With about a -half-dozen firemen on board , a truck of Patchogue ' s • Van Guard Hose company was driven up to the Patchogue I'ailroad station bearin g a large sign , \Look.Out Hit- ler , . Here Come the Van Guards. \ The firemen were on hand to bid farewell to two of their fellow-mem- bers , Woodrow Wilson Lang and Ken- neth C. Sosinski , both of Cedar ave- nue , Patchogue. The departing group, incidentally, was seen off by the largest number of relatives and frien ds ever gath ered at the Patehogue station on such an occasion. More than 100 persons were present. The eighth quota brought to 106 the number of men sent off from Dis- trict 702 for military service.

Five of the 18 men were volunteers who expressed preferancnt tu go aliead on the draft: list , f ind two members of the quota filled iu as replacements for men rejected in the seventh quota sent off on March 17. Another mem- ber of the group, Robert Louis Par- rett of 10 West avrjnue , Patchogue , was the first volunteer-draftee , who did not have mi order number , because he did not roach his twenty-first b irth- day until after draft registration day last October.

Wilson , director of public relations , sent to • the County Board of Supervisors. • Mr- . - ' •Wilson ' s letter was read Mon- ' day. by Clerk Benjamin D. Blackman. - -at the meeting in Riverhead. . . ' \Regarding the possibl e importa- tion of aircraft workers from other sections of tlie state , this corporation wishes to inform you that we have 1 publicly and positively announced a ' plan to limit our factory employment • • to residents of Nassau and Suffolk ' ¦ counties for as long; a period as trained and satisfactory men are available , \ Mr. Wilson wrote. \We have every reason to believe that the. educ ational facilities in this area will be sufficient to meet our demands and those of other prihei- , jpa , l aircraft manufacturers , \ the -let- ter continued. \Our surveys indi- ; cate that there is a reserve of man- power anxious to work in the air- craft factories to , whom these em- ployment opportunities can be af- forded. \Wo therefore b«lieve any discus- sion of 'the possible importation of aircraft workers to this area to he and academic one , and we feel quite certain that the co-operative and public spirited a-t t i tu d e of such agencies as your Board , the State Employment Service and the State Department of Edu cation will readily insure that jobs in Nassau and Suit •folk counties will go to Nassau and Suffolk men for as long a period as qualified m«r. wish to apply for work . \ At the March 4 meeting of the County Board Supervisor . ' S.

Sharp of-Brookhaven town , who re- ported progress is being made on the proposed opening; of two aircraft training schools in the East End of the county, including one at Patch- og'ue. Supervisor Sharp, who is chairman of the board' s committee on aircraft training schools , said the first class of 100 men oeing trained in the old Fourth Avenue scho ol at Bay Shore has nearly completed the course and that an additional 100 men will be enrolled within ten days . He said the second floor of the school build- ing - is being equipped for classes. Another resolution introduced by Supervisor Sharp authorized Chair- man Everett C. Tuthdll to sign a lease for §1 a year for use of the Bay Shore school building with the sanction of the Boa I'd of Education in the village. At tlni same time the supervisors approved a resolution introduced by Superviso r S. Wentworth Horton of Southold town for the training of sliipyar.i worke rs in a large brick buildin g which the Village of Green- part hafl offered to provide;. ' Supervisor H orton cited the -$4 , - UOO-000 -contracts wh ich have been let by the Federal gov ernment for the construction of mine sweepers and ollxer ty pes of boats al tlie Greenport s-lnpynrds as demanding traaned work- ers. . Jh- suggested that the Greenport f. chool be maintained with the funds set up f«n- vocational schools and that the committee headed b y Supervisor Sharp act in a supervisory capacity. According; to Supervisor Horton the New York State. Department of Edu- ca tion and the federal government , t hrough the National Youth admini- s tration . , will co-operate in . maintain- ij) K the school. Hia resolution con- cluded with the provision that \this board will appropriate ' from time to time such sums as may be . necessary for the purposes of this.school , anil the same be pnid from fun ds already set up and known as the Suffolk Coun- ty Vocational school fund , and that said funds be disbursed b y the proper officers upon vouchers to lie approved by the members of the finance com- mittee or a majority thereof. \ A resolution introduced by Super- visor J. Augustu s Kilclreth of South- ampton provided foir the transfer . of $5>Q0 to the Farm and Home Bureau and the 4-H Club Association of Suf- folk Co . nnty \for purposes of giving manual instructions. \ Plans Are Comp leted Closin g Brookhaven Projects Department Rose and Mairray to Give Up Office Which Cared for Town ' s Share of \Many W. P. A. Operations Steps toward closing down the Brookhaven Town projects office -were taken by the Town board last week , -when a resolution was adopted dis-* continuir.g the employment of the two remaining m embers of the staff as of this Tuesday, April 1. The board also authorized Super- visor Edgar A. ' Sharp to close the office quarters on the same day. The two employees affected by the resolution are Arthur Murray of Cen- tereach , purchasing, agent , and Donald Rose of North Patchogue , office man- ager , both of -whom have been associ- ated with the office ever since it was -established to handle the purchasing of materials used for town-sponsored W. P. A. projects. The office quarters are on the second -floor of the Mills building in Patchogue. A comprehensive report on the ac- tivities of the o ffice , covering the 39 projects sponsored by the town during the past five years , will be filed short- ly with the Town board. The closing of the office was decided upon several weeks ago , due to the fact that all W. P. A. work in this section is being concentrated .at Camp Upton.
