seek a symbolism. The story as it was set down by the four apostles has been written again for the people of this generation. That the old, story is ever new and that the world hungers yet for the simple truths of that story, is proven by the tremendous demand throughout America for'copies of this book. Mr. Oursler is a senior editor of Readers' Digest, author of several books of fiction and non fiction and a number of plays. The writhig of "The reatest Story Ever Told" began'in 1935 and in that time its author experienced a spiritual rebirth and turned from agnosticism to devout faith. ^ ^ '• »u. AN ANNIVERSARY OF AN ANCIENT CHURCH Christ Episcopal Church observed its IGOth annivensary last Sunday and the ocasion was widely celebrated in the parish. We learn from the Christ Church Bulletin, "The oiee of Christ Church" that the site upon which the church edifice now stands, was contributed by Mr. Samuel Forbes and deeded to the Parish on .Tune 18, 1789. • It was only four years previous to that date that Bishop Sea- bury was consecrated as the first Episcopal Bishop of Connecticut. And Bishop Seabury, be it remembered, was the first American Bishop. • In thatv year, 1789, the date the church site was given by Mr. Forbes, General George Washington was chosen to be tlic first Presi- dent of the United States. It was also in that same year that the first Episcopal edition of the Book of Common prayer, was printed. Writing in the Church Bulletin the present rector, Rev. Alfred Clark, recalls that "ten years ago, as we celebrated the 150th an- niversary, we looked into the future w i t h a gi-eat yearning for a Parish Hall. The hope has beeir realized in the splendid undercroft hall which supplies our present needs. Also in this period new heat- ing has been installed, extra land bought at the rear of the Church, and the necessary renovation of the Rectory accomplished. With the exception of a small mortgage on the Rectory, which is being amortiz- ed yearly, the church is free of debt, a notable achievement. "With special thanksgiving for the heritage placed hi our hands by the worshippers'down 100 years, our anniversary would not be complete without some clear vision of the future. What sliould this ideal be! "Should it not be a Church, not only possessing hut appreciat- ing and fully using the great heritage received — a Church loyal to the Faith and lo the unity of the Body --a Church in which our spiritual knowledge, experience and devotion become increasingly more more real - ^ a Clmrch in which ever-y member has ^the spirit of Christian Service, using his girts in witness for Christ—* a church which is missionary to the core, with a Vision as wide as the world ' which God so loved." . . _ j.. i _ _ I.. CUT OUT AND KEEP FOR REFERENCE Town Would Get $193,000 Under Bowie's Plan To the Editor of the East Haven News: '5fou, no doubt, are well acqiialn- ted with the excellent cooperation and progress that the non-parUsan Committee on the School Building Program of East Haven has made In these past months. lilts group has worked wllh great fervor In hopes to better the school .conditions and buildings lor our children of the Town of East Ha- ven, and have worked with each other regardless •• of political affili- ations. They realize the number of children enrolled In , out presehti schooUssy'stEm" arid the possibility In the future of large Increases, and so have made their plans ac- cordingly. I feel that at this time the townspeople of East Haven should become aware of the programs presented In Hartford for the pro- gress of education and school build- ings In the State of Connecticut. Many of them are perhaps acquain- ted with the fact that the Bowles Plan for higher education Is one of soundness and progresslveness. It Is upheld by PTA organizations throughout the State of Connecti- cut and people who are well ac- quainted with the problems of ed- ucation. . He has asked the present Con- gress and Senate of the State of Connecticut to allow h i m $18, 000, 000 to fulfill his program. He has pointed out that this can be done by means of bond Issue, and It can- not be denied that It Is one of the soundest of business principles to use this method to accomplish the program. The Rlepubllcan organizations have claimed that the accomplish- ments necessary can be done with $7,000,000, and that amount should be taken from the general funds of the. State and not handleld through bond Issue. Anyone acquainted with the bus- iness of carrying on State Govern- ment will re!\llze that the general the current expenses and cannot stand for the $7,000,000 being taken from It for a school program, I feel, as most parents do, that good schools and qualified educa- tors are most necessary tor the fu- ture program and Intelligence of our children, and that the sound- ness of the Bowles program should allow for the bond Issuance on the basis Is of $18,000,000 for the above- mentlo(ied' reasons. Where educa- tion Is hivolved aiid the future of children depend upon It, organiza- tions should think twice before making a political football of same. While a minority has every rea- son to question'the plans of the majority of vice versa, .where' the program is sound, there should be ample discussion and every effort made to complete the program. We all realize that the program prepared for the Town of East Haven by our committee will ne cessltate the raising of a large amount of money to^^atry, out Ita plansi'Tso we- shouldJteDp .inmlrid that under the Bowles prograth the amount of money allocated to East Haven by the State would be great- ly Intreased over that of the pre- sent time and would be greatly In- creased over that of the present time and would make our burden Circus Coming To East Haven Friday, July 8 Hunt Bros.-Eddy Bro.s, Circus Combined will give two pertormnn- ccs In East Haven on Friday, July 8, This Circus on Its flfty-iievcnth annual tour, Is one that needs no Introduction In this community. Es- tablished In 1802, this, the oldest sole-owned' circus In America, has been built upon tiie foundation of "Cleanliness and Quality." On this basis Mr. Hunt has built his show from a few horses nnd wagons to one of the most finely equipped motor cavalcades on tour. According to the representative, Mr, Hunt has gathered together the performance of his entire career. There will bo a host of arenlc stars, including acrobats, who artists, equilibrists, aerial performers, Jug- glers, clowns, etc. In tho trained animal displays will be seen the Liberty and High School horses and ponies, elephants, dogs, chlmpan- zles, and sea lions.

M, HaganiBn 1 ANCIENT MILL NOW AN ANTIQUE SHOP Fulling mill dates back To 1706 And Is One Of Oldest Struc- tures In Town East Haven's Old Mill at the Junction ot Main Street and Route One Cut-OfI; Saltonstall Parkway, Is one of the town's best known landmarks. It dates back to 1700, when the early colonists built a fulling mill on the banks of Farm River near the foot of Lake Salton- stall. For generations the Old Mill served the needs of East Haven and surrounding countrysld. Its crude millstones being turned' by the churning waters of the town's well known stream that winds down through Totoket and Foxon. When modern Inventions relega- ted the ancient mill to Idleness, and It was In dangr of.going the way of other oldtlme relics, It was acquired back In August, 1941 by Mr, Nils Ahlberg who has restored the structure and turned It Into a popular antique shop. This sea.50n Mr. Ahlberg has started to hold auc- tion beside the mill where shade trees shelter the buyers as they sit In comfort beside the mill stream and see valuable antiques placed on the auction block. Mr. Ahlberg Is well known as a dealer In antiques, and has found the Old Mill Ideally suited tp his business. Shortly after he had acquired the ,01d Mill, and before he had time to make many alterations, war broke out and Mr. Ahlberg answered the call to service by Joining the Sea Bees. He was In the service, in con- struction work for a year and eight months, a large part of which was spent InAlaska. When he returned In the fall of 1944, he again began the restoration of the Old Mill. Mr. Ahlberg is one of four broth- ers, the sons of a Swedish Cabinet Maker of the old school. ' The older Ahlberg came to New Haven In 1892, and at the time of his death was known as the dean of antique dealers In New Haven. The four sons followed in his foot- steps, and NUs, decided to settle In East Haven to carry on the family tradition. He has rebuilt the foundations of the ancient mill, redlslgned the ex- terior and constructed a handsome fireplace and chhnney at one side. The interior, which contains three very large rooms;have been attrac- tively reflnlshed and made Into into display and work rooms. Here he has assembled a most complete collection of antiques so much 'sought after by visitors to New England. Artists and photograph- ers frequently visit the place to paint and take pictures of the old strticture and the picturesque ston- arch bridge nearby. The grounds are spacious and border upon Farm River. When Mr. Ahlberg first acquired the old structure it had been con- demned and was well on the way to demollslon. Today It has become the headquarters of a growing an- tique business. In; addition. Mr. Ahl berg is marketing a furniture pol ish, which is much in demand lor preservation of furniture pianos and Old Place Will Be Scene Of Auctions This Season As Tourist Time Starts antiques.' The Old Mill has a most Interest- ing history. It was built on the site of the ancient Iron foundry the first industry located In Connecti- cut, which was established >n the later part of the 1600's when iron smelted from bog Iron brought down from North Haven, letter it became a grist mill, and was still turning out meal until the early days of the present century. After- ward it became a laundry, and still afterward had a brief career as a tea room. Then for a long time It lay quiet and unused, and falling Into a state of neglect. It was in this condition when Nils Ahlberg came along and decided to restore it. The mill stream was at one time much wider than It Is today and tradition has it that a ferry was kept here by Deborah Chldsey, wife of one of the early inhabitants. Governor Saltonstall had his resi- dence on the shores of the lake that bears his name. The old gov- ernor was not too well liked In the neighborhood, and it is said that Debrah Chldsey one day let the ferry boat upset, as she was ferry- ing the governor across, and the old fellow had to wallow ashore ^mong Deborah's ducks, A lane iwhich runs down hill from Main Street to Farm River carries the I name Deborah J^ane to this day.

S W I M FOR H E A L T H W E E K
Fir.st Selectman .lumes .). Sullivan rcniiiuls us tliat this week, the period from .luue 20 to J u n e 25, is being observed throughout, America as National Swim For Health Week. This is the fourteenth ainiunl observance and the campaign is wor thy of general support .
In a l e t t e r to the F i r s t Selectman Mr. Martin .Stern, executive director of the Swim For Health Association with headquar te r s in New York City, explains tha t the purjjoses of the speoinl week ' s observance a re to increase the mimber of erson par t ic ipa t ing in t h sport and recreation of .swimniing; to help cut down the number of t ragic dea ths by d rowning through an educational campaign directed t o w a r d s the youngs te rs th roughout the c o u n t r y ; and for the purif icat ion of polluted waters .
Gover innent statist ics, gathered du r ing the war , show thai only 10 to 12 percent of our population know how to swim; 12 to 35 percent can flounder in the water for three to five minutes ip an emergency; the balance cannot, swim at all.
W e m u s t constantly publicize' the dangers of swimming in unprotec ted waters , par t icu la r ly in abandoned quarr ies . We must use every nleans a t our command to b r ing to the at tent ion of the children, a s well as the adiUts, the " v a l u e of swimming to health in s a f e t y " unde r the protect ion of qualified American Red Cross lifeguard.s.
Located, as we are, on the shores of Long Is land Sound with bathing beaches no t far from our doors, w e in E a s t Haven need even more t h a n those in inland towns to heed the call sounded in the warnings and teachings of the Swim F o r Health Association.
As chief executive in Our Town F i r s t Selectman Sullivan urges special emphasis be placed on safe swimming not only this week bu t th roughout the sca.son ahead. He urges t h a t as many youngsters as possible enroll in the Red Cross classes a t Momauguin Beach.
FIVE POLIO PRECAUTIONS ARE LISTED FOR PARENTS
Wiirnlng thnt the 1949 polio acn-son is "just around the covner," the National Fomulnllon for Infantile Paralysis loilay Usuetl a list of precautionary measures lo be observed by those in charge of children during the epidemic danger period which usually runs from May through October, ^reaching its peal. diM'ing the hot, niid.sunu.V>r months. The five easy-to-follow health rules for children arc:
1. Avoid crowds luid places where close contact with other persons Is likely.
2. Avoid over-fatigue caused by too active piny or exercise, or Irregular hours.
.'I. .\vuid swimming In polluted water. XIsc only benchos or public pools declared safe by local health authorities.
i, .Avoid sudden chilling. Kcatove wet shoes nnd clothing at once and keep extra hinnhets and heavier clothing handy for sudden weather changes.
• 5. Observe the golden rule of personal cleanliness. Keep food
tightly covered and safe from IlieH or other Insects. Oarbagc should be tightly covered and, if other dis-posal facilities arc lacking, it should he burled or burned. I
Tlie 'National Foumlation also listed the following symptoms, of. inrantilu paralysis: headache, nausea or upset stomach, n\usc1o soreness or stilfness, and unexplained fever. Should polio strike In your family, call a dqctoi' immediately. Early diagnosis iind prompt trcnt-nienl by qualified medical persoitnci often prevent serious crippling, tho National roundntion |)oIntcd out.
Tlie organization, emphasized that fear and anNlcly should be held to a niiniipum. A calm, conll-dent aillludc Is conducive to health and recovery. ,Pnrcnls, It said, should remember that of all those striclvevt 50 per cent or more recover completely, \\)hile another 25 per cent ore left with only slight after elTects, ^ l '
If polio is actually diagnosed, contact the chapter of the National Foundation tor Infantile Paraly-sis serving your community. The chapter will pay that part of tho cost of care and treatment'which patient or family caiinot meet.
T H E G R E A T E S T STORY* E V E R TOLD
W e have jus t finished read ing Pu l ton .OiU'sler's " T h e Greates t S to ry E v e r T o l d " and see now why this book is now a t the top of the Best-Sellet- list,
This book"sh6vild:bq on , the " i n u B t ! ' H s t of your summer rea'ding. I t will give you the l i f t you need to face these feiisse hiiddie-of-the twent ie th-cent i i ry days. Bead ing this faithfully i i resented s tory of •Tesu.s Of N a z a r e t h cannot bu t prove profHable to soul a n d j n i n d .
" T h e Grea tes t Story E v e r T o l d " is receiving the enthusiast ic unqualified praise of devout Catholics and Pro tes t an t s alike, and for good reason.
I t sets fo r th fully and exact ly w h a t happened dur ing those th i r ty- three years of the life of .lesus a s recorded in books of Matthew, Mark , L u k e and .John in the New Tes tament , wr i t ten in beautiful, simple language, it tells the story of the greates t life ever lived. Mr. Ours ler ' s whose radio scr ipts unde r the .same t i t le, have won millions of l isteners, made two tr ips to Palest ine to gain mater ials for this book, and in the doing of this he himself joined the r a n k s of tl-ue believers.
I t was the Jewish-Rabbi , Solomon B . Freehof of the PittJiburgh Temple, whose remarks tha t the unspoken scandal of our times Wfis the hiddeix fact t ha t Bible-reading had been largely given up in America, t h a t gave Mr. Oursler the first u rge to wr i te about .Je.sus. He has made no a t tempt rat ionalize or to seek a symbolism. The s tory as it was se t down by the four apostles has been wr i t t en again for the people of this generat ion.
That the old, story is ever new and t h a t the wor ld hungers y e t for the simple t ru ths of t ha t s tory, is proven by the t remendous demand th roughou t America for 'copies of this book.
Mr. Ours ler is a senior edi tor of Reade r s ' Digest, author of several books of fiction and non fiction and a number of plays. The writhig of " T h e reatest S tory Ever T o l d " b e g a n ' i n 1935 and in t h a t time i ts au thor experienced a spir i tual rebir th and turned from agnosticism to devout faith.

A N A N N I V E R S A R Y O F A N A N C I E N T CHURCH
Christ Episcopal Church observed its IGOth annivensary last Sunday and the ocasion was widely celebrated in the parish.
We learn from the Christ Church Bullet in, " T h e oiee of Chris t C h u r c h " t h a t the site upon which the church edifice now s t ands , was contr ibuted by Mr. Samuel Forbes and deeded to the Parish on .Tune 18, 1789. •
I t was only four years previous to that date t h a t Bishop Sea-bury was consecrated as the f i r s t Episcopal Bishop of Connect icut . And Bishop Seabury, be it remembered, was the first American Bishop. •
In thatv year, 1789, the da te the church site was given by Mr. Forbes, General George Washington was chosen to be tlic first President of the United States. I t was also in tha t same y e a r t ha t the f irst Episcopal edition of the Book of Common prayer , was pr in ted .
Wr i t ing in the Church Bulletin the present rector , Rev. Alfred Clark, recalls that " t e n years ago, as we celebrated the 150th anniversary, we looked into the future w i t h a gi-eat yea rn ing for a Par i sh Hall . The hope has beeir realized in the splendid underc ro f t hall which supplies our present needs. Also in this period new heating has been installed, extra l and bough t a t the r e a r of the Church, and the necessary renovation of the Rectory accomplished. Wi th the exception of a small mortgage on the Rectory, which is being amort ized yearly, the church is free of debt, a notable achievement . " W i t h special thanksgiv ing for the heri tage placed h i our hands by the worsh ippers 'down 100 years, our anniversary would no t be complete without some clear vision of the future. W h a t sliould this ideal b e !
" S h o u l d it not be a Church, not only possessing hu t apprecia t ing and fully using the grea t heri tage received — a Church loyal t o the Fa i th and lo the unity of the Body - - a Church in which our spiri tual knowledge, experience and devot ion become increasingly more more real - ^ a Clmrch in which ever-y member has ^the spir i t of Christian Service, using his girts in wi tness for Christ—* a church which is missionary to the core, with a Vision a s wide as the world
' which God so loved." . . _ j . . i _ _ I..
CUT OUT AND KEEP FOR REFERENCE
Town Would Get $193,000 Under Bowie's Plan To the Editor of the East Haven News:
'5fou, no doubt, are well acqiialn-ted with the excellent cooperation and progress that the non-parUsan Committee on the School Building Program of East Haven has made In these past months.
l i l ts group has worked wllh great fervor In hopes to better the school .conditions and buildings lor our children of the Town of East Haven, and have worked with each other regardless •• of political affiliations. They realize t h e number of children enrolled In , out presehti schooUssy'stEm" arid the possibility In the future of large Increases, and so have made their plans ac cordingly.
I feel t h a t a t this time the townspeople of East Haven should become aware of the programs presented In Hartford for the progress of education and school buildings In the State of Connecticut. Many of them are perhaps acquainted with the fact t ha t the Bowles Plan for higher education Is one of soundness and progresslveness. I t Is upheld by PTA organizations throughout the State of Connecticut and people who a re well acquainted with the problems of education. .
He has asked the present Congress and Senate of the State of Connecticut to allow h im $18, 000, 000 to fulfill his program. He has pointed out t ha t this can be done by means of bond Issue, and It cannot be denied that It Is one of the soundest of business principles to use this method to accomplish the program.
The Rlepubllcan organizations have claimed tha t the accomplishments necessary can be done with $7,000,000, and that amount should be taken from the general funds of the . State and not handleld through bond Issue.
Anyone acquainted with the business of carrying on Sta te Government will re!\llze tha t the general
the current expenses and cannot stand for the $7,000,000 being taken from It for a school program,
I feel, as most parents do, t ha t good schools and qualified educators are most necessary tor the future program and Intelligence of our children, and tha t the soundness of the Bowles program should allow for the bond Issuance on the basis Is of $18,000,000 for the above-mentlo(ied' reasons. Where education Is hivolved aiid the future of children depend upon It, organizations should think twice before making a political football of same.
While a minority has every reason to ques t ion ' the plans of the majority of vice versa, .where' the program is sound, there should be ample discussion and every effort made to complete the program.
We all realize t h a t the program prepared for the Town of East Haven by our committee will ne cessltate the raising of a large amount of money to^^atry, out Ita plansi'Tso we- shouldJteDp . i n m l r i d t ha t under the Bowles prograth the amount of money allocated to East Haven by the State would be greatly Intreased over t h a t of the present time and would be greatly Increased over that of the present time and would make our burden

ANCIENT MILL NOW AN ANTIQUE SHOP Ful l ing mill dates b a c k To 1706
And Is One Of Oldest Structures I n Town
East Haven's Old Mill at the Junction ot Main Street and Route One Cut-OfI; Saltonstall Parkway, Is one of the town's best known landmarks. I t dates back to 1700, when the early colonists built a fulling mill on the banks of Farm River near the foot of Lake Saltonstall. For generations the Old Mill served the needs of East Haven and surrounding countrysld. Its crude millstones being turned ' by the churning waters of the town's well known stream tha t winds down through Totoket and Foxon.
When modern Inventions relegated the ancient mill to Idleness, and It was In dangr of .going the way of other oldtlme relics, It was acquired back In August, 1941 by Mr, Nils Ahlberg who has restored the structure and turned It Into a popular antique shop. This sea.50n Mr. Ahlberg h a s started to hold auction beside the mill where shade trees shelter the buyers as they sit In comfort beside the mill stream and see valuable antiques placed on the auction block. Mr. Ahlberg Is well known as a dealer In antiques, and has found the Old Mill Ideally suited tp his business.
Shortly after he had acquired the ,01d Mill, and before he had time to make many alterations, war broke out and Mr. Ahlberg answered the call to service by Joining the Sea
Bees. He was In the service, in con
struction work for a year and eight months, a large pa r t of which was spent InAlaska. When he returned In the fall of 1944, he again began the restoration of the Old Mill.
Mr. Ahlberg is one of four brothers, the sons of a Swedish Cabinet Maker of the old school. '
The older Ahlberg came to New Haven In 1892, and a t the time of his death was known as the dean of antique dealers In New Haven. The four sons followed in his footsteps, and NUs, decided to settle In East Haven to carry on the family tradition.
He has rebuilt the foundations of the ancient mill, redlslgned the exterior and constructed a handsome fireplace and chhnney a t one side. The interior, which contains three very large rooms;have been a t t r ac tively reflnlshed and made Into into display and work rooms. Here he has assembled a most complete collection of antiques so much
'sought after by visitors to New England. Artists and photographers frequently visit the place to paint and take pictures of the old strticture and the picturesque ston-arch bridge nearby. The grounds are spacious and border upon Farm River.
When Mr. Ahlberg first acquired the old structure i t had been condemned and was well on the way to demollslon. Today It has become the headquarters of a growing a n tique business. In; addition. Mr. Ahl berg is marketing a furniture pol ish, which is much in demand lor preservation of furniture pianos and

antiques. ' The Old Mill has a most Interest
ing history. I t was built on the site of the ancient Iron foundry the first industry located In Connecticut, which was established >n the later pa r t of the 1600's when iron smelted from bog Iron brought down from North Haven, let ter it became a grist mill, and was still turning out meal until the early days of the present century. Afterward it became a laundry, and still afterward had a brief career as a tea room. Then for a long time It lay quiet and unused, and falling Into a state of neglect. I t was in this condition when Nils Ahlberg came along and decided to restore it.
The mill stream was at one time much wider than It Is today and tradition has it t h a t a ferry was kept here by Deborah Chldsey, wife of one of the early inhabitants . Governor Saltonstall had his residence on the shores of the lake tha t bears his name. The old governor was not too well liked In the neighborhood, and it is said t ha t Debrah Chldsey one day let the ferry boat upset, a s she was ferrying the governor across, and the old fellow had to wallow ashore

FROM OUR MAri BAG
A CiTfZEN'S Rli&HTS Reprinted from The East Hampton News
Newspapermen all over the slate last week sat back In their DWivet chairs and took a long sigh of satisfaction as they read an account of a fellow member of the Fourth Estate In Torrlngton, who won the first round of an age-old battle with the Board of Education In that city.
William J. Donahue, state editor of the Waterbury Republican, and a resident of Torrlngton, was granted a writ of mandamus by Ouperlor Court, entitling him to look at the minutes of the meetings of the Torrlngton Board of Education. The board was directed by the court to permit Mr. Donahue to see the records or explain why not In court.
Previously, the secretary of the board, on four seperate occasions, refused to allow Mr. Donahue to look at the minutes of the board's meetings. Taking the matter up with the State Board of Education, the newsman was told that the records should be open 0 public Inspection, even If the prompting werei"mere curiosity."
Told of the stole board's letter, the Torrlngton board simply referred Mr. Donahue to Its previous refusal. : ^
Many .school boards—and other similar units of the town Eovernmenl—have the same attitude. They believe that their activities are of highly confidential nature, and should kept from the public. 1 •
The Torrlngton Incident Is not without precedent. Besides refusing to let "outsiders" look at the record of their
meetings, many boards doggedly refuse to allow any non-member to sit In on regular meetings. They do this In a coy' round-about way; they hold what they call "executive ses.slons." These sessions are nothing more than regular meetings under a different name. No one, other than members are permitted to sit In on the sessions.
Why In the world any public board should have anything to discuss which Is not directly pertinent to the Interests of the public Is something which we'll never know.
The News has been fortunate In that It has never had to go to the extreme that Mr. Donahue did to uphold his rights. The local Board of Education, and lOtljer similar groups here, fully realize the Importance of constantly Informing the public of their activities, The board realizes that Its Actions are not Its own business, but the business of the town, and who, after all, Is the town, but you and me?
We never need fear losing the right of Inspecting the activities of our public officials just as long as there are people like Editor Donahue among us.

Camp Hazen Popular Place
For Youngsters A comparatively little known en
terprise among the muiiy welfare programs for the youth of theState, Is that being carried on by the Connecticut Y.M.C.A.S' at Camp Hazen on Cedar Lake In Chester. Here each summer Jseveral hundred boys gather from all over Connecticut, making this the largest boys' camp In the State. The camp has been under the continuous leadership of the State Y.M.CA. Committee and Its Associate Executive since its organization In 1020.
The twenty-ninth season opens on June 20 and extends to August 20. Although Hazen Is a large liamp, the advantages of a smaller camp are not lost, according to Director A.S. I-Cnowles, because the camp Is In reality three camps In one, each quite separate from tlie others. The Senior Camp Is for boys of 14-10 years, the Mlddler Camp, for those aged 11-13, and the Junior Camp made up of boys o and 10 years.
Like many other activities of the Y.M.C.AJ, the privilege of enjoying Camp Hazen Is not limited to Y.M. C.A. members but is open to all boys within the required age limits and If properly vouched for as to character.

The Director of the Senior Camp Is Anthony Barbarito, Instructor. New Haven School System and Football Coach at Hlllhouse. This will bo Mr. Barbarlto's second year at Camp Hazen and his second year In charge of the Senior Camp.
The Director of the Mlddler Camp Is Gene Gardiner, Graduate student of Yale Divinity School.
The Director of the Junior Camp Is Tracy Redding, for 25 years Director of Boys' Work, New Haven Y.M,C.A., Professor at Yale Divinity School and Author and Conference leader.
Professor Frank Warren of the Springfield College Faculty is Di rector of Craft Program.
Larry Amann, Coach'of Swimming and Track Team at the Hartford High School, will be in charge of the waterfront. Including swimming, life saving, boating and canoeing.
Eaoh of the 25 tent houses in which the campers live accommodates eight- boys and one leader. The tent leaders are nearly all college, men employed for the full camp season, and are selected because of their unquestioned character and ability to guide boys in wholesome Uving.
As to program, the Hazen Committee believes tt)at the stereotyped program of some camps, given to all boys regardless of their individual differences, does not provide proper opportunity for developing character. At Hazen campers formulate- plans and carry out projects, under th'e.|riendly guidance of directors and tent leaders.
Besides the usual interesting capip activities of water sports (swimming, dlvhig, life saving, etc.) al|;kinds of athletics, wood, leather and metal work, nature trips, dramatics, council fires, etc., the camp fosters many original projects whlct) arise from the spontaneous Interests of the campers themselves. Hunting iOT turtles and frogs, building aiv aquarium, making a
[sail, boat or raft, building huts, making a model camp, sketching the sunset, having a discussion on boy problems, etc., are only a few of thehi.
Boys who arrive at camp without any special Interest, are helped to discover latent Interests and guided through their activities in developing initiative and self-reliance. Some campers have ideas of what they themselves want to do or car-' ry out. In this way, effort arising from interest produces a self-discipline which is believed more effective t)iai).one impo^d.'on the boy.

ODE TO MOTHERS DURfNG VACATrON TIME
Dear Editor, I would so like to see my scrip In print, I liope you are the type I want, and know to take a hint; I've tried my hand at babysitting, dishwashing and such. Translation as a byline, but I alnlt suceeded much.
I'd like to tell the mothers, I think it Is a shame Whenever anything goes wrong we are the ones to blame. Let It be understood that we—through bruises, nerves and yells, Collapse aind faint In sympathy of our dear old selves.
The time has come—vacation—the beaches need a rest. We mothers will take over, intentloning the best; But if we have been mothers forqulte a few years past, * We know what we are in for, and wonder can I last?
It seems as catching cobwebs and handleing a mop, Is nothing when compared'wlth making screaming children stop. And it Is. easier by far to make the windows shine, Than hold a squirming, kicking boy, applying Iodine.
I win admit It Isn't always quite the same routine. The babies do need changes, and food and vitamins And Junior needs scoldings like other little men, And has to be forgiven to start over once again.
The teenagers need catering according to their mood. We mothers walk on needles to do Just as we should. We are reminded dally, Remember act your age; And the faintest answer back can start a sudden flaming rage. Some people like vacation—and I may be a fool,
But I do like my blessings sedate and safe In school; And many sails will soar relieved when kids are trotting back In cusdody of Eddy, Tom and of our dear chief Mac.

Peony buds which failed to open may be suffering from botrytls blight. Spray weekly with Bordeaux mixture. Cut off and burn diseased buds and leaves to prevent spreading.
As rows of radishes, spinach and beets are cleared off, sow snapbeans or set out a few peppers or eggplant. Fuzzy-leafed plants such as African violets-and glaclan should remain on the porcli. Placing them In the garden will damage their foliage.
Pinch back the first buds of zinnias to make plants bushier and blossoms more numerous. In the larger-flowered varieties, the center blossom will be sacrificed by removal, but future blooms will grow In greater abundance and the plant win not require staking.
Never skimp on the size of the planting holes for balled trees or

They are tender annuals which means that the seed should not be sown until all fear of frost is gone. Tliey bloom profusely and the purple, red and yellow flowers give a vivid toucii to any garden.

The objection Is shown In this way; every time a h i t ball happens to land on tha t property the neighbor Immediately lakes possession of the hall, and absolutely refuses to give it back to the A.A, boys. Tliey have lost tt number of softballs In Just this same un fair manner, and during the sixth Inning of Sunday's game. In which the A.A.'s were leading 9-5, the game had to be called. They Just didn't have a ball left to fliiLsh the game out with, because the person keeping the balls from the boys had taken their last two du r ing ' the game alone.

BANDSMAN BY BILIi AHBBN
I For n faint moment tonight a hu.sh will descend on the vastness of
the Branford Oreen. Then out of the stillness which only a minute before was" an excited cacophony of sound, excited whispers and expectant murmurs, a leader's hand will drop and controlled sound will blanket the natives. FrSm the wild high pitched scroariis of the piccolo Mid clarinet through the rlvor-llke smoothness-of the strings,; from the regal notes of the trumpet to the bull beats of the sousaphone, the little world of Branford will respond, for the second time In' Its three Hundred years of civilized history, to the matchless tones of blg-tlmc uvchestratlon)Hhe United States Army Ground Force Band, • After the first Tew numbers, the overture and Introductory pieces,
forty men of varying heights and descendants of many natlonaltlcs, will step to the fore. There under the glare of the mazdos a slender youth will emulate the.leader of the band and not unlike the famed ToBcannlnl, will wave his honds and the beauty of blended male voices Will steal over the atmosphere. People will fldglt with expectancy and lill will marvel at the cqntrol In the slender fingers of the slight and vouthful conductor, his curly hair out of place. In all probability th(i applause v/lll be deafening when the famed Soldier's Chorus concludes Its rcpertorire tor the massed thousands will grow glad with the understanding that a Bronford boy led them.
In a bed, on Bradley Street, one of that boy's firm believers, will be reviewing the trials and hardships attendant to one of the night's Buooosses. The man wlil be seeing not only the crowd and the excited huzzahs but the lean yeitrs when the conductor was sawing away on his'flddle and the neighbors were complaining of the noise. In the quiet Df being alone, that father may brush aside a furtive tear to be happy when the lad Invades the house with news of his latest triumph and though the words may be left unsaid, the handshake will convey a moaning known only In the kinship of paternal and filial understanding, "Well done, Arthur, my son",
, It was with the Now Haven Institute of Music that Artliu"^ '^• D'onbfrlo got his first instruction In the art of crossing cat gut with horse- hair and making music. He know that because his father had d large family of'eight children, he could not afford to waste money on lesson^ and consequently he worked hard to overcome the novice un-s'ureness. ' ~ : \ • A few years'Passed and the Intrepid youngster, anxious for Individual Instruction sought New Haven's Harry Herman v/here he prospered both In muslolinshlp and In founding a sincere friendship. ' Once,III high'school, It was natural that Arthur would drift Into
band music for a two-fold purpose. He needed another Instrurnent to •tnake the entrance requirements of any music school and he naturally
' fancied to the C-cleffr anyhow. There under the stirring strains (mostly onthuslastio) of Ray Schlmmel's looters, he solved the Intrlcltles of the Boxttphonc. Then It-was only a natural step to the clarinet, called licorice stick by the followers of be-bop.
Practically on his ovyn ho won the Musical Art Scholarship award In Branford and gravitated to the New England Conservatory In Boston, There he used his penchant for making friends and the natural diligence, acquired by countless hours of music practice, to overcome hiany hardships and In due course he made his music degree.
scarcely had he looked around for lands to conquer, when the war burst upon, the horizon. He was assigned to the Carrlbean area and Puerto'Rico and used his ability to play Insttuments to relieve the routine,qf army drudgery, . ^f <,
Soon he was playlt\g accompaniment and leading small orchestras tor visiting U, S. O. stars. Among them was Bob Hope. One of his closest friendships made, among the visiting theatre folks was Jerry Colonna. ' \
- In the course of time, he was returned to this country where he became affiliated with the'.now famous Army Ground Forces Bond and Its leader Captain Chester E. Whiting of Maldeii Mass.,
The rest Is a matted of recent history. '' •< ' Yet thefe was a time not too many years ago whfjn Master Sgt.
Arthur V. Donofrlo, was'contemplating leaving the army. He had three inonths In which to make up his mind following his waf.- service and he onto'i-ed the New Haven Teacher's College, Intending) to work tm i* higher degree. His aptitude In music, plus his expork^nce won him 0. position conducting the,chorus of the Elm City teachUig Incubator.
Before the expiration of his time, young DPi-^ofrlo decided to return to the Ground Forces Band, probably aided Idi his decision by friends who saw an opportunity for the lad to estaTjllsh himself nationally by leading the male chorus. ,' »
•That ho has succeeded beyond any doubt can (be seen In the enlargement, of the Soldiers Chorus from the twenty tWe who sang here two years .'ago to the forty who will perform tonlg'flU The unit has become lin Integral part of the band's make u'p.

Loop Rivals Play Sunday In Branford
Thttrsday, Jvme, 23, 1949
Red-hot competition, the type which occurs only when two natural rivals meet, Is due at Hammer Field on Sunday afternoon when the Branford Townles meet the East Haven Reds In a Greater New Haven Leaguo contest.
The locals hold a decision in a practice tilt over the Easlles but It was a masterful pitching effort by John Manfolk which decided the Issue.
One change will probably be made In the Infield for the contest when Prank Ralola returns to his normal third base position. Another shake-up Is possible In the Inner works, persons close to the Branford' management • through this morning, but no oltlclal decision was forth coming.
Coach Joe Orsene has high hopes that the locals will blast Eastle pitching with some of the heavy hitting with which they set the league on fire for several weeks a season ago. To date, the hitting has not been conslstant.
More worrlcome than the hitting, however. Is the bugaboo of errors which have plagued the local nine Iti the three weeks of circuit play to date.
Eost Haven Is counting heavily on a tight defense and a possibility or air tight pitching to give it the advantage In the first of four scheduled lilts between the two rivals.

Circle Nine Ropes Locals In Lax Fray
Circle Nine set Its spuds Into the hopes of the Branford Townles last Sunday afternoon when It u.sed a wild Branford maverick Inning to corral the local ballplayers 10 to 7 In a regularly scheduled Greater New Haven bascbal league diamond tilt. <
Both teams gained three ru»3 apiece In the first frame as neither starter. Murphy )for the locals or Tlstro of the visitors could outlast the early assault. Two bases on balls and a single by Ken Newton gave the Brantordltesa 4-3 edge at the end of the > second but the visitors lashed out tor single runs In the third and. fourth to momentarily gain the lead until the locals fashioned a pair of counters In the final half of the fourth canto.
An Annie Oakley to Dickie Dolan and Steve Paulk's single gave the Orsenomen Its opening and Jackson cleared the sacks of all but himself to give Branford another brace of scores.,
A multitude of mlscues by the locals gave the Circle Nine Its big break In the subsequent Inning and the New Haveners made two hits pay ofl for a trto ot runs.
Thereafter the Elm City aggregation tacked on additional tallies in the seventh and ninth frames and held the localg'to single scores In the sixth and ninth to Ice the contest.
Outstanding In o relief effort for the visitors was coach Al Levi who gave up seven hits In Brantord's eight hit a.ssault. His charges combed both Murphy and Manfolk for thirteen blngles and made but two omissions In the field as against Brantord's five mistakes.
Pauk, Jackson, Newton and Marsh wore the heavy stickers In the local attack. Barbaro with three tor five was the spur to Brantord's hopes.

VIEWS, REVIEWS AND
PREVIEWS OF THE
EAST HAVEN SCENE
BY PAUL H. STEVENS
KRIKORIAN NAMED NEW JUDGE; REILLY DESIGNATED DEPUTY
PARTING IS SWEET SORROW
That is tlie way the poet cxpre.ssed it, ami it is the way we Teel as we sit down at the lypewrilei- to peck out our final bit of Strictly Local as your editor of the East Ila ven News.
It has been a joy edilinK » commiMiity weekly, a tusk we started hack in war-time on September 14, 1!)14, to fulfill a hobby. We Inive enjoyed almost every miuufe of tjie nearly five years which have elapsed up to this date, June 30, 1940, which has brought ns to Vol. 5, No. 43 ot this little weekly, which has come, we hope, to he a welcome visitor into so many of the honi es of our friends and neighbor.s.
Effective with tliis issue our cqnucetion with the Branford Review and Kast Haven News comes to a terminal,ion.
After this date allpaymenls for subscriptions to the News are to be paid directly to the Branford Rca'iew lile. at its offices in Branford, and any other business—.subscriptions, mailing changes, a'dv.ertising— and matters of communications or news—are lo, bo taken up directly with the Branford office.
We fee that as editor ot the News we have, as we expressed the hope in our initial issue five yai's ago, had a part in om- town's pro-gi'ani ot progress. We believe we have lived up to our pledge, given then, to promote projects beneficial to the town, lo aid in the creation ot a spirit of cooperation and cohesion among all our people, and the development of the connnon good.We have had no part in petty politics, in special privilege, or in that which might benefit any individual at the exi)ense of the conimunity. We asked then in return the support and well-wishes ot all, and we have received all this in good measure.
We are bapjiy in the great many friends we have nnwle in the community during,the years we have been editing yonr paper. We have thoroughly enjoyed our Saturday strolls along Mjiin Street. We have watched new stores and new places of business as they have developed in our growing shopping district. ^Ve have seen a fine spirit of cooperation develop among the merchants and business people which has just blossomed into the creation of a Clnunher of Com-nierce which W'e know will prove a great boom to onr town. Yes, these years of jnitting our hobby to work have been satisfying.
But it ha s bpen hard work too.. Carrying on week in and week out in our spare time has left us few tree evenings. I t has been a loiig'"time,'ifnce we have been able to sit down to, a meal without
_ beii'ig .<iUinmoii'ed once or more to the telephone. Aii'oditor is really a public servant and as such is on call most of the time.
'We have had our regular job lo do also and bobbies no matter bow enjoyable they aie, must not beeonn- so burdonsome that they encroach upon the regular work-aday tasks. Writing, we hope always to enjoy, but as w'e lay down our editorial tasks we will channel our typewriter into other directions.
We also hope to be able to utilize more time toward the furtherance of some ot the projects iu which we have become inceasingly interested, and to which we could not give the necessary time with dead-lines to be reached each week.
And so, as we conclude our pleasant duties as your editor, Wu say as did the poet, parting is sweet sorrow.

Bowles Appoints Local Attorneys To Town Bench

Gov. Chester Bowles yesterday announced the appointment ot nt-lorneys Armen K. Krlkoilnn and Thomas P. RelUy as Judges of East Haven's town-court. Mr. Krlkorlan receives the appointment ot Judge. Mr. Rcllly will serve as Deputy Judge. They are Included In the more Ihun 100 such Judgeship up
know htm by the promises he keeps.
As a housewlte, I was tremendously iuleresled In Governor Bowles' bold promises ot reducing the cost ol living while he was campaigning foi' election. I recall very clearly how he slumped up and down the Slate and over the radio with the broad claim that only he could solve the high cost of living problem and he promised faithfully to make this pi'oject the first order ot business alter his election.
Since becoming Governor, he has failed to even mention the cost ot living and that Is the sort of promise that the housewives will remember. I know that he won the support of many of our women In the State on the basis of that promise. He has not only failed to keep It; he has failed to even mention It.
I also remember that during his campaign he promised businesslike, economical administration. I have a direct quotation he made In referring to the report ot the 1947 Economy Committee which pointed out possible savings of $11,600,000. Governor Bowles .said "that sum would- be more than sufficient to cover the cost of every single program which I have proposed". It .Is quite significant that despite that promise made time and time again during the campaign, his budget proposals after election were the
become erfeotlvo tomorrow, July 1st. Both active In Democratic circles,
the Judges succeed present Incumbents Edward L. Reynolds and John J. Sullivan previously appointed In a Republican adnllnlstrallon.

Tlial historic July 4 fell on a Sunday and the patriots ot the Utile suburban vlllago on the cast shore of New Haven harbor had planned to celebrate the new nation's Independence, as this year, on Monday.

On Independence Day the men of war were sighted, sailing up the Sound, and that night, history and tradition says, a great beacon fire flamed its warning. Tliere was much excitement and confusion. Householders hurriedly packed their goods, their chattels and their fom llles and moved toward the wooded hills Inland Jn tlxu valley ot Foxon. The next day the BrllLsh ships had cast anchor and companies of Red-Coatcd Hessians began their descent upon East Haven burning and plundering as they came. •

In addition, he proposed to triple the tax for small business and to Increase the tax for incorporated business by one third. This overall Bowles' tax plan Is certainly in sharp contrast to his promises as a candidate.

Many features are being arranged Including rides and refreshment stands. Entertainment wlU be provided on Monday and Wednesday evenings by the prize-winning Bradford Manor Drum Corps.
GARDEN CLUB COMMITTEES
ARE NAMED Mrs. John E. Croumey, recently
Installed president ol the Garden Club of East Haven has announced the following committees for the coming year: Membership, Mrs. Carleton. Pratzner; Program, Mrs. John Barclay and Mrs. William Jaspers; Ways and Means, Mrs. Arthur Hahaway; Hospitality, Mrs. Leverett Clark; Horticultural, Mrs. Earl James; Constitution and bylaws, Mrs. John Tlrpak; Sunshine, Mrs. George Sullivan; Publicity, Mrs. Earle James and Mrs. Alvin Thompson; Telephone Squad, Mrs. Frank Lalne, Mrs. Paul Goss, Mrs. Russell Prank, Mrs. Elmer Morman, Mrs. 'Vincent Pogarty, Mrs. Clara Wright and Mrs. Fred Schulsky.
State with the State funds making up the difference in their rental. Now that he has gotten the publicity on this program, he has changed his plans and is supporting the Republican housing plan, including the elements of which he also was so critical during his campaign.
These are only a few of the promises which have not resulted in performance. I am sure that the citizens ot the Slate will use the comparison between promises and performances in Governor Bowles' record for their own opinion of his success or failure as an administrator.
