He announced he would actively seek the office immediately following the endorsement by the committee last week of the incumbent chairman, Philip V. Rokosa, for appointment as acting postmaster. Both DeLorenzo and Burns are elected members of the town committee, both from the First District. DeLorenzo has been a member for the last four years and Burns, who formerly served on the committee, was elected last week to fill a vacancy.

Coffee Hour Scheduled for Dimes Drive Southington Meeting Seeks Plan On Sewers SOUTHINGTON (Special) No action was taken by the town boards and consutling engineers Monday night on an overall program for extending the town's sanitary sewer system.

Finance Board member Albert Brunalli pressed for obtaining a cost estimate of a long range sewer program so that the Finance Board would know what it would be taxed with for the next three to five years. Brunalli said Southington is reaching the limit of its bonding capacity and it is important to have cost estimates of such a large expenditure for an over-all sewer program for the town. He noted that these costs had to be known for levying the tax rate. Dewey S. Blakeslee, chairman of the Sewer Board, reported that all thickly settled areas in the town have been studied for sewer extension projects, but added it was difficult to foresee which areas would become heavily populated in the future.

Brunalli opposed past methods in asking for funds, when the Sew. er Board would submit requests for, sewer work in one area at a time. After the two and one half hour discussion the Finance Board requested Town Finance Officer Raymond Kincaid to obtain cost figures on appropriations already granted to the Sewer Board for sewer trunk line installations. The board also requested Kincaid to include the $600,000 appropriation request of the Sewer Board for trunk line costs to the Meadowood and Berkley Plum Orchard area. The Finance Board tabled this request recently.

Attending the joint session were the Boards of Finance, Sewer Commissioners, Selectmen and consulting engineers from Metcalf and Eddy, Boston engineering firm, and Blair Associates of New Haven.
