WIDENWG DE
Contractors Putting on
Finishing Touches —
Working On South
Sidewalk
The widening of Washington
street is nearing, completion. The
work of cutting the street off on
both sides and the laying of the
brick pavement has been finished
The contractorsarc busy at the pres-
of the road that were torn up dur-
ing the widening.
The work of repairing the side‘-
walks on the south side of the street
is'under way. It is expected that
this work will take some time.
The entire street on the south side
has not been opened to traffic yet. as
the cement work has not had time
to set. It is thought that the street
on both sides will be open by the
end of this week.
There is some talk of enforcin
one way traffic on the street aft
the widening is completed and allow-
ing cars to park on both sides for a
limited time. This is being discuss-
ed in view of the .fact that the one-
way traffic plan has worked out very
well during while the work of wid-
ening was being done. The onoway
traffic plan seems to have also met
with the approval of a. majority of
the merchants of the street.

committee of the Fairfield County,
Bar association had charged him
with alleged misappropriation of

Judge John W. Banks in Superior

Attorneys Sanford Stoddard.

Genuario was on the stand a short
time only. He introduced letters
from omclals of the Guaranty com—
pany who recommended' him as
“honest. conscientious and trust-
worthy."
Would Hear Everything
Attorney Shannon argued that the
scope of the examination should be
confined exclusively to Genuarlo's
conduct subsequent to his suspen-
sion two years ago. .
For whatever wrongs he may have
been guilty of prior to that time, it
was stated. he had once been tried
and punished. Therefore. the Min 6!
the present hearing should only be
to determine whether. during the
last two years; Genuario’s conduct
has been commendable enough to in-
dicate a. reformation which would
justify reinstatement. as he claimed.

ADDITION TO
Informal Meeting Of
V S’c h 0 01 Committee
Shows Lack Of
Funds For Full Pro
gram
Is the need of a. junior high school
in the First or Third districts great-
er than the need of a substantial ud-
ditlon to the senior high? This is
the question which will confront the
Joint School Building committee
composed of Board of Education and
Common Council members at a meet-
ing ca. led for Thursday night.
The meeting.was= scheduled for
last night, but because notices of
the meeting were sent out too late.
it was necessary to adjourn the
meeting until Thursday night. But
there was an informal meeting of
tho members of the sub-committee
with Architects Bissel and Jackson.
At this session, a. resolution ask-
ing the Joint School comittee to re-
ject all the contractors‘ bids on the
new school buildings was unanimous-
ly adopted. In addition. many
changes in the specifications and
plans of the new buildings were
made to save considerable money.
In spite of these changes. how-
_ ”an”. it was lawsuit that these
. would not be enough money
left
over after constructing the East
Norwalk Junior High; the Center
Junior High, Broad River school and
the addition to the “Washington
school to construct the proposed ad-
dition to th senior high school.
When the lid issue was originally
brought before the people it was
pointed out that one of the greatest
of outstanding needs in the school
system was for more room in the
senior high school. '
Only recently, it was pointed out
by school authorities that the senior
high school was crowded to capa-
city. It is understood that the money
which will probably be left over af-
ter the new buildings are completed
will not be more than enough to
make four rooms out of the high
school auditorium. This will mean
that the high school, will be without
an auditorium which is used today
for community meetings'fio a great
extent. The only other alternative
left. will be to have two sessions of
the senior NET: school for the next
two years until another school bond
issue can be asked for from the state
legislature.
There is every possibility. it is un-
derstood. that civic organizations 5in-
telested in the school needs may ape
pear before the Joint School com—
mittee Thursday" night to ascertain
definitely what the greatest need is
in Norwalk school system: a. new
junior high school or an addition to
the senior 1gb school. It appeats
that either one plan or the other may
be abandoned because of lack of
funds.
The. changes suggested in the
specifications last night consirted of
slashing one corner of! the East
Nor-walk Junior High and the Cen-
ter Junior High. This change will
make each of these buildings consist
of 12 rooms: four of the rooms be-
ing on the ground floor or basement.
The Broad River building plans re-
mained the same except for certain
changes in the trim.

fumes of which, the commissioner
held, are very pdisonous. only t.
