First Selectman, Leon G. Hall stated today that there probably would ' be no ‘“clean-up” day in town, due to the fact that t::e ap- ropriation of the funds was for re- :nlrvln‘ roads and that he did not feel that it was the right thing to spend town money on & general leanu rogram. . 3 He :ur';her stated that it condi- tions were such that it was neces- sary he would consider the matter, but that he was not in favor of the jdea. The roads are in poor condi- tion and all attention of the town teams should go to repairing the roads in preference to anything €lse, he said. He #tated that Berlin had a wnique situation in that two-thirds pt the roads were dirt roads and they needed much attention in the spring of the year. They must be scraped. The attention of the team gangs is centered on the few hard roads under the car of the town. These roads must be repaired each spring &s the frost causes great damage each year. Feeling that the highway department should spend its time working on the roads and spending the money that was appro- priated for this purpose, not on a cleanup program, which would take three or four days, Mr. Hall made 't clear that there would be no clean- up day. This has been the practice for the past few years and many people are depending on the ‘town teams to take rubbish away. * Aftend Ordination Mrs. Mayme O'Brien and her mother, Mrs. 8arah Dowling, attend- d the ceremonies at the ordination at St. Joseph's cathedral in Hart- ford today.
