DEADLOCK BROKEN Amityvllle School Board Finally Elect* Mrs. Hartman By a vote of 4 to 3 , the Amityvllle school board elected Mrs. Ernest F. Hartman president for the ensuing year. The presidency has been in doubt since the annual meeting of the Board of Education when the trustees failed to make a selection. De spite the belief that harmony would prevail , one of the first ques- tions brought up tor discussion re- sulted in a wrangle and the subse- quent defeat of the president' s plan to choose new committees. Trustees John B. Carswell , the Rev. Vedder Van Dyck , Louts H. Vogel and Mrs. Hartman voted for the suc- cessful candidate while Clinton Inglee K. Floyd-Jones Thome and Mrs. Arth- ur Burns cast their votes for Clinton Inglee. The defeated candidate Im- mediately moved to make the choice unanimous. As the fight waged about the ap- pointment of committees , a proced- ure that had been carried out at the last monthly meeting when the board tailed to agree on a chairman , Trus- tees Carswell and Inglee carried the standards for the apposing factions. Repeated pleas to get down to bus- iness availed but little. Finally a mo- tion to set aside the committees that had been functioning for past month and to adopt the old bylaws was brought to a vote and defeated. Con- tinued discussion on the topic brought forth the remark that he would not stand for a one-man rule of the board by T rustee Vogel. Part of the evening ' s business was devoted to discussing the advisability of obtaining liability insurance for teachers , clerks and janitors of the school. A committee comprised of Trustees Van Dyck and Carswell was appointed to investigate and report hack to the board. It was also decided to draw up a new set of by-laws. The committee chosen to do this work Is made up of Trustees Carswell , Vogel and Van Dyck. $750,000 FOR HIGHWAYS To Petition for Special Election for Brookhaven Bond Issue *r»*as e~^l' r ^t r *^ ' ~ -r * *- - -^^# r*->t Petitions are being circulated for signatures among taxpayers of Brook- haven town , calling upon the Town Clerk to call a special election for the purpose of placing before the taxpay- ers a proposition to bond the town for $750 ,000 to be spent in permanent cement highways and to be paid off In 10 yearly installments. As it is too late to place the proposition before vo ters at the regular town election In November , a special one will be nec- essary. Among the highways proposed for completion is the Roblnsonjj oulevard, East Patchogue , which is a two-mile \ cut-off\ between the Montauk Hlgh- .vuy at East Patchogue and Brook- haven, doing away with the winding drive through Bellport. Un- der the present plan of building new roads the town has been cementing one mile of the boulevard yearly. Un- der the new plan the remaining miles ot dirt on the boulevard would be cemented at once. Other highways scheduled to be cem ented through the $750 , 000 bond Issue are : Chicheste r avenue, Centre Mo riches , as far north as Manorville Middle Road , Blue Point to West Pat- chogue; Roe Boulevard from North Ocean avanue to Waverly avenue; Waverly avenue from Holtsville to the Centereach Road ; Terryvllle Road f rom the State Road; a highway around Lake Ronkonkoma; North Country Road and Lower Road, Po r t Jefferson; South street and Jones and Myrtle avenues , Port Jefferson; West Me adow Beach Park and a shore front drive at Stony Brook Harbor. May Condemn Property to Widen Road Residents of the Belle Crest section of Northport , are much disturbed over their Inability to get releases for (he p roper widening and opening of Hen- derson lane , which they claim Is nec- essary In order to give proper Are pro- tection tor that section. The lane has be come a public right-of-way through public use. It Is not , however , wide enough to make It safe for traffic. When a former highway superintend- ent started to cut brush on each side of the way, h o was stopped by an In- junction from owners of tho adjoin- ing pr operty. After failing to get re- leas e from property owners , applica- tion has been made to the Hunting- ton Town Board to commonco con- demnation proceedings. Southampton Reildent * Oppose Zoning The taxpayers of Southampton at a public hearing Inst Saturday opposed the plan of sonlng the town by a vote of 81 to 14 , but tho commission w ill soon hold another public hearing. The tentative regulations arranged by t he commlaslon prohibit the erection ot h o t els on the ocean beach within a roatr lotad area. A vote showed , tha t at wou ld permit the erection of hotel* anywhere on t h e beaoh , while 5 would have tha hotel district restricted to a point east of the former Gulliver prop. <rt y at Wiqkaporue and Lee aveniisa on t he west.

Why Foam Appears Whit e The fact that foam generally ap- pears white Is due to its being com- posed of tiny bubbles which reflect the light from their surfaces. When white light , such as sunlight , shines upon them , they therefore naturally appear white. Why Sun Changes Looks THANK YOU VERY MUCH !

School Board Deadlock at Amityvllle B roken; M rs. Hartman Wins Presidency Majority of taxpayer* Want to Incorporate Westhampton Beach Former Long Island Veteran Dies at St. Cloud , Fla. luall Makes Tri p To City in Corn Husk Somewhere up In the woods around raphank is a quail that enjoys the dis- taction of having been taken to the :lty and returned again to continue its lfe In the open or until some cruel pinner conies along and ends Its ca- reer during the open season tor quail. While picking corn recently B. Davis , ot Yaphank , with his brother , lames , noticed that one ear seemed larger than all the others. As nature Hen grows two cobs in the same Busk , he threw the ear to his brother to bag. That night the brothers drove to the city to dispose of their produce. One of their customers asked to in- spect the size of the ears ot corn so to prove that Yaphank grows the big- gest c orn In Suffolk , Davis pulled forth what he believed to be a double ear. The extraordiary sized ear when opened brought forth one ol this year ' s brood of quail that had hidden itself In the partly opened husk in the field. Regaining his surprised quail friend as it blinked under the electric lights of the markets, he placed the bird in- side his Jumper until he was certain that it was safe in his motor truck for tra nsportation back to Yaphank , re- calling that the open season on quail does not start until Nov. 1st. z Davis, upon reaching home, liberat- ed the quail , which despite Its nearly two-day absence from its home terri- tory, soon regained its sight dimmed by its confinement, and flew off to the same corn Seld where It was \ pluck- ed\ two night before. $1300, 000 Theatre for Amityvllle A variety theatre seating about 1 , 800 persons is to be built in Amityvllle.

To Incorporate Westhampton Beach Supervisor Halsey of Southampton Town , presided at the public hearing held Sunday afternoon in Mechanics ' Hail at Westhampton Beach on the application for a meeting to vote on the proposition to Incorporate an area of one square mile there. The hearing was attended by many of the largest taxpayers and repre- sentative residents ot Che village. The petition was signed by 51 per cent, of the taxable property owners of the area, which takes in the business section, the principal part of the resi- dential section and a part of the ocean beach. The pop ulation is about 450 and assessed valuation of the property is approximately $1 ,500, 000. Th ere Is so me opposition to the project.

A-delegation of village rep- resentatives appeared before the Town Board following the receipt of u recommendation from the Statu Health authorities , which found upon investigation, that a slight pollution of drinking water made the change Imperative. It was stated, however, that the water company had ordered a removal of the water wells from their old location to a new position be- fore the recommendation had been re- c eived. Now the wells will be placed along the lateral walks much farther re- moved from the ocean. By doing this a supply of wholesome water Is assured, say the company officials.
