wondering whom the Town Repub-
lican committee will endorse for
the otllce or deputy sheriff which
will be left vacant soon when Nel-
son “7. Benedict. newly appointed
highway supervisor. resigns. The
committee will hold a. meeting Mon¢
day night. it is expected that one
of the several candidates mentioned
{or the otllco will be selected.
“'ithout any doubt. the candidate
receiving the approval at the com-
mlttco will be awarded the "plum.”

making such appointments.
Probably. at all the candidates
who have been mentioned in con-
neetion with the deputy sheriflship.
the one most. likely to receive the
appointment is J. Edward Lycett.
Mr. Lycett is a member of. the “Old
Guard" and is active in the Fourth
District. Others who are mentioned
are George Lockwood and William
O'Dell. Although the name of Con-
stable John A. Mills was first men-
tioned, it is understood that he has
cxp.essed no desire for the appoint-
ment. .
The Republican, Town committee
is facing a. rather unusual predica-l
merit in making recommendation
for the deputy sheriflship. The ap-
pointee must be a man who is will-
ing to take care of the Bridgeport
end or the job instead of .the Nori
walk end: he must he a man who
is able to give part time to the ot-
fice. and yet not devote all his time
to the duties of the appointment.
Deputy Sheriff Edward B. Doulens.
who is the appointee in the Second
District. does about all of the work
in the city. serving nearly all the
legal papers. He devotes his entire
time to the job find obtains his en-
tire living‘ from it. The difficulty
is that there is not enough work in
Norwaik for two deputy sheriffs to
devote their entire time to it.
The candidates in the field look-
ing for Mr. Benedict's appointment
are wondering when he intends to
resign. As it happens. however. the
sherii! has the power to appoint as
many deputies as he may require
or desire so that the fact that Mr.
Benedict's resignation has not been
handed in. will not interfere with
the appointment of a new office-
holder. it is expected. however, that
Mr. Benedict will resign soon inas-
much as he has already entered
upon his duties as highway super-
visor. lie and Chester Nolen. for-
mer supervisor who has been ap-
pointed to a. more responsible posi-
tion in the State Highway depart-
ment. spent yesterday on an in-
spection tour or the roads 0! Fair-
field county. Mr. Benedict has been
presented with a. new automobile
by the state to use in connection
with his office.
