PEAR TREE POINT utilitarian
FINAL mom PROJECT ‘AWAITS

 

Town Meeting May Be Called Toward End of

This Month-Hope

to Fill in Lagoon This

Summer—Garage Man Burned By Torch

 

No further move has been made as
yet on the work of rebuilding the
Pear Tree Point property. The start
is held up awaiting final action of
the Town. While it is hoped to get
the filling ill of the lagoon finishtrl
this late sulnme'r, nothing as yet can
be done. First the Finance Board
must. meet and appropriate the me-
will!!! money. and this action must
come fora final review before a
Town meeting.

Contrary to belief, the last town
meeting only 0. K'd tho report of
the committee. but did not author-
ize the expenditure of the money. It
is possible that another Town meet-
ing will be called toward the end of
this months to take up the matter.

The plans are to have the lagoon
and the town dump covered with
hydraulic fill this year. and to build
the new bathing pavilion in 1926.

No announcement has been made
as yet by the Police Commissioners
as to the Chief OP Police for the new
Darlen force. Although persistent ru-
mor has it that Sergeant Harry
Smith of Stamford is to be named. it
is also said that James Flanagan of
Bridgeport is being groomed for the
job.

Sergeant Smith. who has served on
the Stamford force for 26 years.
could have retired last year had he
wished to do so. He can now retire

 

on pension and take the Darien post.
Lending color to. the belief that he
is to be named for the Darien posi-
tion is the récent announcement by
the Stamford Chief of Police that
Sergeant Smith has been allowed a

diately.

The power of the Town Plan Com.
mission was shown in the discusslon
of the new high school proposition
and the purchase of a site, when it
was brought out that the recommen-
dation of the School Committee and
the authorization of the Finance
Board and the Town meeting would
not be enough to pass the matter
without the sanction of the Town
Plan Commission. This body must
put its approval on all new public
buildings and sites before they can

Harbor View a great community. and
continuing this way. we can make

ly returned residents. The ceiling has
been roofed over. rafters covered,
and new lighting arrangements with

ly gathered that the man in question

 

Steurcr, known as 'Dot‘ because of

always glad to take over any com-
mittee work. as it became a. pleas-
ure because. of the fullest coopera-
tion that he always received from
everyone.

A good start had been made in the
sale of season tickets. and he urged
the residents to attend the early
lunctlons of the season.

"The season is only ten weeks long
nnd‘lt always seems to fly past—at
least. it does to me. if you .don't
come out and meet all the other
neighbors in the first week or two—-
then you don't get out to know them
before the summer's over."

Mr. Stourer also announced for
Mrs. Hyde. the hostesses of the tea
