DANIELSON Voters Suspect Something in the Woodpile in Opera Chair Project for Town Hall—Annual Meeting of Sav- ings ‘Bank—100 Degrees 'Tuesday— | Social and Personal Items. The following petition was being ci culated Tuesday by William S. Brown: To the Selectmen: of the Town of Killingly: The undersigned inhabit- ants of the town of Killingly and qual- ified to vote in town meeting, hereby muke application and request that a special town meeting be convened for the following purposes: Will the town vote to instruct the selectmen to make no contract for pre viding the town hall with opera chair: Will the town vote to instruct the selectmen to rescind and cancel any coniract that may have been made to furnish and provide opera chairs or other chairs for the town hall? Will the town vote to instruct the selectmen to make no contract for any repairs or furnishings for tiie town hail until authorized to make such contract by the town in a meeting called for | that purpose. The petition is signed by Judge Mil- ton A. Shumway, Representative Frank P. Warren, John A. Paine, Frederick A. Jacobs, W. A, Johnson, C. A. Young, F. E. Bitgood, Gordon A. Johnstone, Dr. Rienzi Robinson, B. W. Scott, Jr, Kent Darbie, H. E. Anderson, E, C. Hop- kins, I D. Martin, Rowland R. James, S. Daniel- son, Charles E. Austin, C. A. Potter, Withington, L. J. Morin, George ton, Willilam H. Sayles, A. E. Meech, Joseph Farron, Percy Bliven, John W. Gallup, and others. The petition is inspired by opposition to what is looked upon as a plan to equip the town hall for theatrical use in competition with tax-paying theater properties and from the standpoint of economy in town expenditures. First Selectman John A. Gilbert said Tuesday that the selectmen had enter- ed into a contract for wnat are com- monly known as opera chairs. These, he said, are to be had at a cost of about 2500 for the number that will be need- ed. The present settees can be dispos- ed of at 40 cents a foot, so that the net cost of making the change would be about $350. Mr. Gilbert said that while the suggestion that the change be made came from a selectman who is not a resident of tae borough, he believed it a good plan to have the chairs. The present seats are clumsy and dificult to move about, and when it becomes necessary to clear the hall of them there is small opportunity te pack them so that they are not in the way.
