MORRIS STBVE MUDGE _ Mudge Named To Armonk Town Board The two-month vacancy in. the North Castle Town Board was filled March 13 at Armonk by ap pointment of former Councilman Morris Steve Mudge of Banks- ville. In the 3-1 vote by the board, Mr. Mudge of Banksville Rd. nosed out John A. Lombardi of North White Plains. Immediately after the meeting Mr. Lombardi an nounced his intention to run for the board nomination in the pri mary. \I have no alternative,\ he said, stating he was the Republican Town Committee's recommenda tion for the position. Final deci sion, however, rests with the board. The night's vote was the second by the board to fill the gap creat ed by Paul Lehr whose retirement became effective Feb. 1. At that vote, the council deadlocked in a 2-2 vote. Referring to the deadlock in a prelude to his decisive vote, Super visor James R. Caruso pointed to the need of filling out the board. A vote of the majority of the board of five is necessary for approval \I feel that in the interest of the town it is required that we com plete this board,\ he said. He cast his vote the last ballot, \only - in a desire to complete this board.\ Voting with the supervisor were Councilmen Walter Wohlfeil and Joseph Manny of Armonk. The lone vote for Mr. Lombardi was cast by Frank Milvaney of North White Plains. \This is a distasteful thing again for me,\ noted Mr. Manny as he nominated Mr. Mudge. \In the first place I don't like to dis agree with the committee {town committee) and in the second place I don't want it construed as personality matter.\ Mr. Caruso was asked later if it were not practice for the Town Board to approve the recommend ation of the Town Committee. \Let's say it is traditional,\ he replied. Mr. Mudge, a public relations man\ served a four-year term on the board from 1949 to 1953. He retired in that year because of ihe, press of business*a'nd r was^placeci by Mr. Manny, who lives at Wind mill Farms.
