\HOME RULE\ FOR THE TOWN PRIMARIES The Republicans of Each Town Will Decide How Nominations Shall Be Made As in the Past—Supervisor J. C. Robbinc ' Renomina- tion Is Favored. 5 ' The controversy over changing the rules of the Republican County Com- mittee practically ended last Satur- day, when a resolution offered by Raymond A. Smith , of East Hamp- ton , w»* adop ted which provided that >own nominators by the party shall be made in the same manner as here- tofore or as the members of the County Committee in a town , or the town committee may provide. This is exactly as it wao under the old rules. The attempt to crab control if the town conventions and pri- maries was a complete fizzle. It is said that when the committee met last Saturday ore or two of those who tried to gag the town conven- tions stood alone. The advocates of the plan nlet with a crushing defeat and when the resolution offered by Mr. Smith was finall y put , to a vots no one voted against it. Congressman Robert L. Bacon has been honored by an appointment as a commissioner to represent the Fed- eral Government at the celebration of the 150th anniversary of the Bat- tie of Bunker Hill. The commemora- tion exorcises will lie held some tim» in the middle of June. B y act of Congress upecial 50-cent pieces in commemoration of this anniversary will be struck off by the U . S. Mint. Supervisor John Clinton Kobbins , ¦ >f Babylon , will he rer animated if he so desires. That is the opfnion of prominent Republican leaders in tha t town. Mr. Robbins \ has Heen in ill health for some time , which fact oc- casioned some speculation as to who the Republicans would name to head their ticket. Now , however , Mr. Rob- bins is very much better and is at- tending to his official duties » prOmptry. It is believed to be entirely up to him as to a renomination and it is a safe bet that if nominated he will be re- elected , for he is considered a most japablo official. Should he decline to make Ihe race again there is talk of {F rederick -T. \ Wood, who has been act- ing supei visor , pelting' into the race. Joseph P. Vi ' arta , of Lindenhurst , is also said to have his eye on the job. Ex-Sheriff f) , Henry Brown re- turned on Wednesday from a trip to Miami . Fla. He was accompanied to that Southern resort by his son , Harry S. Brown , of Manhattan. County Clerk Fred S. Pulver . a past grand chief ranger of the For- esters of America , and Miss Anna Poth , supreme secretary of the Com- panions of the Forest, led the grand march at the annual fancy dress ball of the Amalgamated Courts and Cir- cles Ball association , of Brooklyn , which was hel d at Prospect Hall , on Saturday evening. They were also Judges of the costumes worn by the dancers , prizes amounting to $125 in cash being awarded.

IT'S TO YOUR ADVANTAGE y TO TRADE IN COUNTY V / Til RETURN Til HWrWi BAYS Three of the Seven Members of the Board of Education Voted in Favor of Extending Mr^ McCall an Invitation to Return , But Four Voted in the Negative—Several Teachers Have Declined InVitations. . His opposition to the Ku Klux Klan JS reported* to be the reason that Charles McCall was not given an in- vitation to return as principal of the Hampton Bays public school next •year. Three of the seven members of the board of education voted to ask Prircipal McCall to return and the other four members voted in the negative. H v has made an exception- ally efficient principal , and is verv popular with the teachers and the pupils. He is described by a promi- nent resident of Hampton Bays as being a man of strong character , the h ighest integrity, of very liberal views and not afraid to express jiis convictions^ .. _ — Mr, McGall has been princi pal of the Hampton Bays school for tw. > years and his rejection has caused quite a sensation there , the sentiment _ being warked_up_ to _a_ h igh pitch in some quarters. ^ _ _ Fornier Pi-Sfmasfif firorge \ D. Squires , who has \been a member of the Board of Education for 32 years and presidert for 31 years , is under- stood to be one of the three members who voted to extend Principal Mc- Call an invitation to return. Besides President ' Squires , the other members of the Board are Mrs. Addie Tiede- man , Donald Penny, Oscar Squires , Fred Caffrey, Reginald Tuthill and Joseph Remlein. Five of the teachers in the school, who have declined invitations to teach there next year , are the Misses Gertrude , and Edith Weller , Miss Martha Jackson , Miss Holze and Miss Henrietta- Jackson. , The reason why some of them, 'if not all of them , de- clined , is said to be due to the atti- tude manifested by a majority of the Board of Education toward Principal McCall . Principal Frank Wangler , of Greenport, has been crgaged as Mr. AlcCall' s successor. Mr. McCall was the principal of the East Marion school before he accented the pritici- palship of the Hampto n Bays school. His home is near Buffalo.
